Dihydromyricetin ameliorates vascular endothelial damage by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activity through Sirtuin 3
To investigate the inhibitory effects and mechanism of dihydromyricetin (DHM) on the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and improvement of palmitic acid induced injury in vascular endothelial cells through Sirtuin 3(Sirt3).
Methods
2
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with palmitic acid (200 μmol/L) to establish an inflammatory injury model
which was subsequently intervened with different concentrations of DHM (10
20 and 40 μmol/L).Cell viability
LDH release level and expression of endothelial cell adhesion factors were detected respectively.qRT-PCR and Western blotting were used to measure the mRNA and protein levels of cytokines related to NLRP3 inflammasome activation.The regulatory effects of DHM on mitochondrial function of endothelial cells were determined by Seahorse Extracellular Flux Platform and mitochondrial membrane potential assay.Moreover
Sirt3-specific inhibitor 3-TYP (50 μmol/L) and Sirt3 overexpression plasmid were adopted to explore the role of Sirt3 in DHM inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome induced by palmitic acid.
Results
2
DHM significantly inhibited the decline in cell viability
release of LDH
and secretion of endothelial cell adhesion factors ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 induced by palmitic acid (
P
<
0.05).Moreover
DHM remarkably improved the decrease of oxygen consumption for mitochondrial respiratory activity
enhanced ATP production and residual respiratory capacity
and suppressed the elevation of mitochondrial membrane potential (
P
<
0.05).Meanwhile
DHM also suppressed the mRNA and protein levels of NLRP3
IL-18 and ASC induced by palmitic acid (
P
<
0.05).Sirt3 overexpression enhanced the above effects of DHM
while the Sirt3 inhibitor 3-TYP obviously attenuated these effects.
Conclusion
2
DHM maintains mitochondrial metabolism of endothelial cells by activating Sirt3
inhibits the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome
and thus alleviates the inflammatory damage in HUVECs.
