Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Expression of NAD(P)H:Quinone Oxidoreductase 1 and Heme Oxygenase-1 Protects against Excessive Inflammatory Responses in Human Monocytes
Open accessAbstract
Monocytes play a central role in the immunopathological effects of sepsis. This role is mediated by production of the cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β. The transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates innate immune responses in various experimental disease models. Presently, the role of Nrf2-regulated genes in LPS-treated human monocytes is not well defined. Herein we show that Nrf2 mediates a significant regulation of LPS-induced inflammatory responses. Analysis of Nrf2-regulated gene expression in human monocytes showed that LPS induced the expression of the phase II detoxification gene NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1). Furthermore, NQO1 mRNA or protein expression in response to LPS was regulated by Nrf2. Silencing Nrf2 expression in human monocytes inhibited LPS-induced NQO1 expression; however, in contrast, it significantly increased TNF and IL-1β production. Silencing expression of NQO1 alone, or in combination with heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) silencing, markedly increased LPS-induced TNF and IL-1β expression. Additionally, overexpression of NQO1 and/or HO-1 inhibited LPS-induced TNF and IL-1β expression. These results show for the first time that LPS induces NQO1 and HO-1 expression in human monocytes via Nrf2 to modulate their inflammatory responsiveness, thus providing novel potential therapeutic strategies for the treatment of sepsis.

“Nrf2 plays a role in regulating the anti-inflammatory response through redox control and activation of ARE-mediated anti-inflammatory genes, including the expression of the antioxidant genes NQO1, HO-1, and PRX1, all of which exhibit anti-inflammatory effects [191,192,193,194].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
