Resveratrol ameliorates intestinal barrier defects and inflammation in colitic mice and intestinal cells.
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry 2018 November 15
This study is aimed to investigate the ameliorative effect of resveratrol in a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis mouse model and intestinal Caco-2 cells, focusing on neutrophil infiltration and tight junction (TJ) barriers. DSS administration caused body weight loss (day8, control 104±1, DSS 72±2 % , p<0.05), shortening of colon length (control 5.1±0.1, DSS 3.8±0.1 cm, p<0.05), pro-inflammatory cytokines increase-including interleukin (IL)-1β (control 1.0±0.2, DSS 58.5±29.6 arbitrary unit (AU), p<0.05), IL-6 (control 1.0±0.3, DSS 312±82 AU, p<0.05), and chemokine motif ligand 2 (CXCL-2, a murine IL-8 homolog, control 1.0±0.4, DSS 696±262 AU, p<0.05), decreased TJ proteins (e.g. occludin, control 1.0±0.05, DSS 0.11±0.03 AU, p<0.05) and neutrophil infiltration (control 1.2±0.2, DSS 25.9±1.1 cells, p<0.05). Supplemental resveratrol (0.1% (w/w) in the diet) partially or totally reversed these symptoms (body weight change 100±1, colon length 4.6±0.1; IL-1β 5.9±1.8, IL-6 10±3, CXCL-2 14±7, occludin 0.76±0.06, neutrophil infiltration 9.3±0.7, p<0.05). Pretreatment of intestinal Caco-2 cells with resveratrol suppressed the TNF-α-induced production of IL-8 (control 1.00±0.04, TNFα 3.40±0.16, TNFα+Res 1.81±0.28 AU, p<0.05) and phosphorylation of the inflammatory signaling molecules including NF-κB, extracellular signal-regulated kinase and stress c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase. Collectively, the reduction of TJ barrier defect and IL-8 in intestinal cells, leading to reduced neutrophil infiltration into colonic tissues, appears to be one of the central mechanisms for the resveratrol-mediated effect.
