TAK-3 Inhibits Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Neuroinflammation in Traumatic Brain Injury Rats Through the TLR-4/NF-κB Pathway.
PURPOSE: The activation of the inflammatory response is regarded as a pivotal factor in the pathogenesis of TBI. Central nervous system infection often leads to the exacerbation of neuroinflammation following TBI, primarily caused by Gram-negative bacteria. This study aims to elucidate the effects of the novel anti-inflammatory drug TAK-3 on LPS-induced neuroinflammation in TBI rats.
METHODS: In conjunction with the rat controlled cortical impact model, we administered local injections of Lipopolysaccharide to the impact site. Subsequently, interventions were implemented through intraperitoneal injections of TAK-3 and NF-κB activitor2 to modulate the TLR4/NF-κB axis The impact of LPS on neurological function was assessed using mNSS, open field test, and brain water content measurement. Inflammatory markers, including TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 were assessed to evaluate the condition of neuritis by Elisa. The activation of the TLR-4/NF-κB signaling pathway was detected by immunofluorescence staining and Western blot to assess the anti-inflammatory effects of TAK-3.
RESULTS: The administration of LPS exacerbated neurological damage in rats with TBI, as evidenced by a reduction in motor activity and an increase in anxiety-like behavior. Furthermore, LPS induced disruption of the blood-brain barrier integrity and facilitated the development of brain edema. The activation of microglia and astrocytes by LPS at the cellular and molecular levels has been demonstrated to induce a significant upregulation of neuroinflammatory factors. The injection of TAK-3 attenuated the neuroinflammatory response induced by LPS.
CONCLUSION: The present study highlights the exacerbating effects of LPS on neuroinflammation in TBI through activation of the TLR-4/NF-κB signaling pathway. TAK-3 can modulate the activity of this signaling axis, thereby attenuating neuroinflammation and ultimately reducing brain tissue damage.
