Abstract:
:Acute lung injury (ALI) is one of the most serious complications in critically ill patients which often leads to morbidity and mortality. ALI characterized by severe inflammation of lungs occurs due to uncontrolled inflammatory immune response. However, the immunological mechanism(s) are far from being understood. The spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK), a key component of immune receptor signaling, plays a critical role in the modulation of inflammatory signaling in different immune cells. However, its role in ALI remains to be explored. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effect of R406, a SYK inhibitor in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mouse model. LPS led to increased SYK expression in neutrophils and gamma delta (γδ) T cells. This was associated with increased neutrophilic airway inflammation, vascular permeability, myeloperoxidase activity in the lung with upregulated expression of NADPH oxidase (NOX2)/MCP-1/TNF-α in neutrophils and IL-17A in γδ T cells/lung. Pulmonary inflammation was associated with higher mortality in mice with ALI. Inhibition of SYK signaling using R406 in the lung led to blockade of neutrophilic airway inflammation, vascular permeability, pro-inflammatory cytokine release and oxidative stress in innate immune cells, i.e. γδ T cells and neutrophils and the lung. R406 administered LPS group had better survival rate than LPS group. This suggests that SYK upregulation in γδ T cells and neutrophils plays an important role in inflammatory process during ALI. In conclusion, R406 exhibited a great potential to block the LPS-induced airway inflammation and mortality which could be developed as a potential future therapy in ALI.
