خلاصه انگلیسی

Microglial cells coordinate immune responses in the central nervous system. Carvedilol (CVL) is a non-selective β-blocker with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects. This study aims to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects and the underlying mechanisms of CVL on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in microglial BV2 cells. BV2 cells were stimulated with LPS, and the protective effects of CVL were investigated via measurement of cell viability, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and interleukin (IL)-1β liberation. The protein levels of some inflammatory cascade, Notch, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ pathways and relative markers of M1/M2 microglial phenotypes were assessed. Neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were cultured with a BV2-conditioned medium (CM), and the capacity of CVL to protect cell viability was evaluated. CVL displayed a protective effect against LPS stress through reducing ROS and down-regulating of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) p65, NLR family pyrin domain containing-3 (NLRP3), and IL-1β proteins. LPS treatment significantly increased the levels of the M1 microglial marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and M1-associated cleaved-NOTCH1 and hairy and enhancer of split-1 (HES1) proteins. Conversely, LPS treatment reduced the levels of the M2 marker arginase-1 (Arg-1) and PPAR-γ proteins. CVL pre-treatment reduced the protein levels of iNOS, cleaved-NOTCH1, and HES1, while increased Arg-1 and PPAR-γ. CM of CVL-primed BV2 cells significantly improved SH-SY5Y cell viability as compared with the LPS-induced cells. CVL suppressed ROS production and alleviated the expression of inflammatory markers in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells. Our results demonstrated that targeting Notch and PPAR-γ pathways as well as directing BV2 cell polarization toward the M2 phenotype may provide a therapeutic strategy to suppress neuroinflammation by CVL.
