Acute lung injury (ALI) is an acute and progressive pulmonary inflammatory disease that is difficult to cure and has a poor prognosis. Macrophages, which have various phenotypes and diverse functions, play an essential role in the pathogenesis of ALI. Grape seed proanthocyanidin (GSP) has received much attention over several decades, and many biological activities such as anti-apoptotic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory have been identified. This study aimed to determine the effect of GSP on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI. In this study, we established an ALI mouse model by tracheal instillation of LPS, and by pre-injection of GSP into mice to examine the effect of GSP on the ALI mouse model. Using H&E staining, flow cytometry, and ELISA, we found that GSP attenuated LPS-induced lung pathological changes and decreased inflammatory cytokine expression in ALI mice. In addition, GSP reduced the recruitment of monocyte-derived macrophages to the lung and significantly promoted the polarization of primary mouse lung macrophages from M1 to M2a induced by LPS. In vitro, GSP also decreased the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and M1 macrophage marker iNOS induced by LPS in MH-S cells, while increasing the expression levels of M2a macrophage marker CD206. Bioinformatics analysis identified TREM2 and the PI3K/Akt pathway as candidate targets and signaling pathways that regulate M1/M2a macrophage polarization in ALI, respectively. Furthermore, GSP activated PI3K/Akt and increased TREM2 expression in vivo and in vitro. Meanwhile, GSP's impact on M2a polarization and inflammation suppression was attenuated by the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 or siRNA knockdown TREM2. In addition, GSP-enhanced PI3K/Akt activity was prevented by TREM2 siRNA. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that GSP could ameliorate LPS-induced ALI by modulating macrophage polarization from M1 to M2a via the TREM2/PI3K/Akt pathway.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008070 Lipopolysaccharides Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans
D008168 Lung Either of the pair of organs occupying the cavity of the thorax that effect the aeration of the blood. Lungs
D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine

D034741 RNA, Small Interfering Small double-stranded, non-protein coding RNAs (21-31 nucleotides) involved in GENE SILENCING functions, especially RNA INTERFERENCE (RNAi). Endogenously, siRNAs are generated from dsRNAs (RNA, DOUBLE-STRANDED) by the same ribonuclease, Dicer, that generates miRNAs (MICRORNAS). The perfect match of the siRNAs' antisense strand to their target RNAs mediates RNAi by siRNA-guided RNA cleavage. siRNAs fall into different classes including trans-acting siRNA (tasiRNA), repeat-associated RNA (rasiRNA), small-scan RNA (scnRNA), and Piwi protein-interacting RNA (piRNA) and have different specific gene silencing functions.
