摘要: 目的 探讨红细胞储存损伤释放的游离血红素在创伤-失血性休克小鼠模型中,通过内质网应激(ERS)诱导中性粒细胞胞外诱捕网形成(NETosis)加重炎症反应的机制,进一步评估ERS抑制对NETosis及相关信号通路蛋白表达的干预效果。方法 本研究采用创伤-失血性休克小鼠模型,实验分组包括假手术组、新鲜红细胞悬液复苏组、储存损伤红细胞复苏组以及游离血红素+ERS抑制组,每组10只。对各组体温、血压和病理组织进行评估,并检测外周血中中性粒细胞弹性蛋白酶(NE)阳性细胞和髓过氧化物酶(MPO)阳性细胞的比例。蛋白免疫印迹法(Western Blot)用于检测蛋白激酶R样内质网激酶(PERK)、真核翻译起始因子2α(eIF2α)和激活转录因子4(ATF4)蛋白表达水平。采用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)检测血浆游离血红素、MPO-DNA复合物和炎症因子白细胞介素1β(IL-1β)、肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)、白细胞介素6(IL-6)浓度,采用PicoGreen荧光染料法测定细胞外DNA水平。结果 与假手术组相比,储存损伤红细胞复苏组小鼠体温和血压显著降低(P<0.01),ERS相关蛋白PERK、eIF2α和ATF4的表达水平显著增高(P均<0.01),血清中IL-1β、TNF-α和IL-6等炎症因子浓度及血浆游离血红素水平升高(P均<0.01),外周血中NE和MPO阳性细胞比例显著增高(P<0.01),MPO-DNA复合物和细胞外DNA水平显著升高(P<0.01)。与储存损伤红细胞复苏组相比,新鲜红细胞悬液复苏组和游离血红素+ERS抑制组小鼠体温和血压明显升高(P<0.05),ERS相关蛋白PERK、eIF2α和ATF4的表达水平显著降低(P均<0.01),血清中IL-1β、TNF-α和IL-6等炎症因子浓度及血浆游离血红素水平降低(P均<0.01),外周血中NE和MPO阳性细胞比例显著降低(P<0.01),MPO-DNA复合物和细胞外DNA水平显著下降(P<0.01)。与新鲜红细胞悬液复苏组相比,游离血红素+ERS抑制组小鼠体温和血压、ERS相关蛋白PERK、eIF2α和ATF4的表达水平、血清中IL-1β、TNF-α和IL-6等炎症因子浓度及血浆游离血红素水平、外周血中NE和MPO阳性细胞比例、MPO-DNA复合物和细胞外DNA水平均无显著性差异。病理显示储存损伤红细胞复苏组器官炎症和细胞凋亡显著,而其他组较轻微。结论 红细胞储存损伤释放的游离血红素在创伤-失血性休克过程中发挥关键作用,可通过诱导ERS显著加剧NETosis和炎症反应。ERS干预能够有效阻断游离血红素的这一效应,减轻NETosis、降低炎症因子IL-1β、TNF-α和IL-6浓度及游离血红素水平,并抑制PERK/eIF2α/ATF4信号通路的激活。这为靶向游离血红素-ERS-NETosis轴治疗创伤-失血性休克中的炎性损伤提供了重要的实验依据和潜在新策略。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the mechanism by which free heme released from stored red blood cells exacerbates the inflammatory response through endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-induced neutrophil extracellular trap formation (NETosis) in a mouse model of trauma-hemorrhagic shock, and further to assess the intervention effect of ERS inhibition on NETosis and the expression of related signaling pathway proteins. Methods This study employed a trauma-hemorrhagic shock mouse model with experimental groups including sham operation group, fresh red blood cell suspension resuscitation group, storage-damaged red blood cell resuscitation group, and free heme+ERS inhibition group, with 10 mice in each group. Body temperature, blood pressure, and pathological tissues were evaluated in each group, and the proportions of neutrophil elastase (NE) positive cells and myeloperoxidase (MPO) positive cells in peripheral blood were detected. Western Blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK), eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α (eIF2α), and activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect plasma free heme, MPO-DNA complexes, and inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentrations. PicoGreen fluorescent dye method was used to determine extracellular DNA levels. Results Compared with the sham surgery group, mice in the stored damaged red blood cell resuscitation group showed significantly decreased body temperature and blood pressure (P<0.01), significantly increased expression levels of ERS-related proteins PERK, eIF2α and ATF4 (all P<0.01), elevated concentrations of inflammatory factors IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 in serum and increased plasma free heme levels (all P<0.01), significantly increased proportions of NE and MPO positive cells in peripheral blood (P<0.01), and significantly elevated MPO-DNA complex and extracellular DNA levels (P<0.01). Compared with the stored damaged red blood cell resuscitation group, mice in the fresh red blood cell suspension resuscitation group and the free heme+ERS inhibition group showed significantly increased body temperature and blood pressure (P<0.05), significantly decreased expression levels of ERS-related proteins PERK, eIF2α and ATF4 (all P<0.01), reduced concentrations of inflammatory factors IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 in serum and decreased plasma free heme levels (all P<0.01), significantly reduced proportions of NE and MPO positive cells in peripheral blood (P<0.01), and significantly decreased MPO-DNA complex and extracellular DNA levels (P<0.01). Compared with the fresh red blood cell suspension resuscitation group, there were no significant differences in body temperature and blood pressure, expression levels of ERS-related proteins PERK, eIF2α and ATF4, concentrations of inflammatory factors IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 in serum and plasma free heme levels, proportions of NE and MPO positive cells in peripheral blood, and MPO-DNA complex and extracellular DNA levels in the free heme+ERS inhibition group mice. Pathological examination showed that organ inflammation and cell apoptosis were significant in the stored damaged red blood cell resuscitation group, while they were relatively mild in other groups. Conclusion Free heme released from red blood cell storage lesions plays a crucial role in trauma-hemorrhagic shock by significantly exacerbating NETosis and inflammatory responses through the induction of ERS. ERS intervention can effectively block this effect of free heme, reducing NETosis, decreasing levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6, as well as free heme levels, and inhibiting the activation of the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4 signaling pathway. This provides important experimental evidence and potential new strategies for targeting the free heme-ERS-NETosis axis in the treatment of inflammatory injury in trauma-hemorrhagic shock.
