Baicalein mitigates time-dependent colonic barrier injury in mice after high-intensity exercise in hot and humid environment by inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammation:A study on intervention dosage and critical time window
摘要
Abstract
Objective This study aims to clarify the characteristics and temporal patterns of colonic barrier damage in mice following a single simulated high-intensity exercise in hot and humid environment,and further investigate the protective effects of baicalein(BAI)intervention on colonic injury,thereby providing experimental evidence for the development of medical protection time windows and pharmaceutical intervention protocols for personnel engaged in high-intensity exercise and operations in hot and humid environments.Methods ①Thirty SPF-grade 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 5 groups(n=6):control group,30 min post-exercise group,4 h post-exercise group,12 h post-exercise group,and 24 h post-exercise group.The mice in the exercise groups were subjected on a treadmill in a heat chamber(temperature:38℃,humidity:RH 75%)at 80%maximal exercise velocity(Vmax)(exercise 12 min,rest 8 min,3 cycles;slope 10°).Subsequently,the colon tissues were harvested for morphological observation by HE staining in each group;ELISA was used to detect the serum levels of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-6,IL-10,and IL-1β)to observe the inflammatory response of each group.Intestinal fatty acid binding protein(I-FABP)and lipopolysaccharide(LPS)were detected to observe intestinal permeability;Microassay was performed to determine the concentrations of reduced glutathione(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA),as well as the activity of catalase(CAT)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)in the colon tissues;RT-qPCR was applied to detect the expression levels of intestinal tight junction protein related genes Occludin,ZO-1,Claudin-1,inflammation and oxidative stress related genes Tlr4,TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-10,heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),and superoxide dismutase1(SOD1),as well as key transcription factors HSF1,NF-κB,PARP-1,and NRF2 in heat stress regulation;Western blotting was utilized to detect the protein of colonic tight junction protein Occludin.② For BAI intervention study,24 SPF-grade 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 4 groups(n=6)control group,exercise group(high temperature and high humidity exercise,gavage with deionized water 200 μL),exercise+low-and high-dose intervention groups(BAI gavage 200 μL at 10 and 40 mg/kg per day).At 4 h after the end of exercise,colonic and blood samples were collected for serum levels of urea nitrogen(BUN)content,alanine aminotransferase(ALT),and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)to evaluate the safety of BAI.Other detection sites,indicators,and methods were the same as aforementioned.Results ① The core body temperature was significantly elevated in the exercise group(P<0.05);the structural damage,along with inflammatory cell infiltration was observed in colonic mucosa;the expression of colon Occludin,ZO-1,and Claudin-1 was downregulated(P<0.05),and the protein level of Occludin was decreased(P<0.05),and the serum levels of I-FABP and LPS were increased(P<0.05);The serum levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,and IL-10 were increased(P<0.05),and the expression of IL-1β and IL-10 in the colon was upregulated(P<0.05);The concentration of MDA was increased(P<0.05),while the concentration of GSH and the activities of CAT and SOD were decreased(P<0.05);The expression of HSF1,PARP-1,NF-κB,Tlr4,TNF-α,IL-6,and SOD1 in the colon was upregulated(P<0.05),while the expression of NRF2 and HO-1 was downregulated(P<0.05).These changes were present at 30 min post-exercise,most prominent at 4 h post-exercise,and markedly recovered by 24 h.② After BAI intervention,the core body temperature was significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the serum levels of ALT and AST were decreased(P<0.05);colonic mucosal injury was alleviated;the expression of Occludin at mRNA and protein levels in the colonic tissues were increased(P<0.05);the expression of ZO-1 and Claudin-1 were upregulated(P<0.05),and serum levels of I-FABP and LPS were decreased(P<0.05);the serum level of IL-1β was decreased(P<0.05),and the expression of IL-1 β in the colon was downregulated(P<0.05);The concentration of MDA was decreased(P<0.05),while the concentration of GSH and activities of CAT and SOD in the colon were increased(P<0.05);The expression of HSF1,PARP-1,NF-κB,Tlr4,TNF-α,and IL-6 in the colon was downregulated(P<0.05),while the expression of NRF2 and HO-1 was upregulated(P<0.05).These results indicated that BAI possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects,with better efficacy in the low-dose group.Conclusion Peak colonic barrier injury occurs at 4 h after simulated high-intensity exercise in a hot and humid environment,and prophylactic use of BAI(10 mg/kg per day)can significantly inhibit inflammation and oxidative stress and alleviate injury,providing evidence for time windows and intervention basis for colonic injury induced by heat stress.关键词
