The present study was designed to evaluate the role of ER stress in adiponectin (APN)-induced lung protection in an obese rat model treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Methods: Four-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats fed either a normal chow diet or a high-fat diet for 12 weeks were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: lean rats, diet-induced obesity rats, lean rats with ALI, obese rats with ALI, obese rats pretreated with 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA) before ALI or obese rats pretreated with APN before ALI. At 24 h after instillation of LPS into the lungs, cell counts in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were determined. Lung tissues were separated to assess the degree of inflammation, pulmonary oedema, epithelial apoptosis and the expression of ER stress marker proteins.Results: The 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78) and C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) expression in the lung tissues of obese rats was upregulated before ALI, as well as the elevated apoptosis in epithelial cells. During ALI, the expression of ER stress marker proteins was similarly increased in both lean and obese rats, while significant downregulation of Mitofusin 2 (MFN2) was detected in obese epithelial cells. The lung tissues of obese rats showed higher concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), Interleukin 6 (IL-6) and IL-10, enhanced neutrophil counts and elevated wet/dry weight ratios. APN and 4-PBA decreased the degree of ER stress and suppressed LPS-induced lung inflammation, pulmonary oedema and epithelial apoptosis.Conclusion: APN may exert protective effects against the exacerbated lung injuries in obese rats by attenuating ER stress, which operates as a key molecular pathway in the progression of ALI.Keywords: adiponectin, endoplasmic reticulum stress, obesity, lung injuryWei KLuo JCao JPeng LRen LZhang FDove Medical Pressarticleadiponectinendoplasmic reticulum stressobesitylung injurySpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 13, Pp 4179-4190 (2020) |
