However, the ACO standard medications supported by evidence-based medicine have not yet appeared.Methods: By using an ACO mouse model established previously and LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages in vitro, a potential therapeutic candidate, EAPP-2, was screened from derivatives of 3-arylbenzofuran, and its effect and mechanism on ACO inflammation were evaluated.Results: EAPP-2 significantly alleviated airway inflammation in ACO mice and also inhibited the inflammatory reactions in LPS-induced RAW264.7 macrophages in vitro. Furthermore, EAPP-2 significantly inhibited the expression and phosphorylation of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), a common target regulating both eosinophils and neutrophils inflammation. In addition to this, EAPP-2 significantly down-regulates the expression of NF-κB, p-NF-κB, and NLRP3 in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, by using specific inhibitors in vitro, it was validated that EAPP-2 targeted on Syk and then regulated its downstream NF-κB and NLRP3.Conclusion: EAPP-2 is shown to be a potentially useful therapeutic candidate for ACO, and its mechanism is at least partially achieved by targeting on Syk and then inhibiting NF-κB or NLRP3. Moreover, this study suggests that Syk may be a potentially effective target for ACO therapy.Keywords: EAPP-2, asthma–COPD overlap, ACO, Syk, NF-κB, NLRP3Li SHui YYuan JZhang ZLi XFang NLin MHou QDove Medical Pressarticleeapp-2asthma-copd overlap (aco)syknf-κbnlrp3PathologyRB1-214Therapeutics.
