摘要

Pneumonia is a chronic disorder of the respiratory system associated with worsening quality of life and a significant economic burden. Pinitol, a plant cyclic polyol, has been documented for immune-inflammatory potential. The aim of present investigation was to evaluate the potential and possible mechanism of action of pinitol against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pneumonia in the experimental animal model. Pneumonia was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by intratracheal administration of LPS (2 mg/kg). Animals were treated with either vehicle or dex-amethasone or pinitol (5 or 10 or 20 mg/kg). Potential of pinitol against LPS-induced pulmonary insult was assessed based on behavioral, biochemical, molecular, and ultrastructural studies. Intratracheal instillation of LPS induced significant (P<.05) inflammatory infiltration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue reflected by elevated pleural effusion volume, lung edema, BALF polymorphonuclear leukocytes count and lung myeloperoxidase levels, which was attenuated by pinitol (10 and 20mg/kg) administration. Pinitol also markedly (P<.05) inhibited LPS-induced alterations in electrocardiographic, hemodynamic changes, right ventricular, and lung function tests. The LPS-induced downregulated nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf-2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), whereas upregulated transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, NOD-, LRR-, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOs) lung messenger RNA expressions were significantly (P<.05) inhibited by pinitol. Western blot analysis suggested pinitol markedly (P<.05) decreased nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), inhibitor of nuclear factor κB (IκBα), toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4), and cyclooxygenase-ll (COX-II) protein expressions in the lung. These findings were further supported by histological and ultrastructural analyses of lung tissue that show pinitol significantly (P<.05) ameliorates LPS-induced aberrations in lung tissue. In conclusion, pinitol attenuated LPS-induced pneumonia via inhibition of TLR-4 to downregulate the NF-κB/lκBα signaling cascade and thus ameliorated the production of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, ILs, NLRP3, and TGF-β), inflammatory mediators (COX-II and iNOs) and elevated oxidative stress (Nrf-2 and HO-1).
