Abstract
- Our previous studies showed that Salidroside (Sal), a glucoside of the phenylpropanoid tyrosol isolated from Rhodiola rosea L, alleviated severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) by inhibiting inflammation. However, the detailed mechanism remains unclear. Recent evidence has indicated a critical role of Sal in ameliorating inflammatory disorders by regulating pyroptosis. The present study aimed to explore the involvement of Sal and pyroptosis in the pathogenesis of SAP and investigate the potential mechanism. The effects of Sal on pyroptosis were first evaluated using SAP rat and cell model. Our results revealed that Sal treatment significantly decreased SAP-induced pancreatic cell damage and pyroptosis in vivo and in vitro, as well as reduced the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), IL-1β and IL-18. Search Tool for Interacting Chemicals (STITCH) online tool identified 4 genes (CASP3, AKT1, HIF1A and IL10) as candidate targets of Sal in both rattus norvegicus and homo sapiens. Western blot and immunohistochemistry staining validated that Sal treatment decreased the phosphorylation levels of Akt and NF-κB p65, as well as cleaved caspase-3 and N-terminal fragments of GSDME (GSDME-N), suggesting that Sal might suppress pyroptosis through inactivating Akt/NF-κB and Caspase-3/GSDME pathways. Furthermore, overexpression of AKT1 or CASP3 could partially reverse the inhibitory effects of Sal on cell injury and pyroptosis, while downregulation of AKT1 or CASP3 promoted the inhibitory effects of Sal. Taken together, our data indicate that Sal suppresses SAP-induced pyroptosis through inactivating Akt/NF-κB and Caspase-3/GSDME pathways.
