Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an important risk factor for gastrointestinal cancers. Inflammation and other carcinogenesis-related effects at distal, tissue-specific sites require further study. In order to better understand if systemic genotoxicity is associated with IBD, we exposed mice to dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS) and measured the incidence of micronucleated cells (MN) and Pig-a mutant phenotype cells in blood erythrocyte populations. In one study, 8-week-old male CD-1 mice were exposed to 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4% w/v DSS in drinking water. The 4-week in-life period was divided into four 1-week intervals—alternately on then off DSS treatment. Low volume blood samples were collected for MN analysis at the end of each week, and cardiac blood samples were collected at the end of the 4-week period for Pig-a analyses. The two highest doses of DSS were observed to induce significant increases in reticulocyte frequencies. Even so, no statistically significant treatment-related effects on the genotoxicity biomarkers were evident. While one high-dose mouse showed modestly elevated MN frequencies during the DSS treatment cycles, it also exhibited exceptionally high reticulocyte frequencies (e.g. 18.7% at the end of the second DSS cycle). In a second study, mice were treated with 0 or 4% DSS for 9–18 consecutive days. Exposure was continued until rectal bleeding or morbidity was evident, at which point the treatment was terminated and blood was collected for MN analysis. The Pig-a assay was conducted on samples collected 29 days after the start of treatment. The initial blood specimens showed highly elevated reticulocyte frequencies in DSS-exposed mice (mean ± SEM = 1.75 ± 0.10% vs. 13.04 ± 3.66% for 0 vs. 4% mice, respectively). Statistical analyses showed no treatment-related effect on MN or Pig-a mutant frequencies. Even so, the incidence of MN versus reticulocytes in the DSS-exposed mice were positively correlated (linear fit R2 = 0.657, P = 0.0044). Collectively, these results suggest that in the case of the DSS CD-1 mouse model, systemic effects include stress erythropoiesis but not remarkable genotoxicity. To the extent MN may have been slightly elevated in a minority of individual mice, these effects appear to be secondary, likely attributable to stimulated erythropoiesis.

The complement and contact systems may be involved in the pathophysiological process of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). C1 inhibitor (C1INH) is the most important inhibitor of both the complement and contact systems. We evaluated the role of these systems and the effect of both active and inactive forms of C1INH (iC1INH) in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis mouse model. Three percent DSS was used in drinking water to induce colitis in complement C3-deficient (C3−/−) mice, bradykinin type 2 receptor deficient (Bk2R−/−) mice, and C57BL/6 mice. After ten days DSS exposure, C3−/− mice exhibited markedly less weight loss than wild-type (WT) mice (12 ± 3.3% vs. 30 ± 1.2%, P < 0.05) and developed a milder disease-activity index (DAI), histological score, colon shortening, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) elevation ( P < 0.05, respectively). The Bk2R−/− mice were not protected from the disease. Seven-day treatment with either native C1INH or iC1INH reduced the severity of the disease in WT mice, as indicated by decreased weight loss (15 ± 1.8%, 14 ± 2.1% vs. 30 ± 1.2%, P < 0.05, respectively), DAI, intestinal tissue damage, and MPO elevation compared with untreated WT DSS control mice ( P < 0.05, respectively). These findings suggest that complement plays a role in the development of DSS-induced colitis and that blockade of the complement system might be useful for the acute phase of IBD treatment. C1INH, however, leads to an amelioration of DSS-induced colitis via a mechanism that does not involve the inhibition of complement or contact system activation but does result in significant suppression of leukocyte infiltration.

Cardamonin is a naturally occurring chalcone with strong anti-inflammatory activity. However, the direct effect of cardamonin on intestinal inflammation remains elusive. In the present study, we found that cardamonin markedly ameliorated dextran sulfate sodium-induced mouse body weight loss, diarrhea, colon shortening, spleen swelling, and histological damage, which correlated with a decline in the activity of myeloperoxidase and the production of nitric oxide, tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 in the colon. The upregulation of toll-like receptor 4 after dextran sulfate sodium treatment was associated with an increase in the activation of myeloid differentiation factor 88, interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-1, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65, inhibitor κBα, and inhibitor κB kinase-α/β, as well as the mitogen-activated protein kinase molecules of extracellular signal-regulated kinase and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase, and this upregulation was reversed by cardamonin administration. Moreover, cardamonin blocked the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65, inhibited NF-κB-luciferase activity, and downregulated NF-κB target genes expression. The present study clearly demonstrates a beneficial effect of cardamonin on experimental inflammatory bowel disease via a mechanism associated with suppression of toll-like receptor 4 expression and inactivation of NF-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. This study may give insight into the further evaluation of the therapeutic potential of cardamonin or its derivatives for human inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a systemic disease that frequently causes liver damage. However, the metabolic mechanism of liver disorder induced by IBD is still unclear. This study aimed to revile metabolic profiles of liver in mice which induced inflammatory bowel disease by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) and treated by cecropin A and gentamicin . Methods: In this study, IBD mold mice were established, C57BL/6 mice were given water containing 2.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 5 days. Subsequently, the mice were treated via intraperitoneally injected with saline, 15 mg/kg cecropin A, 5 mg/kg gentamicin for 3 days, respectively. The liver in IBD mold mice or treated by cecropin A and gentamicin, were performed metabolomics analysis through UPLC–Orbitrap–MS/MS. Database integration analysis software was used to identify metabolites of liver. Multivariate analysis, including principal component analysis (PCA), hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) and orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). Furthermore, metabolic pathway analysis was performed using MetaboAnalyst 4.0. Results: A total of 133 metabolites were identified in liver of mice and 20 key metabolites were considered as potential biomarkers were identified between the control and IBD group. There are 4 key metabolic pathways include bile acid metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, amino acid and protein metabolism, and steroid hormone biosynthesis in liver was disturbed by IBD, and we also found that those pathways were reversed when mice were treated by cecropin A and gentamicin. Conclusion: The results indicated that those differential metabolites and metabolic pathways changed in liver were likely to be caused by IBD. The further study shall be carried out to explore the mechanism of liver disorder induced by IBD.
