The Protective Action of Hsp70 and Hydrogen Sulfide Donors in THP-1 Macrophages in the Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Response by Modulating Endocytosis

Mol Biol (Mosk). 2023 Nov-Dec;57(6):1017-1027.ABSTRACTHsp70 and hydrogen sulfide donors reduce inflammatory processes in human and animal cells. The biological action mediated by Hsp70 and H2S donors (GYY4137 and sodium thiosulfate) depends on their protection kinetics from cell activation by lipopolysaccharides. However, the molecular mechanisms of action of Hsp70 and H2S are not well understood. We studied the effect of human recombinant Hsp70 and H2S donors on the formation of reactive oxygen species and tumor necrosis factor-alpha induced in human cells (THP-1) by lipopolysaccharides. Transcriptomic changes occurring in these cells after LPS administration in combination with GYY4137 pretreatment were investigated. The results we obtained showed that Hsp70 and hydrogen sulfide donors reduce inflammatory processes in cells activated by the action of LPS. Hsp70 and H2S donors differed in the kinetics of the protective action, while hydrogen sulfide donors turned out to be more effective. The role of endocytosis in the mechanisms of protection of cells by H2S and Hsp70 donors from the action of LPS was studied. It has been found that GYY4137 pretreatment of LPS-exposed cells reduces the LPS-induced induction of various pro-inflammatory genes and affects the expression of genes of various intracellular signaling pathways.PMID:38062957
