阻断HIF-1α/糖酵解轴通过降低ILC2代谢和功能抑制过敏性气道炎症

2024/11/29

   摘要
   背景:肺2组先天淋巴细胞(ILC2)活化在过敏性哮喘中的作用越来越明确。然而,ILC2介导的过敏性气道炎症中缺氧诱导因子-1α(HIF-1α)介导的糖酵解的调控机制尚不清楚。
   目的:探讨HIF-1α/糖酵解轴在ILC2介导的过敏性气道炎症中的作用。
   方法:采用糖酵解和HIF-1α抑制剂在体内和体外鉴定其对小鼠和人ILC2s功能和葡萄糖代谢的影响。在白细胞介素-33(IL-33)刺激下阻断小鼠的糖酵解和HIF-1α,以测试ILC2反应。使用条件HIF-1α缺陷小鼠来确认HIF-1α在ILC2驱动的气道炎症模型中的特定作用。进行了转录组学、代谢和染色质免疫沉淀分析,以阐明其潜在机制。
   结果:HIF-1α参与ILC2代谢,在过敏性气道炎症中起着至关重要的作用。单细胞测序数据分析和qPCR确认显示,在IL-33鼻内给药或注射后,小鼠肺ILC2s中糖酵解相关基因,特别是HIF-1α显著上调。糖酵解抑制剂2-脱氧-D-葡萄糖(2-DG)和HIF-1α抑制剂2-甲氧基雌二醇(2-ME)通过抑制ILC2s功能消除炎症。条件性HIF-1α缺陷小鼠在IL-33或屋尘螨(HDM)刺激下表现出ILC2反应降低和气道炎症。转录组和代谢分析显示,与同窝对照组相比,条件性HIF-1α敲除小鼠的肺ILC2s糖酵解明显受损。染色质免疫沉淀结果证实了HIF-1α敲除和2-DG处理的小鼠中糖酵解相关基因的转录下调。此外,哮喘患者HIF-1α/糖酵解轴活化受损与ILC2下调有关。
   结论:HIF-1α/糖酵解轴对于控制过敏性气道炎症中的ILC2反应至关重要,在哮喘中具有潜在的免疫治疗价值。

Abstract
Background: The role of lung group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2) activation in allergic asthma is increasingly established. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)-mediated glycolysis in ILC2-mediated allergic airway inflammation remain unclear.
Objective: To investigate the role of the HIF-1α/glycolysis axis in ILC2-mediated allergic airway inflammation.
Methods: Glycolysis and HIF-1α inhibitors were used to identify their effect on the function and glucose metabolism of mouse and human ILC2s in vivo and vitro. Blocking glycolysis and HIF-1α in mice under interleukin-33 (IL-33) stimulation were performed to test ILC2 responses. Conditional HIF-1α-deficient mice were used to confirm the specific role of HIF-1α in ILC2-driven airway inflammation models. Transcriptomic, metabolic, and chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses were performed to elucidate the underlying mechanism.
Results: HIF-1α is involved in ILC2 metabolism and is crucial in allergic airway inflammation. Single-cell sequencing data analysis and qPCR confirmation revealed a significant upregulation of glycolysis-related genes, particularly HIF-1α, in murine lung ILC2s after IL-33 intranasal administration or injection. Treatment with the glycolysis inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) and the HIF-1α inhibitor 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME) abrogated inflammation by suppressing ILC2s function. Conditional HIF-1α-deficient mice showed reduced ILC2 response and airway inflammation induced upon IL-33 or house dust mite (HDM) stimulation. Transcriptome and metabolic analyses revealed significantly impaired glycolysis in lung ILC2s in conditional HIF-1α knockout mice compared to that in their littermate controls. Chromatin immunoprecipitation results confirmed the transcriptional downregulation of glycolysis-related genes in HIF-1α-knockout and 2-DG-treated mice. Furthermore, impaired HIF-1α/glycolysis axis activation is correlated with downregulated ILC2 in patients with asthma.
Conclusion: The HIF-1α/glycolysis axis is critical for controlling ILC2 responses in allergic airway inflammation and has potential immunotherapeutic value in asthma.
