タイトル Enhanced Cellular Polysulfides Negatively Regulate TLR4 Signaling and Mitigate Lethal Endotoxin Shock.
ジャーナル Cell Chem Biol
Abstract Cysteine persulfide and cysteine polysulfides are cysteine derivatives having sulfane sulfur atoms bound to cysteine thiol. Accumulating evidence has suggested that cysteine persulfides/polysulfides are abundant in prokaryotes and eukaryotes and play important roles in diverse biological processes such as antioxidant host defense and redox-dependent signal transduction. Here, we show that enhancement of cellular polysulfides by using polysulfide donors developed in this study resulted in marked inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-initiated macrophage activation. Polysulfide donor treatment strongly suppressed LPS-induced pro-inflammatory responses in macrophages by inhibiting Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling. Other TLR signaling stimulants-including zymosan A-TLR2 and poly(I:C)-TLR3-were also significantly suppressed by polysulfur donor treatment. Administration of polysulfide donors protected mice from lethal endotoxin shock. These data indicate that cellular polysulfides negatively regulate TLR4-mediated pro-inflammatory signaling and hence constitute a potential target for inflammatory disorders.
