Abstrakt: Psychological distress and posttraumatic stress, including anxiety, severely influence life quality. Previously, we reported that interleukin-18 (IL-18) was involved in pyroptosis-induced emotional changes in a rodent model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation (HSR). Here, we aimed to continue our investigation on the role of IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), which exhibits excellent anti-inflammatory effects as an IL-18 negative regulator. Mice were administered with an intraperitoneal injection of IL-18BP after HSR exposure and anxiety-like behavior was examined using the open-field test and elevated plus maze test. Moreover, the following variables post-HSR were measured: (1) the activation of astrocytes; (2) pyroptosis-associated factors including cleaved caspase-1, GSDMD, IL-18; (3) the roles of IL-18 receptor (IL-18R)-NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) signal with the application of the NLRP3 specific agonist or astrocyte-specific NLRP3 knockout mice. IL-18BP administration remarkably alleviated HSR-induced anxiety-like behavior, astrocytic activation, and increases in pyroptosis-associated factors, while NLRP3 agonist nigericin partially reversed IL-18BP-induced neuroprotective effects. Astrocyte-specific NLRP3 knockout mice exhibited relatively less anxiety-like behavior. Similarly, IL-18BP exhibited an anti-pyroptosis effect in astrocytes in an in vitro model of low oxygen-glucose deprivation. These findings offer unique perspectives on HSR-induced posttraumatic stress and indicate that inhibition of IL-18R-NLRP3 signal via IL-18BP can attenuate astrocytic activation and pyroptosis, broadening the therapeutic landscape for patients with psychological distress and posttraumatic stress.
