Abstrakt: Recombinant interleukin-22 (rIL-22) has been reported as a protective agent in murine models of diseases driven by epithelial injury. Parasites have a circadian rhythm and their sensitivity to a certain drug may vary during the day. Therefore, this work aimed to investigate the effect of rIL-22 administration at different times of the day on the inflammation, oxidative status, and neurotransmitter release in the gut-brain axis of the Schistosoma mansoni-infected mice. Sixty male BALB/c mice aged six weeks weighing 25-30 g were divided into a control group (injected intraperitoneally with PBS), mice infected with 80 ± 10 cercariae of S. mansoni (infected group) then injected intraperitoneally with PBS, and rIL-22 treated groups. rIL-22 was administrated intraperitoneally (400 ng/kg) either at the onset or offset of the light phase for 14 days. IL-22 administration reduced the levels of IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-κβ), and enhanced the production of IL-22 and IL-17. The treatment with IL-22 increased glutathione (GSH) and reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) levels both in the ileum and brain. The B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) protein level in the ileum was diminished after IL-22 administration. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotransmitter release (serotonin, 5HT, norepinephrine, NE, dopamine, DA, Glutamate, Glu, and -amino butyric acid, GABA) were improved by rIL-22. In conclusion, rIL-22 showed promising immunotherapy for inflammation, oxidative damage, and neuropathological signs associated with schistosomiasis. The efficacy of IL-22 increased significantly upon its administration at the time of light offset.
