Popis: AbstractContext Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe condition with limited effective therapeutics; nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) has been reported to exert anti-inflammatory activities.Objective This study explores the potential mechanisms by which NMN ameliorates sepsis-induced ALI in vivo and in vitro.Materials and methods Cultured MH-S cells and a murine model were used to evaluate the effect of NMN on sepsis-induced ALI. MH-S cells were stimulated with LPS (1 μg/mL) and NMN (500 μM) for 12 h grouping as control, LPS, and LPS + NMN. Cell viability, apoptotic status, and M1/2 macrophage-related markers were detected. The mice were pretreated intraperitoneally with NMN (500 mg/kg) and/or EX-527 (5 mg/kg) 1 h before LPS injection and randomized into 7 groups (n = 8): control, LPS, LPS + NMN, NMN, LPS + NMN + EX-527 (a SIRT1 inhibitor), LPS + EX-527, and EX-527. After 12 h, lung histopathology, W/D ratio, MPO activity, NAD+ and ATP levels, M1/2 macrophage-related markers, and expression of the SIRT1/NF-κB pathway were detected.Results In MH-S cells, NMN significantly decreased the apoptotic rate from 12.25% to 5.74%. In septic mice, NMN improved the typical pathologic findings in lungs and reduced W/D ratio and MPO activity, but increased NAD+ and ATP levels. Additionally, NMN suppressed M1 but promoted M2 polarization, and upregulated the expression of SIRT1, with inhibition of NF-κB-p65 acetylation and phosphorylation. Furthermore, inhibition of SIRT1 reversed the effects of NMN-induced M2 macrophage polarization.Conclusions NMN protects against sepsis-induced ALI by promoting M2 macrophage polarization via the SIRT1/NF-κB pathway, it might be an effective strategy for preventing or treating sepsis-induced ALI.
