Introduction: Adiponectin is a hormone secreted by adipocytes, which exhibits insulin-sensitizing and anti-inflammatory properties and acts through adiponectin receptors: AdipoR1 and AdipoR2. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether activation of adiponectin receptors AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 with an orally active agonist AdipoRon has gastroprotective effect and to investigate the possible underlying mechanism. Methods: We used two well-established mouse models of gastric ulcer (GU) induced by oral administration of EtOH (80% solution in water) or diclofenac (30 mg/kg, p.o.). Gastroprotective effect of AdipoRon (dose 5 and 50 mg /kg p.o) was compared to omeprazole (20 mg/kg p.o.) or 5% DMSO solution (control). Clinical parameters of gastroprotection were assessed using macroscopic (gastric lesion area) and microscopic (evaluation of the gastric mucosa damage) scoring. To establish the molecular mechanism, we measured: myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activities; glutathione (GSH) level; and IL-1β, adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and phosphorylated AMPK expression in gastric tissue. Results: AdipoRon produced a gastroprotective effect in both GU mouse models as evidenced by significantly lower macroscopic and microscopic damage scores. AdipoRon exhibited anti-inflammatory effect by reduction in MPO activity and IL-1β expression in the gastric tissue. Moreover, AdipoRon induced antioxidative action, as demonstrated with higher GSH levels, and increased SOD and GPX activity. Conclusions: Activation of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 using AdipoRon reduced gastric lesions and enhanced cell response to oxidative stress. Our data suggest that AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 activation may be an attractive therapeutic strategy to inhibit development of gastric ulcers. |
