Aims

Growth and differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) is a stress-related factor, which implicated in various diseases. This study aimed to investigate the role of GDF15 in LPS-mediated inflammation and to explore the potential underlying molecular mechanisms in human nasal epithelial cells (HNEpCs).

Main methods

HNEpCs were treated with LPS. GDF15 loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments were performed. The expression of GDF15 by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). The mRNA levels and secretion of inflammatory cytokines and MUC5AC were assessed by RT-qPCR and ELISA kits. LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor) and 740Y-P (PI3K agonist) were utilized to interfere with PI3k/Akt pathway. The relationship between GDF15 and ATF4 was identified by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and luciferase reporter assay.

Key findings

We observed that LPS triggered GDF15 expression. GDF15 ablation reduced the mRNA levels and secretion of inflammatory cytokines. GDF15 silencing led to the reduction of the MUC5AC mRNA level, protein level and secretion in response to LPS. Enhanced expression of GDF15 showed the opposite results. Furthermore, we found that GDF15 deficiency inhibited activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway, LY294002 treatment further enhanced the role of GDF15 suppression in inflammation and MUC5AC expression, while 740Y-P administration partly reversed the biological activities of GDF15 silencing. ATF4 could bind to the promoter of GDF15 and positively regulate GDF15 expression. Depression of ATF4 diminished the secretion of inflammatory cytokines and MUC5AC via regulation of GDF15.

Significance

Our data suggest that GDF15 is regulated by ATF4 and suppresses LPS-induced inflammation and MUC5AC in human nasal epithelial cells through the PI3K/Akt pathway."xsd:string
