Morusin Protected Ruminal Epithelial Cells against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammation through Inhibiting EGFR-AKT/NF-κB Signaling and Improving Barrier Functions
Paper Abstract
Using phytogenic extracts for preventing or treating rumen epithelial inflammatory injury is a potential alternative to antibiotic use due to their residue-free characteristics. In this study, the efficacy of Morus root bark extract Morusin on ruminal epithelial cells (RECs) against pathogenic stimulus was investigated for the first time. The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) results showed that the Morusin did not affect the cell viability of RECs and exerted anti-inflammatory effects in a concentration-dependent manner. Transcriptome analysis further revealed that the Morusin significantly downregulated the inflammatory-response-related cell signaling, while it upregulated the cell-proliferation-inhibition- and barrier-function-related processes in RECs upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) blocking and immunoblotting analysis further confirmed that the Morusin suppressed LPS-induced inflammation in RECs by downregulating the phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT) and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) p65 protein via inhibiting the EGFR signaling. These findings demonstrate the protective roles of Morusin in LPS-induced inflammation in RECs.
