Abstract
- Cognitive impairment is a severe complication of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Emerging studies have revealed the effects of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on improving surgery-induced cognitive impairment. The major aim of the study was to investigate whether PDTC protected against ARDS-induced cognitive dysfunction and to identify the underlying mechanisms involved. The rat model of ARDS was established by intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), followed by treatment with PDTC. The cognitive function of rats was analyzed by the Morris Water Maze, and pro-inflammatory cytokines were assessed by quantitative real-time PCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and western blot assays. A dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to identify the relationship between miR-181c and its target gene, TAK1 binding protein 2 (TAB2). The results showed that PDTC improved cognitive impairment and alleviated neuroinflammation in the hippocampus in LPS-induced ARDS model. Furthermore, we demonstrated that miR-181c expression was downregulated in the hippocampus of the ARDS rats, which was restored by PDTC treatment. In vitro studies showed that miR-181c alleviated LPS-induced pro-inflammatory response by inhibiting TAB2, a critical molecule in the nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathway. PDTC improves cognitive impairment in LPS-induced ARDS by regulating miR-181c/NF-κB axis-mediated neuroinflammation, providing a potential opportunity for the treatment of this disease.
