BACKGROUND: Meningitic Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the major etiological agent of bacterial meningitis, a life-threatening infectious disease with severe neurological sequelae and high mortality. The major cause of central nervous system (CNS) damage and sequelae is the bacterial-induced inflammatory storm, where the immune response of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is crucial.
METHODS: Western blot, real-time PCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, immunofluorescence, and dual-luciferase reporter assay were used to investigate the suppressor role of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) in the immune response of brain microvascular endothelial cells elicited by meningitic E. coli.
RESULT: In this work, we showed that exogenous TGFβ1 and induced noncanonical Hedgehog (HH) signaling suppressed the endothelial immune response to meningitic E. coli infection via upregulation of intracellular miR-155. Consequently, the increased miR-155 suppressed ERK1/2 activation by negatively regulating KRAS, thereby decreasing IL-6, MIP-2, and E-selectin expression. In addition, the exogenous HH signaling agonist SAG demonstrated promising protection against meningitic E. coli-induced neuroinflammation.
CONCLUSION: Our work revealed the effect of TGFβ1 antagonism on E. coli-induced BBB immune response and suggested that activation of HH signaling may be a potential protective strategy for future bacterial meningitis therapy. Video Abstract.
