BACKGROUND: Brain lactate concentrations are enhanced in response to cerebral ischemia and promote the formation of reactive astrocytes, which are major components of the neuroinflammatory response and functional recovery, following cerebral ischemia. NDRG2 is upregulated during reactive astrocyte formation. However, its regulation and function are unclear. We studied the relationship between lactate and NDRG2 in astrocytes under conditions of ischemia or oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD).
METHODS: We examined astrocytic NDRG2 expression after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) using western blot and immunofluorescence staining. Under hypoxia conditions, we added exogenous L-lactate sodium (lactate) to cultured primary astrocytes to explore the effects of lactate on the ubiquitination modification of NDRG2. We profiled the transcriptomic features of NDRG2 silencing in astrocytes after 8 h of OGD conditions as well as exogenous lactate treatment by performing RNA-seq. Finally, we evaluated the molecular mechanisms of NDRG2 in regulating TNFα under OGD conditions using western blot and immunohistochemistry.
RESULTS: Reactive astrocytes strongly expressed NDRG2 in a rat model of MCAO. We also showed that lactate stabilizes astrocytic NDRG2 by inhibiting its ubiquitination. NDRG2 inhibition in astrocytes increased inflammation and upregulated immune-associated genes and signaling pathways. NDRG2 knockdown induced TNFα expression and secretion via c-Jun phosphorylation.
CONCLUSIONS: We revealed that under OGD conditions, lactate plays an important anti-inflammatory role and inhibits TNFα expression by stabilizing NDRG2, which is beneficial for neurological functional recovery. NDRG2 may be a new therapeutic target for cerebral ischemia.
