Abstract

Introduction: Aluminum is a kind of chemical contaminants in food which can induce neurotoxicity. Aluminum exposure is closely related to neurodegenerative diseases (ND), in which neuroinflammation might involve. However, the molecular mechanism of aluminum-induced neuroinflammation through pyroptosis is not fully clarified yet.

Material and methods: The mice model of subacute exposure to aluminum chloride (AlCl3) was established. BV2 microglia cells was treated with AlCl3 in vitro. Resveratrol (Rsv) was adopted as intervention agent.

Results: Our results showed that aluminum induced cognitive impairment, destroying blood brain barrier (BBB), and causing nerve injury in mice. Meanwhile, aluminum could stimulate nucleotide oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome assembly and activate caspase-1 (CASP1), inducing gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis signaling, releasing cytokines IL-1β and IL-18, further promoting the activation of glial cells to magnify neuroinflammatory response. Moreover, DEAD-box helicase 3 X-linked (DDX3X) and stress granule RasGAP SH3-domain-binding protein 1 (G3BP1) both participated in neuroinflammation induced by aluminum. When co-treated with Rsv, these injuries were alleviated to some extent.

Conclusion: Aluminum exposure could induce nerve cell pyroptosis and neuroinflammation by DDX3X-NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway, which could be rescued via Rsv activating sirtuin 1 (SIRT1).

Keywords: Aluminum exposure; Inflammasome assembly; Neuroinflammation; Pyroptosis; Resveratrol.
