    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury often leads to neuronal death through persistent neuroinflammatory responses. Recent research has unveiled a unique inflammatory programmed cell death mode known as PANoptosis. However, direct evidence for PANoptosis in ischemic stroke-induced neuronal death has not been established. Although it is widely thought that modulating the balance of microglial phenotypic polarization in cerebral I/R could mitigate neuroinflammation-mediated neuronal death, it remains unknown whether microglial polarization influences PANoptotic neuronal death triggered by cerebral I/R. Our prior study demonstrated that curcumin (CUR) preconditioning could boost the neuroprotective properties of olfactory mucosa-derived mesenchymal stem cells (OM-MSCs) in intracerebral hemorrhage. Yet, the potential neuroprotective capacity of curcumin-pretreated OM-MSCs (CUR-OM-MSCs) on reducing PANoptotic neuronal death during cerebral I/R injury through modulating microglial polarization is uncertain. METHODS: To mimic cerebral I/R injury, We established in vivo models of reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in C57BL/6 mice and in vitro models of oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) in HT22 neurons and BV2 microglia. RESULTS: Our findings indicated that cerebral I/R injury caused PANoptotic neuronal death and triggered microglia to adopt an M1 (pro-inflammatory) phenotype both in vivo and in vitro. Curcumin pretreatment enhanced the proliferation and anti-inflammatory capacity of OM-MSCs. The CUR-OM-MSCs group experienced a more pronounced reduction in PANoptotic neuronal death and a better recovery of neurological function than the OM-MSCs group. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that microRNA-423-5p (miRNA-423-5p) expression was obviously upregulated in CUR-OM-MSCs compared to OM-MSCs. CUR-OM-MSCs treatment induced the switch to an M2 (anti-inflammatory) phenotype in microglia by releasing miRNA-423-5p, which targeted nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2), an upstream regulator of NF-kappaB (NF-κB) and Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways, to attenuate PANoptotic neuronal death resulting from cerebral I/R. CONCLUSION: This results provide the first demonstration of the existence of PANoptotic neuronal death in cerebral I/R conditions. Curcumin preconditioning enhanced the ameliorating effect of OM-MSCs on neuroinflammation mediated by microglia polarization via upregulating the abundance of miRNA-423-5p. This intervention effectively alleviates PANoptotic neuronal death resulting from cerebral I/R. The combination of curcumin with OM-MSCs holds promise as a potentially efficacious treatment for cerebral ischemic stroke in the future.
