Traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers a robust inflammatory response that is closely linked to worsened clinical outcomes. S100A8/A9, also known as calprotectin or myeloid-related protein-8/14 (MRP8/14), an alarmin primarily secreted by activated neutrophils with potent pro-inflammatory property. In this study, we explored the roles of S100A8/A9 in modulating neuroinflammation and influencing TBI outcomes, delving into underlying mechanisms. S100A8/A9-enriched were present injured tissue patients, elevated plasma levels correlated poorer neurological function. Furthermore, using mouse model, demonstrated treatment selective inhibitor Paquinimod significantly mitigated neuronal death, thereby improving prognosis mice. Mechanistically, found conjunction neutrophil activation infiltration brain, enhances reactive oxygen species (ROS) production within neutrophils, accelerating PAD4-mediated extracellular trap (NET) formation, which turn exacerbates neuroinflammation. These findings suggest amplifies neuroinflammatory responses promoting NET formation neutrophils. Inhibition effectively attenuated NET-mediated neuroinflammation; however, when PAD4 was overexpressed adenovirus, leading increased anti-inflammatory effects inhibition markedly diminished. Further experiments knockout mice confirmed reduction NETs could substantially alleviate S100A8/A9-driven Finally, established suppression mediated through AMPK/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. underscore critical pathological role emphasize need for further exploration potential therapeutic strategy TBI.

Introduction Increased neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation has been reported to be associated with cerebrovascular dysfunction and neurological deficits in traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the biological function underlying mechanisms of NETs TBI-induced neuronal cell death are not yet fully understood. Methods First, tissue peripheral blood samples TBI patients were collected, infiltration was detected by immunofluorescence staining Western blot. Then, a controlled cortical impact device used model trauma mice, Anti-Ly6G, DNase, CL-amidine given reduce neutrophilic or mice evaluate function. Finally, pathway changes pyroptosis induced after investigated administration peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (a key enzyme NET formation) adenovirus inositol-requiring enzyme-1 alpha (IRE1α) inhibitors mice. Results We that both circulating biomarkers local significantly increased had positive correlations worse intracranial pressure (ICP) patients. Furthermore, depletion neutrophils effectively reduced subjected TBI. we found degradation inhibition inhibited nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor pyrin containing 1 (NLRP1) inflammasome-mediated TBI, whereas these inhibitory effects abolished cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP), an activator stimulating Interferon genes (STING). Moreover, overexpression PAD4 cortex adenoviruses could aggravate NLRP1-mediated pro-pyroptotic rescued also receiving STING antagonists. IRE1α activation upregulated promote this process.
