PG - 379-388 LID - S1567-5769(19)30534-X [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.intimp.2019.05.013 [doi] AB - Previous studies reported that L-fucose had anti-inflammatory effects in respiratory and cutaneous system. However, the effect of L-fucose on colitis and the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. We studied the anti-inflammatory effects of L-fucose on Dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced acute colitis in vivo and on LPS/ATP-induced bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) damage in vitro. Our results show that L-fucose significantly alleviated weight loss and disease activity index (DAI) scores in colitis and reduced the infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils. In addition, L-fucose can inhibit macrophage M1 polarization, inactivate the NLRP3 inflammasome and reduce the release of TNFalpha, IL1beta, IL6 pro-inflammatory cytokines. In vitro studies showed that L-fucose ameliorated cell damage resulting from the administration of LPS with ATP in BMDMs, inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation and reduced the release of corresponding pro-inflammatory cytokines. Finally, L-fucose can inhibit the expression of p-NF-kB in vivo and in vitro. Overall, our results show that L-fucose can attenuate colitis by inhibiting macrophage M1 polarization, inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome and NF-kB activation, and down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
