Kinase experiment: |
CHO-GPR35 stable cells are pretreated with or without pertussis toxin (100 ng/mL) for 16 h before harvesting. Cells are resuspended and homogenized in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 1 mM EDTA followed by centrifugation at 1000 ×g for 10 min at 4 °C to remove nuclei and cellular debris. Membrane fractions are collected by spinning the supernatant at 38,000 ×g for 30 min and resuspended in 20 mM HEPES (pH 7.5) and 5 mM MgCl2. 25 μg of membranes is incubated at room temperature for 1 h in assay buffer (20 mM HEPES, 5 m MMgCl2, 0.1% bovine serum albumin (pH 7.5)) containing 3 μM GDP and 0.1 nM[35S]GTPγS in the absence or presence of kynurenic acid. Reactions are terminated by vacuum filtration through GF/B filters, and the retained radioactivities are quantified on liquid scintillation counter[1]. |

Animal experiment: |
Mouse: The experiment is performed on 160 male BALB/c mice, aged 10-12 weeks, with body weight of 22-26 g. The animals are maintained on a 12-h light/dark cycle at controlled temperature (20 ±1°C) and supplied with rodent chow and water ad libitum throughout the experiment. Mice are divided randomLy into four equal groups: control group (0) not receiving the Kynurenic acid, and three experimental groups administered the Kynurenic acid solution in drinking water at concentrations of 2.5, 25 or 250 mg/L. After 3, 7, 14 and 28 consecutive days of administration of the Kynurenic acid solution, 10 individuals from each group are sacrificed. The animals are anesthetized by inhalation of Aerrane and their blood is collected by heart puncture. Blood collected from five individuals of each group is used for the MTT assay, and from the next five for the flow cytometry[3]. |

Kynurenic acid sodium, an endogenous tryptophan metabolite, is a broad-spectrum antagonist targeting NMDA, glutamate, α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. Kynurenic acid sodium is also an agonist of GPR35/CXCR8. CXCR8
GPR35 functions as a receptor for the kynurenine pathway intermediate kynurenic acid. Kynurenic acid elicits calcium mobilization and inositol phosphate production in a GPR35-dependent manner in the presence of G qi/o chimeric G proteins. Kynurenic acid stimulates [35S]guanosine 5′-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) binding in GPR35-expressing cells, an effect abolished by pertussis toxin treatment. Kynurenic acid also induces the internalization of GPR35[1]. KYNA's neuroinhibitory qualities and its neuroprotective and anticonvulsant effects are discovered using concentrations of the compound in the millimolar range. This, as well as the low affinity of KYNA at each of the three ionotropic glutamate receptors responsible for these effects [NMDA, alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) and kainate], together with the realization that KYNA concentrations in the mammalian brain are in the sub-micromolar range, suggested that other receptors might serve as targets of endogenous Kynurenic acid. Kynurenic acid, with a shallower inhibition curve and non-competitively, antagonizes α7nAChRs on cultured hippocampal neurons with an IC50 in the low micromolar range[2].
Kynurenic acid affects the activity of leukocytes in the peripheral blood of mice, although the lowest one (2.5 mg/L) has the most profound influence in contrast to the highest one (250 mg/L), which produces the weakest effect. The lowest Kynurenic acid dose stimulates the proliferative response of T lymphocytes (p<0.05), after 7 and 28 days of administering the acid to the animals[3].

Functional metabolomics reveal the role of AHR/GPR35 mediated Kynurenic acid gradient sensing in chemotherapy-induced intestinal damage
Acta Pharm Sin B 2021 Mar;11(3):763-780.PMID:33777681DOI:10.1016/j.apsb.2020.07.017.
Intestinal toxicity induced by chemotherapeutics has become an important reason for the interruption of therapy and withdrawal of approved agents. In this study, we demonstrated that chemotherapeutics-induced intestinal damage were commonly characterized by the sharp upregulation of tryptophan (Trp)-kynurenine (KYN)-kynurenic acid (KA) axis metabolism. Mechanistically, chemotherapy-induced intestinal damage triggered the formation of an interleukin-6 (IL-6)-indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1)-aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) positive feedback loop, which accelerated kynurenine pathway metabolism in gut. Besides, AHR and G protein-coupled receptor 35 (GPR35) negative feedback regulates intestinal damage and inflammation to maintain intestinal integrity and homeostasis through gradually sensing Kynurenic acid level in gut and macrophage, respectively. Moreover, based on virtual screening and biological verification, vardenafil and linagliptin as GPR35 and AHR agonists respectively were discovered from 2388 approved drugs. Importantly, the results that vardenafil and linagliptin significantly alleviated chemotherapy-induced intestinal toxicity in vivo suggests that chemotherapeutics combined with the two could be a promising therapeutic strategy for cancer patients in clinic. This work highlights GPR35 and AHR as the guardian of kynurenine pathway metabolism and core component of defense responses against intestinal damage.
Inflammatory cytokines-stimulated human muscle stem cells ameliorate ulcerative colitis via the IDO-TSG6 axis
Stem Cell Res Ther 2021 Jan 9;12(1):50.PMID:33422134DOI:10.1186/s13287-020-02118-3.
Background: Muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are absolutely required for the formation, repair, and regeneration of skeletal muscle tissue. Increasing evidence demonstrated that tissue stem cells, especially mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), can exert therapeutic effects on various degenerative and inflammatory disorders based on their immunoregulatory properties. Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) treated with interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were reported to possess anti-inflammatory functions by producing TNF-stimulated gene 6 (TSG-6). However, whether human muscle stem cells (hMuSCs) also possess TSG-6 mediated anti-inflammatory functions has not been explored. Methods: The ulcerative colitis mouse model was established by subjecting mice to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in drinking water for 7 days. hMuSCs were pretreated with IFN-γ and TNF-α for 48 h and were then transplanted intravenously at day 2 of DSS administration. Body weights were monitored daily. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and TSG-6 in hMuSCs were knocked down with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA), respectively. Colon tissues were collected for length measurement and histopathological examination. The serum level of IL-6 in mice was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Real-time PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to evaluate gene expression. Results: hMuSCs treated with inflammatory factors significantly ameliorated inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) symptoms. IDO and TSG-6 were greatly upregulated and required for the beneficial effects of hMuSCs on IBD. Mechanistically, the tryptophan metabolites, kynurenine (KYN) or Kynurenic acid (KYNA) produced by IDO, augmented the expression of TSG-6 through activating their common receptor aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). Conclusion: Inflammatory cytokines-treated hMuSCs can alleviate DSS-induced colitis through IDO-mediated TSG-6 production.
Kynurenic acid selectively reduces heart rate in spontaneously hypertensive rats
Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2020 Apr;393(4):673-679.PMID:31807837DOI:10.1007/s00210-019-01771-7.
We found previously that intravenous Kynurenic acid (KYNA), a native broad spectrum glutamate antagonist, increases renal blood flow and induces natriuresis in anesthetized spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Since such changes may affect systemic circulation and can potentially find therapeutic application, in this study we examined long term influence of orally administered KYNA on systemic and renal hemodynamics and renal excretion in conscious SHR. KYNA was administered in drinking water at a dose of 25 mg/kg/day for 3 weeks. Heart rate (HR), systolic (SBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were measured through telemetry. The records were taken at the beginning of the study (control, day 0), and then on day 7, 14, and 21 of treatment. Diuresis (V), total solute excretion (UosmV), and sodium excretion (UNaV) were determined on days 0, 7, and 14. KYNA consistently decreased HR, from 319 ± 8 to 291 ± 5, 299 ± 9 and 284 ± 6 beats/min on day 7, 14, and 21, respectively, (- 9, - 6, and - 11%; p < 0.01-0.0001); HR was stable in the solvent group. SBP, MAP, V, and UNaV were not affected by KYNA, whereas UosmV increased modestly. Chronic oral administration of KYNA to conscious SHR decreased HR without affecting MAP. Since tachycardia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disorders, and most drugs used to decrease HR have strong inotropic negative or hypotensive effect, such selective action seems of therapeutic potential. Moreover, food supplementation with KYNA can be considered in the prevention of heart diseases.
Kynurenic acid and Its Analogs Are Beneficial Physiologic Attenuators in Bdelloid Rotifers
Molecules 2019 Jun 10;24(11):2171.PMID:31185582DOI:10.3390/molecules24112171.
The in vivo investigation of Kynurenic acid (KYNA) and its analogs is one of the recent exciting topics in pharmacology. In the current study we assessed the biological effects of these molecules on bdelloid rotifers (Philodina acuticornis and Adineta vaga) by monitoring changes in their survival and phenotypical characteristics. In addition to longitudinal (slowly changing) markers (survival, number of rotifers alive and body size index), some dynamic (quickly responding) ones (cellular reduction capacity and mastax contraction frequency) were measured as well. KYNA and its analogs increased longevity, reproduction and growth, whereas reduction capacity and energy-dependent muscular activity decreased conversely. We found that spermidine, a calorie restriction mimetic, exerted similar changes in the applied micro-invertebrates. This characterized systemic profile evoked by the above-mentioned compounds was named beneficial physiologic attenuation. In reference experiments, using a stimulator (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) and a toxin (sodium azide), all parameters changed in the same direction (positively or negatively, respectively), as expected. The currently described adaptive phenomenon in bdelloid rotifers may provide holistic perspectives in translational research.
Endogenous Plasma Kynurenic acid in Human: A Newly Discovered Biomarker for Drug-Drug Interactions Involving Organic Anion Transporter 1 and 3 Inhibition
Drug Metab Dispos 2021 Dec;49(12):1063-1069.PMID:34599018DOI:10.1124/dmd.121.000486.
As an expansion investigation of drug-drug interaction (DDI) from previous clinical trials, additional plasma endogenous metabolites were quantitated in the same subjects to further identify the potential biomarkers of organic anion transporter (OAT) 1/3 inhibition. In the single dose, open label, three-phase with fixed order of treatments study, 14 healthy human volunteers orally received 1000 mg probenecid alone, or 40 mg furosemide alone, or 40 mg furosemide at 1 hour after receiving 1000 mg probenecid on days 1, 8, and 15, respectively. Endogenous metabolites including Kynurenic acid, xanthurenic acid, indo-3-acetic acid, pantothenic acid, p-cresol sulfate, and bile acids in the plasma were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The Cmax of kynurenic acids was significantly increased about 3.3- and 3.7-fold over the baseline values at predose followed by the treatment of probenecid alone or in combination with furosemide respectively. In comparison with the furosemide-alone group, the Cmax and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) up to 12 hours of Kynurenic acid were significantly increased about 2.4- and 2.5-fold by probenecid alone, and 2.7- and 2.9-fold by probenecid plus furosemide, respectively. The increases in Cmax and AUC of plasma Kynurenic acid by probenecid are comparable to the increases of furosemide Cmax and AUC reported previously. Additionally, the plasma concentrations of xanthurenic acid, indo-3-acetic acid, pantothenic acid, and p-cresol sulfate, but not bile acids, were also significantly elevated by probenecid treatments. The magnitude of effect size analysis for known potential endogenous biomarkers demonstrated that Kynurenic acid in the plasma offers promise as a superior addition for early DDI assessment involving OAT1/3 inhibition. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This article reports that probenecid, an organic anion transporter (OAT) 1 and OAT3 inhibitor, significantly increased the plasma concentrations of Kynurenic acid and several uremic acids in human subjects. Of those, the increases of plasma Kynurenic acid exposure are comparable to the increases of furosemide by OAT1/3 inhibition. Effect size analysis for known potential endogenous biomarkers revealed that plasma Kynurenic acid is a superior addition for early drug-drug interaction assessment involving OAT1/3 inhibition.
