摘要 | Depression is associated with immune dysregulation and the aberrant activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. However, the neurobiological molecular mechanisms underlying these associations remain unclear. c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK), an important modulator in inflammation and stress responses, is often critically implicated in the development of central nervous system diseases. However, whether and how JNK mediates neuroinflammation-induced depression remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the role of JNK in depressive-like behaviors induced by central lipopolysaccharide (LPS) infusion. The results showed that LPS infusion led to depressive-like behaviors, accompanied by increased proinflammatory cytokine expression, increased JNK activation, and upregulated glucocorticoid receptor (GR) phosphorylation at serine 246 (pGR-Ser(246)) in the habenula (Hb), amygdala (Amyg) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Treatment with SP600125, a known JNK inhibitor, prevented the LPS-induced hyper-activation of JNK and alleviated depressive-like behaviors. Moreover, LPS-induced increases in the expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta and pGR-Ser(246) in these brain regions were reduced when the rats were treated with SP600125. Our results show, for the first time, that JNK activities in the Hb, Amyg, and mPFC are involved in the modulation of neuroinflammation-induced depression and participate in the regulation of the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and GR phosphorylation, which are pathological factors associated with depression. Our findings provide new insights into the mechanism of neuroinflammation-associated depression and suggest that the JNK pathway may be a potential target for treating inflammation-related depression. |
