| Summary: | Objectives Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a multifactorial and complex clinical pathophysiological process. Current research indicates that the pathogenesis of intestinal I/R injury involves various mechanisms, including ferroptosis. Methane saline (MS) has been demonstrated to primarily exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects in I/R injury. In this study, we mainly investigated the effect of MS on ferroptosis in intestinal I/R injury and determined its potential mechanism.Methods In vivo and in vitro intestinal I/R injury models were established to validate the relationship between ferroptosis and intestinal I/R injury. MS treatment was applied to assess its impact on intestinal epithelial cell damage, intestinal barrier disruption, and ferroptosis.Results MS treatment led to a reduction in I/R-induced intestinal epithelial cell damage and intestinal barrier disruption. Moreover, similar to treatment with ferroptosis inhibitors, MS treatment reduced ferroptosis in I/R, as indicated by a decrease in the levels of intracellular pro-ferroptosis factors, an increase in the levels of anti-ferroptosis factors, and alleviation of mitochondrial damage. Additionally, the expression of Nrf2/HO-1 was significantly increased after MS treatment. However, the intestinal protective and ferroptosis inhibitory effects of MS were diminished after the use of M385 to inhibit Nrf2 in mice or si-Nrf2 in Caco-2 cells.Discussion We proved that intestinal I/R injury was mitigated by MS and that the underlying mechanism involved modulating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway to decrease ferroptosis. MS could be a promising treatment for intestinal I/R injury. |
