Rigosertib inhibits MEK1–ERK pathway and alleviates lipopolysaccharide‐induced sepsis

Abstract: Background Here, by using the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced mice sepsis model, we treated septic wild‐type (WT) mice or MEK1DD mice with rigosertib to evaluate its prospective effects on sepsis. Methods We also generated macrophages derived from bone marrow from WT or MEK1DD mice. These macrophages were pretreated with rigosertib and then induced with LPS or poly I:C. Results Rigosertib suppressed LPS or poly I:C‐induced expression of inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor‐alpha [TNF‐α] and interleuk… Show more

“…The RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signaling axis drives cytokine production in macrophages upon LPS activation, and MEK1/2 inhibitors have been shown to block the release of cytokines and decrease mortality in mouse models of sepsis. [24][25][26][27] Studies have also demonstrated the effectiveness of MEK1/2 inhibitors in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as collagen induced arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and lung diseases. [25,[27][28][29] In addition to the seven MEK1/2 inhibitors, five other kinase inhibitors also scored significantly in the secondary assay and modulated the expression of specific cytokines.…”

“…Whether this effect on CD40 is due to Ras-Raf signaling or to the dependence of CD40 function upon ROS induction [43,44] is not yet clear. Finally, in a non-cancer related study, Wang et al studied lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis, using rigosertib as a MEK1-ERK signaling inhibitor, concluding that it prevented the production of proinflammatory cytokines induced by LPS by disrupting the activation of the MEK1-ERK signaling axis [45].…”

“… 150 Intriguingly, researchers discovered in an LPS-induced sepsis mouse model that rigosertib improved the inflammatory response by inhibiting the MEK1-ERK signaling pathway. 151 In LPS-treated HUVECs and a mouse cecum ligation (CLP)-induced sepsis model, findings suggest that the upregulation of PCSK9 activates the TLR4/MyD88/NF-кB and NLRP3 pathways, inducing inflammation and resulting in endothelial dysfunction. Therefore, inhibiting PCSK9 may represent a novel strategy to improve vascular endothelial function in sepsis.…”
