ROCK Inhibition Drives Resolution of Acute Inflammation by Enhancing Neutrophil Apoptosis

Abstract: Uncontrolled inflammation leads to tissue damage and it is central for the development of chronic inflammatory diseases and autoimmunity. An acute inflammatory response is finely regulated by the action of anti-inflammatory and pro-resolutive mediators, culminating in the resolution of inflammation and restoration of homeostasis. There are few studies investigating intracellular signaling pathways associated with the resolution of inflammation. Here, we investigate the role of Rho-associated kinase (ROCK), a s… Show more

“…Inflammation is the consequence of an innate immune response of the host to stimuli such as pathogens (e.g., bacteria, fungi, viruses), allergens, or toxic chemicals and pollutants [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. The steps in the inflammatory response can be defined as (1) induction, (2) peak, and (3) resolution [ 1 , 2 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. The induction phase involves innate immune cells (e.g., macrophages) detecting the pathogen or other foreign agent and orchestrating the recruitment of other innate immune cells (e.g., neutrophils, eosinophils) to the site of infection and/or injury [ 1 , 2 , 5 , 6 , 7 ].…”

The peak of inflammation involves recruited innate immune cells (e.g., macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils) engulfing pathogens or inhaled agents, triggering key defensive mechanisms, notably the generation of reactive oxygen species (i.e., respiratory burst) from macrophages and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) from recruited neutrophils [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ].…”
