description | Ferroptosis plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Liraglutide, as a GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, has exhibited extensive biological effects beyond its hypoglycemic action. Recent studies have shed light on the regulatory influence of Liraglutide on ferroptosis, yet the precise underlying mechanism remains elusive. GLP-1(9–37), as a metabolite of GLP-1, has a low affinity to GLP-1R. Its effect on ferroptosis remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of Liraglutide and GLP-1(9–37) on the ferroptosis during hepatic ischemia-repferfusion (I/R), as well as the underlying specific mechanisms. We found that the administration of Liraglutide alleviated I/R-induced liver injury with less iron accumulation and lower lipid peroxidation, which was not entirely dependent on the presence of GLP-1R. Similarly, GLP-1(9–37) also exhibited these effects. Besides, both of them increased GPX4 expression and decreased COX2 expression. These effects were reversed by a High-Iron Diet. In vitro study showed similar results. In mechanism study, we found that both Liraglutide and GLP-1(9–37) treatment promoted the nuclear translocation of Nrf2 by inhibiting GSK-3β, thereby reducing lipid peroxides. Furthermore, they increased FTH and FTL expression via the SMAD159/Hepcidin pathway, which contributed to the decreased iron accumulation. In conclusion, this study determined that both Liraglutide and GLP-1(9–37) alleviated hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) by suppressing ferroptosis via the activation of the GSK3β/Nrf2 pathway and the SMAD159/Hepcidin/FTH pathway. |
