LYLKPR derived from fermented yak milk demonstrated neuroprotective effects by ameliorating oxidative stress-mediated neuronal injury and inhibiting the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.
This study explored the neuroprotective effect of the peptide LYLKPR derived from fermented yak milk by Lactiplantibacillus plantarum JLAU103 on H2O2-injured HT-22 cells. Peptide LYLKPR showed good stability in the simulated gastrointestinal tract and strong penetrating ability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in vitro. LYLKPR could activate the Nrf2/Keap-1/HO-1 pathway, increase the activities of SOD and CAT, and reduce the levels of ROS and MDA in HT-22 cells. In addition, LYLKPR controlled the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by inhibiting the oxidative stress, ultimately preventing the cleavage of pro-IL-18 and pro-IL-1 beta by caspase-1, and reducing the level of intracellular mature IL-18 by 29.08%. Based on the molecular docking verification, LYLKPR could effectively bind to the Keap-1 protein, and directly inhibit the inflammasome to significantly increase intracellular BDNF, synaptophysin, and PSD95, and protect synaptic function. Collectively, LYLKPR ameliorated oxidative stress-mediated neuronal injury by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome via modulation of the Nrf2/Keap-1/HO-1 pathway.
