Omega-3 fatty acids
Subarachnoid hemorrhage
a b s t r a c t
Omega-3 fatty acids have been reported to improve neuron functions during aging and in patients affected
by mild cognitive impairment, and mediate potent anti-inammatory via G protein-coupled receptor 120
(GPR120) signal pathway. Neuron dysfunction and inammatory response also contributed to the progression of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-induced early brain injury (EBI). This study was to examine
the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on SAH-induced EBI. Two weeks before SAH, 30% Omega-3 fatty acids
was administered by oral gavage at 1 g/kg body weight once every 24 h. Specic siRNA for GPR120 was
exploited. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling, uoro-Jade B staining, and
neurobehavioral scores and brain water content test showed that omega-3 fatty acids effectively suppressed SAH-induced brain cell apoptosis and neuronal degradation, behavioral impairment, and brain
edema. Western blot, immunoprecipitation, and electrophoretic mobility shift assays results showed
that omega-3 fatty acids effectively suppressed SAH-induced elevation of inammatory factors, including
cyclooxygenase-2, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and inducible nitric oxide synthase. In addition,
omega-3 fatty acids could inhibit phosphorylation of transforming growth factor activated kinase-1
(TAK1), MEK4, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, and IkappaB kinase as well as activation of nuclear factor kappa B
through regulating GPR120/-arrestin2/TAK1 binding protein-1 pathway. Furthermore, siRNA-induced
GPR120 silencing blocked the protective effects of omega-3 fatty acids. Here, we show that stimulation
of GPR120 with omega-3 fatty acids pretreatment causes anti-apoptosis and anti-inammatory effects
via -arrestin2/TAK1 binding protein-1/TAK1 pathway in the brains of SAH rats. Fish omega-3 fatty acids
as part of a daily diet may reduce EBI in an experimental rat model of SAH.

a 30-component methyl ester standard (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). Fatty

for behavioral impairment using a previously published scoring system and monitored for appetite, activity, and neurological
defects (Table 1) (Cui et al., 2015).

2.11. Immunouorescence staining
FJB (Histo-Chem) staining served as a marker of neuronal degeneration. Brain sections were deparafnized and rehydrated as
described in TUNEL staining section. Then, the slides were incubated in 0.06% K permanganate solution (Sigma-Aldrich) for 15 min.
Slides were then rinsed in deionized water and immersed in
0.001% uoro-jade working solution for 30 min. Then they were
washed and dried in an incubator (5060 C) for 10 min. Sections
were cleared in xylene and coverslipped with a non-aqueous,

5% bovine serum albumin (BIOSHARP) for 1 h at room temperature. The membrane was then incubated overnight at 4 C with
primary antibodies against GPR120 (Santa Cruz, 1:1000 dilution),
cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2, Cell Signaling Technology, 1:2000 dilution), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1, Abcam, 1:2000
dilution), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS, Abcam, 1:2000
dilution), Phos-TAK1 (Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1500 dilution), Phos-MEK4 (Abcam, 1:1000 dilution), Phos-c-Jun N-terminal
kinase (Phos-JNK, Cell Signaling Technology, 1:1000 dilution), and
Phos-IkappaB kinase (Phos- IKK, Abcam, 1:1000 dilution). The
primary antibody against glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) was diluted 1:5000 and served as the loading
control. The membrane was then incubated with HRP-conjugated
secondary antibodies (Santa Cruz, 1:5000 dilution) for 2 h at room
temperature. The band signal was developed using SuperSignal
West Pico chemiluminescent substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientic).
The relative quantity of proteins was analyzed using Image J and
normalized to that of the loading control. Phosphorylation levels
were evaluated by the ratio of phosphoprotein to loading control.
2.13. Immunoprecipitation analysis
For immunoprecipitation, the brain tissue lysate was incubated
with specic antibodies against -arrestin2 (Santa Cruz, 2 g per
500 g of total protein in 1 mL lysate), TAK1 (Santa Cruz, 2 g per
500 g of total protein in 1 mL lysate) or normal mouse IgG (negative control) overnight at 4 C with rotary agitation. Protein A + G
Sepharose beads (Beyotime) were then added to each immune
complex and the lysate-bead mixture was incubated for 4 h at 4 C
with rotary agitation. The sample was then centrifuged at 1000g
for 5 min at 4 C and the supernatant was discarded. The beads
were rinsed 3 times with lysate, and 4 SDS sample buffer was
added. Finally, the samples were boiled at 100 C for 5 min and then
centrifuged at 1000g for 5 min at 4 C. The supernatant was collected, and SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting were then performed
for further protein separation and detection.
2.14. EMSA
Nuclear extracts were prepared from the cortical tissues.
EMSA was performed by a commercial kit (Gel Shift Assay
System; Promega). The nuclear factor kappa B (NF-B) oligonucleotide probe (5 -AGTTGAGGGGACTTTCCCAGGC-3 ), which was

Fig. 9. Mode pattern illustrating the possible mechanisms underlying omega-3 fatty acids-mediated protective effects on EBI after SAH. Blue colored letters and arrows indicate
the omega-3-mediated anti-apoptosis and anti-inammation effects, and black colored letters and arrows indicate the SAH-induced pro-apoptosis and pro-inammation
pathway. SAH activates TAK1 by causing the association of TAB1 with TAK1, and subsequently activates TAK1-NF-B axis. Omega-3 fatty acids pretreatment leads to the
associations of GPR120/-arrestin 2 and -arrestin 2/TAB1, which largely blocks TAK1/TAB1 association. When there is insufcient TAB1 to activate TAK1, downstream IKK
and the key transcription factor NF-B are in the resting state. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids-induced protective effects were signicantly abolished by GPR120 silencing.
Red colored letters and arrows indicate the effects of GPR120 silencing. (For interpretation of the references to color in this gure legend, the reader is referred to the web
