1. Introduction Acute lung injury comprises a uniform response of the lung to inflammatory or chemical insults which is commonly caused by systemic illness including sepsis or trauma, infection with pathogens, and toxic gas inhalation. Sepsis-induced acute lung injury is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, imposing substantial economic, social, and health burdens. Despite advances in knowledge of septic pulmonary pathologies over the years, efficient targeted therapies are still lacking. Notably, NMN administration has been uncovered to be effective in alleviating sepsis-induced acute lung injury, which can reduce cellular inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. 2. The impact of NMN upon macrophage polarization in LPS-induced MH-S cells In mouse alveolar macrophage cell line MH-S treated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), NMN can facilitate the transformation of macrophages from pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype towards the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype to promote inflammatory resolution and tissue repair, as evidenced by the downregulation of M1 phenotype-associated markers (iNOS and CD86+ F4/80+) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6) as well as the upregulation of M2 phenotype-related markers (Arg1 and CD86+ F4/80+) and anti-inflammatory mediators (IL-10) post NMN administration. 3. The alleviation of LPS-induced lung injury post NMN administration In vitro, NMN represses the apoptosis and production of pro-inflammatory factors in LPS-stimulated MH-S cells. In vivo, NMN explicitly ameliorates LPS-induced pathological alterations, encompassing thickened alveolar wall, inflammatory cell infiltration, septa swelling, and erythrocyte exudation, in a murine septic model. 4. The association of SIRT1/NF-κB signaling activation with NMN-mediated macrophage polarization SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway is involved in the lung protection of NMN, as manifested by the elevated expression of SIRT1 as well as the reduced acetylation and phosphorylation of NF-κB-p65 post NMN treatment. Repression of SIRT1/NF-κB signaling offsets NMN-mediated M2 macrophage polarization. SIRT1 inhibitor EX-527 decreases the expression of SIRT1, yet increases the expression of acetylated and phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 in septic mice pretreated with NMN. In contrast to NMN, EX-527 overtly promotes the expression levels of M1 macrophage-associated markers (iNOS and CD86) while inhibiting those of M2 phenotype-related markers (Arg1 and CD206). 5. Conclusion NMN can effectively ameliorate LPS-induced acute lung injury through modulating macrophage polarization via SIRT1/NF-κB signalling pathway, providing a novel therapeutic direction for sepsis-induced acute lung injury. 6.

1. Introduction The NAD precursor nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) shows a beneficial effect on ageing, yet excessive NMN accumulation may lead to axon degeneration. How to make the anti-ageing effect of NMN compatible with axonal degeneration caused by NMN accumulation is still a challenge. A preliminary discussion on this issue is conducted in this study. 2. The definition and pathological changes of axonal degeneration Axonal degeneration refers to degenerative changes in the axon as a result of direct damage to the primary or as a result of diseases such as neuronal metabolic disorders, which is a common pathological change of the nervous system. The pathological changes after axonal injury include axonal swelling, fracture, retraction and atrophy. 3. The relationship between NMN and sterile alpha and TIR motif–containing 1 (SARM1) SARM1 is a multi-functional enzyme with base exchange activity, which can cleave nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) into adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR), cyclic adenosine diphosphate ribose (cADPR) and nicotinamide (NAM). A substantial body of evidence mirrors that the degenerative enzyme SARM1 will be bound to and be activated by NMN. Hence, failed conversion of sufficient NMN into NAD may give rise to toxic NMN accumulation and axon degeneration. 4. The specific pathway of axon degeneration NMN only induces axon degeneration in the presence of SARM1, placing the toxic accumulation on a common pathway of axon death. Notably, nicotinamide mononucleotideadenylyltransferases (NMNATs) has a broader, compartment-specific regulatory role in SARM1 activity. For instance, NMNAT2 depletion is associated with SARM1 activation in axons. In a nutshell, NMNAT2 depletion can give rise to NMN accumulation. Next, NMN binds to and activates the pro-degenerative protein SARM1, leading to rapid NAD consumption and axon degeneration. 5. The impacts of NAD precursors upon axonal health NAD precursors are likely to be safe for most people, but there is a risk for people with compromised NMNAT activity, as these supplements could cause SARM1 activation and neurodegeneration. In healthy individuals, rapid conversion from NMN into NAD can be accomplished by NMNAT2, which is conductive to the prevention of NMN toxic accumulation and maintenance of healthy neurons and axons. Yet, downregulation of NMNAT2 level or activity may result in the upregulation of NMN, thereby leading to SARM1 activation, increased axonal vulnerability and/or axon degeneration. 6. The factors for SARM1 activity SARM1 activity is regulated by a ratio between NMN and NAD. When NMN rises, partial inhibition of SARM1 is only seen at high concentrations of NAD. Inefficient conversion of NMN into NAD because of compromised NMNAT activity is the most likely scenario in which NMN can become toxic. The change in NMN level close to the physiological concentration has a much more significant impact on SARM1 activity than NAD level. A twofold increase in NAD level is not sufficient to delay axon degeneration after injury, and even higher NAD level only temporarily delays axon degeneration. 7. The interaction between SARM1 activation and ageing effect of NMN Sub-lethal/chronic SARM1 activation could increase axonal vulnerability or have a significant impact upon NAD homeostasis and important intracellular signalling pathways in neurons.It is pivotal for life to preserve NAD homeostasis. Maintaining NAD homeostasis could be a viable anti-ageing strategy. Similarly, NMNAT2 depletion increases axon vulnerability and the level of the NMNAT2 is declined with ageing. These findings signify that SARM1 and NMNAT2 may be the key factor to reconcile the axonal degeneration caused by the accumulation of the NAD precursor NMN and ageing effect of NMN. 8. Conclusion Efficient conversion of NMN into NAD is key to preventing SARM1 activation and neurotoxicity. SARM1 and NMNAT2 may be the intersection factors between axon degeneration and anti-ageing therapy.
