Fig. 1. Acetoacetate activates FFAR2 in HEK293 cells overexpressing the receptor. HEK293 cells overexpressing FFAR2 were activated with different concentrations of (A) propionate and (B) acetoacetate (AA), and cAMP was measured in the presence of 1 μM forskolin. Data obtained were fitted to dose–response curves (mean ± SD, n = 3 independent experiments), and EC50 values were calculated. EC50 was 410 μM (95% CI: 199 to 827 µM) for propionate and 1.24 mM (95% CI: 0.45 to 3.60 mM) for AA. (C) β-Arrestin translocation was measured continuously over time upon stimulation with acetoacetate 10 mM (closed triangles) and compared to background activity when no stimulus was added (open squares). The control shows the level of luminescence before addition of both stimuli and Nano-Glo reagent. (D) Bar graph showing the fold increase of peak values, compared to time-matched background activity, upon stimulation with propionate (black bar) and AA (white bars). The dotted line indicates the level of background activity. Data are presented as a mean ± SD (n = 3 individual experiments), and statistical analysis was performed using ratio paired t test (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01).

Fig. 2. Acetoacetate triggers a transient rise in intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) in human neutrophils. (A, B) Human neutrophils were loaded with Fura-2 AM and stimulated with different concentrations of (A) propionate or (B) acetoacetate (AA). (C) Neutrophils were incubated with (dashed line) or without (solid line) the FFAR2 antagonist CATPB (100 nM) and then stimulated with AA (10 mM). (D, E) Neutrophils were incubated with (dashed line) and without (solid line) Cmp58 (1 μM) for 10 min and then stimulated with (D) propionate (25 µM) or (E) AA (3 mM). The rise in [Ca2+]i is presented as the ratio between Fura-2 fluorescence at 340 and 380 nm over time, and 1 representative experiment out of 3 independent experiments is shown.

Fig. 5. Acetoacetate activates allosterically modulated FFAR2 to produce extracellular ROS partially through Gαq signaling and trigger intracellular ROS production without NETosis. (A) Neutrophils preincubated for 5 min in the absence (white bars) or presence (black bars) of Gαq-specific inhibitor YM-254890 (200 nM) together with the FFAR2 allosteric modulator Cmp58 (1 μM) were stimulated with acetoacetate (AA, 10 mM), propionate (25 µM), or PAF (100 nM). The result is presented as remaining peak activity in response to stimulation comparing YM-254890 pretreated cells to untreated (mean ± SD, n = 3 individual experiments). (B) Intracellular production of oxygen radicals in response to AA (1 mM) was measured over time in neutrophils pretreated with (dotted line) and without (dashed line) Cmp58 (1 μM) for 5 min. Stimulation with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA; 50 nM) was performed in parallel as a reference (solid line). (C) Summary of the peak intracellular radical production (mean ± SD, n = 5 independent experiments) induced by AA (1 mM) in neutrophils preincubated with and without Cmp58 (1 μM) for 5 min. (D) Neutrophil NETosis (mean ± SD; n = 3 independent experiments) was determined by measuring levels of nucleic acid exposed extracellularly (using Sytox Green staining) over time in response to stimulation with PMA (50 nM, line with filled squares), AA (10 mM, line with triangles), and AA (10 mM) in presence of Cmp58 (1 μM, line with diamonds). The background level of fluorescence is included as a reference (no additive, line with open squares). Statistical analysis in A and C was performed by a ratio paired t test and for D by using a repeated-measures 1-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test against no additive for values at time point 180 min (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01).
