IRE1-RACK1 axis orchestrates ER stress preconditioning-elicited cytoprotection from ischemia/reperfusion injury in liver.

ABSTRACT: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is involved in ischemic preconditioning that protects various organs from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. We established an in vivo ER stress preconditioning model in which tunicamycin was injected into rats before hepatic I/R. The hepatic I/R injury, demonstrated by serum aminotransferase level and the ultra-structure of the liver, was alleviated by administration of tunicamycin, which induced ER stress in rat liver by activating inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) and upregulating 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP78). The proteomic identification for IRE1 binders revealed interaction and cooperation among receptor for activated C kinase 1 (RACK1), phosphorylated AMPK, and IRE1 under ER stress conditions in a spatiotemporal manner. Furthermore, in vitro ER stress preconditioning was induced by thapsigargin and tunicamycin in L02 and HepG2 cells. Surprisingly, BCL2 was found to be phosphorylated by IRE1 under ER stress conditions to prevent apoptotic process by activation of autophagy. In conclusion, ER stress preconditioning protects against hepatic I/R injury, which is orchestrated by IRE1-RACK1 axis through the activation of BCL2. Our findings provide novel insights into the molecular pathways underlying ER stress preconditioning-elicited cytoprotective effect against hepatic I/R injury.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough AKI lacks effective therapeutic approaches, preventive strategies using preconditioning protocols, including caloric restriction and hypoxic preconditioning, have been shown to prevent injury in animal models. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie the enhanced resistance to AKI conferred by such approaches is needed to facilitate clinical use. We hypothesized that these preconditioning strategies use similar pathways to augment cellular stress resistance.MethodsTo identify genes and pathways shared by caloric restriction and hypoxic preconditioning, we used RNA-sequencing transcriptome profiling to compare the transcriptional response with both modes of preconditioning in mice before and after renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.ResultsThe gene expression signatures induced by both preconditioning strategies involve distinct common genes and pathways that overlap significantly with the transcriptional changes observed after ischemia-reperfusion injury. These changes primarily affect oxidation-reduction processes and have a major effect on mitochondrial processes. We found that 16 of the genes differentially regulated by both modes of preconditioning were strongly correlated with clinical outcome; most of these genes had not previously been directly linked to AKI.ConclusionsThis comparative analysis of the gene expression signatures in preconditioning strategies shows overlapping patterns in caloric restriction and hypoxic preconditioning, pointing toward common molecular mechanisms. Our analysis identified a limited set of target genes not previously known to be associated with AKI; further study of their potential to provide the basis for novel preventive strategies is warranted. To allow for optimal interactive usability of the data by the kidney research community, we provide an online interface for user-defined interrogation of the gene expression datasets (http://shiny.cecad.uni-koeln.de:3838/IRaP/).
