P16 INK4a Deletion Ameliorated Renal Tubulointerstitial Injury in a Stress-induced Premature Senescence Model of Bmi-1 Deficiency.

ABSTRACT: To determine whether p16 INK4a deletion ameliorated renal tubulointerstitial injury by inhibiting a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in Bmi-1-deficient (Bmi-1 -/-) mice, renal phenotypes were compared among 5-week-old Bmi-1 and p16 INK4a double-knockout, and Bmi-1 -/- and wild-type mice. Fifth-passage renal interstitial fibroblasts (RIFs) from the three groups were analyzed for senescence and proliferation. The effect of Bmi-1 deficiency on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was examined in Bmi-1-knockdown human renal proximal tubular epithelial (HK2) cells, which were treated with concentrated conditioned medium (CM) from the fifth-passage renal interstitial fibroblasts (RIFs) of above three group mice or with exogenous TGF-?1. Our results demonstrated that p16 INK4a deletion largely rescued renal aging phenotypes caused by Bmi-1 deficiency, including impaired renal structure and function, decreased proliferation, increased apoptosis, senescence and SASP, DNA damage, NF-?B and TGF-?1/Smad signal activation, inflammatory cell infiltration, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy. P16 INK4a deletion also promoted proliferation, reduced senescence and SASP of RIFs and subsequently inhibited EMT of Bmi-1-knockdown HK2 cells. TGF-?1 further induced the EMT of Bmi-1-knockdown HK2 cells. Thus, p16 INK4a positive senescent cells would be a therapeutic target for preventing renal tubulointerstitial injury.

Project description:This study aimed to determine whether Bmi-1 deficiency leads to intestinal epithelial barrier destruction and microbiota dysfunction, which members of the microbial community alter barrier function with age, and whether p16INK4a deletion could reverse the damage of intestinal epithelial barrier and microbial dysbiosis. Intestines from Bmi-1–deficient (Bmi-1–/–), Bmi-1 and p16INK4a double-knockout (Bmi-1–/–p16INK4a–/–), and wild-type mice were observed for aging and inflammation. Duolink Proximity Ligation Assay, immunoprecipitation, and construction of p16INK4a overexpressed adenovirus and the overexpressed plasmids of full-length, mutant, or truncated fragments for occludin were used for analyzing the interaction between p16INK4a and occludin. High-throughput sequencing of V4 region amplicon of 16S ribosomal RNA was conducted using intestinal microbiota. We found Bmi-1 deficiency destructed barrier structure, barrier function, and tight junction (TJ) in intestinal epithelium; decreased the TJ proteins; increased tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)–dependent barrier permeability; and up-regulated proinflammatory level of macrophages induced by intestinal microbial dysbiosis. The transplantation of fecal microbiota from wild-type mice ameliorated TJ in intestinal epithelium of Bmi-1–/– and Bmi-1–/–p16INK4a–/– mice. Harmful bacteria including Desulfovibrio, Helicobacter, and Oscillibacter were at a higher level in Bmi-1–/– mice. More harmful bacteria Desulfovibrio entered the epithelium and promoted macrophages-secreted TNF-α and caused TNF-α–dependent barrier permeability and aging. Accumulated p16INK4a combined with occludin at the 1st–160th residue in cytoplasm of intestinal epithelium cells from Bmi-1–/– mice, which blocked formation of TJ and the repair of intestinal epithelium barrier. P16INK4a deletion could maintain barrier function and microbiota balance in Bmi-1–/– mice through strengthening formation of TJ and decreasing macrophages-secreted TNF-α induced by Desulfovibrio entering the intestinal epithelium. Thus, Bmi-1 maintained intestinal TJ, epithelial barrier function, and microbiota balance through preventing senescence characterized by p16INK4a accumulation. The clearance of p16INK4a-positive cells in aging intestinal epithelium would be a new method for maintaining barrier function and microbiota balance. The residues 1–160 of occludin could be a novel therapeutic target for identifying small molecular antagonistic peptides to prevent the combination of p16INK4a with occludin for protecting TJ.
