Suppression of BMP-7 by histone deacetylase 2 promoted apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells in acute kidney injury.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin, a highly effective and widely used chemotherapeutic agent, has a major limitation for its nephrotoxicity. Currently, there are no therapies available to treat or prevent cisplatin nephrotoxicity. We recently identified a novel strategy for attenuating its nephrotoxicity in chemotherapy by histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors via epigenetic modification to enhance bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) expression. Cisplatin upregulated the activity of HDAC2 in the kidney. Inhibition of HDAC with clinically used trichostatin A (TSA) or valproic acid (VPA) suppressed cisplatin-induced kidney injury and epithelial cell apoptosis. Overexpression of HDAC2 promotes CP-treated tubular epithelium cells apoptosis. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay clearly detected HDAC2 assosiation with BMP-7 promoter. Western blot and immunofluorescence results demonstrated that the expression of BMP-7 was clearly induced by TSA or VPA in vivo and in vitro. Interestingly, administration of recombinant BMP-7 (rhBMP-7) reduced cisplatin-induced kidney dysfunction. Moreover, BMP-7 treatment suppressed epithelial cell apoptosis and small interfering RNA-based knockdown of BMP-7 expression abolished HDAC inhibitors suppression of epithelial cell apoptosis in vitro. Results of current study indicated that TSA or VPA inhibited apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells via promoting the level of BMP-7 epigenetically through targeting HDAC2. Hence, HDAC inhibitors could be useful therapeutic agents for the prevention of cisplatin nephrotoxicity.

A potential adjuvant chemotherapeutics, 18?-glycyrrhetinic acid, inhibits renal tubular epithelial cells apoptosis via enhancing BMP-7 epigenetically through targeting HDAC2.

Project description:Cisplatin, a highly effective and widely used chemotherapeutic agent, has a major limitation for its nephrotoxicity. We recently identified a novel strategy for attenuating its nephrotoxicity in chemotherapy by an effective adjuvant via epigenetic modification through targeting HDAC2. Molecular docking and SPR assay firstly reported that 18?GA, major metabolite of GA, could directly bind to HDAC2 and inhibit the activity of HDAC2. The effects and mechanisms of GA and 18?GA were assessed in CP-induced AKI in C57BL/6 mice, and in CP-treated HK-2 and mTEC cells lines. TUNEL and FCM results confirmed that GA and 18?GA could inhibit apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells induced by CP in vivo and in vitro. Western blot and immunofluorescence results demonstrated that the expression of BMP-7 was clearly induced by 18?GA in AKI models while siRNA BMP-7 could reduce the inhibitory effect of 18?GA on apoptosis. Results of current study indicated that 18?GA inhibited apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells via enhancing the level of BMP-7 epigenetically through targeting HDAC2, therefore protecting against CP-induced AKI. These available evidence, which led to an improved understanding of molecular recognition, suggested that 18?GA could serve as a potential clinical adjuvant in chemotherapy.

Drosophila histone deacetylase-3 controls imaginal disc size through suppression of apoptosis.

Project description:Histone deacetylases (HDACs) execute biological regulation through post-translational modification of chromatin and other cellular substrates. In humans, there are eleven HDACs, organized into three distinct subfamilies. This large number of HDACs raises questions about functional overlap and division of labor among paralogs. In vivo roles are simpler to address in Drosophila, where there are only five HDAC family members and only two are implicated in transcriptional control. Of these two, HDAC1 has been characterized genetically, but its most closely related paralog, HDAC3, has not. Here we describe the isolation and phenotypic characterization of hdac3 mutations. We find that both hdac3 and hdac1 mutations are dominant suppressors of position effect variegation, suggesting functional overlap in heterochromatin regulation. However, all five hdac3 loss-of-function alleles are recessive lethal during larval/pupal stages, indicating that HDAC3 is essential on its own for Drosophila development. The mutant larvae display small imaginal discs, which result from abnormally elevated levels of apoptosis. This cell death occurs as a cell-autonomous response to HDAC3 loss and is accompanied by increased expression of the pro-apoptotic gene, hid. In contrast, although HDAC1 mutants also display small imaginal discs, this appears to result from reduced proliferation rather than from elevated apoptosis. The connection between HDAC loss and apoptosis is important since HDAC inhibitors show anticancer activities in animal models through mechanisms involving apoptotic induction. However, the specific HDACs implicated in tumor cell killing have not been identified. Our results indicate that protein deacetylation by HDAC3 plays a key role in suppression of apoptosis in Drosophila imaginal tissue.

Upregulation of lncRNA NONRATG019935.2 suppresses the p53-mediated apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells in septic acute kidney injury.

Project description:Although increasing evidence has confirmed that the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) is a crucial contributor to the onset and development of septic acute kidney injury (AKI), the pathological mechanism by which RTEC apoptosis is upregulated during septic AKI is not entirely clear. In this study, a rat model of septic AKI was induced by a cecal ligation puncture procedure or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection. Four differentially expressed long noncoding RNAs (DE-Lncs) in the rat model of septic AKI were determined using RNA-sequencing and verified by qRT-PCR. Among the four DE-Lncs, the expression level of lncRNA NONRATG019935.2 (9935) exhibited the most significant reduction in both septic AKI rats and LPS-treated NRK-52E cells (a rat RTEC line). The overexpression of 9935 suppressed cell apoptosis and p53 protein level in LPS-treated NRK-52E cells, and retarded septic AKI development in the rat model of septic AKI. Mechanistically, 9935 decreased the human antigen R (HuR)-mediated Tp53 mRNA stability by limiting the combination of HuR and the 3'UTR region of Tp53 mRNA in RTECs. The overexpression of HuR abrogated the inhibitory effect of pcDNA-9935 on the LPS-induced apoptosis of NRK-52E and rat primary RTECs. In conclusion, 9935 exerts its role in septic AKI by suppressing the p53-mediated apoptosis of RTECs, and this essential role of 9935 relies on its destructive effect on HuR-mediated Tp53 mRNA stability.

TRIP13-deficient tubular epithelial cells are susceptible to apoptosis following acute kidney injury.

Project description:Damage to renal tubular epithelial cells by genetic, environmental, or biological insults can initiate complex signaling mechanisms that promote kidney repair and functional recovery. In this study, we demonstrated that thyroid receptor interacting protein 13 (TRIP13) is a critical modulator of tubular epithelial cell repair following ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), a common type of renal stressor. In Trip13Gt/Gthypomorph mice treated with unilateral renal IRI, persistent tubular epithelial cell damage was determined in the IRI-treated kidney throughout the 168?hours of experimental period compared to the contralateral kidneys. The damaged epithelial cells were associated with increased levels of DNA damage (?H2AX) and apoptotic markers (p53, cleaved caspase-7, and TUNEL-positive cells). Correspondingly, TRIP13 was found to directly interact with Tetratricopeptide Repeat Domain 5 (TTC5), a p53 co-factor, and genetic knockdown of TRIP13 in murine inner medullary collecting duct cells in the presence of hydrogen peroxide showed increased activity of p53 at Serine 15. In all, these studies suggest that insufficient TRIP13 increased the susceptibility of damaged tubular epithelial cells to progress towards apoptotic cell death.

MicroRNA 181a-2-3p Alleviates the Apoptosis of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells via Targeting GJB2 in Sepsis-Induced Acute Kidney Injury.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common complication of sepsis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the sepsis-induced AKI. This paper aimed to explore the role of miRNA 181a-2-3p (miR-181a-2-3p) in the sepsis-induced AKI and the underlying mechanism. Our results revealed that miR-181a-2-3p showed low expression levels in patients with sepsis and mouse models undergoing cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The addition of miR-181a-2-3p antagonists aggravated the sepsis-induced kidney injuries and inflammatory response in CLP mouse models, as suggested by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). In addition, miR-181a-2-3p mimic alleviated the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response, along with apoptosis of TCMK-1. Moreover, results from the GSE46955 data set indicated that GJB2 was highly expressed in septic patients but lowly expressed after recovery. Further, the dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay were carried out, which confirmed that GJB2 was a target of miR-181a-2-3p, and overexpression of GJB2 reversed the anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects of miR-181a-2-3p mimic on the LPS-induced sepsis cell models. In conclusion, miR-181a-2-3p alleviates the inflammatory response and cell apoptosis of septic patients and animal models by upregulating GJB2 expression, which may provide a new therapeutic strategy for sepsis.

Histone deacetylase inhibitors protect against cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury by activating autophagy in proximal tubular cells.

Project description:Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have therapeutic effects in models of various renal diseases including acute kidney injury (AKI); however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that two widely tested HDACi (suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) and trichostatin A (TSA)) protect the kidneys in cisplatin-induced AKI by enhancing autophagy. In cultured renal proximal tubular cells, SAHA and TSA enhanced autophagy during cisplatin treatment. We further verified the protective effect of TSA against cisplatin-induced apoptosis in these cells. Notably, inhibition of autophagy by chloroquine or by autophagy gene 7 (Atg7) ablation diminished the protective effect of TSA. In mice, TSA increased autophagy in renal proximal tubules and protected against cisplatin-induced AKI. The in vivo effect of TSA was also abolished by chloroquine and by Atg7 knockout specifically from renal proximal tubules. Mechanistically, TSA stimulated AMPK and inactivated mTOR during cisplatin treatment of proximal tubule cells and kidneys in mice. Together, these results suggest that HDACi may protect kidneys by activating autophagy in proximal tubular cells.

C/EBP⍺ Aggravated Ferroptosis and Apoptosis in Renal Tubular Epithelial Cell

Project description:Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is widely recognized for its rapid deterioration in renal function, often resulting in unfavorable clinical outcomes. An increase in the expression of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBP⍺) has been observed in both human and mouse kidneys affected by AKI. We unraveled the downstream pathway of C/EBP⍺ through RNA-sequencing, confirming our findings with qRT-PCR and luciferase reporter assays. Furthermore, we identified a potential target for AKI reversal in a murine AKI model.

Farnesoid X receptor promotes renal ischaemia-reperfusion injury by inducing tubular epithelial cell apoptosis.

Project description:PurposeWe investigated the role of farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a ligand-dependent transcription factor, in renal ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.Materials and methodsWe performed unilateral renal I/R model in FXR knockout (Fxr-/- ) and wild-type (WT) mice in vivo and a hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) model in vitro. The pathways by which FXR induces apoptosis were detected using a proteome profiler array. The effects of FXR on apoptosis were evaluated using immunoblotting, TUNEL assays and flow cytometry.ResultsCompared with WT mice, Fxr-/- mice showed improved renal function and reduced tubular injury scores and apoptosis. Consistent with the in vivo results, the silencing of FXR decreased the number of apoptotic HK-2 cells after H/R, while FXR overexpression aggravated apoptosis. Notably, bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and immunohistochemistry experiments revealed the involvement of FXR in the tubular epithelium rather than in inflammatory cells. Furthermore, in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrated that FXR deficiency increased phosphorylated Bcl-2 agonist of cell death (p-Bad) expression levels and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bcl-xL to Bax expression in the kidney. Treatment with wortmannin, which reduced p-Bad expression, inhibited the effects of FXR deficiency and eliminated the tolerance of Fxr-/- mouse kidneys to I/R injury.ConclusionsThese results established the pivotal importance of FXR inactivation in tubular epithelial cells after I/R injury. FXR may promote the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells by inhibiting PI3k/Akt-mediated Bad phosphorylation to cause renal I/R damage.

HRD1 prevents apoptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells by mediating eIF2α ubiquitylation and degradation.

Project description:Apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells is a key feature of the pathogenicity associated with tubulointerstitial fibrosis and other kidney diseases. One factor that regulates important cellular processes like apoptosis and cell proliferation is HRD1, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that acts by promoting ubiquitylation and degradation of its target protein. However, the detailed mechanisms by which HRD1 acts as a regulator of apoptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells have not been established. In our previous liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) study (Mol Endocrinol. 2016;30:600-613), we demonstrated that one substrate of HRD1 was eIF2α, a critical protein in the PERK-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP signaling pathway of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Here, we show that eIF2α expression was increased and HRD1 expression decreased when apoptosis was induced in HKC-8 cells by palmitic acid (PA) or high glucose (HG). HRD1 expression was also lower in kidney tissues from mice with diabetic nephropathy (DN) than in control mice. Forced expression of HRD1 also inhibited apoptosis in HKC-8 cells, while HRD1 overexpression decreased the expression of phosphorylated eIF2α and eIF2α. Further analysis indicated that HRD1 interacted with eIF2α and promoted its ubiquitylation and degradation by the proteasome. Moreover, the HRD1 protection of PA-treated HKC-8 cells was blunted by transfection with Myc-eIF2α. Thus, eIF2α ubiquitylation by HRD1 protects tubular epithelial cells from apoptosis caused by HG and PA, indicating a novel upstream target for therapeutic prevention of renal tubulointerstitial injury.

Autophagy Limits Endotoxemic Acute Kidney Injury and Alters Renal Tubular Epithelial Cell Cytokine Expression.

Project description:Sepsis related acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common in-hospital complication with a dismal prognosis. Our incomplete understanding of disease pathogenesis has prevented the identification of hypothesis-driven preventive or therapeutic interventions. Increasing evidence in ischemia-reperfusion and nephrotoxic mouse models of AKI support the theory that autophagy protects renal tubular epithelial cells (RTEC) from injury. However, the role of RTEC autophagy in septic AKI remains unclear. We observed that lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a mediator of gram-negative bacterial sepsis, induces RTEC autophagy in vivo and in vitro through TLR4-initiated signaling. We modeled septic AKI through intraperitoneal LPS injection in mice in which autophagy-related protein 7 was specifically knocked out in the renal proximal tubules (ATG7KO). Compared to control littermates, ATG7KO mice developed more severe renal dysfunction (24hr BUN 100.1mg/dl +/- 14.8 vs 54.6mg/dl +/- 11.3) and parenchymal injury. After injection with LPS, analysis of kidney lysates identified higher IL-6 expression and increased STAT3 activation in kidney lysates from ATG7KO mice compared to controls. In vitro experiments confirmed an altered response to LPS in RTEC with genetic or pharmacological impairment of autophagy. In conclusion, RTEC autophagy protects against endotoxin induced injury and regulates downstream effects of RTEC TLR4 signaling.
