Periostin Promotes Cell Proliferation and Macrophage Polarization to Drive Repair after AKI.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The matricellular protein periostin has been associated with CKD progression in animal models and human biopsy specimens. Periostin functions by interacting with extracellular matrix components to drive collagen fibrillogenesis and remodeling or by signaling through cell-surface integrin receptors to promote cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. However, its role in AKI is unknown.

Methods

We used mice with conditional tubule-specific overexpression of periostin or knockout mice lacking periostin expression in the renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model, and primary cultures of isolated tubular cells in a hypoxia-reoxygenation model.

Results

Tubular epithelial cells showed strong production of periostin during the repair phase of ischemia reperfusion. Periostin overexpression protected mice from renal injury compared with controls, whereas knockout mice showed increased tubular injury and deteriorated renal function. Periostin interacted with its receptor, integrin-?1, to inhibit tubular cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in in vivo and in vitro models. After ischemia-reperfusion injury, periostin-overexpressing mice exhibited diminished expression of proinflammatory molecules and had more F4/80⁺ macrophages compared with knockout mice. Macrophages from periostin-overexpressing mice showed increased proliferation and expression of proregenerative factors after ischemia-reperfusion injury, whereas knockout mice exhibited the opposite. Coculturing a macrophage cell line with hypoxia-treated primary tubules overexpressing periostin, or treating such macrophages with recombinant periostin, directly induced macrophage proliferation and expression of proregenerative molecules.

Conclusions

In contrast to the detrimental role of periostin in CKD, we discovered a protective role of periostin in AKI. Our findings suggest periostin may be a novel and important mediator of mechanisms controlling renal repair after AKI.

Project description:Crush syndrome (CS) is a life-threatening illness in traffic accidents and earthquakes. Crush syndrome-induced acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) is considered to be mainly due to myoglobin (Mb) circulation and deposition after skeletal muscle ruptures and releases. Macrophages are the primary immune cells that fight foreign substances and play critical roles in regulating the body's natural immune response. However, what effect does myoglobin have on macrophages and the mechanisms involved in the CS-AKI remain unclear. This study aims to look into how myoglobin affects macrophages of the CS-AKI model. C57BL/6 mice were used to construct the CS-AKI model by digital crush platform. Biochemical analysis and renal histology confirmed the successful establishment of the CS-AKI mouse model. Ferrous myoglobin was used to treat Raw264.7 macrophages to mimic the CS-AKI cell model in vitro. The macrophage polarization toward M1 type and activation of RIG-I as myoglobin sensor were verified by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR), Western blotting (WB), and immunofluorescence (IF). Macrophage pyroptosis was observed under light microscopy. The interaction between RIG-I and caspase1 was subsequently explored by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and IF. Small interfering RNA (siRIG-I) and pyroptosis inhibitor dimethyl fumarate (DMF) were used to verify the role of macrophage polarization and pyroptosis in CS-AKI. In the kidney tissue of CS-AKI mice, macrophage infiltration and M1 type were found. We also detected that in the cell model of CS-AKI in vitro, ferrous myoglobin treatment promoted macrophages polarization to M1. Meanwhile, we observed pyroptosis, and myoglobin activated the RIG-I/Caspase1/GSDMD signaling pathway. In addition, pyroptosis inhibitor DMF not only alleviated kidney injury of CS-AKI mice but also inhibited macrophage polarization to M1 phenotype and pyroptosis via the RIG-I/Caspase1/GSDMD signaling pathway. Our research found that myoglobin promotes macrophage polarization to M1 type and pyroptosis via the RIG-I/Caspase1/GSDMD signaling pathway in CS-AKI.
