CD5L-induced activation of autophagy is associated with hepatoprotection in ischemic reperfusion injury via the CD36/ATG7 axis.

ABSTRACT: Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a side effect of major liver surgery that is difficult to prevent. I/R injury induces metabolic strain on hepatocytes and limits the tolerable ischemia during liver resection, as well as preservation times during transplantation. Additionally, I/R injury induces apoptosis in hepatocytes. CD5-like (CD5L), an inducer of autophagy, is a soluble scavenger cysteine-rich protein that modulates hepatocyte apoptosis. The aim of the present study was to determine if pharmacologic CD5L was protective against hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury. Hepatocytes were subjected to I/R culture conditions, and apoptosis and caspase family activity were measured after I/R to model hepatic injury. Treatment with recombinant CD5L significantly suppressed apoptosis and caspase activity through modulating cellular autophagy to maintain activation of the cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36)-dependent autophagy-related 7 (ATG7) signaling pathway. The regulation loop between CD5L and the autophagy signaling pathway was identified to be associated with the inhibition of oxidative stress. Treatment with CD5L significantly inhibited cellular oxidative stress, which was confirmed by silencing the CD36 receptor or the autophagy related protein ATG7 using small interfering RNA, which reversed the antiapoptotic and antioxidative effects of CD5L on hepatocytes under I/R conditions. The results of the present study suggested that CD5L-mediated attenuation of hepatic I/R injury occurs through the CD36-dependent ATG7 pathway, accompanied by the inhibition of oxidative stress, which is associated with enhanced autophagy. In conclusion, the present study identifies CD5L as a novel therapeutic agent for hepatic I/R injury.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with an abrupt loss of kidney function that results in significant morbidity and mortality. Considerable effort has focused around the identification of diagnostic biomarkers and the analysis of molecular events. Most studies have adopted organ-wide approaches that do not fully capture the interplay among different cell types in the pathophysiology of AKI. To extend our understanding of molecular and cellular events in AKI, we developed a mouse line that enables the identification of translational profiles in specific cell types by CRE recombinase-dependent activation of an eGFP-tagged L10a ribosomal protein subunit, and consequently, translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) of mRNA populations. By utilizing cell-type specific CRE-driver lines, in this study we identify distinct cellular responses in an ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) model of AKI. Cell-specific translational expression profiles were uncovered 24 hours after IRI from four populations enriched for distinct anatomical and cellular subgroups: nephron, interstitial cell populations, vascular endothelium, and macrophages/monocytes by Affymetrix microarray. A construct containing the CAGGS promoter driving eGFP-L10a, with a loxP-site flanked triple SV40 polyA cassette between promoter and eGFP-L10a cassette was targeted into the ubiquitously active Rosa26 locus. The upstream polyA cassette is designed to block activity of the downstream eGFP-L10a cassette. CRE-dependent removal of this transcriptional block activates eGFP::L10a production within the CRE-producing cell, and all of its descendants. Mice carrying the conditional eGFP-L10a allele, referred to as L10a, were maintained in a homozygous state. L10a mice were crossed to four CRE strains to activate eGFP::L10a expression in four predominantly non-overlapping cellular compartments in the kidney. A Six2-Tet-GFP::CRE allele is active exclusively within nephron progenitors; consequently, historical labeling results in eGFP::L10a expression throughout the main body of the nephron. A Foxd1-GFP::CRE allele is active in the progenitors of many of the interstitial cell lineages including those generating mesangial and non-glomerular pericytes. In addition, Foxd1 is normally expressed in podocytes. Cdh5-CRE is reported to be active throughout the vascular endothelium, and finally, Lyz2-CRE specifically labels cells of the myeloid lineage, notably macrophages, monocytes and dendritic cells. Mice carrying any CRE allele and the L10a allele are designated generically CRE-L10a. six2-L10a, foxd1-L10a, cdh5-L10a and lyz2-L10a denote specifically mice that are compound heterozygotes for the indicated CRE driver and L10a. CRE-L10a, L10a heterozygous littermates without CRE allele, C57BL/6 wild type mice were subjected to renal bilateral warm ischemia 28 minutes followed by 24-hour reperfusion when the kidney TRAP RNA and total RNA were isolated and subjected to Affymetrix microarray. Biological triplicates for each CRE-L10a line underwent no Surgery; sham Surgery and IRI treatment.
