Exosomal circ_DLGAP4 promotes diabetic kidney disease progression by sponging miR-143 and targeting ERBB3/NF-?B/MMP-2 axis.

ABSTRACT: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is closely associated with the high risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Exosomal circRNAs can exert significant roles in the pathology of various diseases. Nevertheless, the role of exosomal circRNAs in DKD progression remains barely known. Circular RNA DLGAP4 has been reported to be in involved in acute ischemic stroke. In our study, we found exosomal circ_DLGAP4 was increased in the exosomes isolated from HG-treated mesangial cells (MCs), DKD patients, and DKD rat models compared with the corresponding normal subjects. Then, we observed that exo-circ_DLGAP4 significantly promoted proliferation and fibrosis of MCs cells. Moreover, to study the underlying mechanism of circ_DLGAP4 in regulating DKD, bioinformatics method was consulted and miR-143 was predicted as its target. The direct correlation between miR-143 and circ_DLGAP4 was validated in MCs. MCs proliferation and fibrosis were increased by circ_DLGAP4, which could be decreased by mimic-miR-143. Next, elevated expression of Erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 3 (ERBB3) is involved in various diseases. However, the function of ERBB3 in DKD development remains poorly known. Next, ERBB3 was predicted as the downstream target for miR-143. It was displayed that circ_DLGAP4 promoted proliferation and fibrosis of MCs by sponging miR-143 and regulating ERBB3/NF-?B/MMP-2 axis. Meanwhile, the loss of exo-circ_DLGAP4 induced miR-143 and repressed ERBB3/NF-?B/MMP-2 expression in MCs. Subsequently, in vivo assays were performed and it was proved that overexpression of circ_DLGAP4 markedly promoted DKD progression in vivo via modulating miR-143/ERBB3/NF-?B/MMP-2. In conclusion, we indicated that exosomal circ_DLGAP4 could prove a novel insight for DKD development.

Project description:Muscles of sarcopenic people show hypotrophic myofibers and infiltration with adipose and, at later stages, fibrotic tissue. The origin of infiltrating adipocytes resides in fibro-adipogenic precursors and nonmyogenic mesenchymal progenitor cells, and in satellite cells, the adult stem cells of skeletal muscles. Myoblasts and brown adipocytes share a common Myf5+ progenitor cell: the cell fate depends on levels of bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7), a TGF-β family member. S100B, a Ca2+-binding protein of the EF-hand type, is expressed at relatively high levels in myoblasts from sarcopenic humans and exerts anti-myogenic effects via NF-κB-dependent inhibition of MyoD, a myogenic transcription factor acting upstream of the essential myogenic factor, myogenin. Adipogenesis requires high levels of ROS, and myoblasts of sarcopenic subjects show elevated ROS levels. Here we show that: (1) ROS overproduction in myoblasts results in upregulation of S100B levels via NF-κB activation; and (2) ROS/NF-κB-induced accumulation of S100B causes myoblast transition into brown adipocytes. S100B activates an NF-κB/Ying Yang 1 axis that negatively regulates the promyogenic and anti-adipogenic miR-133 with resultant accumulation of the brown adipogenic transcription regulator, PRDM-16. S100B also upregulates BMP-7 via NF-κB/Ying Yang 1 with resultant BMP-7 autocrine activity. Interestingly, myoblasts from sarcopenic humans show features of brown adipocytes. We also show that S100B levels and NF-κB activity are elevated in brown adipocytes obtained by culturing myoblasts in adipocyte differentiation medium and that S100B knockdown or NF-κB inhibition in myoblast-derived brown adipocytes reconverts them into fusion-competent myoblasts. At last, interstitial cells and, unexpectedly, a subpopulation of myofibers in muscles of geriatric but not young mice co-express S100B and the brown adipocyte marker, uncoupling protein-1. These results suggest that S100B is an important intracellular molecular signal regulating Myf5+ progenitor cell differentiation into fusion-competent myoblasts or brown adipocytes depending on its levels.
