Inhibition of p300 by Garcinol Protects against Cisplatin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury through Suppression of Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Tubular Cell Death in Mice.

ABSTRACT: Emerging evidence suggests that epigenetic mechanisms such as histone modification are crucially involved in the pathophysiology of acute kidney injury (AKI). The histone acetyltransferase p300 regulates several biological processes through the acetylation of histones or transcription factors. However, the role of p300 in cisplatin-induced AKI remains poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated the effects of garcinol, a potent p300 inhibitor, on cisplatin-induced AKI and explored the mechanisms. Administration of garcinol significantly reversed the upregulation of p300 and increased acetylation of histone H3, along with amelioration of renal dysfunction and histopathological injury in the kidneys of cisplatin-injected mice. Garcinol also attenuated oxidative stress and reduced expression of pro-oxidant enzymes. In addition, garcinol reduced the elevated production of cytokines and chemokines and suppressed immune cell accumulation together with downregulation of vascular adhesion molecules. These beneficial effects of garcinol were associated with a reduction in acetylation of the p65 subunit of nuclear factor kappa-B. Further, garcinol significantly inhibited apoptosis and caspase-3 activation, with a decrease in p53 acetylation in cisplatin-injected mice. Taken together, we demonstrated that the inhibition of p300 by garcinol ameliorated cisplatin-induced renal injury, presumably through epigenetic mechanisms. These results suggest that garcinol might be a potential preventive agent for cisplatin-induced AKI.

Project description:Cisplatin has been widely studied and found to be a highly effective anti-tumor drug. It has several side effects, including acute kidney injury (AKI). Cisplatin-induced AKI can be primarily attributed to oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. The CTRP3 adipokine is a new adipokine that exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic properties. Despite this, the role of CTRP3 in AKI remain unclear. In cisplatin-induced AKI models, our findings demonstrated that CTRP3 expression was decreased in human proximal tubule epithelial cells (HK-2). In the in vitro experiments, HK-2 cells were first transfected with an overexpression plasmid of CTRP3 (pcDNA-CTRP3) or a small interfering RNA for CTRP3 (si-CTRP3) and induced by cisplatin; and cell oxidative stress, inflammation, proliferation, and apoptosis were found to be present. Overexpressing CTRP3 inhibited oxidative stress through decreasing malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and increasing the activity of SOD and CAT. The mRNA levels of SOD1 and SOD2 were increased in response to CTRP3 overexpression. Additionally, CTRP3 decreased TNF-α and MCP-1 levels. Moreover, CTRP3 overexpression increased cisplatin-induced cell activity and decreased cell apoptosis, as indicated by the elevated numbers of EdU positive cells and decreased numbers of apoptotic cells. Consistent with these results, the overexpression of CTRP3 effectively elevated the mRNA levels of Bcl-2 and reduced the mRNA levels of Bax. In contrast, inhibition of CTRP3 expression by si-CTRP3 reversed the cisplatin-induced indices. Mechanistically, we found that the overexpression of CTRP3 can increase expression of Nrf2 and inhibit the activation of MAPK phosphorylation (ERK, JNK, and p38). Furthermore, inhibition of ERK, JNK and p38 activity eliminated aggravation of cisplatin-induced inflammation and apoptosis caused by CTRP3 knockdown. Additionally, the cisplatin-induced oxidative stress and activation of MAPK phosphorylation (ERK, JNK, and p38) in HK-2 cells were reversed by Nrf2 suppression by siRNA. Collectively, these results indicated that CTRP3 may identify as a novel target for AKI treatment and protect against cisplatin-induced AKI through the Nrf2/MAPK pathway.
