Overexpression of miR-19a and miR-20a in iPS-MSCs preserves renal function of chronic kidney disease with acute ischaemia-reperfusion injury in rat.

ABSTRACT: This study tested the hypothesis that therapy with double overexpression of miR-19a-3p and miR-20a-5p (miR^DOE ) to human inducible pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (iPS-MSCs) was superior to iPS-MSCs alone for preserving renal function in rat with pre-existing chronic kidney disease (CKD), followed by ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. In vitro study demonstrated that the protein expressions of oxidative stress (NOX-1/NOX-2/NOX4/oxidized protein/p22phox), inflammatory downstream signalling (TLR2&4/MyD88/TRAF6/IKK-ß/p-NFκB/IL-1ß/IL-6/MMP-9) and cell apoptosis/death signalling (cleaved caspase-3/mitochondrial Bax/p-ERKs/p-JNK/p-p38) at time-points of 24-hour/48-hour cell cultures were significantly increased in p-Cresol-treated NRK-52E cells than in the control that was significantly reversed by miR-19a-3p-transfected iPS-MSC (all P < .001). Animals were categorized into group 1 (sham-operated control), group 2 (CKD-IR), group 3 (CKD-IR + oligo-miR^DOE of iPS-MSCs/6.0 ×10⁵ /intra-renal artery transfusion/3 hours after IR procedure), group 4 (CKD-IR + iPS-MSCs) and group 5 (CKD-IR + miR^DOE of iPS-MSCs/6.0 ×10^5/ intra-renal artery transfusion/3 hour after IR procedure). By day 35, the creatinine/BUN levels were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2 and significantly lower in group 5 than in groups 3 and 4 (all P < .0001) but they showed no difference between the latter two groups. The protein expressions of oxidative stress, inflammatory downstream signalling and cell apoptosis/death signalling exhibited an identical pattern of creatinine level among the five groups (all P < .00001). Also, the microscopic findings demonstrated that the kidney injury score/fibrotic area/number of inflammatory cells (CD14+/CD68+) exhibited an identical pattern of creatine level (all P < .0001). The miR^DOE of iPS-MSCs was superior to iPS-MSCs for preserving the residual kidney function and architecture in CKD-IR rat.

Project description:BackgroundThis study tested the hypothesis that double overexpression of miR-19a and miR-20a (dOex-mIRs) in human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS)-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) effectively preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (i.e., induced by doxorubicin) rat.Methods and resultsIn vitro study was categorized into groups G1 (iPS-MSC), G2 (iPS-MSCdOex-mIRs), G3 (iPS-MSC + H2O2/100uM), and G4 (iPS-MSCdOex-mIRs + H2O2/100uM). The in vitro results showed the cell viability was significantly lower in G3 than in G1 and G2, and that was reversed in G4 but it showed no difference between G1/G2 at time points of 6 h/24 h/48 h, whereas the flow cytometry of intra-cellular/mitochondrial oxidative stress (DCFA/mitoSOX) and protein expressions of mitochondrial-damaged (cytosolic-cytochrome-C/DRP1/Cyclophilin-D), oxidative-stress (NOX-1/NOX2), apoptotic (cleaved-caspase-3/PARP), fibrotic (p-Smad3/TGF-ß), and autophagic (ratio of LC3B-II/LC3BI) biomarkers exhibited an opposite pattern of cell-proliferation rate (all p< 0.001). Adult-male SD rats (n=32) were equally divided into groups 1 (sham-operated control), 2 (DCM), 3 (DCM + iPS-MSCs/1.2 × 106 cells/administered by post-28 day's DCM induction), and 4 (DCM + iPS-MSCdOex-mIRs/1.2 × 106 cells/administered by post-28 day's DCM induction) and euthanized by day 60 after DCM induction. LV myocardium protein expressions of oxidative-stress signaling (p22-phox/NOX-1/NOX-2/ASK1/p-MMK4,7/p-JNK1,2/p-cJUN), upstream (TLR-4/MAL/MyD88/TRIF/TRAM/ TFRA6/IKKα/ß/NF-κB) and downstream (TNF-α/IL-1ß/MMP-9) inflammatory signalings, apoptotic (cleaved-PARP/mitochondrial-Bax), fibrotic (Smad3/TGF-ß), mitochondrial-damaged (cytosolic-cytochrome-C/DRP1/cyclophilin-D), and autophagic (beclin1/Atg5) biomarkers were highest in group 2, lowest in group 1 and significantly lower in group 4 than in group 3, whereas the LVEF exhibited an opposite pattern of oxidative stress (all p< 0.0001).ConclusioniPS-MSCdOex-mIRs therapy was superior to iPS-MSC therapy for preserving LV function in DCM rat.
