Project description:Many environmentally-relevant chemicals and drugs activate the nuclear receptor pregnane X receptor (PXR). Activation of PXR can lead to increases in liver weight in part through hepatocyte replication similar to a large number of compounds that activate other nuclear receptors such as the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha and the constitutive activated receptor (CAR). PXR controls the expression of a large battery of genes involved in xenobiotic metabolism. Identification of genes that are accurate predictors of PXR activation would be useful in high-throughput screens to assess potential toxicity and drug-drug interactions. Here, we identified PXR-dependent genes in the mouse liver after exposure to pregnenolone 16alpha-carbinonitrile (PCN), a chemical that is often used as a model PXR agonist.

Project description:The nuclear receptor PXR (Pregnane X rreceptor) mediates the effects of pregnenolone-16alpha-carbonitrile (PCN) on gene transcription. The relative role of PXR and also CAR to the induction response by PCN was studied on cDNA arrays containing 320 (Steroltalk V2) genes (genes involved in cyrcadian rhythm, drug metabolism, cholesterol biosynthesis, sterol synthesis/transport, heme synthesis). Samples from livers of wild type and CAR-/-, PXR-/- or CAR/PXR-/- knockout mice were tested after treatment with PCN for gene expression within the European Framework V program âSteroltalkâ (www.steroltalk.net). Results from these experiments show the complex role of PXR receptor in the expression of genes involved in cyrcadian rhythm, drug metabolism and cholesterol biosynthesis. Animals were injected i.p. 40mg/kg PCN or vehicle (5% DMSO in corn oil). After 12h they were sacrificed and total RNA was isolated from the livers. Pools of untreated samples were mixed in each genetic variant group (wild type and CAR-/-, PXR-/- or CAR/PXR-/-) with the PCN treated ones and hybridized to Steroltalk V2 arrays.

Project description:Background: Cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (CAKI) has been recognized as one of the most serious side effects of cisplatin. Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a ligand-dependent nuclear receptor and serves as a master regulator of xenobiotic detoxification. Increasing evidence also suggests PXR has many nonxenobiotic functions including the regulation of cell proliferation, inflammatory response and glucose and lipid metabolism. Methods: In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of PXR in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. CAKI model was performed in wild-type or PXR knockout mice. Pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile (PCN), a mouse PXR specific agonist, was used for PXR activation. The renal function, biochemical, histopathological and molecular alterations were examined in mouse blood, urine or renal tissues. Whole transcriptome analysis was performed by RNA sequencing. Dual-luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays were applied to determine the regulation of PXR on its target genes. Results: We found that PXR activation significantly attenuated CAKI as reflected by improved renal function, reduced renal tubular apoptosis, ameliorated oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stress, and suppressed inflammatory factor expression. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that the renoprotective effect of PXR was associated with multiple crucial signaling pathways. In particular, PXR protected against cisplatin-induced AKI by the activation of PI3K/AKT pathway and the induction of multidrug and toxin extrusion 1 (MATE1), an important transporter mediating cellular excretion of cisplatin, in the kidney. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that PXR activation can preserve renal function in cisplatin-induced AKI and suggest a possibility of PXR as a novel therapeutic target for cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.

Project description:The mice were treated i.p. with pregnenolone-16-α-carbonitrile (PCN, 50mg/kg dissolved in DMSO-corn oil 1:3) or vehicle (DMSO-corn oil 1:3) once daily for four days. The mice were fasted for four hours and then administered glucose (2g/kg) by oral gavage or further kept on fasting. The mice were sacrificed 1 hour after glucose administration.

Here, we identified PXR-dependent genes in the mouse liver after exposure to pregnenolone 16alpha-carbinonitrile (PCN), a chemical that is often used as a model PXR agonist. The animal studies were carried out at the University of Kansas Medical Center (Kansas City, KS) under federal guidelines for the use and care of laboratory animals and was approved by the KUMC Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Eight-week-old adult C57BL/6 mice were purchased from Jackson Laboratories (Bar Harbor, ME). Generation of the PXR-null mice was previously described (Staudinger et al., (2001), Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 98:3369M-bM-^@M-^S3374). PXR-null breeder pairs were engineered and backcrossed into the C57BL/6 background. Adult male wild-type mice and PXR-null mice were maintained on standard laboratory chow and were allowed food and water ad libitum. All mice were treated once a day i.p. with either vehicle (corn oil) or PCN at 400 mg/kg/day for 4 days. Livers were removed 24-hrs after the last dose. Portions of the livers were rapidly snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -70M-BM-0C until analysis. Liver gene expression analysis was performed according to the Affymetrix recommended protocol using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 GeneChipsM-BM-.. Total RNA (5 M-NM-<g per sample) was labelled using the AffymetrixM-BM-. One-Cycle cDNA Synthesis protocol and hybridized to arrays as described by the manufacturer (AffymetrixM-BM-., Santa Clara, CA). Microarray hybridizations were conducted overnight at 45M-BM-0C while rotating in an Affymetrix hybridization oven. After 16 hours of hybridization, the cocktail was removed and the arrays were washed and stained in an Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. fluidics station 450 according to the Affymetrix-recommended protocol. Arrays were scanned on an Affymetrix GeneChipM-BM-. scanner. Four mice per group were examined.
