Advanced glycation end products induce the apoptosis of and inflammation in mouse podocytes through CXCL9-mediated JAK2/STAT3 pathway activation.
In this study, we found that the serum and urine levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 9 (CXCL9) were significantly elevated in patients with DN compared with healthy controls. Based on an in vitro model of mouse podocyte injury, AGEs decreased the proliferation of podocytes and increased the expression of CXCL9 and C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3), and promoted the activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). The knockdown of CXCL9 by the transfection of mouse podoyctes with specific siRNA significantly increased the proliferation and decreased the apoptosis of the podoyctes. ...

Am J Physiol Renal Physiol. 2017 Sep 20;:ajprenal.00434.2017 Authors: Sharma I, Tupe RS, Wallner AK, Kanwar YS Abstract Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) play a role in pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Myo-inositol Oxygenase (MIOX) has been implicated in tubulo-interstitial injury in the context of DN. We investigated the effect of AGEs on MIOX expression and delineated mechanisms that lead to tubulo-interstitial injury. Status of MIOX, RAGE and relevant ...

Small Interfering RNA Inhibition of Cannabanoid-1 Receptor (CB1R) for Treating Type 2 Diabetes
The invention pertains to the use of glucan encapsulated non-immunostimulatory small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to treat type-2 diabetes. Endocannabinoids (EC) are lipid signaling molecules that act on the same cannabinoid receptors that recognize and mediate the effects of endo- and phytocannabanoids. EC receptor CB1R activation is implicated in the development of obesity and its metabolic consequences, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Beta-cell loss has been demonstrated in a Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rat model of type-2 diabetes through CB1R-mediated activation of a macrophage-mediated inflammatory res...

14 The mechanism of pkcB-p66shc-nadph oxidase pathway in high glucose induced-oxidative stress in renal tubular epithelial cells
Conclusion The study clarified a novel mechanism of oxidative stress damaging HK-2 cells via the modulation of the PKCβ-P66Shc-NADPH oxidase pathway. Understanding the molecular pathway of oxidative stress could translate into the development of therapeutic strategies for diabetic nephropathy.

HSPB8 Promotes the Fusion of Autophagosome and Lysosome during Autophagy in Diabetic Neurons.
Authors: Li XC, Hu QK, Chen L, Liu SY, Su S, Tao H, Zhang LN, Sun T, He LJ Abstract Although autophagy has been proposed to play an emerging role in diabetic neuropathy, autophagy and its possible role remains unclear. Moreover, only few studies about diabetes have explored the autophagy mediated by heat shock protein beta-8 (HSPB8) and Bcl-2 associated athanogene 3 (BAG3). In the present study, we examined the autophagy induced by high glucose levels in an in vivo rat model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin (STZ) and an in vitro model of retinal ganglion cell-5 (RGC5) cells under high glucose conditions. In th...

Downregulation of cathepsin G reduces the activation of CD4+ T cells in murine autoimmune diabetes.
Authors: Zou F, Lai X, Li J, Lei S, Hu L Abstract Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disease due to progressive injury of islet cells mediated by T lymphocytes (T cells). Our previous studies have shown that only cathepsin G (CatG), not other proteases, is involved in the antigen presentation of proinsulin, and if the presentation is inhibited, the activation of CD4+ T cells induced by proinsulin is alleviated in T1DM patients, and CatG-specific inhibitor reduces the activation of CD4+ cells induced by proinsulin in T1DM patients. Therefore, we hypothesize that CatG may play an important role in the a...

FGFR1 is essential for N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline regulation of mitochondrial dynamics by upregulating microRNA let-7b-5p.
Abstract Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 1 plays a key role in endothelial homeostasis by inducing microRNA (miR) let-7. Our previous paper showed that anti-fibrotic effects of N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (AcSDKP) were associated with restoring diabetes-suppressed expression of FGFR1 and miR let-7, the key contributor of mitochondrial biogenesis, which is regulated by mitochondrial membrane GTPase proteins (MFN2 and OPA1). Here, we found that the FGFR1 signaling pathway was critical for AcSDKP in maintaining endothelial mitochondrial biogenesis through induction of miR let-7b-5p. In endothelial ...

Irisin Alleviates Advanced Glycation End Products-Induced Inflammation and Endothelial Dysfunction via Inhibiting ROS-NLRP3 Inflammasome Signaling
AbstractThe activation of NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome have been implicated in the initiation or progression of atherosclerosis. Recent research showed that irisin, a newly discovered adipomiokine, alleviates endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes partiallyvia reducing oxidative/nitrative stresses, suggesting that irisin may be a promising candidate for the treatment of vascular complications of diabetes. However, the association between irisin and NLRP3 inflammasome in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis remains unclear. In the present study, we cultured human umbilical vein endothelial ce...
