Transient receptor potential canonical 6 knockdown ameliorated diabetic kidney disease by inhibiting nuclear factor of activated T cells 2 expression in glomerular mesangial cells
CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that inhibition of TRPC6/NFAT2 signaling attenuates GMC dysfunction and the development of DKD and suggest that pharmacological targeting of TRPC6/NFAT2 in GMCs may provide beneficial effects for DKD.PMID:36285371 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2022.2134796

Angiotensin II type 2 receptor prevents extracellular matrix accumulation in human peritoneal mesothelial cell by ameliorating lipid disorder via LOX-1 suppression
Ren Fail. 2022 Dec;44(1):1687-1697. doi: 10.1080/0886022X.2022.2133729.ABSTRACTEvidence suggests that intracellular angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1) contributes to peritoneal fibrosis (PF) under high glucose (HG)-based dialysates. It is generally believed that AT2 antagonisticly affects AT1 function. The aim of this study was to explore whether AT2 activation is beneficial for attenuating human peritoneal mesothelial cell (HPMC) injury due to HG. We treated a HPMC line with HG to induce extracellular matrix (ECM) formation. AT2 was increased and blocked using CGP42112A and AT2 siRNA. Lipid deposition was detected, sign...

Cyclophilin A/CD147 signaling induces the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and renal fibrosis in chronic allograft dysfunction by regulating p38 MAPK signaling
CONCLUSIONS: Our study reported the positive relationship of CyPA-CD147 signaling with renal allograft dysfunction. The in vitro study suggested that CyPA-CD147 signaling induce the development of the EMT process by p38 MAPK signaling, thus contributing to renal allograft fibrosis and CAD.PMID:36203223 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2022.2126788

Vitamin D/vitamin D receptor/Atg16L1  axis maintains podocyte autophagy and survival in diabetic kidney disease
CONCLUSION: Autophagy protects podocytes from damage in DN and is modulated by VitD3/VDR signaling and downstream regulation of Atg16L1 expression.PMID:35469547 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2022.2063744

Endoplasmic reticulum stress mediates parathyroid hormone-induced apoptosis in vascular smooth muscle cells
Ren Fail. 2022 Dec;44(1):126-136. doi: 10.1080/0886022X.2022.2027248.ABSTRACTVascular calcification is one of the most common complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is closely associated with increased mortality and morbidity rates of CKD patients. It has been reported that increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) aggravates vascular calcification in CKD patients. However, the direct role of PTH in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is less elucidated. Here, we present evidence that PTH promotes apoptosis of VSMCs and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress participates in this process. Human aorta vascular smooth mus...

ATF4-dependent heme-oxygenase-1 attenuates diabetic nephropathy by inducing autophagy and inhibiting apoptosis in podocyte
CONCLUSIONS: ATF4 induces autophagy by enhancing the expression of HO-1, and inhibits podocyte apoptosis in DN. Treatment with the HO-1 agonist reduced proteinuria, apoptosis, and enhanced autophagy response, and thus improved renal function in DN mice.PMID:34157937 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2021.1936040
