Salidroside is a major phenylethanoid glycoside in Rhodiola rosea L., a traditional Chinese medicine, with multiple biological activities. It has been shown that salidroside possesses protective effects for alleviating diabetic renal dysfunction, contrast‐induced‐nephropathy and other kidney diseases. However, the involved molecular mechanism was still not understood well. Herein, we examined the protective effects of salidroside in mice with Adriamycin (ADR)‐induced nephropathy and the underlying molecular mechanism. The results showed that salidroside treatment ameliorates proteinuria; improves expressions of nephrin and podocin; and reduces kidney fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis induced by ADR. Mechanistically, ADR induces a robust accumulation of β‐catenin in the nucleus and stimulates its downstream target gene expression. The application of salidroside largely abolishes the nuclear translocation of β‐catenin and thus inhibits its activity. Furthermore, the activation of β‐catenin almost completely counteracts the protective roles of salidroside in ADR‐injured podocytes. Taken together, our data indicate that salidroside ameliorates proteinuria, renal fibrosis and podocyte injury in ADR nephropathy, which may rely on inhibition of β‐catenin signalling pathway. 相似文献

Diabetic nephropathy is a major complication of diabetes and a frequent cause of end‐stage renal disease and recent studies suggest that podocyte damage may play a role in the pathogenesis of this. At early onset of diabetic nephropathy there is podocyte drop‐out, which is thought to provoke glomerular albuminuria and subsequent glomerular injury; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms of this remain poorly understood. Here we report that we tested the hypothesis that early diabetic podocyte injury is caused, at least in part, by up‐regulation of transient receptor potential cation channel 6 (TRPC6), which is regulated by the canonical Wnt signalling pathway, in mouse podocytes.Materials and methods
Mechanism of injury initiation in mouse podocytes, by high concentration of D‐glucose (HG, 30 mM), was investigated by MTT, flow cytometry, real‐time quantitative PCR, and western blot analysis.Results
HG induced apoptosis and reduced viability of differentiated podocytes. It caused time‐dependent up‐regulation of TRPC6 and activation of the canonical Wnt signalling pathway, in mouse podocytes. In these cells, blockade of the Wnt signalling pathway by dickkopf related protein 1 (Dkk1) resulted in effective reduction of TRPC6 up‐regulation and amelioration of podocyte apoptosis. Furthermore, reduction of cell viability induced by HG was attenuated by treatment with Dkk1.Conclusion
These findings indicate that the Wnt/β‐catenin signalling pathway may potentially be active in pathogenesis of TRPC6‐mediated diabetic podocyte injury.3.

Podocyte injury and depletion are essential events involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). As a terminally differentiated cell, podocyte is restricted in ‘post‐mitosis’ state and unable to regenerate. Re‐entering mitotic phase will cause podocyte disastrous death which is defined as mitotic catastrophe (MC). Murine double minute 2 (MDM2), a cell cycle regulator, is widely expressed in renal resident cells including podocytes. Here, we explore whether MDM2 is involved in podocyte MC during hyperglycaemia. We found aberrant mitotic podocytes with multi‐nucleation in DN patients. In vitro, cultured podocytes treated by high glucose (HG) also showed an up‐regulation of mitotic markers and abnormal mitotic status, accompanied by elevated expression of MDM2. HG exposure forced podocytes to enter into S phase and bypass G2/M checkpoint with enhanced expression of Ki67, cyclin B1, Aurora B and p‐H3. Genetic deletion of MDM2 partly reversed HG‐induced mitotic phase re‐entering of podocytes. Moreover, HG‐induced podocyte injury was alleviated by MDM2 knocking down but not by nutlin‐3a, an inhibitor of MDM2‐p53 interaction. Interestingly, knocking down MDM2 or MDM2 overexpression showed inhibition or activation of Notch1 signalling, respectively. In addition, genetic silencing of Notch1 prevented HG‐mediated podocyte MC. In conclusion, high glucose up‐regulates MDM2 expression and leads to podocyte MC. Notch1 signalling is an essential downstream pathway of MDM2 in mediating HG‐induced MC in podocytes. 相似文献

Canonical BMP and Wnt signaling pathways play critical roles in regulation of osteoblast function and bone formation. Recent studies demonstrate that BMP‐2 acts synergistically with β‐catenin to promote osteoblast differentiation. To determine the molecular mechanisms of the signaling cross‐talk between canonical BMP and Wnt signaling pathways, we have used primary osteoblasts and osteoblast precursor cell lines 2T3 and MC3T3‐E1 cells to investigate the effect of BMP‐2 on β‐catenin signaling. We found that BMP‐2 stimulates Lrp5 expression and inhibits the expression of β‐TrCP, the F‐box E3 ligase responsible for β‐catenin degradation and subsequently increases β‐catenin protein levels in osteoblasts. In vitro deletion of the β‐catenin gene inhibits osteoblast proliferation and alters osteoblast differentiation and reduces the responsiveness of osteoblasts to the BMP‐2 treatment. These findings suggest that BMP‐2 may regulate osteoblast function in part through modulation of the β‐catenin signaling. J. Cell. Biochem. 108: 896–905, 2009. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Despite extensive efforts toward elucidation of the molecular pathway controlling cytotrophoblast (CTB) invasion to the uterine decidua, it remains poorly defined. There are striking similarities between tumor cell invasion and cytotrophoblast implantation to the deciduas whereby the role of Protease Activated Receptors (PARs) and wnt signaling is well recognized. We examine here consequences of modulation of PAR1 and PAR2 expression and function on CTB invasion and β‐catenin stabilization. Toward this end, we utilized a model system of extravillous trophoblast (EVT) organ culture and various placenta cell lines (e.g., JAR and HTR‐8/Svneo). Activation of PAR1 induces EVT invasion while hPar1‐SiRNA and PAR1 antagonist SCH79797—effectively inhibited it. In parallel, the Wnt inhibitor Dickkopf‐1 (Dkk1) similarly inhibited it. Nuclear localization of β‐catenin is seen only after PAR1 activation, and is markedly reduced following the application of hPar1‐SiRNA construct and PAR1 antagonist in CTBs. In contrast, PAR2 elicited a low cytoplasmic β‐catenin level as also proliferation and invasion. In the non‐activated CTBs in‐comparison, β‐catenin appeared limited to the membrane pools. Concomitantly, a temporal regulated pattern of Wnt‐4, 5a, 7b, 10a, 10b expression is seen along PAR1 appearance. Enforced expression of Wnt antagonists, Secreted Frizzled Related Proteins; SFRP2 & 5; into HTR‐8/Svneo, resulted with a markedly reduced nuclear β‐catenin levels, similar to the effect obtained by hPar1‐SiRNA treatment. Identification of PAR1 downstream target/s may nonetheless contribute to the formation of a future platform system for eliciting a firm placenta‐uterus interactions and to the definition of late pregnancy outcomes.

Glioma is the most common brain tumor malignancy with high mortality and poor prognosis. Emerging evidence suggests that cancer stem cells are the key culprit in the development of cancer. MicroRNAs have been reported to be dysregulated in many cancers, while the mechanism underlying miR‐150‐5p in glioma progression and proportion of stem cells is unclear. The expression levels of miR‐150‐5p and catenin beta 1 (CTNNB1, which encodes β‐catenin) were measured by quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR) and western blot. The expression levels of downstream genes of the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway and stem cell markers were detected by qRT‐PCR. Tumorigenesis was investigated by cell viability, colony formation, and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. The interaction between miR‐150‐5p and β‐catenin was explored via bioinformatics analysis and luciferase activity assay. We found that miR‐150‐5p was downregulated in glioma and its overexpression inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, and tumor growth. Moreover, miR‐150‐5p directly suppressed CTNNB1 and negatively regulated the abundances of downstream genes of the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway and stem cell markers. Furthermore, miR‐150‐5p expression was decreased and β‐catenin level was enhanced in CD133+ glioma stem cells. Knockdown of miR‐150‐5p contributed to CD133? cells with stem cell‐like phenotype, whereas overexpression of miR‐150‐5p suppressed CD133+ glioma stem cell‐like characteristics. In conclusion, miR‐150‐5p inhibited the progression of glioma by controlling stem cell‐like characteristics via regulating the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway, providing a novel target for glioma treatment. 相似文献

HIF‐1α regulates EMT via the Snail and β‐catenin pathways in paraquat poisoning‐induced early pulmonary fibrosis 下载免费PDF全文

Paraquat (PQ) poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis is one of the primary causes of death in patients with PQ poisoning. Hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α) and epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) are involved in the progression of pulmonary fibrosis. Snail and β‐catenin are two other factors involved in promoting EMT. However, the relationship among HIF‐1α, Snail and β‐catenin in PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis is not clear. Our research aimed to determine whether the regulation of HIF‐1α in EMT occurs via the Snail and β‐catenin pathways in PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. Sixty‐six Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly and evenly divided into a control group and a PQ group. The PQ group was treated with an intragastric infusion of a 20% PQ solution (50 mg/kg) for 2, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hrs. A549 and RLE‐6TN cell lines were transfected with HIF‐1α siRNA for 48 hrs before being exposed to PQ. Western blotting, real‐time quantitative PCR, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry and other assays were used in our research. In vivo, the protein levels of HIF‐1α and α‐SMA were increased at 2 hrs and the level of ZO‐1 (Zonula Occluden‐1) was reduced at 12 hrs. In vitro, the transient transfection of HIF‐1α siRNA resulted in a decrease in the degree of EMT. The expression levels of Snail and β‐catenin were significantly reduced when HIF‐α was silenced. These data demonstrate that EMT may be involved in PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis and regulated by HIF‐1α via the Snail and β‐catenin pathways. Hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α may be a therapeutic target for the treatment of PQ poisoning‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. 相似文献

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease characterized by diminished apoptosis, sustained ectopic survival of dysfunctional endometrial cells. Hypoxia has been implicated as a crucial microenvironmental factor that contributes to endometriosis. It has been reported that long non‐coding RNA MALAT1 (lncRNA‐MALAT1) highly expressed in endometriosis and up‐regulated by hypoxia. Hypoxia may also induce autophagy, which might act as cell protective mechanism. However, the relationship between lncRNA‐MALAT1 and autophagy under hypoxia conditions in endometriosis remains unknown. In the present study, we found that both lncRNA‐MALAT1 and autophagy level were up‐regulated in ectopic endometrium from patients with endometriosis, and its expression level correlates positively with that of hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α). In cultured human endometrial stromal cells, both lncRNA‐MALAT1 and autophagy were induced by hypoxia in a time‐dependent manner and lncRNA‐MALAT1 up‐regulation was dependent on HIF‐1α signalling. Our analyses also show that knockdown of lncRNA‐MALAT1 suppressed hypoxia induced autophagy. Furthermore, inhibiting autophagy with specific inhibitor 3‐Methyladenine (3‐MA) and Beclin1 siRNA enhanced apoptosis of human endometrial stromal cells under hypoxia condition. Collectively, our findings identify that lncRNA‐MALAT1 mediates hypoxia‐induced pro‐survival autophagy of endometrial stromal cells in endometriosis. 相似文献

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) exerts an anabolic action on bone but the mechanisms are incompletely understood. We showed previously that PTH interacts with the canonical Wnt‐β‐catenin signaling pathway via the transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β signaling molecule, Smad3, to modulate osteoblast differentiation and apoptosis. Here, we examined which actions of Smad3 are TGF‐β‐independent in stimulating the osteoblast phenotype and PTH‐induced Wnt‐β‐catenin signaling. For this, the TGF‐β receptor type 1 [activin receptor‐like kinase (ALK5)] inhibitor (SB431542), and a Smad3 mutant in which the site normally phosphorylated by ALK5 is mutated from SSVS to AAVA, was used. PTH induced total β‐catenin and reduced phosphorylated β‐catenin levels at 1, 6, and 24 h in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3‐E1 cells. Transient transfection of Smad3AAVA inhibited the PTH induction of total β‐catenin and reduction of phosphorylated β‐catenin levels at 6 and 24 h, but not at 1 h, indicating that the early effects occur independently of TGF‐β receptor signaling. On the other hand, MC3T3‐E1 cell clones in which Smad3AAVA was stably expressed demonstrated elevated β‐catenin levels, although alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and mineralization were unaltered. In contrast, MC3T3‐E1 cell clones in which wild‐type Smad3 was stably expressed exhibited increased ALP activity and mineralization that were decreased by the ALK5 inhibitor, SB431542, although the β‐catenin levels induced in these cells were not modulated. In conclusion, the present study indicates that PTH induces osteoblast β‐catenin levels via Smad3 independently of, and dependently on, TGF‐β in the early and later induction phases, respectively. J.

The Wnt/β‐catenin pathway has been implicated in leukemogenesis. We found β‐catenin abnormally accumulated in both human acute T cell leukemia Jurkat cells and human erythroleukemia HEL cells. β‐Catenin can be significantly down‐regulated by the Janus kinase 2 specific inhibitor AG490 in these two cells. AG490 also reduces the luciferase activity of a reporter plasmid driven by LEF/β‐catenin promoter. Similar results were observed in HEL cells infected with lentivirus containing shRNA against JAK2 gene. After treatment with 50 µM AG490 or shRNA, the mRNA expression levels of β‐catenin, APC, Axin, β‐Trcp, GSK3α, and GSK3β were up‐regulated within 12–16 h. However, only the protein levels of GSK3β and β‐Trcp were found to have increased relative to untreated cells. Knockdown experiments revealed that the AG490‐induced inhibition of β‐catenin can be attenuated by shRNA targeting β‐TrCP. Taken together; these results suggest that β‐Trcp plays a key role in the cross‐talk between JAK/STAT and Wnt/β‐catenin signaling in leukemia cells. J. Cell.

Podocytes are highly specialized and terminally differentiated glomerular cells that play a vital role in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), who is an atypical but essential member of the Cdk family of proline-directed serine/threonine kinases, has been shown as a key regulator of podocyte differentiation, proliferation and morphology. Our previous studies demonstrated that the expression of Cdk5 was significantly increased in podocytes of diabetic rats, and was closely related with podocyte injury of DN. However, the mechanisms of how expression and activity of Cdk5 are regulated under the high glucose environment have not yet been fully elucidated. In this study, we showed that high glucose up-regulated the expression of Cdk5 and its co-activator p35 with a concomitant increase in Cdk5 kinase activity in conditionally immortalized mouse podocytes in vitro. When exposed to 30 mM glucose, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was activated. Most importantly, we found that SB431542, the Tgfbr1 inhibitor, significantly decreased the expression of Cdk5 and p35 and Cdk5 kinase activity in high glucose-treated podocytes. Moreover, high glucose increased the expression of early growth response-1 (Egr-1) via TGF-β1-ERK1/2 pathway in podocytes and inhibition of Egr-1 by siRNA decreased p35 expression and Cdk5 kinase activity. Furthermore, inhibition of Cdk5 kinase activity effectively alleviated podocyte apoptosis induced by high glucose or TGF-β1. Thus, the TGF-β1-ERK1/2-Egr-1 signaling pathway may regulate the p35 expression and Cdk5 kinase activity in high glucose-treated podocytes, which contributes to podocyte injury of DN. 相似文献
