小分子核糖核酸(microRNA)是一类约20个核苷酸单链,在转录后水平调节基因的表达。microRNA广泛分布于人体各个组织器官内,但同时也有显著的组织特异性,不同的组织器官中miRNA的表达强度有显著差异,某些microRNAs在肾脏组织中呈特异性的高表达。肾间质纤维化是各种慢性肾脏病进展至终末期,最终导致器官功能丢失的共同的病理过程和特征。通过多年累积的研究表明,一些特定的microRNAs与肾间质纤维化的进程密切相关,在这个过程中体现出极其复杂的调控机制,发挥多方面的作用。近年来,随着对microRNA的研究进一步深入,本文就microRNAs在肾间质纤维化进程中的表达特点、作用靶点及相关调控机制的研究进展进行如下综述。  相似文献

肾间质纤维化是终末期肾脏病的病理基础,肾脏衰老是肾间质纤维化的危险因素。越来越多的研究证明,脂代谢紊乱会导致肾脏衰老和肾间质纤维化。脂代谢紊乱引起的脂质堆积,会造成脂毒性和细胞应激性损伤,从而诱发衰老与细胞外基质(extracellular matrix,ECM)的分泌。维持脂代谢稳态有助于减轻肾脏衰老与肾间质纤维化的发生发展。脂代谢途径的关键酶和调控蛋白有望成为改善肾脏衰老和肾间质纤维化的潜在靶点。本综述概括了脂代谢紊乱在肾脏衰老和间质纤维化中的作用,并对脂代谢中肾脏衰老和间质纤维化的预防靶点和策略进行了总结,为治疗肾纤维化发现新靶点提供了参考。  相似文献

核糖体蛋白L6/Taxreb107的核定位信号的分析   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3       下载免费PDF全文
核糖体蛋白L6(RpL6,Taxreb107)含有三个具有核定位信号特征的基序.用作者构建的核定位信号捕获系统分析了这些核定位信号是否具有介导蛋白质进行核转位的功能.将RpL6/Taxreb107分段插入核定位信号捕获载体的克隆位点后转化宿主酵母,发现其前两个核定位信号可以介导融合蛋白进入细胞核,而第三个核定位信号无此作用.将RpL6/Taxreb107分段与绿色荧光蛋白融合后转染培养的哺乳类细胞,证实了以上在酵母中所得的结果.进一步发现RpL6/Taxreb107的前两个核定位信号同时具有核仁定位的功能.当在细胞中表达的早期,进入核内的融合蛋白优先定位于核仁.这些结果一方面有助于理解RpL6/Taxreb107核转位的机理,同时说明作者构建的核定位信号捕获系统也可用在蛋白质中寻找核定位信号.  相似文献

Acidic nuclear phosphoprotein 32 family member e (Anp32e) has been reported to contribute to early mammalian development and cancer metastasis. However, the pathophysiological role of Anp32e in renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated that Anp32e was highly expressed in the region of RIF in patients with IgA nephropathy, unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) mouse kidneys, and Boston University mouse proximal tubular (BUMPT) cells when treated with TGF-β1; this upregulation was positively correlated with the total fibrotic area of the kidneys. The overexpression of Anp32e enhanced the TGF-β1-induced production of fibrosis-related proteins (fibronectin (Fn) and collagen type I (Col-I)) in BUMPT cells whereas the knockdown of Anp32e suppressed the deposition of these fibrosis-related proteins in UUO mice and TGF-β1-stimulated BUMPT cells. In particular, Anp32e overexpression alone induced the deposition of Fn and Col-I in both mouse kidneys and BUMPT cells without TGF-β1 stimulation. Furthermore, we revealed that the overexpression of Anp32e induced the expression of TGF-β1 and p-Smad3 while TGF-β1 inhibitor SB431542 reversed the Anp32e-induced upregulation of Fn and Col-I in BUMPT cells without TGF-β1 stimulation. Collectively, our data demonstrate that Anp32e promotes the deposition of fibrosis-related proteins by regulating the TGF-β1/Smad3 pathway.  相似文献

A major feature of the injury sustained by the kidney during obstructive nephropathy is a profound induction of apoptosis in the tubular epithelium. In this study, we explored the central roles of mitochondria and the mechanism of the protective effect of the mitochondrial targeted peptides in tubular cell apoptosis and interstitial fibrosis during obstructive nephropathy. Unilateral ureter obstruction (UUO) was performed on rats, and the animals were randomly assigned to intravenous treatment with normal saline, rat serum albumin (RSA), or HOCl-rat serum albumin (HOCl-RSA) in the presence or absence of SS-31. A sham-operation control group was set up by left ureteral dissociation but not ligation. Compared with the control group, UUO animals displayed fibrotic abnormalities, accompanied by increased expression of collagen-I, fibronectin, α-SMA protein and mRNA in the renal interstitium. They also displayed oxidative stress, as evidenced by increased levels of HOCl-alb, TBARS, and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a decrease in MnSOD activity in the renal homogenate. Damage to mitochondrial structure and functions was observed, as evidenced by a decrease in the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), ATP production, mtDNA copy number alterations and release of cytochrome C (cyto C) from the mitochondria to the cytoplasm. These changes were accompanied by activation of caspase-3, caspase-7, caspase-9, and PARP-1 and increased apoptotic cells in the proximal tubules. HOCl-RSA challenge further exacerbated the above biological effects in UUO animals, but these effects were prevented by administration of SS-31. These data suggested that accumulation of HOCl-alb may promote tubular cell apoptosis and interstitial fibrosis, probably related to mitochondrial oxidative stress and damage, and that SS-31 might contribute to apoptotic pathway suppression via scavenging of ROS in the mitochondria.  相似文献

Protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 plays a critical role in the regulation of a variety of intracellular signaling pathways. SHP-1 is predominantly expressed in the cells of hematopoietic origin, and is recognized as a negative regulator of lymphocyte development and activation. SHP-1 consists of two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains and one protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) domain followed by a highly basic C-terminal tail containing tyrosyl phosphorylation sites. It is unclear how the C-terminal tail regulates SHP-1 function. We report the examination of the subcellular localization of a variety of truncated or mutated SHP-1 proteins fused with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) protein at either the N-terminal or the C-terminal end in different cell lines. Our data demonstrate that a nuclear localization signal (NLS) is located in the C-terminal tail of SHP-1 and the signal is primarily defined by three amino-acid residues (KRK) at the C-terminus. This signal is generally blocked in the native protein and can be exposed by fusing EGFP at the appropriate position or by domain truncation. We have also revealed that this NLS of SHP-1 is triggered by epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation and mediates translocation of SHP-1 from the cytosol to the nucleus in COS7 cell lines. These results not only demonstrate the importance of the C-terminal tail of SHP-1 in the regulation of nuclear localization, but also provide insights into its role in SHP-1-involved signal transduction pathways.  相似文献

Tubulointerstitial fibrosis plays an important role in end‐stage renal failure, and there are only limited therapeutic options available to preserve organ function. In the present study, we identified that nodakenin, a coumarin isolated from the roots of Angelicae gigas, functions effectively against unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)‐induced fibrosis via down‐regulating Snail1 expression. We established UUO‐induced renal fibrosis in mice and then administered with nodakenin orally ata a dose of 1 and 10 mg/kg. The in‐vivo results indicated that nodakenin protected obstructive nephropathy through its anti‐inflammatory and anti‐fibrotic properties. Nodakenin prevented the infiltration of inflammatory cells, alleviated the levels of pro‐inflammatory cytokines, reduced the polarization of macrophages and down‐regulating the aberrant deposition of extracellular matrix at the site of injury. Of note, nodakenin dramatically impeded Smad3, NF‐κB p65 phosphorylation and Snail1 expression. In line with in vivo studies, nodakenin suppressed the expression of Snail1, Smad3 phosphorylation and fibrogenesis in TGF‐β1‐treated renal epithelial cells in‐vitro. Furthermore, we found that the effect of nodaknin against fibrosis was reversed in Snail1 overexpressing cells, whereas nodakenin could not further reduce expression of fibrogenesis in Snail1 silenced cells, suggesting that nodaknein may function through a Snail1‐dependent manner. Collectively, this study reveal a critical role of nodakenin in the cure of renal fibrosis.  相似文献

肾脏免疫区室化与肾小管间质损伤   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
免疫系统区室化(compartmentalization)是近年提出的一个新观念,为人们从整体和局部两方面进一步了解免疫系统提供了新的视角,且有助于对临床疾病免疫机制的阐释。最近肾脏免疫系统区室化现象也已引起人们重视。肾小管损伤和肾间质纤维化是各类肾脏疾病发展到终末期肾衰竭的重要原因和共同通路,也与肾小管间质免疫区室的局部微环境调控密切相关,并涉及区域内树突状细胞等专职免疫细胞,以及具有免疫特性肾小管上皮细胞的共同作用及相互调节,由此影响着肾脏疾病的发生、发展及预后。因此,从肾脏免疫区室化角度进一步探讨肾小管间质损伤机制,有助于深入分析肾脏疾病的病变过程,并可为相关研究及临床诊治提供新的思路。  相似文献
