Objective To study the effect of tranilast on cyclosporine A (CsA)-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in human renal tubular epithelial cells, and investigate the mechanism of its antifibrotic effect. Methods Cultured HK-2 cells were divided into four groups: (1)In the control group, cells were treated without any medicine; (2) The cell were treated with CsA (4. 2μmol/L) for 72 h; (3) The cells were treated with a combination of CsA (4. 2 μmol/L) and tranilast (100μmol/L); (4) The cells were treated with tranilast (100 μmol/L) alone for 72 h.Morphological changes of the cells were assessed by phase-contrast microscopy. The immunofluorescence and Western blotting were adopted to detect the expression of E-cadherin, α-SMA and OPN mRNA and proteins respectively. Results Tranilast could markedly ameliorate the morphological changes of HK-2 cells stimulated by CsA. The irmmunofluorescence staining revealed the expression of E-cadherin was markedly decreased in HK-2 cells stimulated with CsA for 72 as compared with the control group, while the expression of α-SMA and OPN was significantly higher in CsA group than the control group. The expression of E-cadherin in the CsA + Tranilast group was higher than the CsA group, while the expression of α-SMA and OPN in the CsA + Tranilast group was lower than the CsA group. Western blotting showed that protein expression level of E-cadherin in CsA group was dramatically lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05), while that of α-SMA and OPN in CsA group was significantly higher than in the control group (P<0.05). The protein expression level of E-cadherin in HK-2 cells in the CsA + Tranilast group was markedly higher than in the CsA group (P<0.05), and that of α-SMA and OPN in CsA + Tranilast group was significantly lower than in the CsA group (P<0. 05). Conclusion Tranilast can block the CsA-induced epithelialto-mesenchymal transition in HK-2 cells probably by suppressing the expression of OPN. 相似文献

目的 研究曲尼司特(Tran)对环孢素A(CsA)诱导的人肾小管上皮细胞(HK-2)向间充质转变的影响,并探讨该药抗纤维化的机制.方法 所有用于实验的HK-2细胞株均为8~12代细胞,分为4组:(1)空白对照组,收获细胞,不做任何处理;(2)CsA组,加入4.2μmol/LCsA;(3)CsA+Tran组,预先加入100μmol/L Tran,作用2 h后再加入4.2 μmol/L CsA;(4)Tran组,仅加入100μmol/L Tran.72 h后于共聚焦显微镜下观察各组细胞形态学变化;用免疫荧光法以及免疫印迹法检测各组钙黏蛋白(E-cadherin)、平滑肌肌动蛋白α(α-SMA)和骨桥蛋白(OPN)的表达.结果 HK-2细胞在正常情况下表现为典型的"鹅卵石"样形态,细胞圆钝,且与邻近的细胞连接较为紧密;空白对照组和Tran组细胞表现为典型的HK-2细胞形态;CsA组细胞变狭长,甚至向周边伸出"伪足"样改变,细胞间连接较为稀疏;CsA+Tran组的细胞形态学改变有明显改善.CsA组细胞E-cadherin荧光表达强度明显弱于对照组,α-SMA、OPN荧光表达强于对照组;CsA+Tran组细胞E-cadherin荧光表达强于CsA组,α-SMA、OPN荧光表达弱于CsA组.免疫印迹检查中,CsA组细胞E-cadherin 的表达明显低于对照组,而α-SMA、OPN的表达明显高于对照组,CsA+Tran组细胞E-cadherin的表达高于CsA组,而α-SMA、OPN的表达低于CsA组.结论 曲尼司特能抑制CsA诱导的HK-2细胞由肾小管上皮向间充质细胞转化的过程,其机制可能与抑制OPN的表达有关.Abstract: Objective To study the effect of tranilast on cyclosporine A (CsA)-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in human renal tubular epithelial cells, and investigate the mechanism of its antifibrotic effect.

Objective To examine the relationship of the inhibitory effect of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by TGF-β1 in HK2 cells with the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and PI3K-Akt pathway. Methods The cultured HK2 cells were divided into the following groups: normal control group, TGF-β1 (5 μg/L) group, VEGF (100 μg/L) group, TGF-β1 plus VEGF group. LY294002 (25 μmol/L), the blocker of PI3K-Akt pathway, was added to each of above-mentioned groups for the second part of the study, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and E-cadherin expressions of HK2 cells were assessed with double-stain immunocytochemistry method. The mRNA and protein expressions of α-SMA and CTGF of cells were assessed with RT-PCR and Western blot. The expressions of fibronectin (FN) and collagen Ⅰ (Col Ⅰ) in medium were assessed with ELISA. Results The expressions of α-SMA and CTGF significantly increased in HK2 cells treated with TGF-β1 compared with those in normal control (P<0.05), while significantly decreased in cells co-treated with TGF-β1 and VEGF compared with those treated with TGF-β1 alone (P<0.05, respectively). The expression of E-cadherin was exactly opposite to that of α-SMA. When LY294002 was added to TGF-β1 and VEGF co-treated cells, the expressions of α-SMA, CTGF, FN and Col Ⅰ were markedly up-regulated, when compared with those without LY294002 treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion Inhibitory effect of VEGF on TGF-β1-induced EMT of HK2 ceils in vitro may be related to down-regulation of CTGF expression and reduction of FN and Col Ⅰ, which may be partly dependent on PI3K-Akt pathway. 相似文献
