(Pro)renin Receptor-Dependent Induction of Profibrotic Factors Is Mediated by COX-2/EP4/NOX-4/Smad Pathway in Collecting Duct Cells

Abstract: The binding of prorenin to the (pro)renin receptor (PRR) triggers the activation of MAPK/ERK1/2 pathway, induction of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), NOX-4-dependent production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the induction of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and profibrotic factors connecting tissue growth factor (CTGF) and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-I) in collecting duct (CD) cells. However, the role of COX-2 and the intracellular pathways involved are not clear. We hypothesized that the PRR act… Show more

“…Increased PRR abundance in the CD might be twice harmful. On one side, it results in increases in renin activity and intratubular Ang II formation 9 , 28 , 29 , if renal AGT and ACE activity, are present. On the other side, it triggers intracellular signals that upregulate pro-fibrotic factors 12 , 48 , 52 .…”

“…The M-1 cell line derived from the CD of mice 28 , was purchased from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, Manassas, VA). M-1 cells are composed by principal and intercalated cells, this cell model has been validated previously 29 31 . Prior to the experiments, M-1 cells were maintained in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)/F-12 medium (LIFE TECHNOLOGIES, Carlsbad, CA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), growth factors (transferrin, insulin, and sodium selenite at physiological concentrations), 100 nmol/L dexamethasone and 5 mM glucose.…”

“…A similar effect was observed in the 2‐kidney, 1‐clip (2K1C) renal ischemia rats, where PRR shRNA treatment significantly attenuated the COX‐2 expression in kidney but the Ang II levels in the renal interstitial fluid were unaffected 38 . In addition, PGE 2 augments prorenin/renin protein expression in cultured M‐1 CD cells, subsequently activates PRR to stimulate the COX‐2 expression and further PGE 2 synthesis, 39 then increases the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI‐1) and connecting tissue growth factor (CTGF) via EP 4 receptor and TGF‐β receptor‐dependent Smad pathway 16 …”

“…38 In addition, PGE 2 augments prorenin/renin protein expression in cultured M-1 CD cells, subsequently activates PRR to stimulate the COX-2 expression and further PGE 2 synthesis, 39 then increases the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and connecting tissue growth factor (CTGF) via EP 4 receptor and TGF-β receptor-dependent Smad pathway. 16 The binding of prorenin to PRR not only induces the non-proteolytic activation of prorenin to increase its enzymatic activity, but also triggers the activation of ERK1/2 5 . As discussed above, enhanced ERK1/2 activity but not the increased enzymatic activity of prorenin/renin contributes to the upregulation of COX-2 expression in MD and/or renal medulla.…”
