“…On the other hand, suppression of miR-486 further aggravated hypoxia-induced injury. These results were consistent with previous studies that transfecting of miR-486-5p could reduce ischemic kidney injury [17] and miR-486 attenuated cardiac myocyte damage in vitro [18]. In addition, miR-486 is a potent modulator in cardiac/skeletal muscle [19] and studies from Zhang et al found that upregulation of circulating miR-486 in AMI patients may be related to cardiac hypertrophy [20].…”

Background/Aims: Acute myocardial infarction is a serious disease with high morbidity and mortality. microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proved to play an important role in modulating myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury. Hence, in this study, we constructed H9c2 cell model to elucidate the roles of microRNA-486 (miR-486) in preventing hypoxia-induced damage in H9c2 cells. Methods: H9c2 cells were cultured in hypoxic incubator with 1% O₂ to simulate hypoxia and/or transfected with miR-486 mimic, scramble, anti-miR-486, si-N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) and their corresponding negative controls (NC). Effects of miR-486 and/or NDRG2 dysregulation on hypoxia-induced myocardial injury in H9c2 cells were investigated by evaluating cell viability, migration, invasion and apoptosis using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), transwell assay, flow cytometry, respectively. The proteins expression and RNA expression were detected by western blot and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), respectively. Results: Hypoxia treatment induced damage in H9c2 cells by decreasing cell viability, migration and invasion and increasing cell apoptosis. Moreover, hypoxia inhibited the expression of miR-486 in H9c2 cells. Overexpression of miR-486 alleviated hypoxia-induced myocardial injury in H9c2 cells, while suppression of miR-486 further aggravated hypoxia-induced injury. Furthermore, NDRG2 expression was negatively regulated by miR-486, and NDRG2 was confirmed as a target of miR-486. Knockdown of NDRG2 alleviated the effects of miR-486 suppression on hypoxia-induced myocardial injury. Besides, knockdown of NDRG2 markedly inhibited the activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) /c-jun and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways in hypoxia-induced H9c2 cells. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that miR-486 may alleviate hypoxia-induced myocardial injury possibly by targeting NDRG2 to inactivate JNK/c-jun and NF-κB signaling pathways. miR-486 may be a potential target for treating ischemic myocardial injury following acute myocardial infarction.

“…For instance, transfer of miR-489 expression from human cord blood endothelial colony-forming cell-derived exosomes reduced ischemic kidney injury by targeting phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) through activation of Akt pathway [29]. miR-107 induced TNF-α secretion by targeting Dual-specificity phosphatase 7(DUSP7) in endothelial cells, triggering tubular cell injury in septic AKI [30].…”

BackgroundmiR-214 was demonstrated to be upregulated in models of renal disease and promoted fibrosis in renal injury independent of TGF-β signaling in vivo. However, the detailed role of miR-214 in acute kidney injury (AKI) and its underlying mechanism are still largely unknown.MethodsIn this study, an I/R-induced rat AKI model and a hypoxia-induced NRK-52E cell model were used to study AKI. The concentrations of kidney injury markers serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and kidney injury molecule-1 were measured. The expressions of miR-214, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, were detected by RT-qPCR. The protein levels of Bcl-2, Bax, Dickkopf-related protein 3, β-catenin, c-myc, and cyclinD1 were determined by western blot. Cell apoptosis and caspase 3 activity were evaluated by flow cytometry analysis and caspase 3 activity assay, respectively. Luciferase reporter assay was used to confirm the interaction between miR-214 and Dkk3.ResultsmiR-214 expression was induced in ischemia–reperfusion (I/R)-induced AKI rat and hypoxic incubation of NRK-52E cells. Overexpression of miR-214 alleviated hypoxia-induced NRK-52E cell apoptosis while inhibition of miR-214 expression exerted the opposite effect. Dkk3 was identified as a target of miR-214. Anti-miR-214 abolished the inhibitory effects of DKK3 knockdown on hypoxia-induced NRK-52E cell apoptosis by inactivation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Moreover, miR-214 ameliorated AKI in vivo by inhibiting apoptosis and fibrosis through targeting Dkk3 and activating Wnt/β-catenin pathway.ConclusionmiR-214 ameliorates AKI by inhibiting apoptosis through targeting Dkk3 and activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, offering the possibility of miR-214 in the therapy of ischemic AKI.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s40659-018-0179-2) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is a hallmark of advanced diabetic kidney disease that is linked to a decline in renal function, however the pathogenic mechanisms are poorly understood. Microparticles (MPs) are 100–1000 nm vesicles shed from injured cells that are implicated in intercellular signalling. Our lab recently observed the formation of MPs from podocytes and their release into urine of animal models of type 1 and 2 diabetes and in humans with type 1 diabetes. The purpose of the present study was to examine the role of podocyte MPs in tubular epithelial cell fibrotic responses. MPs were isolated from the media of differentiated, untreated human podocytes (hPODs) and administered to cultured human proximal tubule epithelial cells (PTECs). Treatment with podocyte MPs increased p38 and Smad3 phosphorylation and expression of the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins fibronectin and collagen type IV. MP-induced responses were attenuated by co-treatment with the p38 inhibitor SB202190. A transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) receptor inhibitor (LY2109761) blocked MP-induced Smad3 phosphorylation and ECM protein expression but not p38 phosphorylation suggesting that these responses occurred downstream of p38. Finally, blockade of the class B scavenger receptor CD36 completely abrogated MP-mediated p38 phosphorylation, downstream Smad3 activation and fibronectin/collagen type IV induction. Taken together our results suggest that podocyte MPs interact with proximal tubule cells and induce pro-fibrotic responses. Such interactions may contribute to the development of tubular fibrosis in glomerular disease.
