WTAP-mediated N6-methyladenosine modification promotes the inflammation, mitochondrial damage and ferroptosis of kidney tubular epithelial cells in acute kidney injury by regulating LMNB1 expression and activating NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 pathways.
Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes 2024 March 23
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication of sepsis patients, but the pathogenic mechanisms underlying AKI are still largely unclear. In this view, the roles of the key component of N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-wilms tumor 1 associated protein (WTAP) in AKI progression were investigated. AKI mice model was established by using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). AKI cell model was established by treating HK-2 cells with LPS. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL) staining and flow cytometry analysis. Cell viability was analyzed by 3-(4, 5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2, 5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The concentrations of inflammatory factors were examined with ELISA kits. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH) and Fe2+ levels were detected with related kits. Gene expression was detected by western blot assay or quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assay. The relation between WTAP and lamin B1 (LMNB1) was verified by Methylated RNA Immunoprecipitation (meRIP) assay, RIP assay, dual-luciferase reporter assay and Actinomycin D assay. CLP induced significant pathological changes in kidney tissues in mice and promoted inflammation, mitochondrial damage and ferroptosis. LMNB1 level was induced in HK-2 cells by LPS. LMNB1 knockdown promoted LPS-mediated HK-2 cell viability and inhibited LPS-mediated HK-2 cell apoptosis, inflammation, mitochondrial damage and ferroptosis. Then, WTAP was demonstrated to promote LMNB1 expression by m6A Methylation modification. Moreover, WTAP knockdown repressed LPS-treated HK-2 cell apoptosis, inflammation, mitochondrial damage and ferroptosis, while LMNB1 overexpression reversed the effects. Additionally, WTAP affected the pathways of NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 by LMNB1. WTAP-mediated m6A promoted the inflammation, mitochondrial damage and ferroptosis in LPS-induced HK-2 cells by regulating LMNB1 expression and activating NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 pathways.
