Renal adaptive response to exposure to low doses of uranyl nitrate and sodium fluoride in mice. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2021; 64:126708. [PMID: 33360916 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2020.126708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Revised: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 12/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite their differences in physicochemical properties, both uranium (U) and fluoride (F) are nephrotoxicants at high doses but their adverse effects at low doses are still the subject of debate. METHODS This study aims to improve the knowledge of the biological mechanisms involved through an adaptive response model of C57BL/6 J mice chronically exposed to low priming doses of U (0, 10, 20 and 40 mg/L) or F (0, 15, 30 and 50 mg/L) and then challenged with acute exposure of 5 mg/kg U or 7.5 mg/kg NaF. RESULTS We showed that an adaptive response occurred with priming exposures to 20 mg/L U and 50 mg/L F, with decreased levels of the biomarkers KIM-1 and CLU compared to those in animals that received the challenge dose only (positive control). The adaptive mechanisms involved a decrease in caspase 3/7 activities in animals exposed to 20 mg/L U and a decrease in in situ VCAM expression in mice exposed to 50 mg/L F. However, autophagy and the UPR were induced independently of priming exposure to U or F and could not be identified as adaptive mechanisms to U or F. CONCLUSION Taken together, these results allow us to identify renal adaptive responses to U and F at doses of 20 and 50 mg/L, probably through decrease apoptosis and inflammatory cell recruitment.

Cytoresistance after acute kidney injury is limited to the recovery period of proximal tubule integrity and possibly involves Hippo-YAP signaling. Physiol Rep 2017; 5:5/11/e13310.

Abstract
Rat proximal tubule (PT) cells that have recovered from severe acute kidney injury induced by uranyl acetate (UA) develop cytoresistance to subsequent UA treatments. We reported that enhanced G1 arrest might contribute to cytoresistance. Herein, we examined these mechanisms by investigating Yes-associated protein (YAP), a regulator of cell number, and survivin, a downstream mediator of YAP that inhibits apoptosis. Rats pretreated with saline (vehicle group) or UA (AKI group) were injected with UA 2 weeks, 2 months, or 6 months after treatment. Cytoresistance, evaluated by serum creatinine, was observed at 2 weeks, was attenuated at 2 months, and was lost at 6 months in the AKI group. Based on immunohistochemistry, overexpressed YAP/survivin in PT cells and an increased number of PT cells was found before the second insult at 2 weeks, regressed gradually, and returned to a normal value by 6 months in the AKI group. Cell cycle status, assessed by flow cytometry, was equivalent in all groups before the second insult. However, early G1 phase (cyclin D1-) and p27+ PT cells increased in the AKI group compared to those in the vehicle group until 2 months, but were comparable to those in the vehicle group at 6 months. p21+ PT cells increased at 2 weeks, but normalized by 2 months. Thus, PT cells that have recovered from AKI transiently overexpress YAP/survivin, probably inhibiting apoptosis and resulting in acquired cytoresistance. This effect occurs until PT remodeling is complete, subceullular PT integrity is restored, and cell numbers are normalized.

Abstract
Rats that have recovered from severe proximal tubule (PT) injury induced by uranyl acetate (UA), a toxic stimulus, developed resistance to subsequent UA treatment. We investigated cell cycle status and progression in PT cells in relation to this acquired resistance. Fourteen days after pretreatment with saline (vehicle group) or UA [acute kidney injury (AKI) group], rats were injected with UA or lead acetate (a proliferative stimulus). Cell cycle status (G0/G1/S/G2/M) was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of cell cycle markers, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, and phenotypic markers were examined by immunohistochemistry. Cell cycle status in PT cells in the AKI group was comparable to those of the vehicle group. However, more early G1-phase cells (cyclin D1- or Ki67-) and p21+ or p27+ cells were found in the PT of the AKI group than in that of the vehicle group. UA induced G1 arrest and inhibited S phase progression with earlier dedifferentiation and less apoptosis in PT cells of the AKI group. Lead acetate induced proliferation without dedifferentiation but with delayed G0-G1 transition and inhibited S phase progression in PT cells in the AKI group. Sustained p21 and increased p27 expression in PT cells were found in the AKI group in response to UA and lead acetate. PT cells in the AKI group inhibited cell cycle progression by enhanced G1 arrest, probably via p21/p27 modulation as an injury or proliferation response, resulting in cytoresistance to rechallenge injury.

A high ratio of G1 to G0 phase cells and an accumulation of G1 phase cells before S phase progression after injurious stimuli in the proximal tubule. Physiol Rep 2014; 2:e12173.

Abstract
Proximal tubule (PT) cells can proliferate explosively after injurious stimuli. To investigate this proliferative capacity, we examined cell cycle status and the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27, a G1 phase mediator, in PT cells after a proliferative or injurious stimulus. Rats were treated with lead acetate (proliferative stimulus) or uranyl acetate (UA; injurious stimulus). Isolated tubular cells were separated into PT and distal tubule (DT) cells by density-gradient centrifugation. Cell cycle status was analyzed with flow cytometry by using the Hoechst 33342/pyronin Y method. Most PT and DT cells from control rats were in G0/G1 phase, with a higher percentage of PT cells than DT cells in G1 phase. Lead acetate and UA administration promoted the G0-G1 transition and the accumulation of G1 phase cells before S phase progression. In PT cells from rats treated with lead acetate or a subnephrotoxic dose of UA, p27 levels increased or did not change, possibly reflecting G1 arrest. In contrast, p27 became undetectable before the appearance of apoptotic cells in rats treated with a nephrotoxic dose of UA. The decrease in p27 might facilitate rapid cell cycling. The decreased number of p27-positive cells was associated with PT cell proliferation in renal tissues after a proliferative or injurious stimulus. The findings suggest that a high ratio of G1 to G0 phase cells and a rapid accumulation of G1 phase cells before S phase progression in the PT is a biological strategy for safe, timely, and explosive cell proliferation in response to injurious stimuli.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported that rats that had recovered from mild proximal tubule (PT) injury induced by a sub-toxic dose of uranyl acetate (UA) showed partial resistance to a subsequent nephrotoxic dose of UA in association with reduced renal dysfunction and accelerated PT proliferation. We demonstrated that this resistance may involve hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/c-Met signaling. Here, we examined whether primary cultured tubular cells derived from this model had acquired sensitivity to HGF. METHODS Tubular cells were isolated by collagenase digestion from rat kidneys after recovery from UA-induced mild PT injury and were cultured for 48 h. Their survival and proliferation were examined using the MTS assay/5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine labeling or MTS assay, respectively, and their migration was assayed using wound-healing and cell scattering assays, with/without HGF. HGF/c-Met signaling was assayed using phospho-specific antibodies. RESULTS HGF-stimulated cultured tubular cells from UA-treated rats showed better survival after UA exposure and higher proliferation and migration than cells from vehicle-treated rats. Furthermore, HGF induced higher phosphorylation of c-Met (Tyr1234/1235) and of its major downstream signals (AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2) with maintained dephosphorylation of Ser985 as a negative regulator of HGF/c-Met signaling in the tubular cells of UA-treated rats compared to those of vehicle-treated rats. Immunohistochemically, dephosphorylated Ser985 was confirmed in PT cells in vivo. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that elevated sensitivity to HGF, via dephosphorylated Ser985 of c-Met of tubular cells that had recovered from mild tubular injury, may be associated with cytoprotection, accelerated proliferation and migration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After incision keratinocytes in the epidermis become activated to produce a range of pain-related mediators. microRNA 203 (miR-203) is known to be involved in keratinocyte growth, differentiation, and skin inflammation. We hypothesized that one or more of these mediators might be under the control of miR-203. METHODS The expression of miR-203 and its target gene, phospholipase A2 activating protein (PLAA), were examined after hind paw incision in mice. We investigated the local effect of intraplantar PLAA peptide injection in normal mice and the effects of a selective secretory phospholipase A2 inhibitor (HK064) on PLAA or incision-induced mechanical allodynia. Last, we investigated the role of substance P signaling in regulating miR-203 and PLAA expression in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS Levels of miR-203 were strongly down-regulated in keratinocytes after incision. Informatics-based approaches identified PLAA as a likely candidate for regulation by miR-203. PLAA caused mechanical allodynia and conditioned place aversion but not thermal sensitization. HK064 reduced mechanical allodynia after incision and after intraplantar injection of PLAA. Using preprotachykinin gene knockout mice or with neurokinin-1 selective antagonist LY303870 treatment, we observed that substance P-mediated signaling was also required for miR-203 and PLAA regulation after incision. Finally, using the rat epidermal keratinocyte cell line, we observed that a miR-203 mimic molecule could block the substance P-induced increase in PLAA expression observed under control conditions. CONCLUSIONS miR-203 may regulate expression of the novel nociceptive mediator PLAA after incision. Furthermore, the regulation of miR-203 and PLAA levels is reliant upon intact substance P signaling.

Abstract
Tissues are equipped with reasonable strategies for repair and regeneration and the renal proximal tubule (PT) is no exception. New information has become available on the mode of PT regeneration in mammals. Unlike the intestinal epithelium with a high rate of turnover maintained by the stem cell system, the kidney has low turnover under normal physiological conditions. The PT seems to be maintained physiologically by hyperplasia, a regenerating system with self-renewal of mature tubular cells. This mode of regeneration is advantageous for effective replenishment of randomly isolated and eliminated tubular cells by self-renewal of adjacent cells. On the other hand, it has been suggested that dedifferentiation of mature tubular cells plays a role in regeneration after acute kidney injury. Recent studies employing genetic labeling and DNA-labeling techniques have confirmed that the proliferation of preexisting injured mature tubular cells contributes mainly to PT regeneration in ischemic reperfusion injury. This mode of regeneration is beneficial with regard to the rapid reparation of focally injured tubules often induced by ischemic reperfusion injury. What happens, however, when the PT is homogeneously injured with almost no remaining surviving cells Is the PT equipped with another backup regeneration system, e.g., the stem cell system Is it possible that certain types of renal injuries evoke a stem cell response whereas others do not This review focuses on all three possible modes of tissue regeneration (compensatory hyperplasia, dedifferentiation and stem cell system) in mammals and their involvement in PT regeneration in health and disease.
