Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein F deficiency in mouse podocyte promotes podocytopathy mediated by methyltransferase-like 14 nuclear translocation resulting in Sirtuin 1 gene inhibition. Transl Res 2024; 267:1-9. [PMID: 38195017 DOI: 10.1016/j.trsl.2024.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2024] [Indexed: 01/11/2024]
Abstract
Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein F (HnRNP F) is a key regulator for nucleic acid metabolism; however, whether HnRNP F expression is important in maintaining podocyte integrity is unclear. Nephroseq analysis from a registry of human kidney biopsies was performed. Age- and sex-matched podocyte-specific HnRNP F knockout (HnRNP FPOD KO) mice and control (HnRNP Ffl/fl) were studied. Podocytopathy was induced in male mice (more susceptible) either by adriamycin (ADR)- or low-dose streptozotocin treatment for 2 or 8 weeks. The mouse podocyte cell line (mPODs) was used in vitro. Nephroseq data in three human cohorts were varied greatly. Both sexes of HnRNP FPOD KO mice were fertile and appeared grossly normal. However, male 20-week-old HnRNP FPOD KO than HnRNP Ffl/fl mice had increased urinary albumin/creatinine ratio, and lower expression of podocyte markers. ADR- or diabetic- HnRNP FPOD KO (vs. HnRNP Ffl/fl) mice had more severe podocytopathy. Moreover, methyltransferase-like 14 (Mettl14) gene expression was increased in podocytes from HnRNP FPOD KO mice, further enhanced in ADR- or diabetic-treated HnRNP FPOD KO mice. Consequently, this elevated Mettl14 expression led to sirtuin1 (Sirt1) inhibition, associated with podocyte loss. In mPODs, knock-down of HnRNP F promoted Mettl14 nuclear translocation, which was associated with podocyte dysmorphology and Sirt1 inhibition-mediated podocyte loss. This process was more severe in ADR- or high glucose- treated mPODs. Conclusion: HnRNP F deficiency in podocytes promotes podocytopathy through activation of Mettl14 expression and its nuclear translocation to inhibit Sirt1 expression, underscoring the protective role of HnRNP F against podocyte injury.

Pharmacol Rev 2022; 74:1051-1135. [PMID: 36180112 PMCID: PMC9553111 DOI: 10.1124/pharmrev.120.000281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2020] [Revised: 05/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Discovered more than 30 years ago, the angiotensin AT2 receptor (AT2R) has evolved from a binding site with unknown function to a firmly established major effector within the protective arm of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and a target for new drugs in development. The AT2R represents an endogenous protective mechanism that can be manipulated in the majority of preclinical models to alleviate lung, renal, cardiovascular, metabolic, cutaneous, and neural diseases as well as cancer. This article is a comprehensive review summarizing our current knowledge of the AT2R, from its discovery to its position within the RAS and its overall functions. This is followed by an in-depth look at the characteristics of the AT2R, including its structure, intracellular signaling, homo- and heterodimerization, and expression. AT2R-selective ligands, from endogenous peptides to synthetic peptides and nonpeptide molecules that are used as research tools, are discussed. Finally, we summarize the known physiological roles of the AT2R and its abundant protective effects in multiple experimental disease models and expound on AT2R ligands that are undergoing development for clinical use. The present review highlights the controversial aspects and gaps in our knowledge of this receptor and illuminates future perspectives for AT2R research. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The angiotensin AT2 receptor (AT2R) is now regarded as a fully functional and important component of the renin-angiotensin system, with the potential of exerting protective actions in a variety of diseases. This review provides an in-depth view of the AT2R, which has progressed from being an enigma to becoming a therapeutic target.
