Abstract
Nephrolithiasis is a major public health concern associated with high morbidity and recurrence. Despite decades of research, the pathogenesis of nephrolithiasis remains incompletely understood, and effective prevention is lacking. An increasing body of evidence suggests that non-coding RNAs, especially microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), play a role in stone formation and stone-related kidney injury. MiRNAs have been studied quite extensively in nephrolithiasis, and a plethora of specific miRNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of nephrolithiasis, involving remarkable changes in calcium metabolism, oxalate metabolism, oxidative stress, cell-crystal adhesion, cellular autophagy, apoptosis, and macrophage (Mp) polarization and metabolism. Emerging evidence suggests a potential for miRNAs as novel diagnostic biomarkers of nephrolithiasis. LncRNAs act as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to bind miRNAs, thereby modulating mRNA expression to participate in the regulation of physiological mechanisms in kidney stones. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) may provide a novel approach to kidney stone prevention and treatment by treating related metabolic conditions that cause kidney stones. Further investigation into these non-coding RNAs will generate novel insights into the mechanisms of renal stone formation and stone-related renal injury and might lead to new strategies for diagnosing and treating this disease.

Zhang Q, Wei H, Huang G, Jin L. CCL7 and olfactory transduction pathway activation play an important role in the formation of CaOx and CaP kidney stones. Front Genet 2024; 14:1267545. [PMID: 38235001 PMCID: PMC10791818 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2023.1267545] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: The deposition of calcium oxalate (CaOx) and calcium phosphate (CaP) is the most common cause of kidney stone disease (KSD). Whether KSDs caused by CaOx and CaP have common genetic targets or signaling pathways remained unclear. Methods: The present study utilized public data GSE73680 to analyze differentially expressed genes between CaOx or CaP tissues and normal tissues, respectively. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis of co-DEGs were performed. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed to identify hub genes, and the top hub gene was selected for gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Finally, real-time PCR of patients' urine was performed to validate the bioinformatic results. Results: In total, 155 significantly co-upregulated DEGs and 64 co-downregulated DEGs were obtained from the datasets. The Gene Ontology analysis showed that DEGs were significantly enriched in chemical stimulus in sensory perception, detection of chemical stimulus in sensory perception of smell, and olfactory receptor activity. The KEGG analysis showed that the olfactory transduction pathway was significantly enriched. According to protein-protein interaction, 10 genes were identified as the hub genes, and CCL7 was the top hub gene. The olfactory transduction, maturity-onset diabetes of the young, linoleic acid metabolism, and fat digestion and absorption were significantly enriched in the high-CCL7 subgroup by GSEA. In total, 9 patients who had primarily CaOx mixed with some CaP stones and 9 healthy subjects were enrolled. The RT-PCR results showed that CCL7 level in the stone group was significantly higher than that in the control group (p < 0.05). For the olfactory transduction pathway, the expression of OR10A5, OR9A2, and OR1L3 was significantly upregulated in the stone group compared with the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: CCL7 may play a key role in the development of both CaOx and CaP, and this process may depend on olfactory transduction pathway activation.

Abstract
Epigenetic regulation is reported to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of various kidney diseases, including renal cell carcinoma, acute kidney injury, renal fibrosis, diabetic nephropathy, and lupus nephritis. However, the role of epigenetic regulation in calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal deposition-induced kidney injury remains unclear. Our study demonstrated that the upregulation of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2)-mediated ferroptosis facilitates CaOx-induced kidney injury. CaOx crystal deposition promoted ferroptosis in vivo and in vitro. Usage of liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1), a ferroptosis inhibitor, mitigated CaOx-induced kidney damage. Single-nucleus RNA-sequencing, RNA-sequencing, immunohistochemical and western blotting analyses revealed that EZH2 was upregulated in kidney stone patients, kidney stone mice, and oxalate-stimulated HK-2 cells. Experiments involving in vivo EZH2 knockout, in vitro EZH2 knockdown, and in vivo GSK-126 (an EZH2 inhibitor) treatment confirmed the protective effects of EZH2 inhibition on kidney injury and ferroptosis. Mechanistically, the results of RNA-sequencing and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays demonstrated that EZH2 regulates ferroptosis by suppressing solute carrier family 7, member 11 (SLC7A11) expression through trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3) modification. Additionally, SOX4 regulated ferroptosis by directly modulating EZH2 expression. Thus, this study demonstrated that SOX4 facilitates ferroptosis in CaOx-induced kidney injury through EZH2/H3K27me3-mediated suppression of SLC7A11.

STAT6 promoting oxalate crystal deposition-induced renal fibrosis by mediating macrophage-to-myofibroblast transition via inhibiting fatty acid oxidation. Inflamm Res 2023; 72:2111-2126. [PMID: 37924395 DOI: 10.1007/s00011-023-01803-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN Kidney stones commonly occur with a 50% recurrence rate within 5 years, and can elevate the risk of chronic kidney disease. Macrophage-to-myofibroblast transition (MMT) is a newly discovered mechanism that leads to progressive fibrosis in different forms of kidney disease. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of MMT in renal fibrosis in glyoxylate-induced kidney stone mice and the mechanism by which signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) regulates MMT. METHODS We collected non-functioning kidneys from patients with stones, established glyoxylate-induced calcium oxalate stone mice model and treated AS1517499 every other day in the treatment group, and constructed a STAT6-knockout RAW264.7 cell line. We first screened the enrichment pathway of the model by transcriptome sequencing; detected renal injury and fibrosis by hematoxylin eosin staining, Von Kossa staining and Sirius red staining; detected MMT levels by multiplexed immunofluorescence and flow cytometry; and verified the binding site of STAT6 at the PPARα promoter by chromatin immunoprecipitation. Fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and fibrosis-related genes were detected by western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS In this study, we found that FAO was downregulated, macrophages converted to myofibroblasts, and STAT6 expression was elevated in stone patients and glyoxylate-induced kidney stone mice. The promotion of FAO in macrophages attenuated MMT and upregulated fibrosis-related genes induced by calcium oxalate treatment. Further, inhibition of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα) eliminated the effect of STAT6 deletion on FAO and fibrosis-associated protein expression. Pharmacological inhibition of STAT6 also prevented the development of renal injury, lipid accumulation, MMT, and renal fibrosis. Mechanistically, STAT6 transcriptionally represses PPARα and FAO through cis-inducible elements located in the promoter region of the gene, thereby promoting MMT and renal fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS These findings establish a role for STAT6 in kidney stone injury-induced renal fibrosis, and suggest that STAT6 may be a therapeutic target for progressive renal fibrosis in patients with nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
Kidney stone disease causes significant morbidity and increases health care utilization. In this work, we decipher the cellular and molecular niche of the human renal papilla in patients with calcium oxalate (CaOx) stone disease and healthy subjects. In addition to identifying cell types important in papillary physiology, we characterize collecting duct cell subtypes and an undifferentiated epithelial cell type that was more prevalent in stone patients. Despite the focal nature of mineral deposition in nephrolithiasis, we uncover a global injury signature characterized by immune activation, oxidative stress and extracellular matrix remodeling. We also identify the association of MMP7 and MMP9 expression with stone disease and mineral deposition, respectively. MMP7 and MMP9 are significantly increased in the urine of patients with CaOx stone disease, and their levels correlate with disease activity. Our results define the spatial molecular landscape and specific pathways contributing to stone-mediated injury in the human papilla and identify associated urinary biomarkers.

Abstract
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones are among the most common types of kidney stones and are associated with renal tubular damage, interstitial fibrosis, and chronic kidney disease. The mechanism of CaOx crystal-induced renal fibrosis remains unknown. Ferroptosis, a type of regulated cell death, is characterised by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, and the tumour suppressor p53 is a key regulator of ferroptosis. In the present study, our results demonstrated that ferroptosis was significantly activated in patients with nephrolithiasis and hyperoxaluric mice as well as verified the protective effects of ferroptosis inhibition on CaOx crystal-induced renal fibrosis. Moreover, the single-cell sequencing database, RNA-sequencing, and western blot analysis revealed that the expression of p53 was increased in patients with chronic kidney disease and the oxalate-stimulated human renal tubular epithelial cell line, HK-2. Additionally, the acetylation of p53 was enhanced by oxalate stimulation in HK-2 cells. Mechanistically, we found that the induction of p53 deacetylation, owing to either the SRT1720-induced activation of deacetylase sirtuin 1 or the triple mutation of p53, inhibited ferroptosis and alleviated renal fibrosis caused by CaOx crystals. We conclude that ferroptosis is one of the critical mechanisms contributing to CaOx crystal-induced renal fibrosis, and the pharmacological induction of ferroptosis via sirtuin 1-mediated p53 deacetylation may be a potential target for preventing renal fibrosis in patients with nephrolithiasis.

Abstract
AbstractChemokines are key components in the pathology of chronic diseases. Chemokine CC motif ligand 7 (CCL7) is believed to be associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and kidney disease. CCL7 may play a role in inflammatory events by attracting macrophages and monocytes to further amplify inflammatory processes and contribute to disease progression. However, CCL7-specific pathological signaling pathways need to be further confirmed in these chronic diseases. Given the multiple redundancy system among chemokines and their receptors, further experimental and clinical studies are needed to clarify whether direct CCL7 inhibition mechanisms could be a promising therapeutic approach to attenuating the development of cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and kidney disease.
