Abstract Renal tubular cell death is the key factor of the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) kidney injury. Ferroptosis is a type of regulated cell death (RCD) found in various diseases. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms related to ferroptosis in renal I/R injury remain unclear. In the present study, we investigated the regulatory role of microRNAs on ferroptosis in I/R-induced renal injury. We established the I/R-induced renal injury model in rats, and H/R induced HK-2 cells injury in vitro. CCK-8 was used to measure cell viability. Fe2+ and ROS levels were assayed to evaluate the activation of ferroptosis. We performed RNA sequencing to profile the miRNAs expression in H/R-induced injury and ferroptosis. Western blot analysis was used to detect the protein expression. qRT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA and miRNA levels in cells and tissues. We further used luciferase reporter assay to verify the direct targeting effect of miRNA. We found that ischemia/reperfusion-induced ferroptosis in rat’s kidney. We identified that miR-182-5p and miR-378a-3p were upregulated in the ferroptosis and H/R-induced injury, and correlates reversely with glutathione peroxidases 4 (GPX4) and solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) expression in renal I/R injury tissues, respectively. In vitro studies showed that miR-182-5p and miR-378a-3p induced ferroptosis in cells. We further found that miR-182-5p and miR-378a-3p regulated the expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 negatively by directly binding to the 3′UTR of GPX4 and SLC7A11 mRNA. In vivo study showed that silencing miR-182-5p and miR-378a-3p alleviated the I/R-induced renal injury in rats. In conclusion, we demonstrated that I/R induced upregulation of miR-182-5p and miR-378a-3p, leading to activation of ferroptosis in renal injury through downregulation of GPX4 and SLC7A11.

Increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the subsequent DNA damage and excessive activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemic injury. We previously demonstrated that pharmacological inhibition of PARP protects against ischemic renal injury (IRI) in rats (Martin DR, Lewington AJ, Hammerman MR, and Padanilam BJ. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 279: R1834–R1840, 2000). To further define the role of PARP-1 in IRI, we tested whether genetic ablation of PARP-1 attenuates tissue injury after renal ischemia. Twenty-four hours after reperfusion following 37 min of bilateral renal pedicle occlusion, the effects of the injury on renal functions in PARP−/− and PARP+/+ mice were assessed by determining glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and the plasma levels of creatinine. The levels of plasma creatinine were decreased and GFR was augmented in PARP−/− mice. Morphological evaluation of the kidney tissues showed that the extent of damage due to the injury in PARP−/− mice was less compared with their wild-type counterparts. The levels of ROS and DNA damage were comparable in the injured kidneys of PARP+/+ and PARP−/− mice. PARP activity was induced in ischemic kidneys of PARP+/+ mice at 6–24 h postinjury. At 6, 12, and 24 h after injury, ATP levels in the PARP+/+ mice kidney declined to 28, 26, and 43%, respectively, whereas it was preserved close to normal levels in PARP−/− mice. The inflammatory cascade was attenuated in PARP−/− mice as evidenced by decreased neutrophil infiltration and attenuated expression of inflammatory molecules such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1. At 12 h postinjury, no apoptotic cell death was observed in PARP−/− mice kidneys. However, by 24 h postinjury, a comparable number of cells underwent apoptosis in both PARP−/− and PARP+/+ mice kidneys. Thus activation of PARP post-IRI contributes to cell death most likely by ATP depletion and augmentation of the inflammatory cascade in the mouse model. PARP ablation preserved ATP levels, renal functions, and attenuated inflammatory response in the setting of IRI in the mouse model. PARP inhibition may have clinical efficacy in preventing the progression of acute renal failure complications.

Previous studies have reported beneficial effects of NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) inhibition on beta-cell survival in vitro and in vivo. The mechanisms by which NOX4 inhibition protects insulin producing cells are, however, not known. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of a pharmacological NOX4 inhibitor (GLX7013114) on human islet and EndoC-βH1 cell mitochondrial function, and to correlate such effects with survival in islets of different size, activity, and glucose-stimulated insulin release responsiveness. We found that maximal oxygen consumption rates, but not the rates of acidification and proton leak, were increased in islets after acute NOX4 inhibition. In EndoC-βH1 cells, NOX4 inhibition increased the mitochondrial membrane potential, as estimated by JC-1 fluorescence; mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, as estimated by MitoSOX fluorescence; and the ATP/ADP ratio, as assessed by a bioluminescent assay. Moreover, the insulin release from EndoC-βH1 cells at a high glucose concentration increased with NOX4 inhibition. These findings were paralleled by NOX4 inhibition-induced protection against human islet cell death when challenged with high glucose and sodium palmitate. The NOX4 inhibitor protected equally well islets of different size, activity, and glucose responsiveness. We conclude that pharmacological alleviation of NOX4-induced inhibition of beta-cell mitochondria leads to increased, and not decreased, mitochondrial ROS, and this was associated with protection against cell death occurring in different types of heterogeneous islets. Thus, NOX4 inhibition or modulation may be a therapeutic strategy in type 2 diabetes that targets all types of islets.
