AbstractOur previous studies showed that silent mating-type information regulation 2 homologue-1 (SIRT1, a deacetylase) upregulation could attenuate sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SAKI). Upregulated SIRT1 can deacetylate certain autophagy-related proteins (Beclin1, Atg5, Atg7 and LC3) in vitro. However, it remains unclear whether the beneficial effect of SIRT1 is related to autophagy induction and the underlying mechanism of this effect is also unknown. In the present study, caecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced mice, and an LPS-challenged HK-2 cell line were established to mimic a SAKI animal model and a SAKI cell model, respectively. Our results demonstrated that SIRT1 activation promoted autophagy and attenuated SAKI. SIRT1 deacetylated only Beclin1 but not the other autophagy-related proteins in SAKI. SIRT1-induced autophagy and its protective effect against SAKI were mediated by the deacetylation of Beclin1 at K430 and K437. Moreover, two SIRT1 activators, resveratrol and polydatin, attenuated SAKI in CLP-induced septic mice. Our study was the first to demonstrate the important role of SIRT1-induced Beclin1 deacetylation in autophagy and its protective effect against SAKI. These findings suggest that pharmacologic induction of autophagy via SIRT1-mediated Beclin1 deacetylation may be a promising therapeutic approach for future SAKI treatment.

AbstractDemethylase Tet2 plays a vital role in the immune response. Acute kidney injury (AKI) initiation and maintenance phases are marked by inflammatory responses and leukocyte recruitment in endothelial and tubular cell injury processes. However, the role of Tet2 in AKI is poorly defined. Our study determined the degree of renal tissue damage associated with Tet2 gene expression levels in a cisplatin-induced AKI mice model. Tet2-knockout (KO) mice with cisplatin treatment experienced severe tubular necrosis and dilatation, inflammation, and AKI markers’ expression levels than the wild-type mice. In addition, the administration of Tet2 plasmid protected Tet2-KO mice from cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, but not Tet2-catalytic-dead mutant. Tet2 KO was associated with a change in metabolic pathways like retinol, arachidonic acid, linolenic acid metabolism, and PPAR signaling pathway in the cisplatin-induced mice model. Tet2 expression is also downregulated in other AKI mice models and clinical samples. Thus, our results indicate that Tet2 has a renal protective effect during AKI by regulating metabolic and inflammatory responses through the PPAR signaling pathway.
