Global adiponectin suppress the high expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 induced by high glucose in NRK52E cells / 中华肾脏病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of globular adiponectin on the high expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) induced by high glucose in rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK52E),and its relationship with adiponectin receptors and p38MAPK.Methods NRK52E cells were cultured in vitro and divided into six groupsnormal glucose group (NG,5.6 mmol/L glucose),high glucose group(HG,25 mmol/L glucose),gAd groupl (HG+gAd 2 mg/L),gAd group2 (HG+gAd 5 mg/L),gAd group3 (HG+gAd 10 mg/L),p38MAPK antagonist group(SB,HG+SB203580 10 μmol/L).The protein expression of phosphorylated p38MAPK (p-p38MAPK),total p38MAPK (t-p38MAPK),MCP-1 and AdipoR1/AdipoR2 were examined by western blotting.The mRNA expression of MCP-1 and AdipoR1/AdipoR2 were detected by RT-PCR and real-time PCR respectively.Results Compared with NG group,the mRNA and protein expression of MCP-1 increased significantly in HG group (all P＜ 0.05).The phosphorylation of p38MAPK increased (P＜ 0.05) with no change in t-p38MAPK protein.The addition of gAd or SB203580 inhibited the unregulation of MCP-1 and p-p38MAPK induced by HG.Two kinds of adipoR,adipoR1 and adipoR2,were all detectable in NG group,and mRNA and protein expression of adipoR1 was higher than that of adipoR2 (P＜ 0.01).Compared with NG group,the expression of adipoR decreased in HG group,but the difference had no statistical significance(P ＞ 0.05).Compared to HG group,the mRNA and protein expression of adipoR1 increased in gAd groups (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The gAd can dose-dependently attenuate the overexpression of MCP-1 induced by high glucose,and this protective effect may be mediated by adipoR1 and p38MAPK.
