Histone deacetylase 6 inhibition mitigates renal fibrosis by suppressing TGF- and EGFR signaling pathways in obstructive nephropathy
AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY-RENAL PHYSIOLOGY(2020)
摘要
We have recently shown that histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is critically involved in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury. Its role in renal fibrosis, however, remains unclear. In this study, we examined the effect of ricolinostat (ACY-1215), a selective inhibitor of HDAC6, on the development of renal fibrosis in a murine model induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). HDAC6 was highly expressed in the kidney following UUO injury, which was coincident with deposition of collagen fibrils and expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin, libronectin, and collagen type III. Administration of ACY-1215 reduced these fibrotic changes and inhibited UUO-induced expression of transforming growth factor-beta 1 and phosphorylation of Smad3 while increasing expression of Smad7. ACY-1215 treatment also suppressed phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and several signaling molecules associated with renal fibrogenesis, including AKT, STAT3, and NF-kappa B in the injured kidney. Furthermore, ACY-1215 was effective in inhibiting dedifferentiation of renal fibroblasts to myofibroblasts and the fibrotic change of renal tubular epithelial cells in culture. Collectively, these results indicate that HDAC6 inhibition can attenuate development of renal fibrosis by suppression of transforming growth factor-beta 1 and EGFR signaling and suggest that HDAC6 would be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of renal fibrosis.
