Osteopontin mediating cyclosporine A induced epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition on rat renal tubular epithelial cells

Abstract: Osteopontin (OPN) is highly correlated with cyclosporine A (CsA) nephrotoxicity. As epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of renal tubular epithelial cells plays an important role in CsA nephropathy, we investigated whether OPN mediated EMT of renal tubular epithelial cells upon CsA stimulation. OPN knockdown suppresses CsA induced EMT on NRK52E cells, and it also attenuates downregulation of E-cadherin and upregulation of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and fibronectin (FN) that are induced by CsA. OPN alo… Show more

“…It attracts macrophages and participates in the development of renal fibrosis after kidney injury [14], [33]. Our results are consistent with previous data indicating that osteopontin contributes to chronic CsA-induced nephrotoxicity by recruiting macrophages, triggering epithelial-mesenchymal transition in renal tubular epithelial cells and promoting tubulointerstitial fibrosis [11], [34].…”

“…Besides, OPN in the study by Kashiwagi et al . was shown to have an impact on the expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)‐β1 and the number of macrophages, and interestingly, TGF‐β1 treatment could increase OPN in rat renal epithelial cell line (NRK‐52E) in a dose‐dependent manner . Therefore, it is natural to suppose that the up‐regulation of HOTAIR in RIF might be due to the TGF‐β‐induced production of OPN.…”

“…It is considered that NGAL is involved in favorable regeneration of renal tubules after injury, whereas OPN expressing in incomplete regeneration of renal epithelia participates in renal progressive fibrosis via type 2 EMT. In fact, the addition of OPN to NRK-52E induces EMT [ 81 ]. However, there is a report describing that NGAL may participate in type 3 EMT in carcinoma with metastasis [ 82 , 83 ], an opposite phenomenon to type 2 EMT in renal fibrosis.…”
