102 32696822 MiR-770-5p inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis and E2F3 promoted proliferation and suppressed apoptosis in HG-treated podocytes.
103 32696822 E2F3 is a target gene of miR-770-5p and it partially abolished the effect of miR-770-5p in HG-triggered proliferation and apoptosis of podocytes.
104 32696822 MiR-770-5p deficiency blocked HG-induced APAF1/caspase9 pathway via targeting E2F3 in podocytes.
105 32696822 We firstly confirmed that E2F3 was a target of miR-770-5p in podocytes.
106 32696822 These findings suggested that miR-770-5p expedited podocyte injury by targeting E2F3, and the miR-770-5p/E2F3 axis might represent a pathological mechanism of DN progression.

170 31371698 Silencing of long noncoding RNA PVT1 inhibits podocyte damage and apoptosis in diabetic nephropathy by upregulating FOXA1.
171 31371698 Herein, we aimed to study the roles of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) and histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in DN.
172 31371698 The roles of PVT1 and enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) were validated via loss-of-function and gain-of-function in vitro experiments to identify the interactions among PVT1, EZH2, and forkhead box A1 (FOXA1).
173 31371698 The podocyte damage and apoptosis due to PVT1 and FOXA1 were verified with in vivo experiments.
174 31371698 A large number of CpG (C-phosphate-G) island sites were predicted at the FOXA1 promoter region, where PVT1 recruited EZH2 to promote the recruitment of H3K27me3.
175 31371698 The silencing of PVT1 or the overexpression of FOXA1 relieved the damage and inhibited the apoptosis of podocytes in DN, as was evidenced by the upregulated expression of synaptopodin and podocin, higher expression of Bcl-2, and lower expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3.
176 31371698 The key findings of this study collectively indicate that the suppression of lncRNA PVT1 exerts inhibitory effects on podocyte damage and apoptosis via FOXA1 in DN, which is of clinical significance.
177 31179339 Effect of Baoshenfang Formula on Podocyte Injury via Inhibiting the NOX-4/ROS/p38 Pathway in Diabetic Nephropathy.
178 31179339 This study evaluated the effects of BSF on podocyte injury in vivo and in vitro and explored the possible involvement of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase-4/reactive oxygen species- (NOX-4/ROS-) activated p38 pathway.
179 31179339 BSF treatment increased the nephrin expression, alleviated oxidative cellular damage, and inhibited Bcl-2 family-associated podocyte apoptosis in high-glucose cultured podocytes and/or in diabetic rats.
180 31179339 High glucose-induced upexpression of NOX-4 was normalized by BSF, and NOX-4 siRNAs inhibited the phosphorylation of p38, suggesting that the activated p38 pathway is at least partially mediated by NOX-4.
181 31179339 In conclusion, BSF can decrease proteinuria and protect podocytes from injury in DN, in part through inhibiting the NOX-4/ROS/p38 pathway.
182 31025335 miR-15b-5p ameliorated high glucose-induced podocyte injury through repressing apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory responses by targeting Sema3A.
183 31025335 Meanwhile, forced expression of miR-15b-5p apparently restrained HG-triggered apoptosis of podocytes, concomitant with downregulated in the proapoptotic protein markers Bax and cleavage caspase-3, and upregulated the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2.
184 31025335 Simultaneously, introduction of miR-15b-5p repressed HG-induced oxidative stress damage in HG-treated podocytes, as evidenced by reduced MDA content, NOX4 expression, and enhanced activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase.
185 31025335 Moreover, enforced expression of miR-15b-5p remarkably restrained the HG-stimulated inflammatory response, as reflected by attenuated the level of the cytokines IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6.
186 31025335 More important, we also identified Sema3A as a direct target of miR-15b-5p.
187 31025335 Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blot subsequently confirmed that miR-15b-5p negatively modulated the level of Sema3A.
188 31025335 Mechanically, overexpression of Sema3A impeded the beneficial effects of miR-15b-5p on HG-mediated apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response.
189 31025335 Altogether, these findings manifested that miR-15b-5p protectively antagonized HG-triggered podocyte damage through relieving HG-induced apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory process in podocytes by targeting Sema3A, suggesting that miR-15b-5p might be a new therapeutic agent to improve management of DN.
190 30389788 We also observed that the microRNAs miR-34c and miR-196a/b down-regulated the expression of the apoptosis regulators BCL2-associated X, apoptosis regulator (Bax), and BCL2 antagonist/killer 1 (Bak) in podocytes.
191 30389788 Competitive binding between LOC105374325 and miR-34c or miR-196a/b increased Bax and Bak levels and caused podocyte apoptosis.
192 30389788 LOC105374325 overexpression decreased miR-34c and miR-196a/b levels, increased Bax and Bak levels, and induced proteinuria and focal segmental lesions in mice.
193 30389788 In conclusion, activation of the P38/C/EBPβ pathway stimulates the expression of LOC105374325, which, in turn, increases Bax and Bak levels and causes apoptosis by competitively binding to miR-34c and miR-196a/b in the podocytes of individuals with FSGS.

198 29476712 Gene expression studies highlighted the differential expression of several genes involved in prostaglandin metabolism (AKR1C18), heme and iron metabolism (HbA-A2, HMOX1, SCL25A37), electrolyte balance (SLC4A1, AQP6), immunity (RSAD2, C3, UBE2O), fatty acid metabolism (FASN), hypoxia hall-mark genes (GCK, SDC3, VEGFA, ETS1, CP, BCL2), as well as genes implicated in other forms of kidney disease (PODXL, ELMO1, FRMD3, MYH9, APOA1).
199 29449563 In cultured HGECs and podocytes, cinacalcet decreased oxidative stress and apoptosis and increased autophagy that were attributed to the increment of intracellular Ca2+ concentration and the phosphorylation of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinaseβ (CaMKKβ)-Liver kinase B1 (LKB1)-AMPK and their downstream signals including the phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and increases in superoxide dismutases and B cell leukemia/lymphoma 2/BCL-2-associated X protein expression.
200 29449563 Subsequent activation of AMPK was followed by the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α and phospho-Ser1177eNOS-nitric oxide, resulting in a decrease in apoptosis and oxidative stress as well as an increase in autophagy.Our results suggest that cinacalcet increases intracellular Ca2+ followed by an activation of CaMKKβ-LKB1-AMPK signaling in GECs and podocytes in the kidney, which provides a novel therapeutic means for type 2 diabetic nephropathy by modulation of apoptosis and autophagy.
201 29312514 TRPC6 plays a critical role in proteinuric kidney diseases, and TRPC3 is involved in tubulointerstitial damage and renal fibrosis in obstructed kidneys.
202 29312514 In addition, we observed decreased expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl2 and increased expression of pro-apoptotic cleaved caspase 3 in WT diabetic mice, but such changes were not significant in TRPC3/6/7-/- diabetic mice.
203 29312514 Western blot and immunohistochemistry revealed that TGFβ1, p-Smad2/3, and fibronectin were upregulated in WT diabetic mice; however, expression of these signaling molecules was not changed in TRPC3/6/7-/- diabetic mice.

205 29245956 Cellular expressions of inflammatory (CD14/CD68) and glomerulus/tubular-injury (WT-1/KIM-1) biomarkers displayed an identical pattern, whereas glomerulus/podocyte-component (dystroglycan/nephrin/ZO-1/fibronectin/p-cadherin) biomarkers showed an opposite kidney-injury score among the six groups (all P<0.0001).
206 29115406 Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 5 (TRAF5) has been demonstrated to mediate the activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
207 29115406 The NF-κB inhibitor, caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), mimicked the protective effects of BBR, as evidenced by the increased expression of nephrin and podocin, and the decreased the expression of caspase-3 and the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2.
208 28972886 PF increased expression of synaptopodin and decreased expression of desmin, demonstrating a protective effect in podocyte injury.
209 28972886 Further studies revealed that PF upregulated Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and restrained Angiopointin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) in kidney tissue.
210 28972886 In vitro study, PF reduced Caspase3 and Bax and increased Bcl-2, indicating that the apoptosis rate of podocytes induced by ADR was reduced by PF.
211 28849106 Advanced glycation end products induce the apoptosis of and inflammation in mouse podocytes through CXCL9-mediated JAK2/STAT3 pathway activation.
212 28849106 Based on an in vitro model of mouse podocyte injury, AGEs decreased the proliferation of podocytes and increased the expression of CXCL9 and C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3), and promoted the activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3).
213 28849106 Moreover, the levels of inflammatory factors, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‑α and interleukin (IL)‑6 were also decreased in the podoyctes transfected with siRNA-CXCL9, accompanied by the increased expression of nephrin and podocin, and decreased levels of Bax/Bcl-2 and activated caspase-3.
214 28849106 The knockdown of CXCL9 also led to the inactivation of the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)/STAT3 pathway.
215 28849106 On the whole, and to the best of our knowledge, this study demonstrates for the first time that AGEs exert pro-apoptotic and pro-inflammatory effects in mouse podoyctes through the CXCL9-mediated activation of the JAK2/STAT3 pathway.

227 28429785 In the present study, we examined the interaction between p38 MAPK and GC-A signaling.
228 28429785 The administration of FR167653, p38 MAPK inhibitor, reduced systolic blood pressure (SBP), urinary albumin excretion, segmental sclerosis, podocyte injury, and apoptosis.
229 28429785 To further investigate the local action of natriuretic peptide and p38 MAPK in podocytes, we generated podocyte-specific (pod) GC-A conditional KO (cKO) mice.
230 28429785 ALDO pod GC-A cKO mice demonstrated increased urinary albumin excretion with marked mesangial expansion, podocyte injury and apoptosis, but without blood pressure elevation.
231 28429785 Finally, we revealed that atrial natriuretic peptide increased phosphorylation of MAPK phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) concomitant with inhibited phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in response to MAPK kinase 3 activation, thereby resulting in decreased mRNA expression of the apoptosis-related gene, Bax, and Bax/Bcl2 ratio in cultured podocytes.
232 28429785 These results indicate that natriuretic peptide exerts a renoprotective effect via inhibiting phosphorylation of p38 MAPK in podocytes.

257 26197866 AOPP treatment induced overexpression of glucose-regulated protein 78 and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-homologous protein (CHOP) in podocytes, indicating that AOPPs induced ER stress.
258 26197866 Moreover, silencing of the three ER stress sensors, protein kinase-like ER kinase (PERK), activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), and inositol requiring 1 (IRE1), respectively, significantly lowered the apoptotic rate of the cells compared with that of the scramble siRNA-transfected cells.
259 26197866 Lastly, our data suggested that CHOP- and caspase-12-dependent pathways were involved in ER stress-mediated podocyte apoptosis and that Bcl-2 suppression was involved in CHOP-mediated apoptosis.
260 26197866 Collectively, our results indicate for the first time that AOPPs trigger podocyte apoptosis through induction of ER stress, which might be regulated by NADPH oxidase-dependent ROS through RAGE, and that this apoptosis is mediated by three unfolded protein response pathways, the PERK, ATF6, and IRE1 pathways, and the mediators, CHOP and caspase-12.
261 26191142 The direct interaction between miR-34c and the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of Notch1 and Jagged1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay.
262 26191142 Moreover, Notch1 and Jagged1 as putative targets of miR-34c were downregulated by miR-34c overexpression in HG-treated podocytes.
263 26191142 Overexpression of miR-34c inhibited HG-induced Notch signaling pathway activation, as indicated by decreased expression of the Notch intracellular domain (NICD) and downstream genes including Hes1 and Hey1.
264 26191142 Furthermore, miR-34c overexpression increased the expression of the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2, and decreased the expression of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax and cleaved Caspase-3.
265 26191142 Additionally, the phosphorylation of p53 was also downregulated by miR-34c overexpression.
266 26191142 Taken together, our findings suggest that miR-34c overexpression inhibits the Notch signaling pathway by targeting Notch1 and Jaggged1 in HG-treated podocytes, representing a novel and potential therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.

285 24566618 Protection of human podocytes from shiga toxin 2-induced phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and apoptosis by human serum amyloid P component.
286 24566618 Human serum amyloid P component (SAP), a member of the pentraxin family, has been shown to protect against Stx2-induced lethality in mice in vivo, presumably by specific binding to the toxin.
287 24566618 To elucidate the mechanisms underlying podocyte injury in HUS-associated proteinuria, we assessed Stx2-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and apoptosis in immortalized human podocytes and evaluated the impact of SAP on Stx2-induced damage.
288 24566618 Stx2 applied to cultured podocytes was internalized and then activated p38α MAPK and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), important signaling steps in cell differentiation and apoptosis.
289 24566618 Stx2 also activated caspase 3, resulting in an increased level of apoptosis.
290 24566618 Coincubation of podocytes with SAP and Stx2 mitigated the effects of Stx2 and induced upregulation of antiapoptotic Bcl2.

293 23200848 It has been demonstrated that nephrin inactivation plays a critical role in Angiotensin II (AngII)-induced podocyte damage both in in vitro and in vivo, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unclear.
294 23200848 In this study, the role of c-mip on AngII-induced nephrin inactivation and podocyte damage was explored in a mouse podocyte cell line.
295 23200848 In AngII stimulated podocyte, c-mip and Csk expressions increased obviously at protein level, and nephrin phosphorylation decreased while Cbp phosphorylation increased.
296 23200848 AngII-induced Csk increment and nephrin inactivation was remarkably inhibited by siCmip treatment.
297 23200848 AngII stimulation increased the interaction of c-mip and Csk, as well as Csk and Cbp.
298 23200848 Notably, the binding of Csk to active form pY418 decreased while the binding of Csk to inactive form pY530 of Src kinase Fyn increased in AngII-stimulated podocyte.
299 23200848 In addition, AngII stimulation significantly decreased the expression of phosphor-Akt (Ser473) and antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2, whereas increased the expression of apoptotic proteins caspase-3 and BAD, all of which were prevented by siCmip treatment.
300 23200848 Taken together, our results demonstrated that AngII induced nephrin inactivation and podocyte damage by the novel podocyte protein c-mip through Csk-Cbp-Fyn signaling pathway.

342 22614921 Considering that nestin is a substrate of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), we further assessed the expression of Cdk5 in HG-treated podocytes.
343 22614921 The protein activator of Cdk5, p35, was also increased in a time-dependent manner by HG stimulation, and downregulation of Cdk5 by miRNA interference attenuated the nestin reduction in HG-treated podocytes; the HG-induced podocyte apoptosis, the increased cleaved caspase-3 expression and the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio were all effectively attenuated.
