Expression of XBP1s in peritoneal mesothelial cells is critical for inflammation-induced peritoneal fibrosis
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS(2019)
摘要
Intraperitoneal inflammation is the most important determinant of peritoneal fibrosis in patients with long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). Spliced x-box binding protein-1 (XBP1s), a major proximal effector of unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling, plays an indispensable role in inflammation. Our study demonstrated that the inflammatory factor interleukin-1β (IL-1β) dose- and time-dependently induced XBP1s upregulation and interleukin-6 (IL-6) secretion, as well as the expression of the fibrotic marker fibronectin. However, these effects were prevented by the IRE1 endonuclease inhibitor STF083010 since it time-dependently reduced IL-1β-induced Xbp1 mRNA splicing, XBP1s protein expression, inflammatory factor IL-6 secretion and the expression of the fibrotic marker fibronectin in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs). The overexpression and knockdown of XBP1s in HPMCs had a similar effect on fibronectin expression. In a rat model of peritoneal inflammation, STF083010 significantly attenuated chlorhexidine digluconate-induced XBP1s and α-smooth muscle actin expression, as well as fibrotic tissue proliferation, in the peritoneum. Our results suggest that XBP1s is a strong pathogenic factor that mediates inflammation-induced peritoneal fibrosis in peritoneal dialysis.
