ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Lupus nephritis (LN) is a type of autoimmune disease that impacts the kidneys. Exosomes are valuable for in-depth studies of the pathogenesis of LN. This study aimed to explore miR-181d-5p expression levels in M0 macrophage-derived exosomes and their role in human renal mesangial cells (HRMC) pyroptosis through binding to BCL-2.METHODS:
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected from patients with lupus nephritis (LN) and healthy subjects. Monocytes isolated from these samples were induced into M0 macrophages using recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF). In a parallel process, THP-1 cells were induced into M0 macrophages using Phorbol Myristate Acetate (PMA). LPS- and ATP-stimulated HRMC were used to construct a cell pyroptosis model. We then introduced different miR-181d-5p mimic fragments into the M0 macrophages derived from the THP-1 cells. Subsequently, exosomes from these macrophages were co-cultured with HRMC. To evaluate the impact on HRMC, we conducted proliferation and apoptosis assessments using CellCountingKit-8assay and flow cytometry. The effect of exosomal miR-181d-5p on HRMC pyroptosis was assessed using western blot. The miR-181d-5p and BCL-2 targeting relationship was detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. IL-6, IL-1ß, and TNF-α levels in cell supernatants were detected using ELISA kits.RESULTS:
In this study, we observed an increase in miR-181d-5p levels within exosomes secreted from M0 macrophages obtained by induction of monocytes from LN patients. It was found that miR-181d-5p can target binding to BCL-2. Exosomes with elevated levels of miR-181d-5p contributed to a significant increase in miR-181d-5p within HRMC, facilitating its proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis. Furthermore, exosomes expressing high levels of miR-181d-5p were observed to promote an inflammatory response and pyroptosis in HRMC. Notably, these effects were reversed when the levels of miR-181d-5p in the exosomes were reduced.CONCLUSION:
Inhibition of miR-181d-5p, derived from M0 macrophage exosomes, effectively suppresses inflammation and pyroptosis in HRMC. This discovery indicates that miR-181d-5p holds the potential as a valuable target in the development of treatments for Lupus Nephritis (LN).Palavras-chave
