ABSTRACT
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), a primary microvascular complication arising from diabetes, may result in end-stage renal disease. Epigenetic regulation of endothelial mesenchymal transition (EndMT) has been recently reported to exert function in metabolic memory and DKD. Here, we investigated the mechanism which Sirt7 modulated EndMT in human glomerular endothelial cells (HGECs) in the occurrence of metabolic memory in DKD. Lower levels of SDC1 and Sirt7 were noted in the glomeruli of both DKD patients and diabetes-induced renal injury rats, as well as in human glomerular endothelial cells (HGECs) with high blood sugar. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) was sustained despite the normalization of glycaemic control. We also found that Sirt7 overexpression associated with glucose normalization promoted the SDC1 expression and reversed EndMT in HGECs. Furthermore, the sh-Sirt7-mediated EndMT could be reversed by SDC1 overexpression. The ChIP assay revealed enrichment of Sirt7 and H3K18ac in the SDC1 promoter region. Furthermore, hypermethylated in cancer 1 (HIC1) was found to be associated with Sirt7. Overexpression of HIC1 with normoglycaemia reversed high glucose-mediated EndMT in HGECs. The knockdown of HIC1-mediated EndMT was reversed by SDC1 upregulation. In addition, the enrichment of HIC1 and Sirt7 was observed in the same promoter region of SDC1. The overexpressed Sirt7 reversed EndMT and improved renal function in insulin-treated diabetic models. This study demonstrated that the hyperglycaemia-mediated interaction between Sirt7 and HIC1 exerts a role in the metabolic memory in DKD by inactivating SDC1 transcription and mediating EndMT despite glucose normalization in HGECs.
