Abstract: | Objectives: Indoxyl sulfate (IS), a uremic toxin, has been shown to promote the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of human proximal tubular cells and to accelerate the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Despite the well-known protective role of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 [1,25(OH)(2) D-3] in EMT, the effect of 1,25(OH)(2) D-3 on IS-induced EMT in human proximal tubular epithelial cells and the underlying mechanism remain unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether IS (0-1 mM) dose-dependently inhibited the protein expression of E-cadherin and increased the protein expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin, N-cadherin, and fibronectin. Methods: This study investigated the molecular mechanism by which 1,25(OH)(2) D-3 attenuates IS-induced EMT. HK-2 human renal tubular epithelial cells was used as the study model, and the MTT assay, Western Blotting, siRNA knockdown technique were used to explore the effects of 1,25(OH)(2) D-3 on EMT in the presence of IS. Results: Pretreatment with 1,25(OH)(2) D-3 inhibited the IS-induced EMT-associated protein expression in HK-2 cells. IS induced the phosphorylation of Akt (5473) and beta-catenin (S552) and subsequently increased the nuclear accumulation of P-catenin. Pretreatment with 1,25(OH)(2) D-3 and LY294002 (phosphoinositide 3-kinase [PIK3] inhibitor) significantly inhibited the IS-induced phosphorylation of Akt and beta-catenin, nuclear p-catenin accumulation, and EMT-associated protein expression. Conclusions: Results from the present study revealed that the anti-EMT effect of 1,25(OH)(2) D-3 is likely through inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/beta-catenin pathway, which leads to down-regulation of IS-driven EMT-associated protein expression in HK-2 human renal tubular epithelial cells.
