Resveratrol (RSV), a natural polyphenol, has been proven to have renoprotective effects. In this study, we used a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced rat glomerular mesangial cells (RMCs) model, to elucidate the renoprotective effect of RSV on sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1)/sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2 (S1P2)/NF-κB activation and the expression of downstream inflammatory mediators, such as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and fibronectin (FN) protein expression in RMCs.Methods: Cell proliferation was tested by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5- diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). The protein levels of FN, ICAM-1, iNOS, SphK1, S1P2 and NF-κB p65 in RMCs were detected by Western blot. The DNA-binding activity of NF-κB was detected by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). SphK1 activity and S1P content were measured by using sphingosine kinase activity assay kit and ELISA assay, respectively.Results: We first found that LPS could stimulate SphK1/S1P axis activation, whereas this occurrence was significantly blocked by RSV pretreatment. RSV obviously repressed LPS-induced upregulated expression of fibronectin (FN), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in RMCs. Moreover, RSV markedly reduced SphK1 activity and its protein expression, and attenuated S1P content in LPS-induced RMCs. Furthermore, RSV could block LPS-induced upregulation of NF-κB p65 and DNA-binding activity of NF-κB. And this phenomenon was notably attenuated by SphK1 inhibitor and S1P2 inhibitor.Conclusion: RSV inhibited LPS-induced RMCs’ proliferation and inflammation and FN expression by SphK1/S1P2/NF-κB pathway, suggesting that RSV may be independent of its hypoglycemic effect on preventing or delaying the development of mesangial cell fibrosis.Keywords: diabetic nephropathy, resveratrol, lipopolysaccharide, sphingosine kinase 1, sphingosine 1-phosphate, NF-κB |
