OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the immunological relationship and the mechanism between tonsillar inflammation and immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN).
SUBJECTS: Tonsillar mononuclear cells (TMCs) were prepared from 13 patients with IgAN and 13 patients with chronic tonsillitis but without renal disease. The human renal tubular epithelial cell (TEC) line, HK-2, was used to test the effects of secretions from the TMCs.
METHODS: Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) was used to induce the inflammatory responses in TMCs. The secretions from TMCs, stimulated with or without PHA, were collected and applied to HK-2 cells. The proliferation, apoptosis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of HK-2 cells were evaluated. The expression of key components during apoptosis and EMT was measured.
RESULTS: The secretions from PHA-stimulated IgAN TMCs significantly inhibited proliferation, promoted apoptosis, and down-regulated Bcl-2 in HK-2 cells (P < 0.05) in time- and concentration-dependent manners. They also modulated the expression of key components during EMT, E-cadherin and α-SMA (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: The secretions from PHA-stimulated IgAN TMCs can cause the inhibition of proliferation, promotion of apoptosis, down-regulation of Bcl-2, and EMT effects in HK-2 TECs, which may reflect the in-vivo remote modulation of functions of renal TECs by tonsillar inflammation.
