BACKGROUND: An accumulating amount of evidence has suggested that there is a contributive role of sympathetic nervous hyperactivity in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). α1-AR promotes an increase in calcium levels in podocytes and adjusts podocyte contraction. Changes in TRPC6 expression and function can directly affect the podocyte cytoskeleton, which is a key component in podocyte injury. This study proposed to clarify the correlation between α1-AR activation-induced signal cascade reaction and TRPC6 in human podocytes.
METHODS: Human podocytes were incubated with the calcium probe Fluo-3/AM. Next, the effects of the α1-AR agonists or antagonists and nonselective TRPC6 blockers on intracellular calcium were observed under laser confocal microscopy. FITC-phalloidin was employed to stain podocytes, and the change of F-actin under the α1-AR activation condition was observed.
RESULTS: The α1-AR agonist PE (phenylephrine hydrochloride) induced an increase in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in human podocytes. Moreover, the downregulation of TRPC6 by siRNA or TRPC blocker could attenuate the PE-induced [Ca2+]i elevation in a phospholipase C (PLC)-dependent pattern. When podocytes were stimulated to the PE, their F-actin fiber cytoskeletal structure was lost. PE subsequently increased the expression of RhoA, and the TRPC6-dependent Ca2+ influx was involved in this process. The abnormal activation of RhoA could result in disturbance of the podocyte skeleton structure, thus leading to podocyte injury.
CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that TRPC6 is involved in α1-AR activation-induced calcium signal changes in podocytes. Meanwhile, the α1-AR agonists can destroy the cell's cytoskeletal structure, which is mediated by TRPC6 via the RhoA/ROCK pathway.
