BACKGROUND: High glucose and angiotensin-II (Ang-II) levels are the known important mediators of diabetic nephropathy. However, the effects of these mediators on matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and on tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) in proximal tubule cells have yet to be fully examined within the context of early stage diabetic nephropathy.
METHODS: In this study, we attempted to characterize changes in MMP-2 and TIMP-2 in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. To further examine the molecular mechanisms involved, we evaluated the effects of high glucose (30 mM) or Ang-II on MMP-2, TIMP-2 and collagen synthesis in proximal tubule cells, and investigated whether MMP-2 and TIMP-2 are regulated via the TGF-beta1 pathway.
RESULTS: In streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, TIMP-2 mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher than in controls. Urinary protein excretion also showed a significant positive correlation with glomerular and tubular TIMP-2 protein expressions, and a negative correlation with MMP-2 expression. In cultured cells, both high glucose and Ang-II induced significant increases in TGF-beta1, TIMP-2, and in collagen synthesis, and significant decreases in MMP-2 gene expression and activity, and thus disrupted the balance between MMP-2 and TIMP-2. Moreover, treatment with a selective angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist significantly inhibited Ang-II mediated changes in TGF-beta1, MMP-2, TIMP-2, and in collagen production, suggesting the role of the AT1 receptor. The addition of exogenous TGF-beta1 produced an effect similar to those of high glucose and Ang-II. Furthermore, the inhibition of TGF-beta1 protein prevented Ang-II-induced MMP-2 and TIMP-2 alterations, suggesting the involvement of a TGF-beta1 pathway.
CONCLUSIONS: High glucose or Ang-II treatment induce alterations in MMP-2 and TIMP-2 balance, which favour TIMP-2 over-activity. Moreover, Ang-II-mediated changes in the productions of MMP-2 and TIMP-2 occur via AT1 receptors and a TGF-beta1-dependent mechanism. These results suggest that an imbalance between the MMP-2 and TIMP-2, caused primarily by an increase in TIMP-2 activity, contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.
