Common molecular mechanism of aristolochic acid I inducing hepatorenal toxicity
Objactive, To explore the common mechanism of aristolochic acid I (AAⅠ) inducing liver and kidney injury in mice based on transcriptomics.,Methods,2,Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the normal group (,n,=6) and the model group (,n,=9). The mice in the model group AAⅠ was injected intraperitoneally with a dose of 20 mg/kg once a day for 5 d and then executed. The contents of SCr, BUN, ALT and AST in serum were detected, and histological and pathological characteristics of liver and kidney were analyzed in two groups of mice. RNA was extracted from three liver and kidney tissues of the normal group and the model group respectively, and sequenced by high-throughput transcriptome. Differential genes were defined as differentially expressed genes (Fold Change) ≥2.0 and ,P,<,0.01. The differential genes in normal liver, kidney and model liver and kidney were screened respectively, and the intersection of differential genes in the liver and kidney was analyzed by gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)database. The differential genes with the most related genes were identified by protein interaction network analysis and verified by qRT-PCR.,Results,2,Compared with the normal group, the activities of ALT and AST in serum and the contents of SCr and BUN in the model group were significantly increased. The structural disorders of hepatic lobule, focal necrosis and mild inflammation in the portal area were observed in the liver tissue, and glomerular edema, glomerular pyknosis and renal tubular epithelial cell necrosis and exfoliation were observed in the renal tissue. Transcriptome sequencing showed that there were 298 common differential genes in the liver and kidney. GO and KEGG analysis of common differential genes in the liver and kidney showed that GO classification related to small molecular catabolism, organic acid catabolism, carboxylic acid catabolism, oxidoreductase activity, antioxidant activity and glutathione peroxidase activity was significantly enriched, and carbon metabolism, insulin resistance, complement and coagulation cascade, NF-κb, JAK-STAT and PPAR signaling pathways were significantly enriched in KEGG pathway. Protein interaction network analysis and qRT-PCR verification showed that there were significant differences in the expressions of ,Stat3, Cdh1, Myc, Ugt2b38, and ,Egr1,, which were consistent with the results of transcriptome.,Conclusions,2,Transcriptome reveals that the common mechanism of hepatorenal toxicity induced by AAⅠ is mainly related to complement and coagulation cascade, redox process, NF-κb, JAK-STAT signal pathway and so on. The hepatorenal toxicity mechanism of AAⅠ should be further explored based on ,Stat3, Cdh1, Myc, and other genes.
