Abstract
Our study aimed to apply a proteomic approach to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of oxalate on rat renal tubular epithelial cells. NRK-52E cells were treated with or without oxalate and subjected to quantitative proteomics to identify key proteins and key pathological changes under high oxalate stimulation. A total of 268 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between oxalate-treated and control groups were identified, with 132 up-regulated and 136 down-regulated proteins. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that DEPs are associated with oxidative stress, apoptosis, ferroptosis, pro-inflammatory cytokines, vitamin D, and biomineralization. SPP1, MFGE8, ANKS1A, and NAP1L1 were up-regulated in the oxalate-treated cells and the hyperoxaluric stone-forming rats, while SUB1, RNPS1, and DGLUCY were down-regulated in both cases. This altered proteomic landscape sheds light on the pathological processes involved in oxalate-induced renal damage and identifies potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets to mitigate the effects of hyperoxaluria and reduce the risk of CaOx stone formation.
期刊介绍:
Biology (ISSN 2079-7737) is an international, peer-reviewed, quick-refereeing open access journal of Biological Science published by MDPI online. It publishes reviews, research papers and communications in all areas of biology and at the interface of related disciplines. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
