BACKGROUND Ets-1 proto-oncogene exhibits multiple activities in the transcriptional regulation of numerous genes including metalloproteinase (MMP)-1, -3 and -9. MMPs play an important role in the remodelling of extracellular matrix in various renal diseases. However, the role of the Ets-1-MMP axis in advanced renal diseases is uncertain. In the present study, we investigated whether Ets-1 is involved in interleukin (IL)-1-mediated expression of MMPs in tubulointerstitial cells. METHODS Rat renal fibroblasts (NRK-49F) and tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) were cultured and allocated to an IL-1beta-treated group (10 ng/ml), a platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-treated group (25 ng/ml) and a control group. Protein and mRNA were extracted after 1, 6, 12 and 24 h of treatment. Parallel flasks were treated with 2 muM ets-1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) before exposure to IL-1beta. The expression of Ets-1 protein was evaluated by western blotting. The activities of MMPs were evaluated by gelatin zymography. The expression of ets-1 and/or MMP-9 mRNA was evaluated semiquantitatively by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RESULTS In NRK-49F cells, Ets-1 protein increased significantly by 6.8-fold at 6 h, and MMP-9 activity increased significantly by 9.9-fold at 12 h in the IL-1beta-treated group compared with controls. MMP-2 and -3 activities also increased significantly in the IL-1beta-treated group. In NRK-52E cells, Ets-1 protein was 3.1 times higher at 1 h, and the latent form of MMP-9 activity increased 3.4-fold at 6 h in the IL-1beta group compared with controls. However, MMP-2 or MMP-3 activities were not markedly altered by IL-1beta treatment compared with controls. When the cells were treated with ets-1 antisense ODNs before IL-1beta treatment, Ets-1 protein expression decreased at least 50%, and MMP-9 activity was clearly inhibited in both cells. We also confirmed that MMP-9 activity was upregulated on days 21 and 28 in renal cortex of rat crescentic glomerulonephritis. CONCLUSIONS The Ets-1 transcriptional factor may participate in IL-1beta-mediated MMP-9 expression in tubulointerstitial cells.

D007684 Kidney Tubules Long convoluted tubules in the nephrons. They collect filtrate from blood passing through the KIDNEY GLOMERULUS and process this filtrate into URINE. Each renal tubule consists of a BOWMAN CAPSULE; PROXIMAL KIDNEY TUBULE; LOOP OF HENLE; DISTAL KIDNEY TUBULE; and KIDNEY COLLECTING DUCT leading to the central cavity of the kidney (KIDNEY PELVIS) that connects to the URETER.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
