Background/AimsWe previously reported that indoxyl sulfate (IS) could cause mesangial cell (MC) proliferation via a cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-dependent mechanism. However, the specific prostaglandin contributing to COX-2 effect on IS-induced MC proliferation remained unknown. Thus, the present study was undertaken to examine the role of microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1)-derived Prostaglandin E2 (PGE 2) in IS-induced MC proliferation.MethodsIS was administered to the MCs with or without mPGES-1 siRNA pretreatment to induce the MC proliferation which was determined by cell cycle analysis, DNA synthesis, and the expressions of cyclins. In another experimental setting, PGE 2 was applied to the MCs to examine its direct effect on MC proliferation, as well as the regulation of prostaglandin E receptors (EPs) by qRT-PCR.ResultsWith the administration of IS, mPGES-1 (not mPGES-2 and cytosolic PGES) was significantly upregulated at both protein and mRNA levels in line with a promoted MC proliferation. Interestingly, silencing mPGES-1 reduced cell number in S and G2 phases and blocked the upregulation of cyclin A2 and cyclin D1 in parallel with blunted PGE 2 release after IS treatment, indicating that mPGES-1-derived PGE 2 could contribute to MC proliferation. Furthermore, we confirmed that exogenous PGE 2 could directly trigger the proliferative response in MCs. Lastly, we observed a selective upregulation of EP2 after PGE2 treatment and enhanced phosphorylation of NF-κB following IS administration in MCs, suggesting the potential involvements of EP2 and NF-κB in this pathological process.ConclusionmPGES-1-derived PGE 2 contributed to IS-induced mesangial cell proliferation.
