    • Abstract:
      Renal fibrosis is the most common pathway in progressive kidney diseases. The unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model is used to induce progressive renal fibrosis. We evaluated the effects of irisin on renal interstitial fibrosis in UUO mice. The GSE121190, GSE36496, GSE42303, and GSE96101 datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. In total, 656 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in normal and UUO mouse renal samples. Periostin and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) were selected to evaluate the effect of irisin on renal fibrosis in UUO mice. In UUO mice, irisin ameliorated renal function, decreased the expression of periostin and MMP-2, and attenuated epithelial-mesenchymal transition and extracellular matrix deposition in renal tissues. In HK-2 cells, irisin treatment markedly attenuated TGF-β1-induced expression of periostin and MMP-2. Irisin treatment also inhibited TGF-β1-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition, extracellular matrix formation, and inflammatory responses. These protective effects of irisin were abolished by the overexpression of periostin and MMP-2. In summary, irisin treatment can improve UUO-induced renal interstitial fibrosis through the TGF-β1/periostin/MMP-2 signaling pathway, suggesting that irisin may be used for the treatment of renal interstitial fibrosis.
