ABSTRACT
We previously reported that rosmarinic acid (RA) ameliorated renal fibrosis in a unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) murine model of chronic kidney disease. This study aimed to determine whether RA attenuates indoxyl sulfate (IS)-induced renal fibrosis by regulating the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome/IL-1ß/Smad circuit. We discovered the NLRP3 inflammasome was activated in the IS treatment group and downregulated in the RA-treated group in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, the downstream effectors of the NLRP3 inflammasome, cleaved-caspase-1 and cleaved-IL-1ß showed similar trends in different groups. Moreover, RA administration significantly decreased the ROS levels of reactive oxygen species in IS-treated cells. Our data showed that RA treatment significantly inhibited Smad-2/3 phosphorylation. Notably, the effects of RA on NLRP3 inflammasome/IL-1ß/Smad and fibrosis signaling were reversed by the siRNA-mediated knockdown of NLRP3 or caspase-1 in NRK-52E cells. In vivo, we demonstrated that expression levels of NLRP3, c-caspase-1, c-IL-1ß, collagen I, fibronectin and α-SMA, and TGF- ß 1 were downregulated after treatment of UUO mice with RA or RA + MCC950. Our findings suggested RA and MCC950 synergistically inhibited UUO-induced NLRP3 signaling activation, revealing their renoprotective properties and the potential for combinatory treatment of renal fibrosis and chronic kidney inflammation.
