CTRP3 attenuates inflammation, oxidative and cell death in cisplatin induced HK-2 cells.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin has been widely studied and found to be a highly effective anti-tumor drug. It has several side effects, including acute kidney injury (AKI). Cisplatin-induced AKI can be primarily attributed to oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. The CTRP3 adipokine is a new adipokine that exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic properties. Despite this, the role of CTRP3 in AKI remain unclear. In cisplatin-induced AKI models, our findings demonstrated that CTRP3 expression was decreased in human proximal tubule epithelial cells (HK-2). In the in vitro experiments, HK-2 cells were first transfected with an overexpression plasmid of CTRP3 (pcDNA-CTRP3) or a small interfering RNA for CTRP3 (si-CTRP3) and induced by cisplatin; and cell oxidative stress, inflamma
