Acyl-CoA thioesterase 13 (ACOT13) attenuates the progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease in vitro via triggering mitochondrial-related cell apoptosis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common cause of end-stage kidney disease. It has been shown that Acyl-CoA thioesterase 13 (ACOT13) level was reduced in renal cystic tissues from ADPKD patients. However, the role of ACOT13 in ADPKD remains largely elusive.

Methods

The data in the GSE7869 dataset were acquired from the GEO database to determine ACOT13 level between normal renal cortical tissues and renal cystic tissues. Next, the potential functions of ACOT13 were explored by gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). Furthermore, ACOT13 level in ADPKD cells (WT9-12) was verified by RT-qPCR. The effects of ACOT13 on WT9-12 cell growth were evaluated using the EdU staining and flow cytometry assays.
