In vitro study on effect of bardoxolone methyl on cisplatin-induced cellular senescence in human proximal tubular cells.

ABSTRACT: Bardoxolone methyl [methyl-2-cyano-3, 12-dioxooleana-1, 9(11)dien-28-oate (CDDO-Me)], an activator of the nuclear factor erythroid-derived 2-related factor2 pathway, is a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of kidney diseases. However, its effect against cellular senescence remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether CDDO-Me protects cells against cisplatin-induced cellular senescence using an in vitro model. The human renal proximal tubular epithelial cell line HK-2 was treated with cisplatin for 6 h, followed by treatment with or without CDDO-Me (0.1 or 0.2 μmol/L). Senescence markers were analyzed using western blotting and real-time PCR. Apoptosis was evaluated through TUNEL staining. Cisplatin induced changes in the levels of markers specific for proliferati
