Abstract

Aims One of the primary pathological features in the early stages of diabetic nephropathy is mesangial cell (MC) hypertro-phy in the glomerulus. Considering the role of E3 ubiquitin ligases in regulating MC hypertrophy, the aim of this study was to identify the functional ubiquitin protein ligase E3 component N-recognin 5 (UBR5) during MC hypertrophy under high glucose conditions.

Methods Human MCs (HMCs) transduced with UBR5 silencing or overexpression vector were treated with high glucose, AKT inhibitor, or glycolysis inhibitor. Cell proliferation, cell cycle, hypertrophy and glycolysis were evaluated in the HMCs after indicated treatment. m6A methylated RNA immunoprecipitation, luciferase reporter assay, and RNA immunoprecipi-tation were performed to determine the regulation of UBR5 by Wilms tumor 1-associating protein (WTAP)/insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) induced m6A modification. Western blot was performed to determine the protein expression levels.

Results UBR5 expression was upregulated in db/db mice and in high glucose-induced HMCs. UBR5 silencing inhibited high glucose-induced HMC cell cycle arrest, cell hypertrophy, and glycolysis. UBR5 facilitated HMC hypertrophy and gly colysis by promoting the phosphorylation levels of AKT. Additionally, the promoting effect of glycolysis on cell hypertrophy were also elucidated. Further investigation into upstream regulators revealed that WTAP promoted m6A modification of UBR5 through the m6A reader IGF2BP1.

Conclusions Our study unveils a novel mechanism involved in high glucose-induced cell hypertrophy, offering new insights into the understanding and treatment of early pathological mechanisms in diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract

Aims To investigate the independent association between long-term glycemic variability, measured as the coefficient of variation (CV) of HbA1c, and the presence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in a cohort of adults with diabetes within a system-atic eye screening program.

Methods This study screened 379 adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Long-term glycemic variability was calculated as the CV of serial HbA1c measurements. DR was assessed via dilated fundus photography. The association between HbA1c CV and DR was analyzed using multivariable logistic regression adjusting for confounders.

Results DR incidence of 12.4%, mostly mild non-proliferative. The median HbA1c CV was 7.0% (53 mmol/mol). In unad-justed bivariate analysis, the incidence of mild DR was higher in the low- glycemic variability group (CV<5%) compared to the high- glycemic variability group. However, the multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that higher HbA1c CV was independently associated with the presence of DR (β=0.643, P=0.042), alongside diabetes duration (P<0.001) and age (P<0.001).

Conclusions In conclusion, in a cohort of individuals with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes and a low incidence of DR, long-term glycemic variability, estimated as HbA1c CV, was independently associated with an increased risk of this complication.
