- W2763606722 abstract "In patients with chronic kidney and end-stage renal diseases, the major risk factor for progression of arterial calcification is the presence of existing (baseline) calcification. Here, we tested whether calcification of arteries is extended from calcified vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) to adjacent normal cells by matrix vesicle–induced alteration of cell signaling. Matrix vesicles isolated from VSMC of rats with chronic kidney disease were co-cultured with VSMCs from normal littermates. Endocytosis of vesicles by recipient cells was confirmed by confocal microscopy. The addition of cellular matrix vesicles with characteristics of exosomes and low fetuin-A content enhanced the calcification of recipient VSMC. Further, only cellular-derived matrix vesicles induced an increase in intracellular calcium ion concentration, NOX1 (NADPH oxidase) and the anti-oxidant superoxide dismutase-2 in recipient normal VSMC. The increase in intracellular calcium ion concentration was due to release from endoplasmic reticulum and partially attributed to the activation of both NOX1 and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK1 and Erk1/2) signaling, since inhibiting both pathways blocked the increase in intracellular calcium ion in recipient VSMC. In contrast, matrix vesicles isolated from the media had no effect on the intracellular calcium ion concentration or MEK1 signaling, and did not induce calcification. However, media matrix vesicles did increase Erk1/2, although not to the level of cellular matrix vesicles, and NOX1 expression. Blockade of NOX activity further inhibited the cellular matrix vesicle–induced accelerated calcification of recipient VSMC, suggesting a potential therapeutic role of such inhibition. Thus, addition of cellular-derived matrix vesicles from calcifying VSMC can accelerate calcification by inducing cell signaling changes and phenotypic alteration of recipient VSMC.

Pink R.C. Carter D.R. Routes and mechanisms of extracellular vesicle uptake.J Extracell Vesicles. 2014; 3Crossref PubMed Scopus (1483) Google Scholar). Given the pathologic appearance of vesicles in areas of vascular calcification in vivo and the role in calcification in vitro, we hypothesized that the transmission of vesicles from CKD cells to normal cells would facilitate calcification of the recipient cells and serve as a model of the extension or propagation of calcification observed in patients who have CKD. Given the parallel pathophysiology of both physiologic and pathologic calcification, we use the term matrix vesicles (MVs). We compared 4 sources of MVs: cellular-derived MVs (from CKD VSMC incubated with either high-level phosphorus [calcifying] or normal-level phosphorus [control]) or media-derived MVs from calcifying or control CKD VSMC. These MVs were added to recipient normal rat VSMC as a co-culture and incubated with calcification media (high phosphorus) for 7 days. The results (Figure 1) revealed that both cellular sources of MVs from CKD VSMC (whether they were derived from donor VSMC incubated in normal-level or high-level phosphorus) induced calcification of the recipient VSMC incubated in high-phosphorus media. In contrast, MVs isolated from the media of cultured VSMC had no effect on calcification of recipient VSMC. These results suggest that the source of MVs, rather than the phosphorus conditions of the VSMC from which the MVs are derived, is what affects calcification. Figure 2a demonstrates that the MVs isolated from both sources of cellular VSMC contained annexin II, V, and VI, with higher expression in VSMCs that were incubated with additional phosphorus (calcifying). In contrast, the MVs isolated from the media had a lower level of annexins, and no differences were found whether they were from cells incubated in high-phosphorus media or not (Figure 2a and b). As we and others have found previously,3Chen N.X. O'Neill K.D. Chen X. Moe S.M.

But again, whether the originating CKD VSMC cells were incubated with or without phosphorus made little difference (Figure 2a and b). Both cellular and media MVs from calcifying (high-phosphorous) conditions contain the exosomal tetraspanins CD63, CD81, and CD9, but cellular MVs are enriched with CD63, whereas media MVs are enriched with CD81 and CD9 (Figure 2a and b). These findings are consistent with those of Lotvall et al.,23Lotvall J. Hill A.F. Hochberg F. et al.Minimal experimental requirements for definition of extracellular vesicles and their functions: a position statement from the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles.J Extracell Vesicles. 2014; 3: 26913Crossref PubMed Scopus (1701) Google Scholar who reported that although various types of extracellular vesicles contain many common exosome-enriched markers, such as tetraspanins, the relative proportions of these markers seem to vary in the different types. Despite these differences, examination by electron microscopy (Figure 2c) showed that both cellular and media MVs are membrane-bound vesicles of approximately 100 nm in diameter, consistent with the size of exosomes as described in the literature.24Thery C.

MVs isolated from the same 4 sources as in Figure 1 were analyzed for content of annexin II(36 kDa), annexin V (36 kDa), annexin VI (47-51 kDa), fetuin-A (59 kDa), CD63 (core protein, MV 26 kDa), CD81 (22–26 kDA), and CD9 (24 kDa) by Western blot (a) with quantification of band intensity normalized by Ponceau S (b). MVs isolated from cells had increased expression of annexins and CD63, but neglible fetuin-A compared to that from MVs isolated from media. Isolation from cells in high-phosphorus (calcifying) media in general increased expression. In contrast, in the MVs isolated from the media, there was high fetuin-A content, high levels of CD81 and CD9, and no differences when isolated from VSMC with and without calcifying (high-phosphorus) media. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that both cellular (c, left) and media MV (c, right) show uniform size of 100 mm–diameter, membrane-bound vesicles.

The results revealed that MVs added to recipient VSMC were endocytosed by the VSMC (Figure 3a; red) and co-localized with Alexa 647–labeled dextran (Figure 3b; blue) but not transferrin (Figure 3c, green) after 24 hours. This finding indicates that once they are endocytosed, MVs become located in lysosome (Figure 3d and 3e, purple). Additional studies revealed that MVs derived from media are similarly endocytosed, and MVs from VSMC incubated in normal- versus high-phosphorus media do not differ (data not shown). Thus, the endocytosis of the MVs by recipient cells is similar and does not depend on MV content. To determine if endocytosed MVs induced cell-signaling changes in the recipient VSMC, we examined MV-mediated alterations of intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in recipient VSMC. The addition of cellular MVs (regardless of whether they were sourced from calcifying [high-phosphorus] or control [normal-phosphorus] CKD VSMC) to recipient VSMC increased the [Ca2+]i by 60 minutes, with a continued increase over the 4 hours tested (Figure 4a). In contrast, the addition of media-derived MVs had no effects on [Ca2+]i (Figure 4b). We therefore continued the study using only cellular-derived MVs from calcifying CKD VSMC. To confirm the results, VSMCs were labeled with calcium fluorescence dye Fluo-4 and MV-induced calcium transients in VSMCs examined using spinning-disk microscopy. The results revealed that cellular MVs increased calcium fluorescence intensity (Supplemental Figure S1), confirming our time-course experiments. The MV-induced increase in [Ca2+]i in recipient VSMC was partially mediated by inositol 1,4,5 triphosphate (IP3)–induced [Ca2+]i release, as treatment with 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) reduced the MV-induced increase in [Ca2+]i (indicating release of calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum), but using verapamil to block the external entry of calcium into the L-type calcium channel had no effect (Figure 4b). To determine the role of MVs on MAPK signaling in VSMC, cellular or media MVs were isolated from calcifying CKD VSMC. First, cellular MVs were incubated with normal recipient VSMC at various time points, and the activation of MAPK was assessed using a PathScan MAP Kinase Multi-Target Sandwich ELISA kit (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA). The activity of phospho-Erk1/2 and phosphoMEK1 was found to be increased at 30 minutes and remained similarly increased at 2 hours and 4 hours in VSMC (30-minute time point is shown in Figure 5a). However, MVs had no significant effect on activation of phosphor-p38 MAPK and phosphor-stress-activated protein kinase/Jun-amino-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK). To compare the role of cellular versus media MVs on the activation of MAPK in recipient VSMC, a Western blot analysis was used, and results confirmed cellular MV–induced phosphorylation of Erk1/2 (Figure 5b) and MEK1 (Figure 5c). In contrast, media MVs had no effect on phosphorylation of MEK1, and they slightly increased phosphorylation of Erk1/2. Further, inhibition of MAPK activity, via preincubation of the normal VSMC with MEK1 and Erk1/2 inhibitor U0126, decreased cellular MV–induced elevation of [Ca2+]i (Figure 5d). The effect of inhibition of MAPK on calcification could not be assessed, due to toxicity to cells undergoing prolonged incubation. The co-culture of cellular CKD MVs with VSMCs decreased the recipient VSMC gene expression of SMA22) and increased expression of angiotensin receptor 1 (AT1R) at day 7 (Figure 6a), but not day 1 or 3. The addition of MVs had no effect on the recipient VSMC expression of myocardin at any time point (Figure 6a). The MVs also increased the expression of bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) in recipient VSMC at day 7, but not day 1 and 3, and had no effect on the expression of RUNX2 or osteocalcin (Figure 6b). These results reveal that the addition of MVs alter some, but not all, of the genes known to be important in calcification after 7 days, but not at earlier time points. Altered intracellular calcium signaling can induce changes in mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, and vice versa. We first examined the expression of NADPH oxidase (NOX) isoforms in cultured VSMC and found that the expression of NOX1 and NOX4 was increased during calcification of CKD VSMC (Supplemental Figure S2). We thus examined the effect of cellular MV on the expression of NOX1 and NOX4 in recipient VSMC after 1, 3, and 7 days. The expression of NOX1 in recipient normal VSMC was increased at all 3 time points (Figure 7a, top), but NOX4 had no effect at any time point (not shown); NOX4 is known to be constitutively active in VSMC.26Clempus R.E. Sorescu D. Dikalova A.E. et al.Nox4 is required for maintenance of the differentiated vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype.Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2007; 27: 42-48Crossref PubMed Scopus (272) Google Scholar However, MV did not increase NOX1 protein levels at any time point (data not shown). We then examined the expression of the antioxidant superoxide dismutase, and found that the addition of cellular MV to VSMC increased the expression of SOD-2 at days 3 and 7, but not day 1 (Figure 7a, bottom). However, no increase was found in expression of SOD-1 in VSMC at any of the 3 time points (data not shown). Assessment of mitochondrial function in cellular MV–VSMC co-culture by western blot analysis, using total oxidative phosphorylation cocktail antibodies revealed no changes in any of the mitochondrial subunits (Supplemental Figure S3). We then examined the expression of NOX1 in VSMC co-cultured with media-derived MV and found increased NOX1, but no change in SOD-2, after 3 days (for NOX1 expression, no MV = 1.35 ± 0.10; media MV = 2.23 ± 0.39 [P < 0.01]); for SOD-2 expression, no MV = 0.85 ± 0.07; media MV = 1.07 ± 0.22 (not significant]). To determine the role of NOX activity in cellular MV–mediated signaling and calcification in recipient VSMCs, cellular MVs were added to normal VSMC in the presence or absence of the specific NOX1 or NOX4 activity inhibitor, GKT137831, and [Ca2+]i and MAPK signaling was determined. Inhibition of NOX activity reduced the cellular MV–induced increase in [Ca2+]i. (Figure 8a ) but had no effect on MAPK signaling (for phosphor-MEK1: MV = 1.37 ± 0.02 AU; MV + GKT137821 = 1.40 ± 0.03 AU). Confirming the importance of NOX activity in calcification, the addition of GKT137831 to co-cultures partially reduced cellular MV–induced calcification of recipient normal VSMC (Figure 8b). Matrix vesicles have a critical role in the initiation of mineral deposition in skeletal tissues. In the current study, we demonstrated endocytosis of cellular-derived MV isolated from CKD VSMC by recipient normal VSMCs, with a rise in [Ca2+]i, an increase in MEK1 and ERK1/2 MAPK signaling, and accelerated calcification. In contrast, MV isolated from the media had no effect on [Ca2+]i or MEK1 signaling, and did not induce calcification; however, media MV did increase ERK1/2, although not to the level that cellular MV did.We further found that inhibition of MEK1/ERK1/2 signaling with the specific inhibitor U0126 reduced cellular MV–induced alteration of [Ca2+]i in recipient VSMC. In contrast, we did not see a change in p38 or JNK signaling. Taken together, these results suggest that MEK1 is the predominant MAPK signaling pathway for both the increased [Ca2+]i and calcification in the cellular MV–VSMC co-cultures.27Briones A.M. Tabet F.

In the present study, we found some changes in gene expression consistent with a switch from a vascular to an osteoblast-like phenotype after the addition of MV to recipient normal VSMC (downregulation of vascular smooth muscle marker sm22α, and upregulation of BMP-2 and AT1R). However, these changes were observed only at 7 days and thus are unlikely to be due to the immediate MEK1/ERK signaling observed within 30 minutes of the addition of MV; for the same reason, they also are unlikely to be the major mechanism by which calcification is enhanced by cellular MV. However, the late differentiation of the VSMC is still likely to be critically important in calcification, and perhaps the addition of MV augments these changes through other mechanisms. Alteration of [Ca2+]i-induced ER stress may also be important in the pathogenesis of vascular calcification. The ER stress markers Grp78 (78-kDa glucose-regulated protein), Grp94 (94-kDa glucose-regulated protein), and CHOP (C/-EBP homologous protein) were found in calcified artery from rats treated with vitamin D, which is known to increase [Ca2+]i and calcification in VSMCs32Duan X.
