Resumen

The posttranslational histone modifications that epige-netically affect gene transcription extend beyond conventionally studied methylation and acetylation patterns. By examining the means by which podocytes influence the glomerular endothelial phenotype, we identified a role for phosphorylation of histone H3 on serine residue 10 (phospho-histone H3Ser10) in mediating endothelial activation in diabetes. Culture media conditioned by podocytes exposed to high glucose caused glomerular endothelial vascular cell adhesion protein 1 (VCAM-1) upregulation and was enriched for the chemokine CCL2. A neutralizing anti-CCL2 antibody prevented VCAM-1 upregulation in cultured glomerular endothelial cells, and knockout of the CCL2 receptor CCR2 diminished glomerular VCAM-1 upregulation in diabetic mice. CCL2/CCR2 signaling induced glomerular endothelial VCAM-1 upregulation through a pathway regulated by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinases 1/2 (MSK1/2), and phosphorylation of H3Ser10, whereas MSK1/2 inhibition decreased H3Ser10 phosphorylation at the VCAM1 promoter. Finally, increased phospho-histone H3Ser10 levels were observed in the kidneys of diabetic endothelial nitric oxide synthase knockout mice and in the glomeruli of humans with diabetic kidney disease. These findings demonstrate the influence that histone protein phosphorylation may have on gene activation in diabetic kidney disease. Histone protein phosphorylation should be borne in mind when considering epigenetic targets amenable to therapeutic manipulation in diabetes.
