High glucose-induced oxidative stress promotes autophagy through mitochondrial damage in rat notochordal cells.

Abstract：

PURPOSE:Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk of intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Reactive oxygen species (ROS), oxidative stressors, play a key role in autophagy of diabetes-associated diseases. Mitochondria are known to be the main source of endogenous ROS in most mammalian cell types. The authors therefore conducted the following study to evaluate the effects of high glucose concentrations on the induction of oxidative stress and autophagy through mitochondrial damage in rat notochordal cells. METHODS:Rat notochordal cells were isolated, cultured, and placed in either 10% fetal bovine serum (normal control) or 10% fetal bovine serum plus two different high glucose concentrations (0.1 M and 0.2 M) (experimental conditions) for one and three days, respectively. We identified and quantified the mitochondrial damage (mitochondrial transmembrane potential) and the generation of ROS and antioxidants (manganese superoxide dismutase [MnSOD] and catalase). We also investigated expressions and activities of autophagy markers (beclin-1, light chain3-I [LC3-I] and LC3-II, autophagy-related gene [Atg] 3, 5, 7, and 12). RESULTS:An enhanced disruption of mitochondrial transmembrane potential, which indicates mitochondrial damage, was identified in rat notochordal cells treated with both high glucose concentrations. Both high glucose concentrations increased production of ROS by rat notochordal cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The two high glucose solutions also enhanced rat notochordal cells' compensatory expressions of MnSOD and catalase in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The proautophagic effects of high glucose concentrations were manifested in the form of enhanced rat notochordal cells' expressions of beclin-1, LC3-II, Atg3, 5, 7, and 12 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The ratio of LC3-II/LC3-I expression was also increased in a dose- and time-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS:The findings from this study demonstrate that high glucose-induced oxidative stress promotes autophagy through mitochondrial damage of rat notochordal cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. These results suggest that preventing the generation of oxidative stress might be a novel therapeutic target by which to prevent or to delay IDD in patients with diabetes mellitus.
