Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning confers organ-wide protection against subsequent ischemic stress. A substantial body of evidence underscores the importance of mitochondria adaptation as a critical component of cell protection from ischemia. To identify changes in mitochondria protein expression in response to ischemic preconditioning, we isolated mitochondria from ischemic preconditioned kidneys and sham-treated kidneys as a basis for comparison. The proteomic screen identified highly upregulated proteins, including NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2), and we confirmed the ability of this protein to confer cellular protection from injury in murine S3 proximal tubule cells subjected to hypoxia. To further evaluate the role of IDH2 in cell protection, we performed detailed analysis of the effects of Idh2 gene delivery on kidney susceptibility to ischemia-reperfusion injury. Gene delivery of IDH2 before injury attenuated the injury-induced rise in serum creatinine (P<0.05) observed in controls and increased the mitochondria membrane potential (P<0.05), maximal respiratory capacity (P<0.05), and intracellular ATP levels (P<0.05) above those in controls. This communication shows that gene delivery of Idh2 can confer organ-wide protection against subsequent ischemia-reperfusion injury and mimics ischemic preconditioning.

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) was first observed by Murry et al.1 in 1986. Since the original observation that applying nonlethal doses of ischemia to target organs can confer protection against subsequent injury, it has been thought that a full understanding of this phenomenon would offer an entree to therapy for ischemic injury. After the demonstration by Murry et al.1 of this phenomenon, studies were conducted on different organs, such as heart, brain, liver, and kidney to name a few.1–5 These studies confirmed the work by Murry et al.1 and extended the observations to other organs.
IPC in the kidney was first studied by Zager and Baltes.6 This work laid the foundation for studying IPC in the kidney. Using this foundation, Joo et al.7 showed that IPC consists of two protective windows. These protective windows involve an acute window, which begins immediately after IPC and extends for several hours, and a late window, which begins around 24 hours and lasts up to several weeks after recovery from injury. Acute IPC may be mediated by mechanisms related to ion channels and cell signaling, such as the reperfusion injury salvage kinase and survivor activating factor enhancement signaling pathways.8,9 The late phase involves transcriptional activation and translation of cytoprotective proteins, such as hypoxia-induced transcription factors or heat shock proteins.10 Because mitochondria impairment represents an early step in the pathogenesis of renal injury, IPC may be mediated in part by preserving mitochondria function in response to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) by preserving cellular ATP levels, reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and inhibiting cell death pathways.11
Therefore, we hypothesize that alterations in mitochondria protein content are a cellular adaptation that confers protection observed in the IPC long-term window. To determine alterations in mitochondria protein content during IPC, proteomic analysis was used to identify potential candidates for mediating long-term IPC effects. One candidate protein, isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2), which is upregulated during IPC, is involved in the citric acid cycle and ROS reduction.12 Mutated forms of IDH2 and more frequently, IDH1 have been identified in approximately 80% of low-grade gliomas and secondary gliomas.13,14 IDH2 mutations have also been identified in acute myeloid leukemia, making up greater than one half of the IDH mutations described.15 Analysis of tumor sequencing data in both glioma and acute myeloid leukemia revealed neomorphic mutations in IDH1 within the catalytic site at residue R132 and IDH within the catalytic site at residues R140 and R172.14,16 When these mutations are present, IDH synthesizes the oncometabolite (R)-2-Hydroxygluarate by reducing α-ketoglutarate from isocitrate.15 (R)-2-Hydroxygluarate is associated with hypermethylation of CpG islands throughout the genome17 and affects histone methylation.18 Because these oncogenic mutations are dissimilar to the normal IDH2 cDNA and because our prior work in gene delivery showed gene expression lasting predominantly for 30 days, this candidate protein was selected for further investigation using both in vitro and in vivo models of cellular injury to evaluate whether this protein may mediate protection against IRI.19
Results
Proteomic Analyses of IPC Mitochondria
IPC was induced by subjecting rats to bilateral renal IRI for 30 minutes and recovery for 14 days, resulting in the resolution of serum creatinine back to levels in sham-operated controls. As expected, this maneuver significantly attenuated the elevation in serum creatinine in rats 24 hours after a second ischemic insult (Figure 1A). At this time, kidney histology shows little evidence of injury (Figure 1, B and C). Renal cortical mitochondria were isolated from IPC or sham IPC rats at 14 days and used for a proteomic screen. Table 1 shows the proteins that are significantly altered in IPC rat kidney versus sham IPC rat kidney. Twelve proteins were significantly altered (six increased and six decreased) by the 14-day IPC protocol (Table 1). Of these, IDH2 was chosen for further analysis because of its function in the TCA cycle and as a branch point enzyme for lipid and protein syntheses. To confirm these findings, we repeated the IPC protocol and conducted immune blots for IDH2 on mitochondria isolated from renal cortex, showing an approximate tenfold increase in IDH2 compared with control rats (Figure 1D).

Idh2 Confers Protection against Hypoxia Injury
Initial screening of Idh2 activity used immortalized murine renal proximal tubule S3 cells (MPTCs), which were derived from a large T antigen mouse through direct microscopic dissection and have been used in studies of acute ischemic injury and nephrotoxic kidney injury.20,21 To confirm that exogenous Idh2 targets mitochondria, in vitro transfection was performed using an N-terminal myc-tagged Idh2. Multiphoton imaging revealed that myc-tagged Idh2 clearly localized in mitochondria stained with Mitotracker red (Figure 1, E–I). The Manders coefficient for colocalization was 0.8, indicating a high degree of mitochondria colocalization.22 S3 cells transfected with plasmids bearing Idh2 were resistant to necrosis after hypoxia compared with mock transfected cells (9%±7.8% versus 42%±27.6%; P<0.05) (Figure 1J). Cells transfected with Idh2 maintained higher intracellular ATP/AMP ratios even in response to hypoxia (Figure 2A) and have elevated mitochondria membrane potential (Figure 2B). These increases in membrane potential are also linked with improved cell health and survival (P<0.05) (Figures 1H and 2B).
Figure 3A depicts the effects of Idh2 transfection on mitochondria respiration in S3 cells. Baseline oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of MPTCs was 29.4±6.8 pmol/min per cell, whereas transfection with Idh2 or myc-tagged Idh2 significantly increased the OCR to 41±2 and 39.6±4.7 pmol/min per cell, respectively (Figure 3B). Transfection with either Idh2 or myc-tagged Idh2 resulted in a statistically significant increase in OCR compared with control or mock transfected cells (Figure 3B). Maximal uncoupled respiratory capacity after addition of carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone was also enhanced by Idh2 or myc-Idh2 transfection (Figure 3C). Complex 2 OCR, evaluated after the addition of Rotenone and Antimycin A, was also significantly increased by either myc-Idh2 or Idh2 transfection (Figure 3D). Finally, in vitro analysis was to test if Idh2 over expression affected reserve or spare respiratory capacity (SRC). This is measured as the difference between maximal respiration and baseline respiration. Control S3 cell SRC was 23.5±8.4 pmol/min per cell. In cells transfected with Idh2, SRC was 31.9±11 pmol/min per cell, indicating that the addition of Idh2 increased MPTC SRC. However, the SRC in myc-Idh2 transfected cells was 26.9±7.8 pmol/min per cell, a value that was not significantly different from mock or control samples. This likely reflects a partial inhibitory effect of the myc tag on IDH2 integration in the oxidative phosphorylation pathway.
Gene Delivered IDH2 Targets to Mitochondria
Retrograde hydrodynamic injection of plasmid cDNA through the renal vein has been shown to be an effective means of facilitating exogenous gene expression in the rat kidney.19 To evaluate the effects of Idh2 upregulation in the kidney, N-terminal myc-tagged Idh2 or saline was delivered by hydrodynamic injection. After 7 days of recovery, isolated renal cortical mitochondria contained approximately threefold higher levels of IDH2 versus animals injected with saline alone as indicated by immune blots (Figure 4A). These data indicate that hydrodynamic delivery of Idh2 results in sustained expression of protein in proximal tubule mitochondria to levels comparable with those observed during resistance to IRI after IPC.
IDH2 Transfection In Vivo and IPC Lead to Changes in Mitochondria Polarization
Because IDH2 was found to localize to mitochondria, we analyzed changes in mitochondria function in response to IRI. Mitochondria polarization was evaluated with TMRM and intravital imaging. After 2 weeks of IPC (i.e., 14 days after recovery from 35 minutes of IRI), the TMRM signal from rat kidney tubules was significantly elevated relative to that observed in sham IPC control rats (Figure 4, B and E). Similarly, rats subjected to Idh2 delivery have significantly increased TMRM signal relative to saline-injected control animals (Figure 4, C, D, and F). To evaluate whether Idh2 delivery in vivo influenced mitochondria respiration, renal cortical mitochondria were isolated and analyzed using oximetry. Respiration was measured in response to isocitrate, pyruvate, and succinate to evaluate complexes 1 and 2 activity. Mitochondria isolated from Idh2-treated animals showed increased state 2 and state 3 respiration relative to saline-injected animals, regardless of the substrate used (Figure 4G).
IDH2 Increases Oxidative Phosphorylation and Prevents Tissue Injury
To determine if Idh2 delivery mimics IPC, we subjected rats to either IPC or Idh2 delivery and allowed them to recover. As expected, IPC-treated rats were resistant to IRI as indicated by reduced serum creatinine 24 hours after IRI relative to sham IPC. Interestingly, Idh2 resulted in a similar reduction in serum creatinine (Figure 5A) and improved tissue histology in response to IRI (Figure 5, B–E). Analysis of mitochondria 60 minutes after reperfusion showed that IDH2 preserved respiratory capacity relative to vehicle controls (Figure 5, F and G). Finally, IPC and Idh2 delivery both increase ATP levels versus sham and saline-injected control animals, indicating that IDH2 enhances ATP stores, thereby protecting against IRI (Figure 5H).
Discussion
AKI remains a significant cause of comorbidity in the hospital setting, with supportive care as the sole treatment available. Therefore, measures that prevent AKI are likely to garner rapid clinical acceptance particularly, because AKI is associated with increased mortality and risk of progression to ESRD.10,23–26 Among the potential clinical interventions available to prevent AKI, IPC has been shown to activate cellular adaptations that confer resistance to subsequent ischemic stress.8,27,28 However, clinical trials of IPC have failed to show consistent protection against AKI, and the variance between tested protocols make it impossible to identify the root cause for success or failure.
Mitochondria are important regulators of normal physiology. Recently, loss of genes, such as APOL-1, has pointed to the importance of mitochondria in regulating disease, specifically kidney diseases.29,30 AKI targets renal mitochondria and initiates bioenergetic changes that alter the relative contribution of oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis to cellular ATP stores.11,31 Substantial bodies of evidence point to adaptive changes in mitochondria protein composition mediated by PGC-1α and TFAM after IPC.32–35 Changes in cellular localization of GSK3-β and hexokinase fundamentally alter the propensity of the mitochondria transition pore to open, thereby inducing a cell death cascade.36,37 Additional changes in Ψm and state 1/3 mitochondria respiration have also been reported in response to IPC.38–40 Taken together, interventions designed to alter mitochondria physiology in a manner similar to IPC are also likely to confer cellular resistance to ischemic injury in a reliable way.
In this communication, we use a proteomic analysis of mitochondria isolated from the renal cortex of ischemic preconditioned Sprague–Dawley rats using a timed renal pedicle crossclamp to induce the preconditioned state. Mitochondria were isolated 2 weeks after IPC using an isolation method that maintains mitochondria functionality rather than biochemical purity. Many of the proteins in the proteome of preconditioned mitochondria were readily identified as belonging to oxidation phosphorylation, fatty acid metabolism, and Reiske protein pathways (Table 1). The cell signaling systems responsible for these changes in mitochondria composition are still unclear. Preliminary work by our laboratory failed to identify any changes in endogenous metabolites observed by Hato et al.41 in response to endotoxin, and we were not able to observe an increase in ROS that may account for altered mitochondria protein gene transcription.42 Our findings suggest that more work is needed to identify the adaptive signaling in response to IPC.
To test whether a protein identified in the proteomic screen was of potential use for conferring resistance to ischemia, we used a cell culture hypoxia injury system to assess a candidate’s efficacy in conferring protection against hypoxia. The MPTC line used in this study has been grown under conditions, whereby virtually all of their intracellular ATP is produced by oxidative phosphorylation.43 Because the cells require 38% oxygen concentration to maintain growth, these cells are susceptible to hypoxic injury.44 These qualities make the cell line uniquely appropriate for use in hypoxia injury studies to screen candidate genes to determine if they confer resistance to hypoxic injury. In our assays for cell injury, using an assay that predominantly measures cell necrosis, S3 cells transfected with either N-terminal myc-tagged Idh2 or Idh2 were resistant to hypoxic injury. In vitro transfection models indicate that IDH2 localized to the mitochondria (Figure 1, C–G). IDH2 serves both reductive and oxidative functions ranging from glutathione reduction to NAD(P)H generation depending on cellular requirements.12,45–49 To study these changes, we analyzed membrane potential and respiration in both in vivo and in vitro models. Our data indicate that mitochondria membrane potential was increased in Idh2 transfected cells compared with controls. Changes in mitochondria membrane potential are linked with changes in reduction potential (i.e., electron movement), leading to increases in oxidative phosphorylation. Our data indicate that IPC or retrograde injection of Idh2 protects mitochondria from IRI and leads to increased reduction potential compared with our control animals (Figure 4, B–F), and these increases are linked to cell survival and avoidance of cell death pathways.50 It is our hypothesis as well as that of many others that, after injury, mitochondria revert to a Warburg state manifest by a shift to glycolysis.51–53 This allows accumulation of glycolytic metabolites, lipids, and nucleic acids that will aid in cellular repair.51–53 However, increases in mitochondria membrane potential in response to preconditioning or Idh2 retrograde injection indicate that this glycolytic shift may not occur. Idh2 acts to increase metabolic output in preparation for injury. Strikingly, our analysis of mitochondria respiration found increased states 1 and 2 respiratory capacity in Idh2 transfected cells. Our results indicate that gene transfection leads to increases in baseline, maximal, and complex 2 respiration (Figure 3), indicative of increased oxidative phosphorylation. Interestingly, Idh2 transfection also increased SRC, which has been linked to cell survival of cells prone to oxidative stress.54–57 Idh2 transfection increases SRC, indicating that, before injury onset, cells are primed to handle oxidative stress and allocate the additional energy to aid in cellular recovery. The increase in SRC is linked with decreases in serum creatinine, and reductions in hypoxia induced cell death. Data from cell culture studies suggest a fundamental shift in mitochondria physiology, in which additional Idh2 expression resulting from exogenous gene delivery increases metabolic flux through the mitochondria aided by an increase in membrane potential. To further confirm these findings, we next examined whether exogenous gene delivery in vivo would recapitulate cytoprotection in vitro.
We recently reported successful gene transfer to kidneys using hydrodynamic gene delivery.19 An important finding in this work suggested that it is possible to use a mammalian expression vector to alter renal physiology on an organ-wide scale.58 Our data in this communication support this conjecture. Immune blots confirm our proteomic findings that IDH2 levels increase in IPC, suggesting a possible role in prevention of AKI. Similarly, retrograde injections of Idh2 lead to equivalent increases in IDH2 and protection against ischemia (Figure 1B). This is seen in reductions of serum creatinine and improved tissue morphology in our animal model of kidney injury (Figures 1G and 5A). We also found that both IPC and Idh2 delivery increase states 1–3 respiratory capacity. This result stands in contrast to that of the report by Han et al.,59 in which IPC decreased IDH2 protein levels; however, our immune blots were performed on protein lysates made from kidney cortex, whereas Han et al.59 used whole-kidney lysates. Their work concluded that downregulation of IDH2 expression resulted in increased injury after AKI.59 Taken together, Idh2 delivery mimics IPC, particularly in the ability to confer protection against subsequent ischemic injury. Because it has been difficult to reproduce the protective effect of IPC in the clinical setting, it is possible that timely gene delivery offers an alternative method to prevent ischemic injury. We believe that IDH2 gene delivery will mimic IPC, because it has been previously reported that its loss is implicated with promoting ischemic disease.59
