Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) has been shown to contribute to
organ fibrogenesis, and we have reported that the anti-EndMT effect of
N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (AcSDKP) is associated with restoring
expression of diabetes-suppressed fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR), the
key anti-EndMT molecule. FGFR1 is the key inhibitor of EndMT via the suppression
of the transforming growth factor ? (TGF?) signaling pathway, and
mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP4K4) inhibits
integrin ?1, a key factor in activating TGF? signaling and EndMT. Here, we showed
that the close proximity between AcSDKP and FGFR1 was essential for the
suppression of TGF?/smad signaling and EndMT associated with MAP4K4
phosphorylation (P-MAP4K4) in endothelial cells. In cultured human dermal
microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs), the anti-EndMT and anti-TGF?/smad
effects of AcSDKP were lost following treatment with a neutralizing FGFR1
antibody (N-FGFR1) or transfection of FRS2 siRNA. The physical interaction
between FGFR1 and P-MAP4K4 in HMVECs was confirmed by proximity ligation analysis
and an immunoprecipitation assay. AcSDKP induced P-MAP4K4 in HMVECs, which was
significantly inhibited by treatment with either N-FGFR1 or FRS2 siRNA.
Furthermore, MAP4K4 knockdown using specific siRNAs induced smad3 phosphorylation
and EndMT in HMVECs, which was not suppressed by AcSDKP. Streptozotocin-induced
diabetic CD-1 mice exhibited suppression of both FGFR1 and P-MAP4K4 expression
levels associated with the induction of TGF?/smad3 signaling and EndMT in their
hearts and kidneys; those were restored by AcSDKP treatment. These data
demonstrate that the AcSDKP-FGFR1-MAP4K4 axis has an important role in combating
EndMT-associated fibrotic disorders.
