The cyclopentenone prostaglandin 15-deoxy-
12,14-PGJ2 (15d-PGJ2) has been shown to display protective effects against renal injury or inflammation. In cultured mesangial cells (MC), 15d-PGJ2 inhibits the expression of proinflammatory genes and modulates cell proliferation. Therefore, cyclopentenone prostaglandins (cyPG) have been envisaged as a promise in the treatment of renal disease. The effects of 15d-PGJ2 may be dependent on or independent from its role as a peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor agonist. It was shown recently that an important determinant for the peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptorindependent effects of 15d-PGJ2 is the capacity to modify proteins covalently and alter their function. However, a limited number of protein targets have been identified to date. Herein is shown that a biotinylated derivative of 15d-PGJ2 recapitulates the effects of 15d-PGJ2 on the stress response and inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase levels and forms stable adducts with proteins in intact MC. Biotinylated 15d-PGJ2 was then used to identify proteins that potentially are involved in cyPG biologic effects. Extracts from biotinylated 15d-PGJ2treated MC were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis, and the spots of interest were analyzed by mass spectrometry. Identified targets include proteins that are regulated by oxidative stress, such as heat-shock protein 90 and nucleoside diphosphate kinase, as well as proteins that are involved in cytoskeletal organization, such as actin, tubulin, vimentin, and tropomyosin. Biotinylated 15d-PGJ2 binding to several targets was confirmed by avidin pull-down. Consistent with these findings, 15d-PGJ2 induced early reorganization of vimentin and tubulin in MC. The cyclopentenone moiety and the presence of cysteine were important for vimentin rearrangement. These studies may contribute to the understanding of the mechanism of action and therapeutic potential of cyPG.
