NAT10-ac4C axis promote renal fibrosis
RNA modification play vital roles in renal fibrosis. However, whether ac4C modification functions in renal fibrogenesis remains unknown. Here, we found that NAT10-ac4C axis plays pro—fibrotic role in kidney. ac4C RIP sequencing demonstrated NAT10-ac4C axis functions via regulating multiple master genes of exosome secretion in tubular epithelial cells. In summary, targeting NAT10-ac4C axis is a promising strategy for renal fibrosis. Overall design: Wild-type HK-2 cells and NAT10 KD HK-2 cells were used for ac4C-RIP-seq.
