Trimethylamine-N-Oxide Promotes Vascular Calcification Through Activation of NLRP3 (Nucleotide-Binding Domain, Leucine-Rich-Containing Family, Pyrin Domain-Containing-3) Inflammasome and NF-κB (Nuclear Factor κB) Signals
Open accessAbstract
Objectives: Vascular calcification is highly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease. Increased plasma trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbiota-dependent product, concentrations are found in patients undergoing hemodialysis. However, a clear mechanistic link between TMAO and vascular calcification is not yet established. In this study, we investigate whether TMAO participates in the progression of vascular calcification using in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models. Approach and Results: Alizarin red staining revealed that TMAO promoted calcium/phosphate-induced calcification of rat and human vascular smooth muscle cells in a dose-dependent manner, and this was confirmed by calcium content assay. Similarly, TMAO upregulated the expression of bone-related molecules including Runx2 (Runt-related transcription factor 2) and BMP2 (bone morphogenetic protein-2), suggesting that TMAO promoted osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells. In addition, ex vivo study also showed the positive regulatory effect of TMAO on vascular calcification. Furthermore, we found that TMAO accelerated vascular calcification in rats with chronic kidney disease, as indicated by Mico-computed tomography analysis, alizarin red staining and calcium content assay. By contrast, reducing TMAO levels by antibiotics attenuated vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease rats. Interestingly, TMAO activated NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-containing family, pyrin domain-containing-3) inflammasome and NF-κB (nuclear factor κB) signals during vascular calcification. Inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome and NF-κB signals attenuated TMAO-induced vascular smooth muscle cell calcification. Conclusions: This study for the first time demonstrates that TMAO promotes vascular calcification through activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and NF-κB signals, suggesting the potential link between gut microbial metabolism and vascular calcification. Reducing the levels of TMAO could become a potential treatment strategy for vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
