PI3Kδ Mediates Fibrosis by Patient-Derived Vitreous
The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a fundamental process in developing fibrotic diseases, including forming epiretinal membranes (ERMs). ERMs can result in irreversible vision loss. Previous research has demonstrated that vitreous (VIT) derived from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy can stimulate angiogenesis through the Axl/PI3K/Akt pathway. Building upon this knowledge, we aimed to explore the influence of VIT from patients with macular membranes in ARPE-19 cells. Our findings reveal that patient-derived VIT from individuals with macular membranes promotes EMT and phosphoinositide 3-kinase-delta (PI3Kδ) expression in ARPE-19 cells. To elucidate the function of PI3Kδ in the ERM, we conducted experiments involving the knockout of p110δ, a key subunit of PI3Kδ, and observed that its absence hinders EMT induced by patient-derived VIT. Moreover, p110δ depletion reduces cell proliferation and migration in ARPE-19 cells. Remarkably, these effects were further corroborated by applying the p110δ inhibitor idelalisib, which blocks fibrosis in the laser-induced fibrosis model. Collectively, our results propose that p110δ plays a critical role in the progression of ERMs. Consequently, targeting p110δ emerges as a promising therapeutic approach for mitigating fibrosis. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms involved in ERM formation and highlight the potential for p110δ-directed antifibrotic therapy in retinal diseases.
