    Abstract:
    HIF-1 activation is protective in acute kidney injury (AKI), but its underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Stress-induced tRNA derived small RNAs play an emerging role in cellular processes. This study investigated the role of HIF-1 associated tiRNA-Lys-CTT-003 (tiR-Lys) in an AKI mouse model. Our sequencing results showed that ischemia can promote the production of renal tiR-Lys by activating HIF-1α. FG-4592, a HIF-1 inducer, can also upregulate the expression of tiR-Lys in renal tubular cells. Both overexpression of tiR-Lys and FG-4592 pre-treatment could improve mitochondrial damage and lipid peroxidation with alleviated renal function and morphological damage in cisplatin-induced AKI mice. While the anti-ferroptosis effect of FG-4592 were largely eliminated by tiR-Lys inhibitor. Notably, tiR-Lys directly alleviated cell death and MDA accumulation induced by the ferroptosis inducer Erastin, accompanied with restored expression of GPX4. RNA-Pulldown and RIP-qPCR results revealed that tiR-Lys can interact with the RNA-binding protein GRSF1.tiR-lys overexpression can preserve protein expression of GRSF1 decreased by cisplatin. Inhibiting Grsf1 via shRNA eliminated the upregulation of GPX4 by tiR-Lys. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that HIF-1α-induced tiR-Lys is protective in cisplatin-induced AKI, primarily by upregulating the level of GPX4 through interaction with GRSF1, thereby inhibiting ferroptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells.
