Aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN) is a kidney injury syndrome caused by aristolochic acids exposure, with unknown mechanisms and therapeutic targets. Our study used label-free quantitative proteomics to delineate renal protein profiles and identify key proteins after exposure to different doses of aristolochic acid I (AAI). Male C57BL/6 mice received AAI (1.25 mg/kg/d, 2.5 mg/kg/d, or 5 mg/kg/d) or vehicle for 5 days. The results showed that AAI induced dose-dependent nephrotoxicity. Differences in renal protein profiles between the control and AAI groups increased with AAI dose. Comparing the control with the low-, medium-, and high-dose AAI groups, we found 58, 210, and 271 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), respectively. Furthermore, protein-protein interaction network analysis identified acyl-CoA synthetase medium-chain family member 3 (Acsm3), cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily E member 1 (Cyp2e1), microsomal glutathione S-transferase 1 (Mgst1), and fetuin B (Fetub) as the key proteins. Proteomics revealed that AAI decreased Acsm3 and Cyp2e1 while increasing Mgst1 and Fetub expression in mice kidneys, which was further confirmed by Western blotting. Collectively, in AAI-induced nephrotoxicity, renal protein profiles were dysregulated and exacerbated with increasing AAI dose. Acsm3, Cyp2e1, Mgst1, and Fetub may be the potential therapeutic targets for AAN.
