Podocyte injury induced by sublytic complement attack is the main feature of membranous nephropathy (MN). This study aimed at investigating the impact of sublytic complement attack-related autophagy on podocyte injury in vitro. Here, we show that sublytic complement attack enhances MPC5 podocyte autophagy in vitro. Inhibition of autophagy by treatment with 3-methyladenine (3-MA) significantly increased sublytic complement attack-induced changes in the injury-related morphology, stress fibre, and podocyte apoptosis, but decreased the survival and adhesion of MPC5 podocytes. In contrast, promotion of autophagy by treatment with rapamycin mitigated sublytic complement attack-induced changes in the injury-related morphology, stress fibre, and podocyte apoptosis, but increased the survival and adhesion of MPC5 podocytes. These data suggest that autophagy may protect podocytes from sublytic complement attack-induced injury in vitro.
