Hyperoxia Increases Kidney Injury During Renal Ischemia and Reperfusion in Mice.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Renal ischemia and reperfusion (IR) contribute to perioperative acute kidney injury, and oxygen is a key regulator of this process. We hypothesized that oxygen administration during surgery and renal IR would impact postoperative kidney function and injury in mice.

Methods

Mice were anesthetized, intubated, and mechanically ventilated with a fraction of inspired oxygen (F io2 ) 0.10 (hypoxia), 0.21 (normoxia), 0.60 (moderate hyperoxia), or 1.00 (severe hyperoxia) during 67 minutes of renal IR or sham IR surgery. Additional mice were treated before IR or sham IR surgery with 50 mg/kg tempol, a superoxide scavenger. At 24 hours, mice were sacrificed, and blood and kidney collected. We assessed and compared kidney function and injury across groups by measuring blood
