Project description:Preconditioning strategies like caloric restriction (CR) and hypoxic preconditioning (HP) show remarkable protective effects in animal models of acute kidney injury (AKI). Since the underlying molecular effects are still not fully understood we performed an experiment directly comparing CR and HP in a murine model of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of the kidney. 8 to 12-week-old, male C57BL6/J mice were either put to 4 weeks of caloric restriction (70% of normal food intake) or placed in a hypoxic chamber (8%O2) for 3 consecutive days prior to IRI. Whole kidneys were used for transcriptional analysis (RNAseq) before and after ischemia-reperfusion injury to look for common effects of both modes of preconditioning.

Project description:This study was aimed to investigate the role and underlying mechanism of TRPM2 in cisplatin nephrotoxicity. Cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) model was established in WT and TRPM2-KO mice. The transcriptome profiling of the kidneys of WT and TRPM2-KO mice treated with cisplatin was compared to find differentially expressed gene which may be related to TRPM2 on cisplatin nephrotoxicity.

Project description:Ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI), a complication that frequently occurs in hospital settings, is often associated with hemodynamic compromise, sepsis, cardiac surgery or exposure to nephrotoxicants. AKI is associated with immune cell infiltration into the kidney stroma, which causes acute tubular injury. Here, using a murine renal ischemic-reperfusion injury (IRI) model we show that intercalated cells (ICs) rapidly adopt a pro-inflammatory phenotype post IRI. During the early phase of AKI, we demonstrate that either blocking the pro-inflammatory P2Y14 receptor located on the apical membrane of ICs, or ablation of the gene encoding the P2Y14 receptor in ICs: 1) inhibits IRI-induced chemokine expression increase in ICs; 2) reduces neutrophil and monocyte renal infiltration; 3) reduces the extent of kidney dysfunction; and 4) attenuates proximal tubule (PT) damage. These observations indicate that the P2Y14 receptor participates in the very first inflammatory steps associated with ischemic AKI. In addition, we show that the concentration of the P2Y14 receptor ligand, uridine diphosphate-glucose (UDP-Glc), is higher in urine samples from intensive care unit patients who developed AKI when compared with urine from patients without AKI. In particular, we observed a strong correlation between UDP-Glc concentration and the development of AKI in cardiac surgery patients. Our study identifies the UDP-Glc/P2Y14 receptor axis as a potential target for the prevention and/or attenuation of ischemic-AKI.

Project description:Renal hypoxia is widespread in acute kidney injury (AKI) of various aetiologies. Hypoxia adaptation, conferred through the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), appears to be insufficient. Here we show that HIF activation in renal tubules through Pax8-rtTA-based inducible knockout of von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL-KO) protects from rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI. In this model, histological observations indicate that injury mainly affects proximal convoluted tubules, with 5% necrosis at d1 and 40% necrosis at d2. HIF-1alpha up-regulation in distal tubules reflects renal hypoxia. However, lack of HIF in proximal tubules suggests insufficient adaptation by HIF. AKI in VHL-KO mice leads to prominent HIF activation in all nephron segments, as well as to reduced serum creatinine, serum urea, tubular necrosis, and apoptosis marker caspase-3 protein. At d1 after rhabdomyolysis, when tubular injury is potentially reversible, HIF mediated protection in AKI is associated with activated glycolysis, cellular glucose uptake and utilization, autophagy, vasodilation, and proton removal as demonstrated by qPCR, pathway enrichment analysis and immunohistochemistry. Together, our data provide evidence for a HIF-orchestrated multi-level shift towards glycolysis as a major mechanism for protection against acute tubular injury. All experiments were carried out in transgenic mice in which selective renal tubular VHL knockout (VHL-KO) was inducible by doxycycline (Reference: Mathia S, Paliege A, Koesters R, Peters H, Neumayer HH, Bachmann S, Rosenberger C. Action of hypoxia-inducible factor in liver and kidney from mice with Pax8-rtTA-based deletion of von Hippel-Lindau protein. Acta Physiol (Oxf). 2013; 207(3):565-76.). Four groups of animals were used: 1) controls: untreated mice; 2) VHL-KO: injected with doxycycline (0.1 mg per 10 g body weight SC), 4 days prior to sacrifice; 3) AKI: rhabdomyolysis; 4) VHL-KO/AKI: doxycycline plus rhabdomyolysis. To induce AKI, 50% glycerol (0.05 ml per 10 g body weight) was injected IM into the left hind limb under isoflurane narcosis. Drinking water was withdrawn between 20 h prior and 24 h after glycerol injection.

Project description:Since septic AKI is a common type of AKI in ICU, we need to understand the differences in renal RNA expression in septic kidney injury. Therefore, we used lipopolysaccharide intraperitoneal injection to construct a mouse model of septic renal injury, and verified that the model was successful, then RNA sequencing was performed. To know the difference of RNA expression through the comparison of kidney sequencing between the normal group and the septic AKI group.

Project description:Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is a severe and life-threatening condi-tion with high morbidity and mortality among emergency patients, and it poses a sig-nificant risk of chronic renal failure. Clinical treatments for SA-AKI remain reactive and non-specific, lacking effective diagnostic biomarkers or treatment targets. In this study, we established an SA-AKI mouse model using LPS and performed proteomics and metabolomics analyses. A variety of bioinformatic analyses, including Gene Set En-richment Analysis (GSEA), Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), protein and protein interactions (PPI), and MetaboAnalyst analysis, were conducted to investigate the key molecules of SA-AKI. Proteomics and metabolomics analyses re-vealed that sepsis led to impaired renal mitochondrial function and metabolic disorders. Immune-related pathways were found to be activated in kidneys upon septic infection. The catabolic products of polyamines accumulated in septic kidneys. Overall, our study provides a more comprehensive understanding of SA-AKI and identifies potential pathways for this condition.

Project description:PTBA has been published to increase renal tubular cell proliferation, increased survival, and increased renal functional recovery in fish and various models of murine models of acute kidney injury. Immunohistological analyses suggested increased cell proliferation is accompanied by increased epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in the RTECs. In order to elucidate pathways responsible for the increased repair response after compound treatment, larval zebrafish were given AKI and treated with PTBA analogue, UPHD25 or DMSO. Results suggests that epithelial-related genes were downregulated while mesenchymal-related genes were upregulated with injury and compound treatment. Results further validate our immunohistological finding that our compound increase post-AKI repair by increasing EMT in renal tubular cells.
