Genome-wide analysis of renal gene expression during hyperoxaluria development


ABSTRACT: Previous studies have proposed that production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important contributor to renal injury and inflammation following exposure to oxalate or calcium-oxalate crystals. The present study was conducted to determine, utilizing global transcriptome analyses, if the NADPH oxidase system is activated in kidneys of rats fed a diet leading to hyperoxaluria and crystal deposition. HLP was used to induce hyperoxaluria. Hyperoxaluria will lead to crystallization and up regulation of various NADPH oxidase subunits followed by increased expression of different specific genes. It is our hypothesis that crystallization induces inflammation of the kidneys via the activation of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through NADPH oxidase complex. Apocynin was used to block hyperoxaluria and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the inhibition of NADPH oxidase system as Apocynin inhibits membrane translocation of p47 subunit of NADPH oxidase.
