To address the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying chronic kidney disease with comorbid cardiac dysfunction, we investigated renal and cardiac, functional and structural damage when myocardial infarction (MI) was applied in the setting of kidney injury (induced by 5/6 nephrectomy—STNx). STNx or Sham surgery was induced in male Sprague–Dawley rats with MI or Sham surgery performed 4 weeks later. Rats were maintained for a further 8 weeks. Rats (n = 36) were randomized into four groups: Sham+Sham, Sham+MI, STNx+Sham and STNx+MI. Increased renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis (P < 0.01) and kidney injury molecule‐1 expression (P < 0.01) was observed in STNx+MI compared to STNx+Sham animals, while there were no further reductions in renal function. Heart weight was increased in STNx+MI compared to STNx+Sham or Sham+MI animals (P < 0.05), despite no difference in blood pressure. STNx+MI rats demonstrated greater cardiomyocyte cross‐sectional area and increased cardiac interstitial fibrosis compared to either STNx+Sham (P < 0.01) or Sham+MI (P < 0.01) animals which was accompanied by an increase in diastolic dysfunction. These changes were associated with increases in ANP, cTGF and collagen I gene expression and phospho‐p38 MAPK and phospho‐p44/42 MAPK protein expression in the left ventricle. Addition of MI accelerated STNx‐induced structural damage but failed to significantly exacerbate renal dysfunction. These findings highlight the bidirectional response in this model known to occur in cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) and provide a useful model for examining potential therapies for CRS.  相似文献

Renal microvascular (MV) damage and loss contribute to the progression of renal injury in renovascular disease (RVD). Whether a targeted intervention in renal microcirculation could reverse renal damage is unknown. We hypothesized that intrarenal vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy will reverse renal dysfunction and decrease renal injury in experimental RVD. Unilateral renal artery stenosis (RAS) was induced in 14 pigs, as a surrogate of chronic RVD. Six weeks later, renal blood flow (RBF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were quantified in vivo in the stenotic kidney using multidetector computed tomography (CT). Then, intrarenal rhVEGF-165 or vehicle was randomly administered into the stenotic kidneys (n = 7/group), they were observed for 4 additional wk, in vivo studies were repeated, and then renal MV density was quantified by 3D micro-CT, and expression of angiogenic factors and fibrosis was determined. RBF and GFR, MV density, and renal expression of VEGF and downstream mediators such as p-ERK 1/2, Akt, and eNOS were significantly reduced after 6 and at 10 wk of untreated RAS compared with normal controls. Remarkably, administration of VEGF at 6 wk normalized RBF (from 393.6 ± 50.3 to 607.0 ± 45.33 ml/min, P < 0.05 vs. RAS) and GFR (from 43.4 ± 3.4 to 66.6 ± 10.3 ml/min, P < 0.05 vs. RAS) at 10 wk, accompanied by increased angiogenic signaling, augmented renal MV density, and attenuated renal scarring. This study shows promising therapeutic effects of a targeted renal intervention, using an established clinically relevant large-animal model of chronic RAS. It also implies that disruption of renal MV integrity and function plays a pivotal role in the progression of renal injury in the stenotic kidney. Furthermore, it shows a high level of plasticity of renal microvessels to a single-dose VEGF-targeted intervention after established renal injury, supporting promising renoprotective effects of a novel potential therapeutic intervention to treat chronic RVD.  相似文献

BackgroundThe prognosis of patients after acute kidney injury (AKI) is poor and treatment is limited. AKI is mainly caused by renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). During the extension phase of IRI, endothelial damage may participate in ischemia and inflammation. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) which is mostly secreted by endothelial cells is an important actor of IRI, particularly through its strong vasoconstrictive properties. We aimed to analyze the specific role of ET-1 from the endothelial cells in AKI.MethodsWe used mice lacking ET-1 in the vascular endothelial cells (VEETKO). We induced IRI in VEETKO mice and wild type controls by clamping both kidneys for 30 min. Sham operated mice were used as controls. Mice were sacrificed one day after IRI in order to investigate the extension phase of IRI. Kidney function was assessed based on serum creatinine concentration. Levels of expression of ET-1, its receptor ETA, protein kinase C, eNOS, E-Cadherin and inflammation markers were evaluated by real time PCR or western blot. Tubular injury was scored on periodic acid Schiff stained kidney preparations. Lumen and wall area of small intrarenal arteries were measured on kidney slices stained for alpha smooth muscle cell actin. Oxidative stress, macrophage infiltration and cell proliferation was evaluated on slices stained for 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine, F4/80 and PCNA, respectively.ResultsIRI induced kidney failure and increased ET-1 and ETA receptor expression. This was accompanied by tubular injury, wall thickening and reduction of lumen area/wall area ratio of small renal arteries, increased oxidative stress and inflammation. These parameters were attenuated in VEETKO mice.ConclusionOur results suggest that suppression of ET-1 from the endothelial cells attenuates IRI kidney injury. Blocking ET-1 effects may represent a therapeutic strategy in the management of AKI.  相似文献

Background: Acute renal dysfunction (ARD) is common after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). CPB results in a sudden systemic inflammatory response. Systemic and local pro-inflammatory cytokines synthesis has been linked with sub-clinical renal injury, especially tubular lesions. Therefore, we sought to assess the systemic synthesis pro-inflammatory cytokines and its association with perioperative ARD after cardiac surgery with CPB. Methods: Sixty-two patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB were prospectively included. Four groups of patients were defined according to blood creatinine increase: no ARD (less than 25% increase), faint ARD (25–50% increase), moderate ARD (50–100% increase), severe ARD (more than 100% increase). Results: Within the 48 post-operative hours was ARD observed as no dysfunction (41.9%), faint (32.2%), moderate (16.1%), severe (9.6%). One patient had to undergo a dialysis. Pre-operative characteristics were homogenous between the four groups excepted the left ventricle ejection fraction. ARD was associated with a low urinary output with high sodium excretion fraction. Significant increase of IL-6 level occurred when patients underwent a severe ARD despite no significant differences for the CRP and TNF-α concentrations. Conclusion: Severe acute renal dysfunction after cardiac surgery with CPB is associated with a significant increased IL-6 systemic production.  相似文献

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with an inflammatory process that leads to lung injury. In this study, we hypothesized that inhaled nitric oxide (INO) possesses the ability to modulate CPB-induced inflammation. Fifteen male pigs were randomly divided into 3 groups: Sham, CPB+LPS (CPB and lipopolysaccharide), and CPB+LPS+INO. INO (20 parts per million) was administered for 24 h after anesthesia. CPB was performed for 90 min, and LPS was infused (1 microg/kg) after CPB. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and blood were collected at T0 (before CPB), at 4 h, and at 24 h. At 24 h, BAL interleukin-8 (IL-8) levels were not increased as expected in the CPB+LPS group compared with the Sham group, but they were reduced significantly in the CPB+LPS+INO group. Cell hypo reactivity observed in the groups receiving LPS also seemed to downregulate endothelial nitric oxide synthase NOS protein expression relative to the Sham group. Nitrite and nitrate (NOx) concentrations were decreased significantly in the groups without INO. Moreover, animals treated with INO showed higher rates of pulmonary apoptosis compared with their respective controls. These results demonstrate that NOx production is reduced after CPB and that INO acts on the inflammatory process by diminishing neutrophils and their major chemoattractant, IL-8. INO also increases cell apoptosis in the lungs under inflammatory conditions, which may explain, in part, how it resolves pulmonary inflammation.  相似文献

Viral hemorrhagic fevers are characterized by enhanced permeability. One of the most affected target organs of hantavirus-induced hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome is the kidney, and an infection often results in acute renal failure. To study the underlying cellular effects leading to kidney dysfunction, we infected human renal cell types in vitro that are critical for the barrier functions of the kidney, and we examined kidney biopsy specimens obtained from hantavirus-infected patients. We analyzed the infection and pathogenic effects in tubular epithelial and glomerular endothelial renal cells and in podocytes. Both epithelial and endothelial cells and podocytes were susceptible to hantavirus infection in vitro. The infection disturbed the structure and integrity of cell-to-cell contacts, as demonstrated by redistribution and reduction of the tight junction protein ZO-1 and the decrease in the transepithelial resistance in infected epithelial monolayers. An analysis of renal biopsy specimens from hantavirus-infected patients revealed that the expression and the localization of the tight junction protein ZO-1 were altered compared to renal biopsy specimens from noninfected individuals. Both tubular and glomerular cells were affected by the infection. Furthermore, the decrease in glomerular ZO-1 correlates with disease severity induced by glomerular dysfunction. The finding that different renal cell types are susceptible to hantaviral infection and the fact that infection results in the breakdown of cell-to-cell contacts provide useful insights in hantaviral pathogenesis.  相似文献

Renal hypoxia and dysoxia after reperfusion of the ischemic kidney   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Ischemia is the most common cause of acute renal failure. Ischemic-induced renal tissue hypoxia is thought to be a major component in the development of acute renal failure in promoting the initial tubular damage. Renal oxygenation originates from a balance between oxygen supply and consumption. Recent investigations have provided new insights into alterations in oxygenation pathways in the ischemic kidney. These findings have identified a central role of microvascular dysfunction related to an imbalance between vasoconstrictors and vasodilators, endothelial damage and endothelium-leukocyte interactions, leading to decreased renal oxygen supply. Reduced microcirculatory oxygen supply may be associated with altered cellular oxygen consumption (dysoxia), because of mitochondrial dysfunction and activity of alternative oxygen-consuming pathways. Alterations in oxygen utilization and/or supply might therefore contribute to the occurrence of organ dysfunction. This view places oxygen pathways' alterations as a potential central player in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury. Both in regulation of oxygen supply and consumption, nitric oxide seems to play a pivotal role. Furthermore, recent studies suggest that, following acute ischemic renal injury, persistent tissue hypoxia contributes to the development of chronic renal dysfunction. Adaptative mechanisms to renal hypoxia may be ineffective in more severe cases and lead to the development of chronic renal failure following ischemia-reperfusion. This paper is aimed at reviewing the current insights into oxygen transport pathways, from oxygen supply to oxygen consumption in the kidney and from the adaptation mechanisms to renal hypoxia. Their role in the development of ischemia-induced renal damage and ischemic acute renal failure are discussed.  相似文献

Bone morphogenic protein (BMP)-7 is a 35-kDa homodimeric protein and a member of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta superfamily. BMP-7 expression is highest in the kidney, and its genetic deletion in mice leads to severe impairment of eye, skeletal and kidney development. Here we report that BMP-7 reverses TGF-beta1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by reinduction of E-cadherin, a key epithelial cell adhesion molecule. Additionally, we provide molecular evidence for Smad-dependent reversal of TGF-beta1-induced EMT by BMP-7 in renal tubular epithelial cells and mammary ductal epithelial cells. In the kidney, EMT-induced accumulation of myofibroblasts and subsequent tubular atrophy are considered key determinants of renal fibrosis during chronic renal injury. We therefore tested the potential of BMP-7 to reverse TGF-beta1-induced de novo EMT in a mouse model of chronic renal injury. Our results show that systemic administration of recombinant human BMP-7 leads to repair of severely damaged renal tubular epithelial cells, in association with reversal of chronic renal injury. Collectively, these results provide evidence of cross talk between BMP-7 and TGF-beta1 in the regulation of EMT in health and disease.  相似文献

The evidence supporting a role for direct neurogenic control of renal function was investigated in twenty anaesthetized dogs. Unilateral renal sympathectomy was induced by 0.5 mg/kg/min of lidocain infusion into the left renal artery and the kidney function changes were compared to those observed in the right non infused kidney. The renal parameters were similar in the kidneys during the control periods. 0.5 mg/kg/min of lidocain infusion into the left renal artery resulted in significant reductions of the RBF, GFR, urine and sodium excretion in the left kidney. The intrarenal lidocain infusion induced a small decrease of the arterial blood pressure but this can not explain the changes observed in the left kidney. The modifications of the right kidney function during lidocain infusion were significantly less than those observed in the left kidney. Comparing the measured RBF and the renal blood flow calculated by the CPAH in the left kidney during the lidocain infusion, we have found a marked difference, when the decrease of the calculated RBF was greater. We believe that effects of pharmacological denervation can be best explained by the intrarenal hemodinamically mediated changes. The sympathectomy produces a considerable vasoconstriction in the renal cortical vascular bed, subsequently it decreases the RBF, GFR renal sodium and water excretion. But the lidocain blocks the sympathetic nerves influencing the renal medullary vessels and the renal medullary blood flow increases. These observations are not consistent with the notion that renal nerves are at least partially responsible for the natriuresis accompanying salt loading.  相似文献

Objective

Infants are more vulnerable to kidney injuries induced by inflammatory response syndrome and ischemia-reperfusion injury following cardiopulmonary bypass especially with prolonged hypothermic low-flow (HLF). This study aims to evaluate the protective role of ulinastatin, an anti-inflammatory agent, against acute kidney injuries in infant piglets model undergoing surgery on HLF cardiopulmonary bypass.

Methods

Eighteen general-type infant piglets were randomly separated into the ulinastatin group (Group U, n = 6), the control group (Group C, n = 6), and the sham operation group (Group S, n = 6), and anaesthetized. The groups U and C received following experimental procedure: median thoracotomy, routine CPB and HLF, and finally weaned from CPB. The group S only underwent sham median thoracotomy. Ulinastatin at a dose of 5,000 units/kg body weight and a certain volume of saline were administrated to animals of the groups U and C at the beginning of CPB and at aortic declamping, respectively. Venous blood samples were collected at 3 different time points: after anesthesia induction in all experimental groups, 5 minutes, and 120 minutes after CPB in the Groups U and C. Markers for inflammation and acute kidney injury were tested in the collected plasma. N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) from urine, markers of oxidative stress injury and TUNEL-positive cells in kidney tissues were also detected.

Results

The expressions of plasma inflammatory markers and acute kidney injury markers increased both in Group U and Group C at 5 min and 120 min after CPB. Also, numbers of TUNEL-positive cells and oxidative stress markers in kidney rose in both groups. At the time point of 120-min after CPB, compared with the Group C, some plasma inflammatory and acute kidney injury markers as well as TUNEL-positive cells and oxidative stress markers in kidney were significantly reduced in the Group U. Histologic analyses showed that HLF promoted acute tubular necrosis and dilatation.

Conclusions

HLF cardiopulmonary bypass surgery could intensify systemic inflammatory responses and oxidative stress on infant piglets, thus causing acute kidney injury. Ulinastatin might reduce such inflammatory response and oxidative stress and the extent of kidney injury.  相似文献

Adaptive responses during anemia and its correction in lambs.   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
There is limited information available on which to base decisions regarding red blood cell (RBC) transfusion treatment in anemic newborn infants. Using a conscious newborn lamb model of progressive anemia, we sought to identify accessible metabolic and cardiovascular measures of hypoxia that might provide guidance in the management of anemic infants. We hypothesized that severe phlebotomy-induced isovolemic anemia and its reversal after RBC transfusion result in a defined pattern of adaptive responses. Anemia was produced over 2 days by serial phlebotomy (with plasma replacement) to Hb levels of 30-40 g/l. During the ensuing 2 days, Hb was restored to pretransfusion baseline levels by repeated RBC transfusion. Area-under-the-curve methodology was utilized for defining the Hb level at which individual study variables demonstrated significant change. Significant reciprocal changes (P < 0.05) of equivalent magnitude were observed during the phlebotomy and transfusion phases for cardiac output, plasma erythropoietin (Epo) concentration, oxygen extraction ratio, oxygen delivery, venous oxygen saturation, and blood lactate concentration. No significant change was observed in resting oxygen consumption. Cardiac output and plasma Epo concentration increased at Hb levels <75 g/l, oxygen delivery and oxygen extraction ratio decreased at Hb levels <60 g/l, and venous oxygen saturation decreased and blood lactate concentration increased at Hb levels <55 g/l. We speculate that plasma Epo and blood lactate concentrations may be useful measures of clinically significant anemia in infants and may indicate when an infant might benefit from a RBC transfusion.  相似文献

Renovascular hypertension can result from renal artery lesions involving the main renal artery, or its branches. It is generally felt that the elevation of blood pressure results from excessive systemic vasoconstriction secondary to enhanced renin secretion by one or part of one kidney. Renin secretion is enhanced because of constriction of the renal artery and resultant intrarenal ischemia. Clinically patients cannot be distinguished from those with essential hypertension and diagnosis must be made with arteriography although urography and isotope renography may suggest the diagnosis. Surgical cure can be predicted if differential renal vein renin ratios lateralize but a non-lateralizing study does not necessarily mean that surgery will fail. In properly selected patients, surgical results are excellent.  相似文献

Renal ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients and occlusion of renal blood flow is unavoidable during renal transplantation. Experimental models that accurately and reproducibly recapitulate renal IRI are crucial in dissecting the pathophysiology of AKI and the development of novel therapeutic agents. Presented here is a mouse model of renal IRI that results in reproducible AKI. This is achieved by a midline laparotomy approach for the surgery with one incision allowing both a right nephrectomy that provides control tissue and clamping of the left renal pedicle to induce ischaemia of the left kidney. By careful monitoring of the clamp position and body temperature during the period of ischaemia this model achieves reproducible functional and structural injury. Mice sacrificed 24 hr following surgery demonstrate loss of renal function with elevation of the serum or plasma creatinine level as well as structural kidney damage with acute tubular necrosis evident. Renal function improves and the acute tissue injury resolves during the course of 7 days following renal IRI such that this model may be used to study renal regeneration. This model of renal IRI has been utilized to study the molecular and cellular pathophysiology of AKI as well as analysis of the subsequent renal regeneration.  相似文献

It is well-recognized that excessive angiotensin II (ANG II) can mediate progressive renal injury. Previous studies by us and others have indicated that dopamine may modulate actions of ANG II in the kidney. The current studies investigated whether altering intrarenal dopamine levels affected ANG II-mediated renal fibrosis. We utilized a model of increased intrarenal dopamine, catechol-O-methyl-transferase knockout (COMT KO) mice, which have increased kidney dopamine levels due to deletion of a major intrarenal dopamine-metabolizing enzyme. In wild-type mice, chronic ANG II infusion increased renal expression of both of the major dopamine-metabolizing enzymes, COMT and monoamine oxidase. After 8 wk of ANG II infusion, there were no significant differences in blood pressure between wild-type and COMT KO mice. Compared with wild-type, COMT KO mice had decreased albuminuria and tubulointerstitial injury. In response to ANG II infusion, there was decreased expression of both glomerular and tubulointerstitial injury markers (fibronectin, connective tissue growth factor, fibroblast-specific protein-1, collagen I, podocyte vascular endothelial growth factor) in COMT KO mice. We recently reported that ANG II-mediated tubulointerstitial fibrosis is mediated by src-dependent epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activation. In aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase knockout (AADC KO) mice, a model of intrarenal dopamine deficiency due to selective proximal tubule AADC deletion, which inhibits intrarenal dopamine synthesis, ANG II infusion further increased expression of p-src and pTyr845-EGFR. In contrast, their expression was markedly attenuated in COMT KO mice. These results demonstrate a role for intrarenal dopamine to buffer the detrimental effects of ANG II upon the kidney.  相似文献

Rhabdomyolysis-induced renal failure represents up to 15% of all cases of acute renal failure. Many studies over the past 4 decades have demonstrated that accumulation of myoglobin in the kidney is central in the mechanism leading to kidney injury. However, some discussion exists regarding the mechanism mediating this oxidant injury. Although the free-iron-catalyzed Fenton reaction has been proposed to explain the tissue injury, more recent evidence strongly suggests that the main cause of oxidant injury is myoglobin redox cycling and generation of oxidized lipids. These molecules can propagate tissue injury and cause renal vasoconstriction, two of the three main conditions associated with acute renal failure. This review presents the evidence supporting the two mechanisms of oxidative injury, describes the central role of myoglobin redox cycling in the pathology of renal failure associated with rhabdomyolysis, and discusses the value of therapeutic interventions aiming at inhibiting myoglobin redox cycling for the treatment of rhabdomyolysis-induced renal failure.  相似文献

BackgroundRegulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress excessive immune responses and play a crucial protective role in acute kidney injury (AKI). The aim of this study was to examine the therapeutic potential of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1-overexpressing mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in inducing local generation of Tregs in the kidney after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.MethodsMSCs were transduced with a lentiviral vector expressing the TGF-β1 gene; TGF-β1-overexpressing MSCs (designated TGF-β1/MSCs) were then transfused into the I/R-injured kidney via the renal artery.ResultsMSCs genetically modified with TGF-β1 achieved overexpression of TGF-β1. Compared with green fluorescent protein (GFP)/MSCs, TGF-β1/MSCs markedly improved renal function after I/R injury and reduced epithelial apoptosis and subsequent inflammation. The enhanced immunosuppressive and therapeutic abilities of TGF-β1/MSCs were associated with increased generation of induced Tregs and improved intrarenal migration of the injected cells. Futhermore, the mechanism of TGF-β1/MSCs in attenuating renal I/R injury was not through a direct canonical TGF-β1/Smad pathway.ConclusionTGF-β1/MSCs can induce a local immunosuppressive effect in the I/R-injured kidney. The immunomodulatory activity of TGF-β1–modified MSCs appears to be a gateway to new therapeutic approaches to prevent renal I/R injury.  相似文献

We investigated whether cosupplementation with synthetic tetra-tert-butyl bisphenol (BP) and vitamin C (Vit C) ameliorated oxidative stress and acute kidney injury (AKI) in an animal model of acute rhabdomyolysis (RM). Rats were divided into groups: Sham and Control (normal chow), and BP (receiving 0.12% w/w BP in the diet; 4 weeks) with or without Vit C (100mg/kg ascorbate in PBS ip at 72, 48, and 24h before RM induction). All animals (except the Sham) were treated with 50% v/v glycerol/PBS (6 mL/kg injected into the hind leg) to induce RM. After 24h, urine, plasma, kidneys, and aortae were harvested. Lipid oxidation (assessed as cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides and hydroxides and F(2)-isoprostanes accumulation) increased in the kidney and plasma and this was coupled with decreased aortic levels of cyclic guanylylmonophosphate (cGMP). In renal tissues, RM stimulated glutathione peroxidase (GPx)-4, superoxide dismutase (SOD)-1/2 and nuclear factor kappa-beta (NFκβ) gene expression and promoted AKI as judged by formation of tubular casts, damaged epithelia, and increased urinary levels of total protein, kidney-injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), and clusterin. Supplementation with BP±Vit C inhibited the two indices of lipid oxidation, down-regulated GPx-4, SOD1/2, and NF-κβ gene responses and restored aortic cGMP, yet renal dysfunction and altered kidney morphology persisted. By contrast, supplementation with Vit C alone inhibited oxidative stress and diminished cast formation and proteinuria, while other plasma and urinary markers of AKI remained elevated. These data indicate that lipid- and water-soluble antioxidants may differ in terms of their therapeutic impact on RM-induced renal dysfunction.  相似文献

The aim of this nested case–control study was to assess the combined use of urinary kidney injury molecule (KIM)-1 and interleukin (IL)-18 for acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery (CPB). From a cohort of 122 subjects who underwent CPB, serial urinary KIM-1 and IL-18 concentrations were determined in 30 AKI and 92 non-AKI patients. An increased level of urinary KIM-1 was associated with the occurrence of AKI, whereas an increased level of IL-18 was related to progressive AKI. The combination of these two biomarkers facilitates the early diagnosis and assessment of the likely progression of AKI after CPB.  相似文献
