<b><i>Background:</i></b> In recent years, increasing discovery of the extremely important regulatory effects of circular RNAs on biological development, angiogenesis, tumor genesis, and development, as well as stem cell proliferation and differentiation has provided new opportunities for investigating regulation mechanism in angiogenesis. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> This study explored the expression of circ 001839 in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RI-RI) rats and whether its upstream microRNA-432-3p (miR-432-3p) affects inflammation in both RI-RI rats and NRK52E cells. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Rat model of RI-RI was made, and circ 001839 was identified by the gene-chip analysis in RI-RI rats. Expression of circ 001839 and miR-432-3p was measured by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, protein expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, interferon (IFN)-γ, IL-6, and IL-18 in rat serum and cell supernatant was determined by ELISA, and the expression of NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) and other gap-associated proteins in NRK52E cells was evaluated by Western blot analysis. Next, to verify the regulatory relationship between circ 001839 and miR-432-3p, 2 luciferase reporters were constructed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Circ 001839 expression of RI-RI rats and NRK52E cells was significantly upregulated, compared with the control group. Circ 001839 overexpression significantly increased inflammation through promoting TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-6 expression levels in NRK52E cells. Overexpression of miR-432-3p significantly promoted inflammation in NRK52E cells via induction of NLRP3. Moreover, miR-432-3p decreased the effects of circ 001839-induced inflammation in NRK52E cells. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> These findings suggested that circ 001839 promoted inflammation in RI-RI through NLRP3 by miR-432-3p.

Tlr4 Signaling Pathway

The pathogenesis of renal ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) involves both inflammatory processes and oxidative stress in the kidney. This study determined whether remote ischemic per-conditioning (RIPerC) is mediated by toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway in rats. Renal IR injury was induced by occluding renal arteries for 45 min followed by 24 h of reperfusion. RIPerC included 4 cycles of 2 min of ischemia of the left femoral artery followed by 3 min of reperfusion performed at the start of renal ischemia. Rats were divided into sham, IR, and RIPerC groups. At the end of the reperfusion period, urine, blood and tissue samples were gathered. IR created kidney dysfunction, as ascertained by a significant decrease in creatinine clearance and a significant increase in sodium fractional excretion. These changes occurred in concert with a decrease in the activities of glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase with an increment in malondialdehyde levels, mRNA expression levels of TLR4 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and histological damage in renal tissues. RIPerC treatment diminished all these changes. This study demonstrates that RIPerC has protective effects on the kidney after renal IR, which might be related to the inhibition of the TLR4 signaling pathway and augmentation of antioxidant systems.

Introduction: Renal ischemia reperfusion injury is one of the main causes of acute renal failure, which is associated with high mortality. Tissue damage caused by ischemia-reperfusion occurs due to the release of oxygen free radicals. Type I angiotensin receptor antagonists such as valsartan can be useful in the treatment of chronic kidney disease and hypertension. Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the protective effect of valsartan against renal ischemia reperfusion via antioxidant property and nitric oxide (NO) signaling pathway. Materials and Methods: Fifty male Wistar rats (220±10 g) were randomly divided into five groups as follows: Group 1; healthy rats without ischemia-reperfusion (control group). Group 2; rats with ischemia reperfusion (IR) (IR control group). Group 3; rats with IR which received 30 mg/kg valsartan orally. Group 4; rats with IR which received 30 mg/kg valsartan together with 40 mg/kg L-NAME. Group 5; rats with IR which received 30 mg/kg valsartan together with 40 mg/kg L-arginine. To induce ischemia-reperfusion, rats were anesthetized with thiopental and underwent surgery. Then, we induced ischemia with blocking blood vessels for 45 minutes by clamping. Biochemical parameters including urea and creatinine were measured using commercial kits. Oxidative stress and inflammatory parameters were measured by ELISA method. Renal tissues were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Finally, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to determine the normal distribution of data. Results: The findings of this study indicated that treatment with valsartan and valsartan plus L-arginine leads to significant decrease in the serum levels of creatinine, urea, and albumin/creatinine, malondialdehyde (MDA), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in contrast to IR control group which has increased level of these parameters. On the other hand, treatment with valsartan and valsartan plus L-arginine lead to increase in the serum levels of glutathione peroxidase (GPX), in contrast to ischemia reperfusion control group. Conclusion: Our data revealed that valsartan as a type I angiotensin receptor antagonist could decrease oxidative stress and inflammation due to renal ischemia reperfusion injury. Hence, valsartan could propose as a therapeutic agent for kidney diseases such as renal ischemia-reperfusion injury regarded to these renoprotective effects.

Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury

Renal ischemia reperfusion injury (RIRI) is one of the main causes of acute kidney injury. This study aimed to explore whether tubeimoside-1 (TBMS1) could protect against RIRI. RIRI mice model and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced NRK-52E cells were used in this study. The renal pathology was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining to calculate the tubular injury score. The levels of serum creatinine and blood urine nitrogen were analyzed by a Hitachi model 7180 automatic analyzer. The expressions of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6), Bax, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, total caspase-3, and total caspase-9 in renal tissues and NRK-52E cells were detected by western blot analysis. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in serum and NRK-52E cells were measured by a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. The renal cell apoptosis in renal tissues was analyzed by TUNEL assay, and NRK-52E cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry analysis. CCK-8 assay was used to analyze the viability of NRK-52E cells after the indicated treatment. As a result, the renal tissues that were seriously damaged in mice with RIRI could be alleviated by TBMS1. Therefore, 50 mg/kg TBMS1 was chosen for the animal experiment. Renal cell apoptosis was increased in renal tissues of mice with RIRI. These changes could be partially reversed by TBMS1 treatment. TBMS1 improved the viability, and reduced the inflammation and apoptosis of H/R-induced NRK-52E cells. In conclusion, TBMS1 ameliorates RIRI by promoting viability and suppressing apoptosis and inflammation of renal cells.

Deficient Mice

Recent data support a modulatory role for CD4 T cells in experimental renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). CD4 T cells can functionally differentiate to either a Th1 (IFN-γ producing) or the counterbalancing Th2 (IL-4) phenotype. The enzymes signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) 4 and STAT6 regulate Th1 or Th2 differentiation and cytokine production, respectively. We therefore hypothesized that mice that were STAT4 deficient would be protected from renal IRI and that STAT6-deficient mice would have a more severe course. Intracellular cytokine staining of splenocytes from STAT4–/– or STAT6–/– exhibited distinct IFN-γ and IL-4 cytokine expression profiles. STAT6–/– had markedly worse renal function and tubular injury postischemia compared with wild type. STAT4–/– had only mildly improved function. Renal phagocyte infiltration and ICAM-1 upregulation were similar in STAT4–/–, STAT6–/–, and wild type. To evaluate if the mechanism of the marked worsening in the STAT6–/– mice could be due to IL-4 deficiency, IL-4-deficient mice were studied and had similar postischemic phenotype to STAT6–/– mice. These data demonstrate that the STAT6 pathway has a major protective role in renal IRI. IL-4 deficiency is a likely mechanism underlying the STAT6 effect. A “yin-yang” role for inflammation is emerging in renal IRI, similar to recent observations in atherosclerosis.

AbstractThe mortality of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) remains high due to AKI associated-lung injury. An effective strategy for preventing both AKI and AKI-associated lung injury is urgently needed. Thioredoxin-1 (Trx) is a redox-active protein that possesses anti-oxidative, anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties including modulation of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), but its short half-life limits its clinical application. Therefore, we examined the preventive effect of a long-acting Trx, which is a fusion protein of albumin and Trx (HSA-Trx), against AKI and AKI-associated lung injury. Recombinant HSA-Trx was expressed using a Pichia expression system. AKI-induced lung injury mice were generated by bilateral renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI). HSA-Trx administration attenuated renal IRI and its-associated lung injury. Both renal and pulmonary oxidative stress were suppressed by HSA-Trx. Moreover, HSA-Trx inhibited elevations of plasma IL-6 and TNF-α level, and suppressed IL-6–CXCL1/2-mediated neutrophil infiltration into lung and TNF-α-mediated pulmonary apoptosis. Additionally, HSA-Trx suppressed renal IRI-induced MIF expression in kidney and lung. Administration of HSA-Trx resulted in a significant increase in the survival rate of renal IRI mice. Collectively, HSA-Trx could have therapeutic utility in preventing both AKI and AKI-associated lung injury as a consequence of its systemic and sustained multiple biological action.

Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury

Renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major factor responsible for acute renal failure. An intermediate in heme synthesis, 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is fundamental in aerobic energy metabolism. Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 cleaves heme to form biliverdin, carbon monoxide (CO), and iron (Fe2+), which is used with 5-ALA. In the present study, we investigated the role of 5-ALA in the attenuation of acute renal IRI using a mouse model. Male Balb/c mice received 30 mg/kg 5-ALA with Fe2+ 48, 24, and 2 h before IRI and were subsequently subjected to bilateral renal pedicle occlusion for 45 min. The endogenous CO concentration of the kidneys from the mice administered 5-ALA/Fe2+ increased significantly, and the peak concentrations of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen decreased. 5-ALA/Fe2+ treatments significantly decreased the tubular damage and number of apoptotic cells. IRI-induced renal thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance levels were also significantly decreased in the 5-ALA/Fe2+ group. Furthermore, mRNA expression of HO-1, TNF-α, and interferon-γ was significantly increased after IRI. Levels of HO-1 were increased and levels of TNF-α and interferon-γ were decreased in the 5-ALA/Fe2+-pretreated renal parenchyma after IRI. F4/80 staining showed reduced macrophage infiltration, and TUNEL staining revealed that there were fewer interstitial apoptotic cells. These findings suggest that 5-ALA/Fe2+ can protect the kidneys against IRI by reducing macrophage infiltration and decreasing renal cell apoptosis via the generation of CO.
