Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney injury. SS-31 is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that can scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, we investigated the effect and molecular mechanism of mitochondria-targeted antioxidant peptide SS-31 on injuries in diabetic kidneys and mouse mesangial cells (MMCs) exposed to high-glucose (HG) ambience. CD-1 mice underwent uninephrectomy and streptozotocin treatment prior to receiving daily intraperitoneal injection of SS-31 for 8 wk. The diabetic mice treated with SS-31 had alleviated proteinuria, urinary 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine level, glomerular hypertrophy, and accumulation of renal fibronectin and collagen IV. SS-31 attenuated renal cell apoptosis and expression of Bax and reversed the expression of Bcl-2 in diabetic mice kidneys. Furthermore, SS-31 inhibited expression of transforming-growth factor (TGF)-β1, Nox4, and thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP), as well as activation of p38 MAPK and CREB and NADPH oxidase activity in diabetic kidneys. In vitro experiments using MMCs revealed that SS-31 inhibited HG-mediated ROS generation, apoptosis, expression of cleaved caspase-3, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and cytochrome c (cyt c) release from mitochondria. SS-31 normalized mitochondrial potential (ΔΨm) and ATP alterations, and inhibited the expression of TGF-β1, Nox4, and TXNIP, as well as activation of p38 MAPK and CREB and NADPH oxidase activity in MMCs under HG conditions. SS-31 treatment also could reverse the reduction of thioredoxin (TRX) biologic activity and upregulate expression of thioredoxin 2 (TRX2) in MMCs under HG conditions. In conclusion, this study demonstrates a protective effect of SS-31 against HG-induced renal injury via an antioxidant mechanism in diabetic nephropathy.

Increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the subsequent DNA damage and excessive activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemic injury. We previously demonstrated that pharmacological inhibition of PARP protects against ischemic renal injury (IRI) in rats (Martin DR, Lewington AJ, Hammerman MR, and Padanilam BJ. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 279: R1834–R1840, 2000). To further define the role of PARP-1 in IRI, we tested whether genetic ablation of PARP-1 attenuates tissue injury after renal ischemia. Twenty-four hours after reperfusion following 37 min of bilateral renal pedicle occlusion, the effects of the injury on renal functions in PARP−/− and PARP+/+ mice were assessed by determining glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and the plasma levels of creatinine. The levels of plasma creatinine were decreased and GFR was augmented in PARP−/− mice. Morphological evaluation of the kidney tissues showed that the extent of damage due to the injury in PARP−/− mice was less compared with their wild-type counterparts. The levels of ROS and DNA damage were comparable in the injured kidneys of PARP+/+ and PARP−/− mice. PARP activity was induced in ischemic kidneys of PARP+/+ mice at 6–24 h postinjury. At 6, 12, and 24 h after injury, ATP levels in the PARP+/+ mice kidney declined to 28, 26, and 43%, respectively, whereas it was preserved close to normal levels in PARP−/− mice. The inflammatory cascade was attenuated in PARP−/− mice as evidenced by decreased neutrophil infiltration and attenuated expression of inflammatory molecules such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1. At 12 h postinjury, no apoptotic cell death was observed in PARP−/− mice kidneys. However, by 24 h postinjury, a comparable number of cells underwent apoptosis in both PARP−/− and PARP+/+ mice kidneys. Thus activation of PARP post-IRI contributes to cell death most likely by ATP depletion and augmentation of the inflammatory cascade in the mouse model. PARP ablation preserved ATP levels, renal functions, and attenuated inflammatory response in the setting of IRI in the mouse model. PARP inhibition may have clinical efficacy in preventing the progression of acute renal failure complications.

Diabetic nephropathy is increasing in incidence and is now the number one cause of end-stage renal disease in the industrialized world. To gain insight into the genetic susceptibility and pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy, an appropriate mouse model of diabetic nephropathy would be critical. A large number of mouse models of diabetes have been identified and their kidney disease characterized to various degrees. Perhaps the best characterized and most intensively investigated model is the db/ db mouse. Because this model appears to exhibit the most consistent and robust increase in albuminuria and mesangial matrix expansion, it has been used as a model of progressive diabetic renal disease. In this review, we present the findings from various studies on the renal pathology of the db/ db mouse model of diabetes in the context of human diabetic nephropathy. Furthermore, we discuss shortfalls of assessing functional renal disease in mouse models of diabetic kidney disease.
