The protective effects of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (NOX) 1 inhibition against kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remain uncertain. The bilateral kidney pedicles of C57BL/6 mice were clamped for 30 min to induce IRI. Madin–Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells were incubated with H2O2 (1.4 mM) for 1 h to induce oxidative stress. ML171, a selective NOX1 inhibitor, and siRNA against NOX1 were treated to inhibit NOX1. NOX expression, oxidative stress, apoptosis assay, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway were evaluated. The kidney function deteriorated and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), including intracellular H2O2 production, increased due to IRI, whereas IRI-mediated kidney dysfunction and ROS generation were significantly attenuated by ML171. H2O2 evoked the changes in oxidative stress enzymes such as SOD2 and GPX in MDCK cells, which was mitigated by ML171. Treatment with ML171 and transfection with siRNA against NOX1 decreased the upregulation of NOX1 and NOX4 induced by H2O2 in MDCK cells. ML171 decreased caspase-3 activity, the Bcl-2/Bax ratio, and TUNEL-positive tubule cells in IRI mice and H2O2-treated MDCK cells. Among the MAPK pathways, ML171 affected ERK signaling by ERK phosphorylation in kidney tissues and tubular cells. NOX1-selective inhibition attenuated kidney IRI via inhibition of ROS-mediated ERK signaling.

Kidney ischemia/reperfusion injury emerges in various clinical settings as a great problem complicating the course and outcome. Ischemia/reperfusion injury is still an unsolved puzzle with a great diversity of investigational approaches, putting the focus on oxidative stress and mitochondria. Mitochondria are both sources and targets of ROS. They participate in initiation and progression of kidney ischemia/reperfusion injury linking oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell death. The dependence of kidney proximal tubule cells on oxidative mitochondrial metabolism makes them particularly prone to harmful effects of mitochondrial damage. The administration of antioxidants has been used as a way to prevent and treat kidney ischemia/reperfusion injury for a long time. Recently a new method based on mitochondria-targeted antioxidants has become the focus of interest. Here we review the current status of results achieved in numerous studies investigating these novel compounds in ischemia/reperfusion injury which specifically target mitochondria such as MitoQ, Szeto-Schiller (SS) peptides (Bendavia), SkQ1 and SkQR1, and superoxide dismutase mimics. Based on the favorable results obtained in the studies that have examined myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, ongoing clinical trials investigate the efficacy of some novel therapeutics in preventing myocardial infarct. This also implies future strategies in preventing kidney ischemia/reperfusion injury.

AbstractBackgroundDiabetic patients are susceptible to renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, which leads to perioperative complications. Nucleotide binding and oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor 3 inflammasome participates in the development of diabetes, and contributes to renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Dexmedetomidine, a highly selective α2-adrenoreceptor agonist, shows renoprotective effects against ischemia-reperfusion injury. We aimed to elucidate the effects, underlying mechanisms, and optimal timing of dexmedetomidine treatment in diabetic rats.MethodsMale Sprague-Dawley rats (60 animals, weighing 250-300 g) were randomly divided into normal-sham, diabetes-sham, diabetes-ischemia-reperfusion-control, diabetes-ischemia-reperfusion-dexmedetomidine-pre-treatment, and diabetes-ischemia-reperfusion-dexmedetomidine-post-treatment groups. Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced in diabetic rats by occlusion of both renal arteries for 45 minutes followed by reperfusion for 24 hours. Dexmedetomidine (10 μg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally 1 hour before ischemia (pre-treatment) or upon reperfusion (post-treatment). After reperfusion, renal tissue was biochemically and histopathologically evaluated.ResultsDexmedetomidine treatment attenuated IR-induced increase in NLRP3, caspase-1, IL-1β, phospho-AKT, and phospho-ERK signaling. Moreover, oxidative stress injury, inflammatory reactions, apoptosis, and renal tubular damage were favorably modulated by dexmedetomidine treatment. Furthermore, post-reperfusion treatment with dexmedetomidine was significantly more effective than pre-treatment in modulating inflammasome, AKT and ERK signaling, and oxidative stress.ConclusionsThis study shows that protective effects of dexmedetomidine in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury are preserved in diabetic conditions and may potentially provide a basis for the use of dexmedetomidine in clinical treatment of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract Background Myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) is defined as tissue injury in the pathological process of progressive aggravation in ischemic myocardium after the occurrence of acute coronary artery occlusion. Research has documented the involvement of microRNAs (miRs) in MIRI. However, there is obscure information about the role of miR-130a-5p in MIRI. Herein, this study aims to investigate the effect of miR-130a-5p on MIRI. Methods MIRI mouse models were established. Then, the cardiac function and hemodynamics were detected using ultrasonography and multiconductive physiological recorder. Functional assays in miR-130a-5p were adopted to test the degrees of oxidative stress, mitochondrial functions, inflammation and apoptosis. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was performed to validate the myocardial injury in mice. Reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was employed to assess the expression patterns of miR-130a-5p, high mobility group box (HMGB)2 and NF-κB. Then, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to elucidate the targeting relation between miR-130a-5p and HMGB2. Results Disrupted structural arrangement in MIRI mouse models was evident from HE staining. RT-qPCR revealed that overexpressed miR-130a-5p alleviated MIRI, MIRI-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial disorder in the mice. Next, the targeting relation between miR-130a-5p and HMGB2 was ascertained. Overexpressed HMGB2 annulled the protective effects of miR-130a-5p in MIRI mice. Additionally, miR-130a-5p targets HMGB2 to downregulate the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) axis, mitigating the inflammatory injury induced by MIRI. Conclusion Our study demonstrated that miR-130a-5p suppresses MIRI by down-regulating the HMGB2/NF-κB axis. This investigation may provide novel insights for development of MIRI treatments.
