Abstract:
Abstract. The infiltration of leukocytes plays a major role in mediating tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis in chronic renal disease. CC chemokines participate in leukocyte migration and infiltration into inflamed renal tissue. Because CC chemokine-directed leukocyte migration is mediated by target cell expression of a group of CC chemokine receptors, this study examined the expression of CC chemokines and their receptors during initiation of tubulointerstitial fibrosis after unilateral ureteral obstruction in C57BL/6 mice. Obstructed kidneys developed hydronephrosis, tubular cell da

Abstract:
Regardless of etiology, all patients with chronic renal disease show a progressive decline in renal function with time. Fibrosis, so-called scarring, is a key cause of this pathophysiology. Fibrosis involves an excess accumulation of extracellular matrix (primarily composed of collagen) and usually results in loss of function when normal tissue is replaced with scar tissue. While recent major advances have led to a much better understanding of this process, many problems remain. We for instance know little about why some wounds heal and others scar and little about how many putative antifibrot

SummaryUnilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is an animal model of accelerated renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis. We have recently shown, using this model, that mice lacking the bradykinin B2-receptor (B2-/- ) were more susceptible than control animals to the development of tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition slows down UUO-induced renal fibrosis. Since ACE-inhibition increases bradykinin and decreases angiotensin II concentrations we have verified if bradykinin is involved in the antifibrotic effects of ACE-inhibition using the UUO-model and B2-/- mice.

Abstract:
Background Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of experimental kidney disease. ACE2 is on the X chromosome, and in mice, deletion of ACE2 leads to the development of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The relationship between sex and renal ACE2 expression in humans with kidney disease is a gap in current knowledge. Methods We studied renal tubulointerstitial microarray data and clinical variables from subjects with FSGS enrolled in the Nephrotic Syndrome Study Network (NEPTUNE) study. We compared relationships between ACE2 expression and age,

Abstract:
Renal injury is accompanied by the presence of infiltrating inflammatory cells in the glomerulus and tubulointerstitium. FTY720 modifies lymphocyte migration into injured tissues by lymphocyte sequestration to secondary lymphoid organs. The purpose of this study was to examine the potential of FTY720 to influence the inflammatory response in a nonimmunological model of renal failure. Sham-operated and [Formula: see text] nephrectomized (SNX) Sprague-Dawley rats received two different doses of FTY720 or vehicle orally for 14 wk.

Abstract:
Yes-associated protein (YAP) activation after acute ischemic kidney injury might be related to interstitial fibrosis and impaired renal tubular regeneration. Verteporfin (VP) is a photosensitizer used in photodynamic therapy to treat age-related macular degeneration. In cancer cells, VP inhibits TEA domain family member (TEAD)-YAP interactions without light stimulation. The protective role of VP in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced renal fibrosis and related mechanisms remains unclear. In this study, we investigate the protective effects of VP on UUO-induced renal tubulointerstitia

Abstract:
Background and Aims. The nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat containing PYD-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD); however, its exact role in glomerular injury and tubulointerstitial fibrosis is still undefined. The present study was performed to identify the function of NLRP3 in modulating renal injury and fibrosis and the potential involvement of mitochondrial dysfunction in the murine unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model of CKD. Methods. Employing wild-type (WT) and NLRP3−/− mice with or without UUO, we evaluated

Abstract Non-specific inhibition of Rho-associated kinases (ROCKs) alleviated renal fibrosis in the unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model, while genetic deletion of ROCK1 did not affect renal pathology in mice. Thus, whether ROCK2 plays a role in renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis needs to be clarified. In the present study, a selective inhibitor against ROCK2 or genetic approach was used to investigate the role of ROCK2 in renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis. In the fibrotic kidneys of chronic kidney diseases (CKDs) patients, we observed an enhanced expression of ROCK2 with a positive corr

Abstract:
We have examined the pathogenic role of increased complement expression and activation during kidney fibrosis. Here, we show that PDGFRβ-positive pericytes isolated from mice subjected to obstructive or folic acid injury secrete C1q. This was associated with increased production of proinflammatory cytokines, extracellular matrix components, collagens, and increased Wnt3a-mediated activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, which are hallmarks of myofibroblast activation.

We hypothesized that heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), a small heat shock protein with actin-remodeling properties, is involved in the pathogenesis of kidney tubulointerstitial fibrosis. We first examined its expression in the rat unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model of kidney fibrosis and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Immunoblot analyses showed that UUO resulted in significant upregulation of TGF-β1, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), total and phosphorylated HSP27, and phosphorylated p38MAPK. Immunofluorescence studies showed that HSP27 costained with TGF-β1, α-SMA, and E-cadhe

Abstract:
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors have been shown to minimize fibrosis of the kidney tubulointerstitium in several diseases. In addition to lowering angiotensin II levels, ACE inhibitors can increase kinin levels and subsequently increase nitric oxide formation. To determine whether nitric oxide generation is a component of the beneficial effect of ACE inhibitors on renal fibrosis, enalapril, enalapril plus NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) or L-arginine was administered to rats that had undergone unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO).

Abstract:
Peritubular vascular changes and hypoxia after glomerular injury may explain subsequent tubulointerstitial injury and fibrosis. Several studies suggested that the expected tubulointerstitial angiogenic response is actively suppressed in this setting. The mechanism of this aberrant response has not been clearly identified. We used a common model of glomerular injury in rats to assess vascular changes and to identify potential factors associated with this aberrant response. Anti-Thy1.1 antibody administration (1 or 4 weekly doses) led to a dose-dependent renal damage characterized by elevated ur
