Alkaline phosphatase protects against renal inflammation through dephosphorylation of lipopolysaccharide and adenosine triphosphate.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Recently, two phase-II trials demonstrated improved renal function in critically ill patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury treated with the enzyme alkaline phosphatase. Here, we elucidated the dual active effect on renal protection of alkaline phosphatase. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH:The effect of human recombinant alkaline phosphatase (recAP) on LPS-induced renal injury was studied in Sprague-Dawley rats. Renal function was assessed by transcutaneous measurement of FITC-sinistrin elimination in freely moving, awake rats. The mechanism of action of recAP was further investigated in vitro using conditionally immortalized human proximal tubular epithelial cells (ciPTEC). KEY RESULTS:In vivo, LPS administration significantly prolonged FITC-sinistrin half-life and increased fractional urea excretion, which was prevented by recAP co-administration. Moreover, recAP prevented LPS-induced increase in proximal tubule injury marker, kidney injury molecule-1 expression and excretion. In vitro, LPS-induced production of TNF-?, IL-6 and IL-8 was significantly attenuated by recAP. This effect was linked to dephosphorylation, as enzymatically inactive recAP had no effect on LPS-induced cytokine production. RecAP-mediated protection resulted in increased adenosine levels through dephosphorylation of LPS-induced extracellular ADP and ATP. Also, recAP attenuated LPS-induced increased expression of adenosine A2A receptor. However, the A2A receptor antagonist ZM-241385 did not diminish the effects of recAP. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS:These results indicate that the ability of recAP to reduce renal inflammation may account for the beneficial effect observed in septic acute kidney injury patients, and that dephosphorylation of ATP and LPS are responsible for this protective effect.

Project description:IntroductionDiet strongly affects gut microbiota composition, and gut bacteria can influence the intestinal barrier functions and systemic inflammation through metabolic endotoxemia. In-house feeding system (IHF, a low dietary fiber source) may cause altered cecal microbiota composition and inflammatory responses in meat geese via increased endotoxemia (lipopolysaccharides) with reduced intestinal alkaline phosphatase (ALP) production. The effects of artificial pasture grazing system (AGF, a high dietary fiber source) on modulating gut microbiota architecture and gut barrier functions have not been investigated in meat geese. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether intestinal ALP could play a critical role in attenuating reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and ROS facilitating NF-κB pathway-induced systemic inflammation in meat geese.MethodsThe impacts of IHF and AGF systems on gut microbial composition via 16 sRNA sequencing were assessed in meat geese. The host markers analysis through protein expression of serum and cecal tissues, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, localization of NF-қB and Nrf2 by immunofluorescence analysis, western blotting analysis of ALP, and quantitative PCR of cecal tissues was evaluated.Results and discussionIn the gut microbiota analysis, meat geese supplemented with pasture showed a significant increase in commensal microbial richness and diversity compared to IHF meat geese demonstrating the antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory ability of the AGF system. A significant increase in intestinal ALP-induced Nrf2 signaling pathway was confirmed representing LPS dephosphorylation mediated TLR4/MyD88 induced ROS reduction mechanisms in AGF meat geese. Further, the correlation analysis of top 44 host markers with gut microbiota showed that artificial pasture intake protected gut barrier functions via reducing ROS-mediated NF-κB pathway-induced gut permeability, systemic inflammation, and aging phenotypes. In conclusion, the intestinal ALP functions to regulate gut microbial homeostasis and barrier function appear to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines by reducing LPS-induced ROS production in AGF meat geese. The AGF system may represent a novel therapy to counteract the chronic inflammatory state leading to low dietary fiber-related diseases in animals.

Project description:Activation of A(1) adenosine receptors (ARs) protects against renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by reducing necrosis, apoptosis, and inflammation. However, extrarenal side effects (bradycardia, hypotension, and sedation) may limit A(1)AR agonist therapy for ischemic acute kidney injury. Here, we hypothesized that an allosteric enhancer for A(1)AR (PD-81723) protects against renal I/R injury without the undesirable side effects of systemic A(1)AR activation by potentiating the cytoprotective effects of renal adenosine generated locally by ischemia. Pretreatment with PD-81723 produced dose-dependent protection against renal I/R injury in A(1)AR wild-type mice but not in A(1)AR-deficient mice. Significant reductions in renal tubular necrosis, neutrophil infiltration, and inflammation as well as tubular apoptosis were observed in A(1)AR wild-type mice treated with PD-81723. Furthermore, PD-81723 decreased apoptotic cell death in human proximal tubule (HK-2) cells in culture, which was attenuated by a specific A(1)AR antagonist (8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine). Mechanistically, PD-81723 induced sphingosine kinase (SK)1 mRNA and protein expression in HK-2 cells and in the mouse kidney. Supporting a critical role of SK1 in A(1)AR allosteric enhancer-mediated renal protection against renal I/R injury, PD-81723 failed to protect SK1-deficient mice against renal I/R injury. Finally, proximal tubule sphingosine-1-phosphate type 1 receptors (S1P(1)Rs) are critical for PD-81723-induced renal protection, as mice selectively deficient in renal proximal tubule S1P(1)Rs (S1P(1)R(flox/flox) PEPCK(Cre/-) mice) were not protected against renal I/R injury with PD-81723 treatment. Taken together, our experiments demonstrate potent renal protection with PD-81723 against I/R injury by reducing necrosis, inflammation, and apoptosis through the induction of renal tubular SK1 and activation of proximal tubule S1P(1)Rs. Our findings imply that selectively enhancing A(1)AR activation by locally produced renal adenosine may be a clinically useful therapeutic option to attenuate ischemic acute kidney injury without systemic side effects.
