Acutely Injured Kidneys Release Proteins into the Serum that Cause Oxidative Stress

ABSTRACT: NRK cells were exposed to serum-free, 10% FBS (control), 10% serum sampled from rats 24 hours after sham surgery (no kidney injury control), or 10% serum sampled from rats 24 hours after I/R AKI surgery (kidney injury serum). After 48 hours of exposure to serum, the NRK cells were harvested and processed for Agilent microarray We previously conducted a Phase I Clinical Trial in which Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells (MSCs) were administered to patients at risk for developing acute kidney injury (AKI), and which suggested that MSC therapy is safe and effective in preventing both postoperative AKI and progression to CKD. It is well understood that AKI creates an internal environment that adversely affects not only the kidneys but also the function of distant organs and tissues. To study the consequences of the AKI environment on MSCs and renal cells, we developed an in vitro assay of exposing MSCs or cultured tubular cells (NRK Cells) to serum from animals that had AKI, or SHAM surgeries. Compared to SHAM sera, exposure of cells to AKI serum caused increased intra-cellular resazurin reduction, and activation of anti-oxidant genes,

Project description:Microarray analysis of human kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) has been limited because such kidneys are seldom biopsied. However, all kidney transplants experience AKI, and early kidney transplants without rejection are an excellent model for human AKI: they are screened to exclude chronic kidney disease, frequently biopsied, and have extensive follow-up. We used histopathology and microarrays to compare indication biopsies from 28 transplants with AKI to 11 pristine protocol biopsies of stable transplants. Kidneys with AKI showed increased expression of 394 injury-repair response associated transcripts, including many known epithelial injury molecules (e.g. ITGB6, LCN2), tissue remodeling molecules (e.g. VCAN), and inflammation molecules (S100A8, ITGB3). Many other genes also predict the phenotype, depending on statistical filtering rules, including AKI biomarkers as HAVCR1 and IL18. Most mouse orthologs of the top injury-repair transcripts were increased in published mouse AKI models. Pathway analysis of the injury-repair transcripts revealed similarities to cancer, development, and cell movement. The injury-repair transcript score AKI kidneys correlated with reduced function, future recovery, brain death, and need for dialysis, but not future graft loss. In contrast, histologic features of "acute tubular injury" did not correlate with function or with the molecular changes. Thus the injury-repair associated transcripts represent a massive coordinate injury-repair response of kidney parenchyma to AKI, similar to mouse AKI models, and provide an objective measure for assessing the severity of AKI in kidney biopsies and validation for the use of many AKI biomarkers. AKI biopsies sample names and CEL files are from GSE21374. All consenting renal transplant patients undergoing biopsies for cause as standard of care between 09/2004 and 10/2007 at the university of Alberta or between 11/2006 and 02/2007 at the University of Illinois were included in the analysis. In addition to the cores required for standard histopathology, we collected one core for gene expression studies. the relationship between gene expression in the biopsy and subsequent graft loss was analyzed. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by a rapid reduction in renal function and glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The broadly used anti-cancer chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin often induces AKI as an adverse drug side effect. Therapies targeted at the reversal of AKI and its potential progression to chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease are currently insufficiently effective. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) possess diverse immunomodulatory properties that confer upon them significant therapeutic potential for the treatment of diverse inflammatory disorders. Human dermal MSCs expressing ATP-Binding Cassette member B5 (ABCB5) have shown therapeutic efficacy in clinical trials in chronic skin wounds or recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. In preclinical studies, ABCB5+ MSCs have also been shown to reverse metabolic reprogramming in polycystic kidney cells, suggesting a capacity for this cell subset to also improve organ function in kidney diseases. Here, we aimed to explore the therapeutic capacity of ABCB5+ MSCs to improve renal function in a preclinical rat model of cisplatin-induced AKI. First, ABCB5+ MSCs suppressed cisplatin-induced apoptosis of human conditionally-immortalized proximal tubular epithelial cells in vitro. Second, ABCB5+ MSCs inhibited the proliferation of either human or rat peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Third, ABCB5+ MSCs decreased TNF-α secretion after LPS stimulation in both human and rat macrophages. Fourth, clinical-grade ABCB5+ MSCs grafted intravenously and intraperitoneally to a cisplatin-induced AKI murine model exerted modulatory effects on mRNA expression patterns towards an anti-inflammatory and pro-regenerative state despite an apparent lack of amelioration of renal damage at physiologic, metabolic, and histologic levels. Our results demonstrate anti-inflammatory and pro-regenerative effects of clinical grade ABCB5+ MSCs in vitro and in vivo and suggest potential therapeutic utility of this cell population for treatment or prevention of cisplatin chemotherapy-induced tissue toxicity.
