Eotaxin contributes to renal interstitial eosinophilia.
BACKGROUND A potent eosinophil chemotactic cytokine, human eotaxin, is directly chemotactic for eosinophils. Therefore, the specific expression of eotaxin in tissue might play a crucial role in tissue eosinophilia. However, the precise molecular mechanism of the recruitment and activation of eosinophils in human renal diseases remains to be investigated. We evaluated the role of eotaxin in the ...
متن کاملMiR-382 targeting of kallikrein 5 contributes to renal inner medullary interstitial fibrosis.
Previously we have shown that microRNA miR-382 can facilitate loss of renal epithelial characteristics in cultured cells. This study examined the in vivo role of miR-382 in the development of renal interstitial fibrosis in a mouse model. Unilateral ureteral obstruction was used to induce renal interstitial fibrosis in mice. With 3 days of unilateral ureteral obstruction, expression of miR-382 i...
متن کاملXanthine oxidoreductase depletion induces renal interstitial fibrosis through aberrant lipid and purine accumulation in renal tubules.
Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) is an enzyme responsible for purine degradation, reactive oxygen species production, and adipogenesis. XOR gene-disrupted (XOR(-/-)) mice demonstrate renal failure and early death within several months. The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanism of renal damage in XOR(-/-) mice and to determine the physiological role of XOR in the kidney. Histological ana...
متن کاملDiabetic nephropathy, inflammation, hyaluronan and interstitial fibrosis.
Hyaluronan (HA) is a ubiquitous connective tissue glycosaminoglycan component of most extracellular matrices and alterations in its synthesis have been suggested to be involved in the glomerular changes of diabetic nephropathy. Similarly it has been suggested that macrophages are involved in the initiation of diabetic glomerular injury. Much less is known regarding the role of the prognostic va...
متن کاملRenal Interstitial Fibrosis and Angiotensin Inhibition
Tubulointerstitial (TI) fibrosis is a final common pathway to progressive renal injury of all forms of renal disease. However, once renal damage reaches a certain threshold, progression of renal disease is consistent, irreversible, and largely independent of the initial injury. Angiotensin (AT) II is the main effector of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) and effects that may contribute to the ...
