Ischemic acute kidney injury induces a distant organ functional and genomic response distinguishable from bilateral nephrectomy.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant mortality, which increases further when combined with acute lung injury. Experiments in rodents have shown that kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) facilitates lung injury and inflammation. To identify potential ischemia-specific lung molecular pathways involved, we conducted global gene expression profiling of lung 6 or 36 h followi...
متن کاملCirculating IL-6 mediates lung injury via CXCL1 production after acute kidney injury in mice.
Serum IL-6 is increased in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and is associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation and increased mortality. Inhibition of IL-6 in mice with AKI reduces lung injury associated with a reduction in the chemokine CXCL1 and lung neutrophils. Whether circulating IL-6 or locally produced lung IL-6 mediates lung injury after AKI is unknown. We hypothesized that c...
متن کاملInterleukin-19 Mediates Tissue Damage in Murine Ischemic Acute Kidney Injury
Inflammation and renal tubular injury are major features of acute kidney injury (AKI). Many cytokines and chemokines are released from injured tubular cells and acts as proinflammatory mediators. However, the role of IL-19 in the pathogenesis of AKI is not defined yet. In bilateral renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI)-induced and HgCl2-induced AKI animal models, real-time quantitative (RTQ)-...
متن کاملDistant organ injury following acute kidney injury.
ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY (AKI) is associated with unacceptably high mortality that can range from 40 to 60% in some cases (14). The incidence of AKI continues to increase (15, 16) and is associated with a changing spectrum of illnesses, significant comorbid and extrarenal complications (12), and unsatisfactory preventive or treatment strategies (5). The etiology of AKI is diverse, and ischemia const...
متن کاملAdvances in understanding ischemic acute kidney injury
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is independently associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Ischemia is the leading cause of AKI, and short of supportive measures, no currently available therapy can effectively treat or prevent ischemic AKI. This paper discusses recent developments in the understanding of ischemic AKI pathophysiology, the emerging relationship between ischemic AKI and develop...
