Uremia impacts renal inflammatory cytokine gene expression in the setting of experimental acute kidney injury.
Inflammatory cytokines are evoked by acute kidney injury (AKI) and may contribute to evolving renal disease. However, the impact of AKI-induced uremia on proinflammatory (e.g., TNF-alpha, MCP-1, TGF-beta1) and anti-inflammatory (e.g., IL-10) cytokine gene expression remains unknown. This study was undertaken to gain some initial insights into this issue. CD-1 mice were subjected to left renal i...
متن کاملEffect of Cyperus Rotundus on Cytokine Gene Expression in Experimental Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Background: The protective effect of the chloroform extract of Cyperus rotundus (CHCR) is attributed to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Cytokines, important regulators of inflammation and repair, play a key role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Targeting these cytokines can effectively ameliorate the symptoms of IBD. The aim of the present study was to ...
متن کاملReducing Inflammatory Cytokine Production from Renal Collecting Duct Cells by Inhibiting GATA2 Ameliorates Acute Kidney Injury.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a leading cause of chronic kidney disease. Proximal tubules are considered to be the primary origin of pathogenic inflammatory cytokines in AKI. However, it remains unclear whether other cell types, including collecting duct (CD) cells, participate in inflammatory processes. The transcription factor GATA2 is specifically expressed in CD cells and maintains their cel...
متن کاملAutophagy Limits Endotoxemic Acute Kidney Injury and Alters Renal Tubular Epithelial Cell Cytokine Expression
Sepsis related acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common in-hospital complication with a dismal prognosis. Our incomplete understanding of disease pathogenesis has prevented the identification of hypothesis-driven preventive or therapeutic interventions. Increasing evidence in ischemia-reperfusion and nephrotoxic mouse models of AKI support the theory that autophagy protects renal tubular epithelia...
متن کاملInflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Mesenteric Adipose Tissue during Acute Experimental Colitis
BACKGROUND Production of inflammatory cytokines by mesenteric adipose tissue (MAT) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Animal models of colitis have demonstrated inflammatory changes within MAT, but it is unclear if these changes occur in isolation or as part of a systemic adipose tissue response. It is also unknown what cell types are responsible for cy...
