Abstract
During the past decade the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) has been recognized as a unique modality of pathogen fixation (sticky extracellular chromatin) and pathogen killing (cytotoxic histones and proteases) during host defense, as well as collateral tissue damage. Numerous other triggers induce NET formation in multiple forms of sterile inflammation, including thrombosis, gout, obstruction of draining ducts, and trauma. Whether neutrophils always die along with NET release, and if they do die, how, remains under study and is most likely context dependent. In certain settings, neutrophils release NETs while undergoing regulated necrosis-for example, necroptosis. NETs and extracellular traps (ETs) released by macrophages also have been well documented in kidney diseases-for example, in various forms of acute kidney injury. Histones released from ETs and other sources are cytotoxic and elicit inflammation, contributing to necroinflammation of the early-injury phase of acute tubular necrosis in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-related renal vasculitis, anti-glomerular basement membrane disease, lupus nephritis, and thrombotic microangiopathies. Finally, acute kidney injury-related releases of dying renal cells or ETs promote remote organ injuries-for example, acute respiratory distress syndrome. In this review, we summarize what is known about the release of ETs from neutrophils and macrophages in the kidney, the available experimental evidence, and ongoing discussions in the field.

Abstract
Use of cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery triggers systemic inflammation by neutrophil activation leading to neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) release. Hence, nuclear DNA released by necrotic and apoptotic cells might contribute to an increase in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA). cfDNA/NETs might induce endothelial damage and organ dysfunction. This study focuses on the accuracy of cfDNA to predict acute kidney injury (AKI) after on-pump surgery. 58 cardiac patients undergoing on-pump surgery were prospectively enrolled. Blood samples were taken preoperatively, immediately after surgery, at day 1, 2, 3 and 5 from patients with (n = 21) or without (n = 37) postoperative AKI development. Levels of cfDNA, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and creatinine in patients’ plasma were quantified. ROC curves were used to assess the predictive value of the biomarkers for AKI. Further baseline characteristics and perioperative variables were analyzed.cfDNA and NGAL levels highly increased in AKI patients and significant intergroup differences (vs. non-AKI) were found until day 3 and day 5 after surgery, respectively. cfDNA levels were significantly elevated in patients who developed late AKI (>24 hours), but not in those with AKI development during the first 24 hours (early AKI). NGAL and creatinine, which were highest in patients with early AKI, accurately predicted during the first 24 postoperative hours (early AKI). At day 3, at a threshold of 260.53 ng/ml cfDNA was the best predictor for AKI (AUC = 0.804) compared to NGAL (AUC = 0.699) and creatinine (AUC = 0.688). NGAL, but not cfDNA, was strongly associated with AKI stages and mortality. Monitoring of cfDNA levels from the first postoperative day might represent a valuable tool to predict late AKI after on-pump surgery.

Abstract
Following strong activation signals, several types of immune cells reportedly release chromatin and granular proteins into the extracellular space, forming DNA traps. This process is especially prominent in neutrophils but also occurs in other innate immune cells such as macrophages, eosinophils, basophils and mast cells. Initial reports demonstrated that extracellular traps belong to the bactericidal and anti-fungal armamentarium of leukocytes, but subsequent studies also linked trap formation to a variety of human diseases. These pathological roles of extracellular DNA traps are now the focus of intensive biomedical research. The type of pathology associated with the release of extracellular DNA traps is mainly determined by the site of trap formation and the way in which these traps are further processed. Targeting the formation of aberrant extracellular DNA traps or promoting their efficient clearance are attractive goals for future therapeutic interventions, but the manifold actions of extracellular DNA traps complicate these approaches.

Abstract
Renal ischemia reperfusion (IR) is a major cause of acute kidney injury with no effective treatment. Chrysin is an anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-cancer agent. However, the effect of chrysin on renal IR injury remains unknown. In this study, sham operation, IR and IR+chrysin group mice were treated with or without renal IR injury. For renal IR, bilateral renal pedicles were clamped for 30 min and then released for 48 h of reperfusion. Blood and kidney samples were collected for analysis. Results demonstrated that chrysin pretreatment remarkably decreased the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen and attenuated morphological abnormalities in renal IR injury. Consistently, tubular cell apoptosis and inflammation were more attenuated in the chrysin pretreatment group compared with the IR group. Chrysin pretreatment decreased the expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 and increased the expression of Bcl-2 in renal IR injury. Furthermore, chrysin administration decreased the mRNA and protein levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6. Furthermore, the IκBα/nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway was more suppressed in the chrysin pretreatment group compared with the IR group. In conclusion, chrysin protects against tubular cell apoptosis and inflammation in renal IR injury.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common among hospitalized patients and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Inflammation is recognized to play an important role in both ischemic and toxic models of AKI. Cisplatin is a widely used and highly effective cancer chemotherapeutic agent but carries the risk of nephrotoxicity. We have used a model of cisplatin-induced AKI to explore the functions of the innate immune response in kidney injury. Several components of innate immunity, such as Toll-like receptor sensing and inflammatory cytokine production, contribute to both ischemic and cisplatin-induced AKI. Importantly, it is the activity of these components in kidney parenchymal cells, rather than immune cells, which mediate AKI. Cellular components of innate immunity, such as neutrophils and dendritic cells, appear to play disparate roles in ischemic vs toxic AKI. Innate immune pathways could be targeted to prevent or treat AKI.

Abstract
Besides assisting the maintenance of blood pressure and sodium homeostasis, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a pivotal role in pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI). The RAS is equipped with two arms i) the pressor arm composed of Angiotensin II (Ang II)/Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)/Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) also called conventional RAS, and ii) the depressor arm consisting of Angiotensin (1-7) (Ang 1-7)/Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/MasR known as non-conventional RAS. Activation of conventional RAS triggers oxidative stress, inflammatory, hypertrophic, apoptotic, and pro-fibrotic signaling cascades which promote AKI. The preclinical and clinical studies have reported beneficial as well as deleterious effects of RAS blockage either by angiotensin receptor blocker or ACE inhibitor in AKI. On the contrary, the depressor arm opposes the conventional RAS, has beneficial effects on the kidney but has been less explored in pathogenesis of AKI. This review focuses on significance of RAS in pathogenesis of AKI and provides better understanding of novel and possible therapeutic approaches to combat AKI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Peptidylarginine deiminase-4 (PAD4) is highly expressed by neutrophils and essential for citrullination occurring during the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps, which have been implicated in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and lupus nephritis (LN). Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PADI4 influence PAD4 expression and functionality. Here, we investigate whether SNPs in PADI4 influence the risk of SLE or LN. METHOD Altogether, 234 SLE patients and 484 controls were genotyped for nine PADI4 SNPs known to alter PAD4 functionality and/or expression, or to be associated with other autoimmune diseases, using an in-house multiplex Luminex assay. All analyses were adjusted for age and gender. RESULTS Heterozygosity for rs1748033, and heterozygosity and homozygosity for rs1635564, were associated with increased occurrence of SLE [odds ratio (OR) 1.55, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.08-2.23; OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.06-2.19; and OR 2.06, 95% CI 1.08-3.93, respectively]. Homozygosity for rs1635564 was also associated with increased occurrence of LN (OR 3.35, 95% CI 1.2-10.97). Notably, gene dose effects of the rs1635564 variant allele were observed for SLE (p = 0.005) and LN (p = 0.01). Carriage of minor alleles of five other SNPs (rs11203366, rs11203367, rs874881, rs2240340, and rs11203368) was associated with increased occurrence of LN and hypertension. CONCLUSION The rs1635564 polymorphism of PADI4 is a candidate risk factor for SLE, particularly with renal involvement. Additional PADI4 polymorphisms also conferred increased risk of LN. Overall, these findings support the notion of PAD4 contributing to the pathogenesis of SLE and LN.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular traps, originally discovered as a mechanism to combat microbial infection, have recently been implicated in tissue damage including acute kidney injury. Raup-Konsavage et al. now present further insights to demonstrate a critical role of neutrophil peptidyl arginine deiminase-4 in the formation of neutrophil extracellular trap, inflammation, and tissue damage in ischemic acute kidney infection. Targeting peptidyl arginine deiminase-4 and/or neutrophil extracellular trap may offer a new therapeutic strategy for acute kidney infection.

Abstract
Renal ischemia reperfusion (IR) is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), and no effective treatment is available to date. In our previous studies, we demonstrated that Tisp40 exacerbates tubular cell apoptosis and tubulointerstitial fibrosis after renal IR injury. However, the role of Tisp40 in renal inflammatory responses and tubular cell proliferation during renal IR injury remains unknown. In this study, Tisp40 knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice were induced with or without renal IR injury. For renal IR, bilateral renal pedicels were exposed and clamped to induce 30 min of ischemia. After 48 h of reperfusion, the kidneys were collected for analyses. Results showed that Tisp40 deficiency attenuates neutrophil and macrophage infiltration after renal IR. Consistently, the protein levels of TNF-α and MCP-1 were markedly decreased, and the phosphorylation levels of IκBα and P65 were inhibited in Tisp40-deficient mice than in WT mice in renal IR injury. In addition, compared with WT mice, Tisp40 deficiency significantly increased the expression levels of proliferative cellular nuclear antigen and phosphorylated Erk1/2 after renal IR injury. In conclusion, Tisp40 deficiency limits renal inflammatory responses and promotes tubular cell proliferation in ischemic AKI.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a serious complication among patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) that is a systemic inflammatory disease with high morbidity and mortality. The pathophysiology of AKI-associated ALI is poorly understood. G-CSF regulates the production and function of neutrophils that mediate lung injury via elastase and other mediators. Here, we used a mouse model of adenine-induced AKI to determine the roles of G-CSF and neutrophil elastase in AKI-associated ALI. We confirmed that ALI was associated with high serum G-CSF levels, and elevated neutrophil elastase activity in the lungs and serum of mice with adenine-induced AKI. Systemic administration of G-CSF-specific neutralizing antibody normalized granulopoiesis, pulmonary neutrophil infiltration, and neutrophil elastase activity, conferring improved lung architecture in mice with adenine-induced AKI. Further studies revealed that macrophages secreted G-CSF upon urea stimulation. Consequently, G-CSF could be a target for new anti-lung injury strategy in patients with AKI.
