Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a sudden and continuous decline in renal function. The drug cisplatin is commonly used as chemotherapy for solid tumors, and cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), which is characterized by acute tubular necrosis and inflammation, frequently occurs in tumor patients. Renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) are severely damaged early in this process and play an important role in renal tubular injury and the recruitment of immune cells. Macrophages are the most common infiltrating immune cells in the kidney and have a significant impact on CI-AKI and subsequent repair. This article reviews the latest research progress on the effects of RTECs and macrophages on CI-AKI and their interactions in AKI to provide a direction for identifying therapeutic targets for treating AKI.

Rosuvastatin and diosmetin inhibited the HSP70/TLR4 /NF-κB p65/NLRP3 signaling pathways and switched macrophage to M2 phenotype in a rat model of acute kidney injury induced by cisplatin. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 171:116151. [PMID: 38262148 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Numerous efforts to manage acute kidney injury (AKI) were unsuccessful because its pathophysiology is still poorly understood. Thus, our research hotspot was to explore the possible renoprotective effects of rosuvastatin (Ros) and diosmetin (D) on macrophage polarization and the role of HSP70/TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB p65/NLRP3/STAT3 signaling in cis-induced AKI and study the activity of D against uropathogenic bacteria. Fifty-four albino male rats were randomized into 9 groups equally: Control, Ros, D20, D40, untreated Cis, and Cis groups cotreated with Ros, D20, D40 and Ros+D40 for 10 days. Our results indicated that Ros and D, in a dose-dependent manner, markedly restored body weight, systolic blood pressure, and renal histological architecture besides significantly upregulated SOD levels, expression of anti-inflammatory CD163 macrophages, arginase1levels, IL-10 levels,STAT3 and PCNA immunoreactivity. Also, they significantly downregulated renal index, serum urea, serum creatinine, serum cystatin c, inflammatory biomarkers (C reactive protein, IL1β & TNF-α), MDA levels, HSP70/TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB p65/NLRP3 expressions, proinflammatory CD68 macrophages and caspase-3 immunoreactivity, resulting in a reversal of cis-induced renal damage. These findings were further confirmed by molecular docking that showed the binding affinity of Ros and D towards TLR4 and NLRP3. Furthermore, D had antibacterial action with a minimum inhibitory concentration ranging from 128 to 256 µg/mL and caused a delay in the growth of the tested isolates, and negatively affected the membrane integrity. In conclusion, Ros and D had antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic properties and switched macrophage from proinflammatory CD68 to anti-inflammatory CD163. Additionally, the targeting of HSP70/TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB p65/NLRP3/STAT3 signals are effective therapeutic strategy in AKI.

Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1755.

Abstract
This article provides a thorough overview of the biomarkers, pathophysiology, and molecular pathways involved in the transition from acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute kidney disease (AKD) to chronic kidney disease (CKD). It categorizes the biomarkers of AKI into stress, damage, and functional markers, highlighting their importance in early detection, prognosis, and clinical applications. This review also highlights the links between renal injury and the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying AKI and AKD, including renal hypoperfusion, sepsis, nephrotoxicity, and immune responses. In addition, various molecules play pivotal roles in inflammation and hypoxia, triggering maladaptive repair, mitochondrial dysfunction, immune system reactions, and the cellular senescence of renal cells. Key signaling pathways, such as Wnt/β-catenin, TGF-β/SMAD, and Hippo/YAP/TAZ, promote fibrosis and impact renal function. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) triggers a cascade leading to renal fibrosis, with aldosterone exacerbating the oxidative stress and cellular changes that promote fibrosis. The clinical evidence suggests that RAS inhibitors may protect against CKD progression, especially post-AKI, though more extensive trials are needed to confirm their full impact.

[PMID: 37962623 PMCID: PMC10786615 DOI: 10.1681/asn.0000000000000261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT To combat both untoward effects of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity in cisplatin-treated patients, two potential therapeutic oral anticancer drugs AZD5438 and dabrafenib, a phase-2 clinical trial protein kinase CDK2 inhibitor and an US Food and Drug Administration-approved drug BRAF inhibitor, respectively, were tested in an established mouse AKI model. Both drugs have previously been shown to protect significantly against cisplatin-induced hearing loss in mice. Each drug ameliorated cisplatin-induced increases in the serum biomarkers BUN, creatinine, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin. Drugs also improved renal histopathology and inflammation, mitigated cell death by pyroptosis and necroptosis, and significantly enhanced overall survival of cisplatin-treated mice. BACKGROUND Cisplatin is an effective chemotherapy agent for a wide variety of solid tumors, but its use is dose-limited by serious side effects, including AKI and hearing loss. There are no US Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs to treat both side effects. Recently, two anticancer oral drugs, AZD5438 and dabrafenib, were identified as protective against cisplatin-induced hearing loss in mice. We hypothesize that similar cell stress and death pathways are activated in kidney and inner ear cells when exposed to cisplatin and tested whether these drugs alleviate cisplatin-induced AKI. METHODS The HK-2 cell line and adult FVB mice were used to measure the protection from cisplatin-induced cell death and AKI by these drugs. Serum markers of kidney injury, BUN, creatinine, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as well as histology of kidneys were analyzed. The levels of markers of kidney cell death, including necroptosis and pyroptosis, pERK, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen, were also examined by Western blotting and immunofluorescence. In addition, CDK2 knockout (KO) mice were used to confirm AZD5438 protective effect is through CDK2 inhibition. RESULTS The drugs reduced cisplatin-induced cell death in the HK-2 cell line and attenuated cisplatin-induced AKI in mice. The drugs reduced serum kidney injury markers, inhibited cell death, and reduced the levels of pERK and proliferating cell nuclear antigen, all of which correlated with prolonged animal survival. CDK2 KO mice were resistant to cisplatin-induced AKI, and AZD5438 conferred no additional protection in the KO mice. CONCLUSIONS Cisplatin-induced damage to the inner ear and kidneys shares similar cellular beneficial responses to AZD5438 and dabrafenib, highlighting the potential therapeutic use of these agents to treat both cisplatin-mediated kidney damage and hearing loss.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Energy-intensive kidney reabsorption processes essential for normal whole-body function are maintained by tubular epithelial cell metabolism. Although tubular metabolism changes markedly following acute kidney injury (AKI), it remains unclear which metabolic alterations are beneficial or detrimental. By analyzing large-scale, publicly available datasets, we observed that AKI consistently leads to downregulation of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC). This investigation aimed to understand the contribution of the tubular MPC to kidney function, metabolism, and acute injury severity. METHODS We generated tubular epithelial cell-specific Mpc1 knockout (MPC TubKO) mice and employed renal function tests, in vivo renal 13C-glucose tracing, mechanistic enzyme activity assays, and tests of injury and survival in an established rhabdomyolysis model of AKI. RESULTS MPC TubKO mice retained normal kidney function, displayed unchanged markers of kidney injury, but exhibited coordinately increased enzyme activities of the pentose phosphate pathway and the glutathione and thioredoxin oxidant defense systems. Following rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI, compared to WT control mice, MPC TubKO mice showed increased glycolysis, decreased kidney injury and oxidative stress markers, and strikingly increased survival. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that decreased renal tubular mitochondrial pyruvate uptake hormetically upregulates oxidant defense systems before AKI and is a beneficial adaptive response after rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI. This raises the possibility of therapeutically modulating the MPC to attenuate AKI severity.

Abstract
CDK4, along with its regulatory subunit, cyclin D, drives the transition from G1 to S phase, during which DNA replication and metabolic activation occur. In this canonical pathway, CDK4 is essentially a transcriptional regulator that acts through phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein (RB) and subsequent activation of the transcription factor E2F, ultimately triggering the expression of genes involved in DNA synthesis and cell cycle progression to S phase. In this review, we focus on the newly reported functions of CDK4, which go beyond direct regulation of the cell cycle. In particular, we describe the extranuclear roles of CDK4, including its roles in the regulation of metabolism, cell fate, cell dynamics and the tumor microenvironment. We describe direct phosphorylation targets of CDK4 and decipher how CDK4 influences these physiological processes in the context of cancer.

Abstract
The widely used chemotherapy cisplatin causes permanent hearing loss in 40%-60% of patients with cancer. One drug, sodium thiosulfate, is approved by the FDA for use in pediatric patients with localized solid tumors for preventing cisplatin-induced hearing loss, but more drugs are desperately needed. Here, we tested dabrafenib, an FDA-approved BRAF kinase inhibitor and anticancer drug, in a clinically relevant multidose cisplatin mouse model. The protective effects of dabrafenib, given orally twice daily with cisplatin, were determined by functional hearing tests and cochlear outer hair cell counts. Toxicity of the drug cotreatment was evaluated, and levels of phosphorylated ERK were measured. A dabrafenib dose of 3 mg/kg BW, twice daily, in mice, was determined to be the minimum effective dose, and it is equivalent to one-tenth of the daily FDA-approved dose for human cancer treatment. The levels of hearing protection acquired, 20-25 dB at the 3 frequencies tested, in both female and male mice, persisted for 4 months after completion of treatments. Moreover, dabrafenib exhibited a good in vivo therapeutic index (> 25), protected hearing in 2 mouse strains, and diminished cisplatin-induced weight loss. This study demonstrates that dabrafenib is a promising candidate drug for protection from cisplatin-induced hearing loss.

Abstract
PURPOSE Previous work identified rare variants in DSTYK associated with human congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT). Here, we present a series of mouse and human studies to clarify the association, penetrance, and expressivity of DSTYK variants. METHODS We phenotypically characterized Dstyk knockout mice of 3 separate inbred backgrounds and re-analyzed the original family segregating the DSTYK c.654+1G>A splice-site variant (referred to as "SSV" below). DSTYK loss of function (LOF) and SSVs were annotated in individuals with CAKUT, epilepsy, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis vs controls. A phenome-wide association study analysis was also performed using United Kingdom Biobank (UKBB) data. RESULTS Results demonstrate ∼20% to 25% penetrance of obstructive uropathy, at least, in C57BL/6J and FVB/NJ Dstyk-/- mice. Phenotypic penetrance increased to ∼40% in C3H/HeJ mutants, with mild-to-moderate severity. Re-analysis of the original family segregating the rare SSV showed low penetrance (43.8%) and no alternative genetic causes for CAKUT. LOF DSTYK variants burden showed significant excess for CAKUT and epilepsy vs controls and an exploratory phenome-wide association study supported association with neurological disorders. CONCLUSION These data support causality for DSTYK LOF variants and highlights the need for large-scale sequencing studies (here >200,000 cases) to accurately assess causality for genes and variants to lowly penetrant traits with common population prevalence.

Abstract
Inflammation is a crucial pathological feature in cancers and kidney diseases, playing a significant role in disease progression. Cyclin-dependent kinases CDK4 and CDK6 not only contribute to cell cycle progression but also participate in cell metabolism, immunogenicity and anti-tumor immune responses. Recently, CDK4/6 inhibitors have gained approval for investigational treatment of breast cancer and various other tumors. Kidney diseases and cancers commonly exhibit characteristic pathological features, such as the involvement of inflammatory cells and persistent chronic inflammation. Remarkably, CDK4/6 inhibitors have demonstrated impressive efficacy in treating non-cancerous conditions, including certain kidney diseases. Current studies have identified the renoprotective effect of CDK4/6 inhibitors, presenting a novel idea and potential direction for treating kidney diseases in the future. In this review, we briefly reviewed the cell cycle in mammals and the role of CDK4/6 in regulating it. We then provided an introduction to CDK4/6 inhibitors and their use in cancer treatment. Additionally, we emphasized the importance of these inhibitors in the treatment of kidney diseases. Collectively, growing evidence demonstrates that targeting CDK4 and CDK6 through CDK4/6 inhibitors might have therapeutic benefits in various cancers and kidney diseases and should be further explored in the future.

Role of Mouse Organic Cation Transporter 2 for Nephro- and Peripheral Neurotoxicity Induced by Chemotherapeutic Treatment with Cisplatin. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:11486. [PMID: 37511245 PMCID: PMC10380567 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241411486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Cisplatin (CDDP) is an efficient chemotherapeutic agent broadly used to treat solid cancers. Chemotherapy with CDDP can cause significant unwanted side effects such as renal toxicity and peripheral neurotoxicity. CDDP is a substrate of organic cation transporters (OCT), transporters that are highly expressed in renal tissue. Therefore, CDDP uptake by OCT may play a role in causing unwanted toxicities of CDDP anticancer treatment. In this study, the contribution of the mouse OCT2 (mOCT2) to CDDP nephro- and peripheral neurotoxicity was investigated by comparing the effects of cyclic treatment with low doses of CDDP on renal and neurological functions in wild-type (WT) mice and mice with genetic deletion of OCT2 (OCT2-/- mice). This CDDP treatment protocol caused significant impairment of kidneys and peripherical neurological functions in WT mice. These effects were significantly reduced in OCT2-/- mice, however, less profoundly than what was previously measured in mice with genetic deletion of both OCT1 and 2 (OCT1-2-/- mice). Comparing the apparent affinities (IC50) of mOCT1 and mOCT2 for CDDP, the mOCT1 displayed a higher affinity for CDDP than the mOCT2 (IC50: 9 and 558 µM, respectively). Also, cellular toxicity induced by incubation with 100 µM CDDP was more pronounced in cells stably expressing mOCT1 than in cells expressing mOCT2. Therefore, in mice, CDDP uptake by both OCT1 and 2 contributes to the development of CDDP undesired side effects. OCT seem to be suitable targets for establishing treatment protocols aimed at decreasing unwanted CDDP toxicity and improving anticancer treatment with CDDP.

Abstract
Transcriptional profiling studies have identified several protective genes upregulated in tubular epithelial cells during acute kidney injury (AKI). Identifying upstream transcriptional regulators could lead to the development of therapeutic strategies augmenting the repair processes. SOX9 is a transcription factor controlling cell-fate during embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis in multiple organs including the kidneys. SOX9 expression is low in adult kidneys; however, stress conditions can trigger its transcriptional upregulation in tubular epithelial cells. SOX9 plays a protective role during the early phase of AKI and facilitates repair during the recovery phase. To identify the upstream transcriptional regulators that drive SOX9 upregulation in tubular epithelial cells, we used an unbiased transcription factor screening approach. Preliminary screening and validation studies show that zinc finger protein 24 (ZFP24) governs SOX9 upregulation in tubular epithelial cells. ZFP24, a Cys2-His2 (C2H2) zinc finger protein, is essential for oligodendrocyte maturation and myelination; however, its role in the kidneys or in SOX9 regulation remains unknown. Here, we found that tubular epithelial ZFP24 gene ablation exacerbated ischemia, rhabdomyolysis, and cisplatin-associated AKI. Importantly, ZFP24 gene deletion resulted in suppression of SOX9 upregulation in injured tubular epithelial cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and promoter luciferase assays confirmed that ZFP24 bound to a specific site in both murine and human SOX9 promoters. Importantly, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutation in the ZFP24 binding site in the SOX9 promoter in vivo led to suppression of SOX9 upregulation during AKI. Thus, our findings identify ZFP24 as a critical stress-responsive transcription factor protecting tubular epithelial cells through SOX9 upregulation.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is estimated to affect 10-14% of global population. Kidney fibrosis, characterized by excessive extracellular matrix deposition leading to scarring, is a hallmark manifestation in different progressive CKD; However, at present no antifibrotic therapies against CKD exist. Kidney fibrosis is identified by tubule atrophy, interstitial chronic inflammation and fibrogenesis, glomerulosclerosis, and vascular rarefaction. Fibrotic niche, where organ fibrosis initiates, is a complex interplay between injured parenchyma (like tubular cells) and multiple non-parenchymal cell lineages (immune and mesenchymal cells) located spatially within scarring areas. Although the mechanisms of kidney fibrosis are complicated due to the kinds of cells involved, with the help of single-cell technology, many key questions have been explored, such as what kind of renal tubules are profibrotic, where myofibroblasts originate, which immune cells are involved, and how cells communicate with each other. In addition, genetics and epigenetics are deeper mechanisms that regulate kidney fibrosis. And the reversible nature of epigenetic changes including DNA methylation, RNA interference, and chromatin remodeling, gives an opportunity to stop or reverse kidney fibrosis by therapeutic strategies. More marketed (e.g., RAS blockage, SGLT2 inhibitors) have been developed to delay CKD progression in recent years. Furthermore, a better understanding of renal fibrosis is also favored to discover biomarkers of fibrotic injury. In the review, we update recent advances in the mechanism of renal fibrosis and summarize novel biomarkers and antifibrotic treatment for CKD.

Abstract
Nephrotoxicity is a major side effect of cisplatin, a widely used cancer therapy drug. However, the mechanism of cisplatin nephrotoxicity remains unclear and no effective kidney protective strategies are available. Here, we report the induction of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) in both in vitro cell culture and in vivo mouse models of cisplatin nephrotoxicity. Notably, PFKFB3 was mainly induced in the nucleus of kidney tubular cells, suggesting a novel function other than its canonical role in glycolysis. Both pharmacological inhibition and genetic silencing of PFKFB3 led to the suppression of cisplatin-induced apoptosis in cultured renal proximal tubular cells (RPTCs). Moreover, cisplatin-induced kidney injury or nephrotoxicity was ameliorated in renal proximal tubule-specific PFKFB3 knockout mice. Mechanistically, we demonstrated the interaction of PFKFB3 with cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) during cisplatin treatment, resulting in CDK4 activation and consequent phosphorylation and inactivation of retinoblastoma tumor suppressor (Rb). Inhibition of CDK4 reduced cisplatin-induced apoptosis in RPTCs and kidney injury in mice. Collectively, this study unveils a novel pathological role of PFKFB3 in cisplatin nephrotoxicity through the activation of the CDK4/Rb pathway, suggesting a new kidney protective strategy for cancer patients by blocking PFKFB3.

Prostaglandin E2 prevents radiotherapy-induced alopecia by attenuating transit amplifying cell apoptosis through promoting G1 arrest. J Dermatol Sci 2023; 109:117-126.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Growing hair follicles (HFs) harbor actively dividing transit amplifying cells (TACs), rendering them highly sensitive to radiotherapy (RT). Clinically, there is still a lack of treatment options for radiotherapy-induced alopecia (RIA). OBJECTIVE Our present study aimed to investigated the effect and mechanism of local prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) treatment in RIA prevention. METHODS We compared the response of growing HFs to radiation with and without local PGE2 pretreatment in a mouse model in vivo. The effect of PGE2 on the cell cycle was determined in cultured HF cells from fluorescent ubiquitination-based cell cycle indicator mice. We also compared the protective effects of PGE2 and a cyclin-dependent kinases 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor against RIA. RESULTS The local cutaneous PGE2 injection reduced RIA by enhancing HF self-repair. Mechanistically, PGE2 did not activate HF stem cells, but it preserved more TACs for regenerative attempts. Pretreatment of PGE2 lessened radiosensitivity of TACs by transiently arresting them in the G1 phase, thereby reducing TAC apoptosis and mitigating HF dystrophy. The preservation of more TACs accelerated HF self-repair and bypassed RT-induced premature termination of anagen. Promoting G1 arrest by systemic administration of palbociclib isethionate (PD0332991), a CDK4/6 inhibitor, offered a similar protective effect against RT. CONCLUSIONS Locally administered PGE2 protects HF TACs from RT by transiently inducing G1 arrest, and the regeneration of HF structures lost from RT is accelerated to resume anagen growth, thus bypassing the long downtime of hair loss. PGE2 has the potential to be repurposed as a local preventive treatment for RIA.

Abstract
Energy-intensive kidney reabsorption processes essential for normal whole-body function are maintained by tubular epithelial cell metabolism. Tubular metabolism changes markedly following acute kidney injury (AKI), but which changes are adaptive versus maladaptive remain poorly understood. In publicly available data sets, we noticed a consistent downregulation of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) after AKI, which we experimentally confirmed. To test the functional consequences of MPC downregulation, we generated novel tubular epithelial cell-specific Mpc1 knockout (MPC TubKO) mice. 13C-glucose tracing, steady-state metabolomic profiling, and enzymatic activity assays revealed that MPC TubKO coordinately increased activities of the pentose phosphate pathway and the glutathione and thioredoxin oxidant defense systems. Following rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI, MPC TubKO decreased markers of kidney injury and oxidative damage and strikingly increased survival. Our findings suggest that decreased mitochondrial pyruvate uptake is a central adaptive response following AKI and raise the possibility of therapeutically modulating the MPC to attenuate AKI severity.

Abstract
Cisplatin is an effective chemotherapeutic agent for various solid tumours, but its use is limited by adverse effects in normal tissues. In particular, cisplatin is nephrotoxic and can cause acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. Preclinical studies have provided insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of cisplatin nephrotoxicity, which involve intracellular stresses including DNA damage, mitochondrial pathology, oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Stress responses, including autophagy, cell-cycle arrest, senescence, apoptosis, programmed necrosis and inflammation have key roles in the pathogenesis of cisplatin nephrotoxicity. In addition, emerging evidence suggests a contribution of epigenetic changes to cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. Further research is needed to determine how these pathways are integrated and to identify the cell type-specific roles of critical molecules involved in regulated necrosis, inflammation and epigenetic modifications in cisplatin nephrotoxicity. A number of potential therapeutic targets for cisplatin nephrotoxicity have been identified. However, the effects of renoprotective strategies on the efficacy of cisplatin chemotherapy needs to be thoroughly evaluated. Further research using tumour-bearing animals, multi-omics and genome-wide association studies will enable a comprehensive understanding of the complex cellular and molecular mechanisms of cisplatin nephrotoxicity and potentially lead to the identification of specific targets to protect the kidney without compromising the chemotherapeutic efficacy of cisplatin.

Abstract
Abnormal CDK4/6-Rb-E2F signal transduction is a common finding in tumors and is a driving factor for the excessive proliferation of various tumor cells. PD-0332991, a highly specific, small molecule inhibitor for CDK4 and 6, has been shown to inhibit tumor growth by abrogating the phosphorylating capacity of CDK4/6 and suppressing Rb phosphorylation. It has been promoted for the treatment of breast cancer and potentially for other tumor types such as liver cancers, lung cancers and sarcomas. Due to the risk of monotherapy resistance, PD-0332991 is commonly used in combination with other drugs. Such combination treatments have proved able to inhibit tumor proliferation more effectively, induce stronger senescence and apoptosis, and enhance the efficiency of immunotherapy. Therefore, tumor cells with senescence induced by PD-0332991 are now used as ideal screening tools of cytolytic drugs with more efficient and thorough anti-tumor properties. With more extensive understandings about the branching points between senescence and apoptosis, it is possible to refine the dosage of PD-0332991. Better characterization of resistant cells, of inhibitors and of adverse effects such as leukopenia are needed to overcome obstacles in the use of PD-0332991. In this review of PD-0332991 research, we hope to provide guidance of transitions from laboratory findings to clinical applications of PD-0332991 and to facilitate PD-0332991-based multi-inhibitor combination therapies for various tumors.

Chen YL, Li HK, Wang L, Chen JW, Ma X. No safe renal warm ischemia time-The molecular network characteristics and pathological features of mild to severe ischemia reperfusion kidney injury. Front Mol Biosci 2022; 9:1006917. [PMID: 36465563 PMCID: PMC9709142 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2022.1006917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 07/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI) has always been a hot and difficult research topic in the field of renal diseases. This study aims to illustrate the safe warm ischemia time of kidney and the molecular network characteristics and pathological features of mild to severe ischemia reperfusion kidney injury. We established varying degrees of renal injury due to different ischemia time (0 min, 16 min, 18 min, 20 min, 22 min, 24 min, 26 min, 28 min, and 30 min) on unilateral (left kidney) ischemia-reperfusion injury and contralateral (right kidney) resection (uIRIx) mouse model. Mice were sacrificed 24 h after uIRIx, blood samples were harvested to detect serum creatinine (Scr), and kidney tissue samples were harvested to perform Periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS) staining and RNA-Seq. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identificated, time-dependent gene expression patterns and functional enrichment analysis were further performed. Finally, qPCR was performed to validated RNA-Seq results. Our results indicated that there was no absolute safe renal warm ischemia time, and every minute of ischemia increases kidney damage. Warm ischemia 26min or above in mice makes severe kidney injury, renal pathology and SCr were both significantly changed. Warm ischemia between 18 and 26 min makes mild kidney injury, with changes in pathology and renal molecular expression, while SCr did not change. No obvious pathological changes but significant differences in molecular expression were found less than 16min warm ischemia. There are two key time intervals in the process of renal ischemia injury, 0 min-16 min (short-term) and 26 min-28 min (long-term). Gene expression of immune-related pathways were most significantly down-regulated in short-term ischemia, while metabolism-related pathways were the mainly enriched pathway in long-term ischemia. Taken together, this study provides novel insights into safe renal artery occlusion time in partial nephrectomy, and is of great value for elucidating molecular network characteristics and pathological features of mild to severe ischemia reperfusion kidney injury, and key genes related to metabolism and immune found in this study also provide potential diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers for AKI.

VNN1 contributes to the acute kidney injury-chronic kidney disease transition by promoting cellular senescence via affecting RB1 expression. FASEB J 2022; 36:e22472.

Abstract
The mechanisms underlying acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression include interstitial inflammation, cellular senescence, and oxidative stress (OS). Although vanin-1 (VNN1) plays an important role in OS, its contribution to the AKI-CKD transition remains unknown. Here, we explored the roles and mechanisms of VNN1 in the progression of the AKI-CKD transition. We observed that VNN1 expression was upregulated after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and high VNN1 expression levels were associated with poor renal repair after I/R injury. In VNN1 knockout (KO) mice, recovery of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels after I/R injury was accelerated and renal fibrosis was inhibited after severe I/R injury. Furthermore, in VNN1 KO mice, senescence of renal tubular cells was inhibited after severe I/R injury, as assessed by P16 expression and SA-β-Gal assays. However, our results also revealed that VNN1 KO renal tubular cells did not resist senescence when OS was blocked. To elucidate the mechanism underlying VNN1-mediated regulation of senescence during the AKI-CKD transition, retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) was identified as a potential target. Our results suggest that the reduced senescence in VNN1 KO renal tubular cells was caused by suppressed RB1 expression and phosphorylation. Collectively, our results unveil a novel molecular mechanism by which VNN1 promotes AKI-CKD transition via inducing senescence of renal tubular cells by activating RB1 expression and phosphorylation after severe renal injury. The present study proposes a new strategy for designing therapies wherein VNN1 can be targeted to obstruct the AKI-CKD transition.

Abstract
Dofetilide is a rapid delayed rectifier potassium current inhibitor widely used to prevent the recurrence of atrial fibrillation and flutter. The clinical use of this drug is associated with increases in QTc interval, which predispose patients to ventricular cardiac arrhythmias. The mechanisms involved in the disposition of dofetilide, including its movement in and out of cardiomyocytes, remain unknown. Using a xenobiotic transporter screen, we identified MATE1 (SLC47A1) as a transporter of dofetilide and found that genetic knockout or pharmacological inhibition of MATE1 in mice was associated with enhanced retention of dofetilide in cardiomyocytes and increased QTc prolongation. The urinary excretion of dofetilide was also dependent on the MATE1 genotype, and we found that this transport mechanism provides a mechanistic basis for previously recorded drug-drug interactions of dofetilide with various contraindicated drugs, including bictegravir, cimetidine, ketoconazole, and verapamil. The translational significance of these observations was examined with a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model that adequately predicted the drug-drug interaction liabilities in humans. These findings support the thesis that MATE1 serves a conserved cardioprotective role by restricting excessive cellular accumulation and warrant caution against the concurrent administration of potent MATE1 inhibitors and cardiotoxic substrates with a narrow therapeutic window.

Abstract
Acute and chronic kidney injuries induce increased cell cycle progression in renal tubules. While increased cell cycle progression promotes repair after acute injury, the role of ongoing tubular cell cycle progression in chronic kidney disease is unknown. Two weeks after initiation of chronic kidney disease, we blocked cell cycle progression at G1/S phase by using an FDA-approved, selective inhibitor of CDK4/6. Blocking CDK4/6 improved renal function and reduced tubular injury and fibrosis in 2 murine models of chronic kidney disease. However, selective deletion of cyclin D1, which complexes with CDK4/6 to promote cell cycle progression, paradoxically increased tubular injury. Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) for CCND1 (cyclin D1) and the CDK4/6 inhibitor CDKN2B were associated with eGFR in genome-wide association studies. Consistent with the preclinical studies, reduced expression of CDKN2B correlated with lower eGFR values, and higher levels of CCND1 correlated with higher eGFR values. CDK4/6 inhibition promoted tubular cell survival, in part, through a STAT3/IL-1β pathway and was dependent upon on its effects on the cell cycle. Our data challenge the paradigm that tubular cell cycle progression is beneficial in the context of chronic kidney injury. Unlike the reparative role of cell cycle progression following acute kidney injury, these data suggest that blocking cell cycle progression by inhibiting CDK4/6, but not cyclin D1, protects against chronic kidney injury.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and CDK6 are critical mediators of cellular transition into S phase and are important for the initiation, growth and survival of many cancer types. Pharmacological inhibitors of CDK4/6 have rapidly become a new standard of care for patients with advanced hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. As expected, CDK4/6 inhibitors arrest sensitive tumour cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. However, the effects of CDK4/6 inhibition are far more wide-reaching. New insights into their mechanisms of action have triggered identification of new therapeutic opportunities, including the development of novel combination regimens, expanded application to a broader range of cancers and use as supportive care to ameliorate the toxic effects of other therapies. Exploring these new opportunities in the clinic is an urgent priority, which in many cases has not been adequately addressed. Here, we provide a framework for conceptualizing the activity of CDK4/6 inhibitors in cancer and explain how this framework might shape the future clinical development of these agents. We also discuss the biological underpinnings of CDK4/6 inhibitor resistance, an increasingly common challenge in clinical oncology.

Abstract
The taxane family of compounds, including Taxol/paclitaxel and Taxotere/docetaxel, are surprisingly successful drugs used in combination or alone for the treatment of most major solid tumors, especially metastatic cancer. The drugs are commonly used in regimen with other agents (often platinum drugs) as frontline treatment, or used as a single agent in a dose dense regimen for recurrent cancer. The major side effects of taxanes are peripheral neuropathy, alopecia, and neutropenia, which are grave burden for patients and limit the full potential of the taxane drugs. Especially in the current treatment protocol for peripheral neuropathy, taxane dosage is reduced once the symptoms present, resulting in the loss of full or optimal cancer killing activity. Substantial efforts have been made to address the problem of cytotoxic side effects of taxanes, though strategies remain very limited. Following administration of the taxane compound by infusion, taxane binds to cellular microtubules and is sequestered within the cells for several days. Taxane stabilizes and interferes with microtubule function, leading to ultimate death of cancer cells, but also damages hair follicles, peripheral neurons, and hemopoietic stem cells. Currently, cryo-treatment is practiced to limit exposure and side effects of the drug during infusion, though the effectiveness is uncertain or limited. A recent laboratory finding may provide a new strategy to counter taxane cytotoxicity, that a brief exposure to low density ultrasound waves was sufficient to eliminate paclitaxel cytotoxicity cells in culture by transiently breaking microtubule filaments, which were then relocated to lysosomes for disposal. Thus, ultrasonic force to break rigid microtubules is an effective solution to counter taxane cytotoxicity. The discovery and concept of low intensity ultrasound as an antidote may have the potential to provide a practical strategy to counter paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy and alopecia that resulted from chemotherapy. Taxanes are a class of important drugs used in chemotherapy to treat several major cancers. This article reviews a new laboratory discovery that ultrasound can be used as an antidote for the peripheral cytotoxicity of taxane drugs and discusses the potential development and application of low intensity ultrasound to prevent side effects in chemotherapeutic treatment of cancer patients.

Elevated Urinary Tissue Inhibitor Of Metalloproteinase-2 And Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-7 Predict Drug-Induced Acute Kidney Injury. Curr Drug Metab 2022; 23:223-232. [PMID: 35469565 DOI: 10.2174/1389200223666220425111931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2021] [Revised: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 01/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP2) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-7 (IGFBP7) predict severe acute kidney injury (AKI) in critical illness. Earlier but subtle elevation of either biomarker from nephrotoxicity may predict drug-induced AKI. METHODS A prospective study involving serial urine collection in patients treated with vancomycin, aminoglycosides, amphotericin, foscarnet, or calcineurin inhibitors was performed. Urinary TIMP2 and IGFBP7, absolute levels, normalized with urine creatinine were examined in days leading to AKI onset by KDIGO criteria in cases, or at final day of nephrotoxic therapy in non-AKI controls who were matched for age, baseline kidney function and nephrotoxic exposure. RESULTS Urinary biomarker analyses were performed in 21 AKI patients and 28 non-AKI matched-controls; both groups had comparable baseline kidney function and duration of nephrotoxic drug therapy. Significantly higher absolute, normalized, and composite levels of TIMP2 and IGFBP7 were observed in AKI cases versus controls as early as 2-3 days before AKI onset (all P<0.05); >70% of patients with corresponding levels above 75th percentile developed AKI. Normalized TIMP2 at 2-3 days pre-AKI predicted AKI with the highest average AUROC of 0.81, followed by that of composite [TIMP2]x[IGFBP7] (0.78) after cross-validation. [TIMP2]x[IGFBP7] >0.01 (ng/mL)2 /1000 predicted AKI with a sensitivity of 79% and specificity of 60%. CONCLUSION Elevated urinary TIMP2 or IGFBP7 predicts drug-induced AKI with a lead-time of 2-3 days; an opportune time for interventions to reduce nephrotoxicity.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 4-related tubular epithelial cell proliferation is regulated by Paired box gene 2 in kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury. Kidney Int 2022; 102:45-57. [PMID: 35483529 DOI: 10.1016/j.kint.2022.03.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2021] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Paired box 2 (Pax2) is a transcription factor essential for kidney development and is reactivated in proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) during recovery from kidney injury. However, the role of Pax2 in this process is still unknown. Here the role of Pax2 reactivation during injury was examined in the proliferation of PTECs using an ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) mouse model. Kidney proximal tubule-specific Pax2 conditional knockout mice were generated by mating kidney androgen-regulated protein-Cre and Pax2 flox mice. The degree of cell proliferation and fibrosis was assessed and a Pax2 inhibitor (EG1) was used to evaluate the role of Pax2 in the hypoxic condition of cultured PTECs (O2 5%, 24 hours). The number of Pax2-positive cells and Pax2 mRNA increased after IRI. Sirius red staining indicated that the area of interstitial fibrosis was significantly larger in knockout mice 14 days after IRI. The number of Ki-67-positive cells (an index of proliferation) was significantly lower in knockout than in wild-type mice after IRI, whereas the number of TUNEL-positive cells (an index of apoptotic cells) was significantly higher in knockout mice four days after IRI. Expression analyses of cell cycle-related genes showed that cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) was significantly less expressed in the Pax2 knockout mice. In vitro data showed that the increase in CDK4 mRNA and protein expression induced by hypoxia was attenuated by EG1. Thus, Pax2 reactivation may be involved in PTEC proliferation by activating CDK4, thereby limiting kidney fibrosis.

Therapeutic effect of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor on dermal fibrosis in murine models of systemic sclerosis. Arthritis Rheumatol 2021; 74:860-870. [PMID: 34882985 DOI: 10.1002/art.42042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2021] [Revised: 10/18/2021] [Accepted: 12/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Histology of systemic sclerosis (SSc) includes an increased number of myofibroblasts, where transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) plays a crucial role to promote dermal fibrosis. The objectives of this study were to examine whether the inhibition of cell cycle with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor suppress fibroblast proliferation and the differentiation into myofibroblasts, and the therapeutic effect of a CDK4/6 inhibitor on dermal fibrosis in murine models of SSc in monotherapy or in combination with TGF-β receptor inhibitor (TGFβRI). METHODS SSc fibroblasts were cultured in the presence or absence of TGF-β. Effects of palbociclib (CDKI), a CDK4/6 inhibitor, on fibroblast proliferation and TGF-β-induced differentiation into myofibroblasts were examined with BrdU uptake, immunofluorescence, and immunoblotting. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl)- and bleomycin-induced dermal fibrosis models were used to study the effect of CDKI on dermal fibrosis in monotherapy or in combination with galunisertib, a TGFβRI. RESULTS CDKI suppressed the proliferation of SSc fibroblasts and their TGF-β-induced differentiation into myofibroblast without inhibiting canonical and non-canonical TGF-β signals. Treatment of dermal fibrosis models with CDKI decreased dermal thickness and collagen content, as well as fibroblast proliferation and myofibroblast number. The combination therapy with CDKI and TGFβRI exerted additive anti-fibrotic effects. Mechanistically, CDKI suppressed the expression of cellular communication network (CCN) 2 and cadherin-11 important for fibrosis. CONCLUSION We demonstrated the therapeutic effect of CDKI on dermal fibrosis in monotherapy or in combination with TGFβRI. CDKI should be a novel agent for the treatment of SSc, which may be used with TGFβRI to increase the efficacy.

Abstract
The membrane transport of many cationic prescription drugs depends on facilitated transport by organic cation transporters of which several members, including OCT2 (SLC22A2), are sensitive to inhibition by select tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). We hypothesized that TKIs may differentially interact with the renal transporter MATE1 (SLC47A1) and influence the elimination and toxicity of the MATE1 substrate oxaliplatin. Interactions with FDA-approved TKIs were evaluated in transfected HEK293 cells, and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies were performed in wild-type, MATE1-deficient, and OCT2/MATE1-deficient mice. Of 57 TKIs evaluated, 37 potently inhibited MATE1 function by >80% through a non-competitive, reversible, substrate-independent mechanism. The urinary excretion of oxaliplatin was reduced by about 2-fold in mice with a deficiency of MATE1 or both OCT2 and MATE1 (p < 0.05), without impacting markers of acute renal injury. In addition, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of MATE1 did not significantly alter plasma levels of oxaliplatin, suggesting that MATE1 inhibitors are unlikely to influence the safety or drug-drug interaction liability of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Background Ribociclib, one of the cyclin‐dependent kinases (CDK) 4 and 6 inhibitors, in combination with endocrine therapies has been approved in the treatment of hormonal receptor positive, HER‐2 negative metastatic breast cancer worldwide. Long‐term usage of ribociclib with concomitant drugs, potential drug–drug interaction may develop which can limit the therapeutic value of CDK4/6 inhibitor. Case A 62‐year‐old with history of non‐insulin dependent diabetic, dyslipidemia, and essential hypertension was diagnosed with HR‐positive, HER‐2 negative metastatic breast cancer and treated with fulvestrant plus ribociclib. Four weeks after administration, elevated serum creatinine was observed, and then severe lactic acidosis with acute respiratory failure was subsequently reported. Ribociclib and fulvestrant were temporarily discontinued. Three days after renal replacement therapy, her clinical was stabilized. Combination ribociclib with metformin resulted in high plasma metformin levels and dangerous consequences. Hence, special precaution should be considered during concomitant treatment with sensitive transporter substrates. Conclusion Metformin associated lactic acidosis may potentially occur after combination with ribocilib, an uncommon but lethal complication from the interaction of these drugs, especially in patients who had preexisting renal impairment.

Abstract
Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are inhibitors of the cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 approved for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. In this review, we provide an overview of the available clinical pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of these novel drugs, summarize the results of food-effect and drug-drug interaction studies, and highlight exposure-response and exposure-toxicity relationships. All three drugs exhibit a large inter-individual variability in exposure (coefficient of variation range 40-95% for minimum plasma concentration), are extensively metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4, and have their brain penetration limited by efflux transporters. Abemaciclib has three active metabolites with similar potency that are clinically relevant (i.e., M2, M20, M18), whereas the metabolites of palbociclib and ribociclib are not of clinical significance. Pharmacokinetic exposure increases in a dose-proportional manner for palbociclib, whereas exposure increases under- and over-proportionally with an increasing dose for abemaciclib and ribociclib, respectively. High exposure is associated with an increased risk of neutropenia, and for ribociclib also to corrected QT prolongation. For abemaciclib, a clear exposure-efficacy relationship has been described, while for palbociclib and ribociclib exposure-response analyses remain inconclusive. Future studies are needed to address exposure-efficacy relationships to further improve dosing.

Abstract
A multitude of disease and therapy related factors drive the frequent development of kidney disorders in cancer patients. Along with chemotherapy, the newer targeted therapeutics can also cause kidney dysfunction through on and off-target mechanisms. Interestingly, among the small molecule inhibitors approved for the treatment of cancers that harbor BRAF-kinase activating mutations, vemurafenib can trigger tubular damage and acute kidney injury. BRAF is a proto-oncogene involved in cell growth. To investigate the underlying mechanisms, we developed cell culture and mouse models of vemurafenib kidney toxicity. At clinically relevant concentrations vemurafenib induces cell-death in transformed and primary mouse and human kidney tubular epithelial cells. In mice, two weeks of daily vemurafenib treatment causes moderate acute kidney injury with histopathological characteristics of kidney tubular epithelial cells injury. Importantly, kidney tubular epithelial cell-specific BRAF gene deletion did not influence kidney function under normal conditions or alter the severity of vemurafenib-associated kidney impairment. Instead, we found that inhibition of ferrochelatase, an enzyme involved in heme biosynthesis contributes to vemurafenib kidney toxicity. Ferrochelatase overexpression protected kidney tubular epithelial cells and conversely ferrochelatase knockdown increased the sensitivity to vemurafenib-induced kidney toxicity. Thus, our studies suggest that vemurafenib-associated kidney tubular epithelial cell dysfunction and kidney toxicity is BRAF-independent and caused, in part, by off-target ferrochelatase inhibition.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a platinum-based drug which remains among the most efficacious anticancer treatment options. Unfortunately, use of cisplatin is hindered by dose-limiting toxicities, including irreversible hearing loss, which can grossly affect patient quality of life. Cisplatin-induced ototoxicity is the result of cochlear hair cell damage through a mechanism that is poorly understood. However, cisplatin cytotoxicity is reliant on intracellular accumulation, a process that is largely dependent on the presence of particular membrane transporters. This review will provide an update on our current understanding of the various transporters known to be involved in the disposition and cytotoxicity of platinum drugs or their metabolites, as well as their role in mediating cisplatin-induced hearing loss. We also provide a summary of the successes and opportunities in therapeutically targeting membrane transporters to alleviate platinum-induced hearing loss. Moreover, we describe how this approach could be used to reduce the severity or onset of other adverse events associated with exposure to various forms of platinum drugs, without diminishing anti-tumor efficacy. Significance Statement Cisplatin-induced hearing loss is a dose limiting and irreversible adverse event with no current preventative or curative treatment measures. Pharmacological targeting of membrane transporters that regulate platinum uptake into cochlear hair cells, if conducted appropriately, may alleviate this devastating side effect and could be applied to alleviate other platinum-induced toxicities.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI), defined as a rapid decrease in glomerular filtration rate, is a common and devastating pathologic condition. AKI is associated with significant morbidity and subsequent chronic kidney disease (CKD) development. Regardless of the initial insult, CKD progression after AKI involves multiple types of cells, including proximal tubular cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells. Although the mechanisms underlying this AKI to CKD progression have been investigated extensively over the past decade, therapeutic strategies still are lacking. One of the reasons for this stems from the fact that AKI and its progression toward CKD is multifactorial and variable because it is dependent on patient background. In this review, we describe the current understanding of AKI and its maladaptive repair with a focus on proximal tubules and resident fibroblasts. Subsequently, we discuss the unique pathophysiology of AKI in the elderly, highlighting our recent finding of age-dependent tertiary lymphoid tissues.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Among females, breast cancer is the most common type of cancer. Hormon receptor positive (HR+) subtype constitutes 75% of the diagnosed breast cancers. Combination of the cyclin D-cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor and endocrine therapy significantly improves overall survival and progression-free survival. Ribociclib is an oral CDK 4/6 inhibitor and some adverse effects are identified. According to MONALEESA 2-3-7 studies, no adverse effect (AE) were reported due to grade 3 or 4 acute kidney injury (AKI) that caused treatment discontinuation. CASE REPORT We report a ribociclib-induced grade 3 AKI in an elderly woman who was treated for metastatic breast cancer. During first cycle of therapy, she was admitted to the oncology clinic with diagnosis of AKI.Management and outcome: Ribociclib treatment was discontinued and secondary causes of AKI were excluded. During the follow-up, kidney function values returned to the normal range spontaneously. Ribociclib treatment was re-initiated by reducing the dose (400 mg daily). Despite dose reduction; grade 3 AKI recurred when ribociclib was re-initiated and the drug was permanently discontinued. DISCUSSION According to MONALEESA 2-3-7 studies; no AE were reported due to grade 3 or 4 AKI. Despite these studies, the FDA reported that 20% of patients with ribociclib + letrozole combination therapy may have any stage elevation of creatinine. Ribociclib induced creatinine elevations are generally mild (grade 1-2) and can be managed by dose reduction or close monitoring of creatinine levels. We report the first case of grade 3 AKI that caused treatment discontinuation following administration of ribociclib.

Abstract
Various cellular insults and injury to renal epithelial cells stimulate repair mechanisms to adapt and restore the organ homeostasis. Renal tubular epithelial cells are endowed with regenerative capacity, which allows for a restoration of nephron function after acute kidney injury. However, recent evidence indicates that the repair is often incomplete, leading to maladaptive responses that promote the progression to chronic kidney disease. The dysregulated cell cycle and proliferation is also a key feature of renal tubular epithelial cells in polycystic kidney disease and HIV-associated nephropathy. Therefore, in this review, we provide an overview of cell cycle regulation and the consequences of dysregulated cell proliferation in acute kidney injury, polycystic kidney disease, and HIV-associated nephropathy. An increased understanding of these processes may help define better targets for kidney repair and combat chronic kidney disease progression.

Abstract
Regulated cell death (RCD), distinct from accidental cell death, refers to a process of well-controlled programmed cell death with well-defined pathological mechanisms. In the past few decades, various terms for RCDs were coined, and some of them have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various types of acute kidney injury (AKI). Cisplatin is widely used as a chemotherapeutic drug for a broad spectrum of cancers, but its usage was hampered because of being highly nephrotoxic. Cisplatin-induced AKI is commonly seen clinically, and it also serves as a well-established prototypic model for laboratory investigations relevant to acute nephropathy affecting especially the tubular compartment. Literature reports over a period of three decades have indicated that there are multiple types of RCDs, including apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and mitochondrial permeability transition-mediated necrosis, and some of them are pertinent to the pathogenesis of cisplatin-induced AKI. Interestingly, myo-inositol metabolism, a vital biological process that is largely restricted to the kidney, seems to be relevant to the pathogenesis of certain forms of RCDs. A comprehensive understanding of RCDs in cisplatin-induced AKI and their relevance to myo-inositol homeostasis may yield novel therapeutic targets for the amelioration of cisplatin-related nephropathy.

Abstract
Organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) is a transporter that regulates the hepatic uptake and subsequent elimination of diverse cationic compounds. Although OCT1 has been involved in drug-drug interactions and causes pharmacokinetic variability of many prescription drugs, details of the molecular mechanisms that regulate the activity of OCT1 remain incompletely understood. Based on an unbiased phospho-proteomics screen, we identified OCT1 as a tyrosine-phosphorylated transporter, and functional validation studies using genetic and pharmacological approaches revealed that OCT1 is highly sensitive to small molecules that target the protein kinase YES1, such as dasatinib. In addition, we found that dasatinib can inhibit hepatic OCT1 function in mice as evidenced from its ability to modulate levels of isobutyryl L-carnitine, a hepatic OCT1 biomarker identified from a targeted metabolomics analysis. These findings provide novel insight into the post-translational regulation of OCT1 and suggest that caution is warranted with polypharmacy regimes involving the combined use of OCT1 substrates and kinase inhibitors that target YES1.

Abstract
Interstitial fibrosis with tubule atrophy (IF/TA) is the response to virtually any sustained kidney injury and correlates inversely with kidney function and allograft survival. IF/TA is driven by various pathways that include hypoxia, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling, cellular rejection, inflammation and others. In this review we will focus on key pathways in the progress of renal fibrosis, diagnosis and therapy of allograft fibrosis. This review discusses the role and origin of myofibroblasts as matrix producing cells and therapeutic targets in renal fibrosis with a particular focus on renal allografts. We summarize current trends to use multi-omic approaches to identify new biomarkers for IF/TA detection and to predict allograft survival. Furthermore, we review current imaging strategies that might help to identify and follow-up IF/TA complementary or as alternative to invasive biopsies. We further discuss current clinical trials and therapeutic strategies to treat kidney fibrosis.Supplemental Visual Abstract; http://links.lww.com/TP/C141.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a widespread cellular programme that is characterized by permanent cell cycle arrest. Senescent cells adopt a changed secretory phenotype that can alter cellular function. For years, cellular senescence has been thought to be a protective factor against cancer; however, it is now recognized that it has a dual effect on individuals. Co‐ordinated activation of cellular senescence provides advantages during embryogenesis, wound healing, tissue repair and inhibition of tumorigenesis. On the other hand, the aberrant generation and accumulation of abnormal senescent cells lead to the development of age‐related conditions and tissue deterioration. During acute kidney injury (AKI), the kidney faces multiple types of stressors and challenges, which can easily drive cellular senescence. How to appropriately progress through the cell cycle and minimize long‐term damage is of great importance to the acquisition of adaptive repair considering that no available therapeutic interventions can reliably limit injury, speedy recovery or improve the prognosis of this syndrome. Whether the manipulation of cellular senescence can become a novel therapeutic target in AKI and reignite clinical and research interest remains to be determined. Here, we share our current understanding of the role of cellular senescence in AKI, along with examples of the application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for targeting this disorder during its treatment.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical syndrome associated with adverse short- and long-term sequelae. Renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC) dysfunction and cell death are among the key pathological features of AKI. Diverse systemic and localized stress conditions such as sepsis, rhabdomyolysis, cardiac surgery, and nephrotoxic drugs can trigger RTEC dysfunction. Through an unbiased RNA inhibition screen, we recently identified cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (Cdkl5), also known as serine/threonine kinase-9, as a critical regulator of RTEC dysfunction associated with nephrotoxic and ischemia-associated AKI. In the present study, we examined the role of Cdkl5 in rhabdomyolysis-associated AKI. Using activation-specific antibodies and kinase assays, we found that Cdkl5 is activated in RTECs early during the development of rhabdomyolysis-associated AKI. Furthermore, we found that RTEC-specific Cdkl5 gene ablation mitigates rhabdomyolysis-associated renal impairment. In addition, the small-molecule kinase inhibitor AST-487 alleviated rhabdomyolysis-associated AKI in a Cdkl5-dependent manner. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that Cdkl5 phosphorylates the transcriptional regulator sex-determining region Y box 9 (Sox9) and suppresses its protective function under stress conditions. On the basis of these results, we propose that, by suppressing the protective Sox9-directed transcriptional program, Cdkl5 contributes to rhabdomyolysis-associated renal impairment. All together, the present study identified Cdkl5 as a critical stress-induced kinase that drives RTEC dysfunction and kidney injury linked with distinct etiologies.

PPAR-α Deletion Attenuates Cisplatin Nephrotoxicity by Modulating Renal Organic Transporters MATE-1 and OCT-2. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21197416.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a chemotherapy drug widely used in the treatment of solid tumors. However, nephrotoxicity has been reported in about one-third of patients undergoing cisplatin therapy. Proximal tubules are the main target of cisplatin toxicity and cellular uptake; elimination of this drug can modulate renal damage. Organic transporters play an important role in the transport of cisplatin into the kidney and organic cations transporter 2 (OCT-2) has been shown to be one of the most important transporters to play this role. On the other hand, multidrug and toxin extrusion 1 (MATE-1) transporter is the main protein that mediates the extrusion of cisplatin into the urine. Cisplatin nephrotoxicity has been shown to be enhanced by increased OCT-2 and/or reduced MATE-1 activity. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α) is the transcription factor which controls lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis; it is highly expressed in the kidneys and interacts with both MATE-1 and OCT-2. Considering the above, we treated wild-type and PPAR-α knockout mice with cisplatin in order to evaluate the severity of nephrotoxicity. Cisplatin induced renal dysfunction, renal inflammation, apoptosis and tubular injury in wild-type mice, whereas PPAR-α deletion protected against these alterations. Moreover, we observed that cisplatin induced down-regulation of organic transporters MATE-1 and OCT-2 and that PPAR-α deletion restored the expression of these transporters. In addition, PPAR-α knockout mice at basal state showed increased MATE-1 expression and reduced OCT-2 levels. Here, we show for the first time that PPAR-α deletion protects against cisplatin nephrotoxicity and that this protection is via modulation of the organic transporters MATE-1 and OCT-2.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical condition associated with diverse etiologies and abrupt loss of renal function. In patients with sepsis, rhabdomyolysis, cancer, and cardiovascular disorders, the underlying disease or associated therapeutic interventions can cause hypoxia, cytotoxicity, and inflammatory insults to renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs), resulting in the onset of AKI. To uncover stress-responsive disease-modifying genes, here we have carried out renal transcriptome profiling in three distinct murine models of AKI. We find that Vgf nerve growth factor inducible gene up-regulation is a common transcriptional stress response in RTECs to ischemia-, cisplatin-, and rhabdomyolysis-associated renal injury. The Vgf gene encodes a secretory peptide precursor protein that has critical neuroendocrine functions; however, its role in the kidneys remains unknown. Our functional studies show that RTEC-specific Vgf gene ablation exacerbates ischemia-, cisplatin-, and rhabdomyolysis-associated AKI in vivo and cisplatin-induced RTEC cell death in vitro Importantly, aggravation of cisplatin-induced renal injury caused by Vgf gene ablation is partly reversed by TLQP-21, a Vgf-derived peptide. Finally, in vitro and in vivo mechanistic studies showed that injury-induced Vgf up-regulation in RTECs is driven by the transcriptional regulator Sox9. These findings reveal a crucial downstream target of the Sox9-directed transcriptional program and identify Vgf as a stress-responsive protective gene in kidney tubular epithelial cells.

Abstract
Renal protection from s-ethyl cysteine (SEC) against cisplatin (CP)-induced inflammatory and oxidative injury was examined. Mice were divided into five groups: normal group, 0.25% SEC group, CP group, 0.125% SEC + CP group, 0.25% SEC + CP group. After 2 weeks supplementation, mice of CP and SEC + CP groups received CP treatment. H&E stain showed that CP caused infiltration of inflammatory cells and necrosis of tubular cells. SEC pre-treatments attenuated CP-induced inflammatory injury and degeneration. SEC pre-treatments limited CP-stimulated release of interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and prostaglandin E2 in kidney. CP raised the renal activity and mRNA expression of cyclooxygenase-2 and nuclear factor kappa B. SEC pre-treatments reversed these alterations. CP increased the production of reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide, and lowered glutathione content, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase activities in kidney. SEC pre-treatments reversed these changes. CP up-regulated renal inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression, and down-regulated nuclear factor E2-related factor (Nrf)-2 and heme oxygenase (HO)-1 mRNA expression. SEC pre-treatments suppressed iNOS mRNA expression; and enhanced renal Nrf2 and HO-1 mRNA expression. These novel findings suggest that dietary SEC via exerting its multiple bio-functions could be considered as a protective agent for kidney against CP.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) have emerged as important therapeutic targets. Pharmacologic inhibitors of these kinases function to inhibit cell-cycle progression and exert other important effects on the tumor and host environment. Because of their impact on the cell cycle, CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) have been hypothesized to antagonize the antitumor effects of cytotoxic chemotherapy in tumors that are CDK4/6 dependent. However, there are multiple preclinical studies that illustrate potent cooperation between CDK4/6i and chemotherapy. Furthermore, the combination of CDK4/6i and chemotherapy is being tested in clinical trials to both enhance antitumor efficacy and limit toxicity. Exploitation of the noncanonical effects of CDK4/6i could also provide an impetus for future studies in combination with chemotherapy. Thus, while seemingly mutually exclusive mechanisms are at play, the combination of CDK4/6 inhibition and chemotherapy could exemplify rational medicine.

Ribociclib mitigates cisplatin-associated kidney injury through retinoblastoma-1 dependent mechanisms. Biochem Pharmacol 2020; 177:113939.

Abstract
Aberrant cell cycle activation is a hallmark of carcinogenesis. Recently three cell cycle targeting cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. CDK4/6 inhibitors suppress proliferation through inhibition of CDK4/6-dependent retinoblastoma-1 (Rb1) phosphorylation and inactivation, a key regulatory step in G1-to-S-phase transition. Importantly, aberrant cell cycle activation is also linked with several non-oncological diseases including acute kidney injury (AKI). AKI is a common disorder caused by toxic, inflammatory, and ischemic damage to renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs). Interestingly, AKI triggered by the anti-cancer drug cisplatin can be mitigated by ribociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor, through mechanisms that remain unclear. Employing in vivo cell cycle analysis and functional Rb1 knock-down, here, we have examined the cellular and pharmacological basis of the renal protective effects of ribociclib during cisplatin nephrotoxicity. Remarkably, siRNA-mediated Rb1 silencing or RTEC-specific Rb1 gene ablation did not alter the severity of cisplatin-associated AKI; however, it completely abrogated the protective effects conferred by ribociclib administration. Furthermore, we find that cisplatin treatment evokes CDK4/6 activation and Rb1 phosphorylation in the normally quiescent RTECs, however, this is not followed by S-phase entry likely due to DNA-damage induced G1 arrest. The cytoprotective effects of ribociclib are thus not a result of suppression of S-phase entry but are likely dependent on the maintenance of Rb1 in a hypo-phosphorylated and functionally active form under stress conditions. These findings delineate the role of Rb1 in AKI and illustrate the pharmacological basis of the renal protective effects of CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Abstract
In a clinically-relevant model of 4 week, low-dose cisplatin-induced AKI, mice were injected subcutaneously with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells that harbor an activating Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS)G12V mutation. Phospho extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 (pERK1/2) expression in kidney and tumors was decreased by the MEK1/2 inhibitors, U0126 and trametinib, that potently inhibit pERK1/2. U0126 resulted in a significant improvement in kidney function, acute tubular necrosis (ATN) and tubular cell apoptosis in mice with AKI. Genes that were significantly decreased by U0126 were heat shock protein 1, cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and stratifin (14-3-3σ). U0126 resulted in a significant decrease in tumor weight and volume and significantly increased the chemotherapeutic effect of cisplatin. Trametinib, a MEK1/2 inhibitor that is FDA-approved for the treatment of cancer, did not result in functional protection against AKI or worse AKI, but dramatically decreased tumor growth more than cisplatin. Smaller tumors in cisplatin or MEK1/2 inhibitor-treated mice were not related to changes in microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3B (LC3-II), p62, cleaved caspase-3, granzyme B, or programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). In summary, despite ERK inhibition by both U0126 and trametinib, only U0126 protected against AKI suggesting that the protection against AKI by U0126 was due to an off-target effect independent of ERK inhibition. The effect of U0126 to decrease AKI may be mediated by inhibition of heat shock protein 1, CDK4 or stratifin (14-3-3σ). Trametinib was more effective than cisplatin in decreasing tumor growth, but unlike cisplatin, trametinib did not cause AKI.

Abstract
Members of the solute carrier (SLC) family of transporters are responsible for the cellular influx of a broad range of endogenous compounds and xenobiotics. These proteins are highly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract and eliminating organs such as the liver and kidney, and are considered to be of particular importance in governing drug absorption and elimination. Many of the same transporters are also expressed in a wide variety of organs targeted by clinically important anticancer drugs, directly affect cellular sensitivity to these agents, and indirectly influence treatment-related side effects. Furthermore, targeted intervention strategies involving the use of transport inhibitors have been recently developed, and have provided promising lead candidates for combinatorial therapies associated with decreased toxicity. Gaining a better understanding of the complex interplay between transporter-mediated on-target and off-target drug disposition will help guide the further development of these novel treatment strategies to prevent drug accumulation in toxicity-associated organs, and improve the safety of currently available treatment modalities. In this report, we provide an update on this rapidly emerging field with particular emphasis on anticancer drugs belonging to the classes of taxanes, platinum derivatives, nucleoside analogs, and anthracyclines.

Abstract
Combination ribociclib and aromatase inhibitors are currently the preferred treatment in Australia for newly diagnosed hormone receptor positive metastatic breast cancer in the absence of visceral crisis. In our case series of 32 patients, 28% experienced grade 1 elevations in creatinine, a toxicity that was under-recognised in large phase III studies. Creatinine rise appears to be due to a reversible inhibition of renal efflux transporters rather than an acute kidney injury in the majority of cases.

CDK4/6 inhibition mitigates stem cell damage in a novel model for taxane-induced alopecia. EMBO Mol Med 2019; 11:e11031. [PMID: 31512803 PMCID: PMC6783643 DOI: 10.15252/emmm.201911031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Revised: 08/13/2019] [Accepted: 08/16/2019] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Taxanes are a leading cause of severe and often permanent chemotherapy‐induced alopecia. As the underlying pathobiology of taxane chemotherapy‐induced alopecia remains poorly understood, we investigated how paclitaxel and docetaxel damage human scalp hair follicles in a clinically relevant ex vivo organ culture model. Paclitaxel and docetaxel induced massive mitotic defects and apoptosis in transit amplifying hair matrix keratinocytes and within epithelial stem/progenitor cell‐rich outer root sheath compartments, including within Keratin 15+ cell populations, thus implicating direct damage to stem/progenitor cells as an explanation for the severity and permanence of taxane chemotherapy‐induced alopecia. Moreover, by administering the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib, we show that transit amplifying and stem/progenitor cells can be protected from paclitaxel cytotoxicity through G1 arrest, without premature catagen induction and additional hair follicle damage. Thus, the current study elucidates the pathobiology of taxane chemotherapy‐induced alopecia, highlights the paramount importance of epithelial stem/progenitor cell‐protective therapy in taxane‐based oncotherapy, and provides preclinical proof‐of‐principle in a healthy human (mini‐) organ that G1 arrest therapy can limit taxane‐induced tissue damage.
