Abstract
Urinary heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) is rapidly increased in patients with clinical acute kidney injury, indicating that it constitutes a component of the endogenous stress response to renal injury. Moreover, experimental models have demonstrated that Hsp70 activation is associated with the cytoprotective actions of several drugs following obstruction, including nitric oxide (NO) donors, geranylgeranylacetone, vitamin D, and rosuvastatin. Discrete and synergistic effects of the biological activities of Hsp70 may explain its cytoprotective role in obstructive nephropathy. Basic studies point to a combination of effects including inhibition of apoptosis and inflammation, repair of damaged proteins, prevention of unfolded protein aggregation, targeting of damaged protein for degradation, and cytoskeletal stabilization as primary effectors of Hsp70 action. This review summarizes our understanding of how the biological actions of Hsp70 may affect renal cytoprotection in the context of obstructive injury. The potential of Hsp70 to be of central importance to the mechanism of action of various drugs that modify the genesis of experimental obstructive nephropathy is considered.

Abstract
Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is the most frequently observed cause of obstructive nephropathy in children. Neonatal and foetal animal models have been developed that mimic closely what is observed in human disease. The purpose of this review is to discuss how obstructive nephropathy alters kidney histology and function and describe the molecular mechanisms involved in the progression of the lesions, including inflammation, proliferation/apoptosis, renin-angiotensin system activation and fibrosis, based on both human and animal data. Also we propose that during obstructive nephropathy, hydrodynamic modifications are early inducers of the tubular lesions, which are potentially at the origin of the pathology. Finally, an important observation in animal models is that relief of obstruction during kidney development has important effects on renal function later in adult life. A major short-coming is the absence of data on the impact of UPJ obstruction on long-term adult renal function to elucidate whether these animal data are also valid in humans.

Abstract
The secreted phosphorylated protein osteopontin (OPN) is expressed in a variety of tissues and bodily fluids, and is associated with pathologies including tissue injury, infection, autoimmune disease and cancer. Macrophages are ubiquitous, heterogeneous cells that mediate aspects of cell and tissue damage in all these pathologies. Here, the role of OPN in macrophage function is reviewed. OPN is expressed in macrophage cells in multiple pathologies, and the regulation of its expression in these cells has been described in vitro. The protein has been implicated in multiple functions of macrophages, including cytokine expression, expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, phagocytosis and migration. Indeed, the role of OPN in cells of the macrophage lineage might underlie its physiological role in many pathologies. However, there are numerous instances where the published literature is inconsistent, especially in terms of OPN function in vitro. Although the heterogeneity of OPN and its receptors, or of macrophages themselves, might underlie some of these inconsistencies, it is important to understand the role of OPN in macrophage biology in order to exploit its function therapeutically.

Abstract
There is growing evidence that statins may exert renoprotective effects beyond cholesterol reduction. The cholesterol-independent or "pleiotropic" effects of statins include the upregulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). Here we determined whether eNOS associated with Hsp70 expression is involved in rosuvastatin resistance to obstruction-induced oxidative stress and cell death. Neonatal rats subjected to unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) within two days of birth and controls were treated daily with vehicle or rosuvastatin (10 mg/kg/day) for 14 days. Decreased endogenous nitric oxide (NO) and lower mRNA and protein eNOS expression associated with downregulation of heat shock factor 1 (Hsf1) mRNA and Hsp70 protein levels were observed in the obstructed kidney cortex. Increased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADHP) oxidase activity and apoptosis induction, regulated by mitochondrial signal pathway through an increased pro-apoptotic Bax/BcL(2) ratio and caspase 3 activity, were demonstrated. Conversely, in cortex membrane fractions from rosuvastatin-treated UUO rats, marked upregulation of eNOS expression at transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels linked to increased Hsf1 mRNA expression and enhanced mRNA and protein Hsp70 expression, were observed. Consequently, there was an absence of apoptotic response and transiently decreased NADPH oxidase activity. In addition, interaction between eNOS and Hsp70 was determined by communoprecipitation in cortex membrane fractions, showing an increased ratio of both proteins, after rosuvastatin treatment in obstructed kidney. In summary, our data demonstrate that the effect of rosuvastatin on eNOS interacting with Hsp70, results in the capacity of both to prevent mitochondrial apoptotic pathway and oxidative stress in neonatal early kidney obstruction.

Abstract
Macrophages are heterogeneous and include classically activated M1 and alternatively activated M2 macrophages, characterized by pro- and anti-inflammatory functions, respectively. Macrophages that express heme oxygenase-1 also exhibit anti-inflammatory effects. We assessed the anti-inflammatory effects of statin in experimental anti-glomerular basement membrane glomerulonephritis and in vitro, focusing on the macrophage heterogeneity. Rats were induced anti-glomerular basement membrane glomerulonephritis and treated with atorvastatin (20 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (control). Control rats showed infiltration of macrophages in the glomeruli at day 3 and developed crescentic glomerulonephritis by day 7, together with increased mRNA levels of the M1 macrophage-associated cytokines, interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin-12. In contrast, statin reduced the level of proteinuria, reduced infiltration of macrophages in glomeruli with suppression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 expression, and inhibited the formation of necrotizing and crescentic lesions. The number of glomerular ED3-positive macrophages decreased with down-regulation of M1 macrophage-associated cytokines. Furthermore, statin augmented ED2-positive M2 macrophages with up-regulation of the M2 macrophage-associated chemokines and cytokines, chemokine (C-C motif) Iigand-17 and interleukin-10. Statin also increased the glomerular interleukin-10-expressing heme oxygenase-1-positive macrophages. Statin inhibited macrophage development, and suppressed ED3-positive macrophages, but augmented ED2-positive macrophages in M2-associated cytokine environment in vitro. We conclude that the anti-inflammatory effects of statin in glomerulonephritis are mediated through inhibition of macrophage infiltration as well as augmentation of anti-inflammatory macrophages.

Abstract
Obstructive nephropathy is characterized by an inflammatory state in the kidney, that is promoted by cytokines and growth factors produced by damaged tubular cells, infiltrated macrophages and accumulated myofibroblasts. This inflammatory state contributes to tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis characteristic of obstructive nephropathy. Accumulation of leukocytes, especially macrophages and T lymphocytes, in the renal interstitium is strongly associated to the progression of renal injury. Proinflammatory cytokines, NF-κB activation, adhesion molecules, chemokines, growth factors, NO and oxidative stress contribute in different ways to progressive renal damage induced by obstructive nephropathy, as they induce leukocytes recruitment, tubular cell apoptosis and interstitial fibrosis. Increased angiotensin II production, increased oxidative stress and high levels of proinflammatory cytokines contribute to NF-κB activation which in turn induce the expression of adhesion molecules and chemokines responsible for leukocyte recruitment and iNOS and cytokines overexpression, which aggravates the inflammatory response in the damaged kidney. In this manuscript we revise the different events and regulatory mechanisms involved in inflammation associated to obstructive nephropathy.

Abstract
Hypokalemic nephropathy is associated with alterations in intrarenal vasoactive substances, leading to vasoconstriction, salt-sensitivity, and progression of interstitial fibrosis. In this study, we investigated whether hypokalemic nephropathy might also involve impaired renal angiogenesis. Sprague-Dawley rats that were fed low-potassium diets developed peritubular capillary loss that began in the inner stripe of the outer medulla (week 2) and progressed to the outer stripe of the outer medulla (week 4) and cortex (week 12). These changes were associated with increased macrophage infiltration, increased expression of both monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and TNF-alpha, and a loss of vascular endothelial growth factor and endothelial nitric oxide synthase. Renal thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, markers of oxidative stress, were increased late in disease. In conclusion, hypokalemic nephropathy is associated with impaired renal angiogenesis, evidenced by progressive capillary loss, reduced endothelial cell proliferation, and loss of VEGF expression.
