Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, as a pathological phenomenon, takes place when blood supply to an organ is disrupted and then aggravated during restoration of blood flow. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is a potent method for attenuating subsequent events of IR damage in numerous organs. IPC protocol is determined by a brief and sequential time periods of I/R before the main ischemia. MicroRNAs are endogenous non-coding RNAs that regulate post-transcriptionally target mRNA translation via degrading it and/or suppressing protein synthesis. This review introduces the physiological and cellular mechanisms of ischemic preconditioning microRNAs-mediated after I/R insult in different organs such as the liver, kidney, heart, brain, and intestine. Data of this review have been collected from the scientific articles published in databases such as Science Direct, Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scientific Information Database from 2000 to 2023. Based on these literature studies, IPC/IR intervention can affect cellular mechanisms including oxidative stress, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and inflammation through up-regulation or down-regulation of multiple microRNAs and their target genes.

Tolerogenic CD11c +dendritic cells regulate CD4 +Tregs in replacing delayed ischemic preconditioning to alleviate ischemia-reperfusion acute kidney injury. FASEB J 2024; 38:e23575. [PMID: 38530256 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202302299rr] [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: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is one of the primary clinical causes of acute kidney injury (AKI). The key to IRI lies in immune-inflammatory damage, where dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in eliciting immune responses within the context of inflammation induced by ischemia-reperfusion. Our previous study has confirmed that delayed ischemic preconditioning (DIPC) can reduce the kidney injury by mediating DCs to regulate T-cells. However, the clinical feasibility of DIPC is limited, as pre-clamping of the renal artery is not applicable for the prevention and treatment of ischemia-reperfusion acute kidney injury (I/R-AKI) in clinical patients. Therefore, the infusion of DCs as a substitute for DIPC presents a more viable strategy for preventing renal IRI. In this study, we further evaluated the impact and mechanism of infused tolerogenic CD11c+DCs on the kidneys following IRI by isolating bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and establishing an I/R-AKI model after pre-infusion of DCs. Renal function was significantly improved in the I/R-AKI mouse model after pre-infused with CD11c+DCs. The pro-inflammatory response and oxidative damage were reduced, and the levels of T helper 2 (Th2) cells and related anti-inflammatory cytokines were increased, which was associated with the reduction of autologous DCs maturation mediated by CD11c+DCs and the increase of regulatory T-cells (Tregs). Next, knocking out CD11c+DCs, we found that the reduced immune protection of tolerogenic CD11c+DCs reinfusion was related to the absence of own DCs. Together, pre-infusion of tolerogenic CD11c+DCs can replace the regulatory of DIPC on DCs and T-cells to alleviate I/R-AKI. DC vaccine is expected to be a novel avenue to prevent and treat I/R-AKI.

Abstract
Following myocardial ischemic injury, the most effective clinical intervention is timely restoration of blood perfusion to ischemic but viable myocardium to reduce irreversible myocardial necrosis, limit infarct size, and prevent cardiac insufficiency. However, reperfusion itself may exacerbate cell death and myocardial injury, a process commonly referred to as ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which primarily involves cardiomyocytes and cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) and is characterized by myocardial stunning, microvascular damage (MVD), reperfusion arrhythmia, and lethal reperfusion injury. MVD caused by I/R has been a neglected problem compared to myocardial injury. Clinically, the incidence of microvascular angina and/or no-reflow due to ineffective coronary perfusion accounts for 5-50% in patients after acute revascularization. MVD limiting drug diffusion into injured myocardium, is strongly associated with the development of heart failure. CMECs account for > 60% of the cardiac cellular components, and their role in myocardial I/R injury cannot be ignored. There are many studies on microvascular obstruction, but few studies on microvascular leakage, which may be mainly due to the lack of corresponding detection methods. In this review, we summarize the clinical manifestations, related mechanisms of MVD during myocardial I/R, laboratory and clinical examination means, as well as the research progress on potential therapies for MVD in recent years. Better understanding the characteristics and risk factors of MVD in patients after hemodynamic reconstruction is of great significance for managing MVD, preventing heart failure and improving patient prognosis.

Abstract
Background and purpose The renin-angiotensin system activation, partial ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury, and hypertension contribute to the development of acute kidney injury. The study aims to look at the vascular responses of angiotensin II (Ang II) during Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockade (losartan) or co-blockades of AT1R and Mas receptor (A779) in two kidneys one clip (2K1C) hypertensive rats which subjected to partial IR injury with and without ischemia preconditioning (IPC). Experimental approach Thirty-three 2K1C male Wistar rats with systolic blood pressure ≥ 150 mmHg were divided into three groups of sham, IR, and IPC + IR divided into two sub-groups receiving losartan or losartan + A779. The IR group had 45 min partial kidney ischemia, while the IPC + IR group had two 5 min cycles of partial ischemia followed by 10 min of reperfusion and then 45 min of partial kidney ischemia followed by reperfusion. The sham group was subjected to similar surgical procedures except for IR or IPC. Findings/Results Ang II increased mean arterial pressure in all the groups, but there were no significant differences between the sub-groups. A significant difference was observed in the renal blood flow response to Ang II between two sub-groups of sham and IR groups treated with AT1R blockade alone or co-blockades of AT1R + A779. Conclusion and implications These findings demonstrated the significance of AT1R and Mas receptor following partial renal IR in the renal blood flow responses to Ang II in 2K1C hypertensive rats.

Abstract
Perioperative organ injury remains a medical, social and economic problem in cardiac surgery. Patients with postoperative organ dysfunction have increases in morbidity, length of stay, long-term mortality, treatment costs and rehabilitation time. Currently, there are no pharmaceutical technologies or non-pharmacological interventions that can mitigate the continuum of multiple organ dysfunction and improve the outcomes of cardiac surgery. It is essential to identify agents that trigger or mediate an organ-protective phenotype during cardiac surgery. The authors highlight nitric oxide (NO) ability to act as an agent for perioperative protection of organs and tissues, especially in the heart-kidney axis. NO has been delivered in clinical practice at an acceptable cost, and the side effects of its use are known, predictable, reversible and relatively rare. This review presents basic data, physiological research and literature on the clinical application of NO in cardiac surgery. Results support the use of NO as a safe and promising approach in perioperative patient management. Further clinical research is required to define the role of NO as an adjunct therapy that can improve outcomes in cardiac surgery. Clinicians also have to identify cohorts of responders for perioperative NO therapy and the optimal modes for this technology.

Abstract
The complexity and application range of interventional and diagnostic procedures using contrast media (CM) have recently increased. This allows more patients to undergo procedures that involve CM administration. However, the intrinsic CM toxicity leads to the risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). At present, effective therapy of CI-AKI is rather limited. Effective prevention of CI-AKI therefore becomes crucially important. This review presents an in-depth discussion of CI-AKI incidence, pathogenesis, risk prediction, current preventive strategies, and novel treatment possibilities. The review also discusses the difference between CI-AKI incidence following intraarterial and intravenous CM administration. Factors contributing to the development of CI-AKI are considered in conjunction with the mechanism of acute kidney damage. The need for ultimate risk estimation and the prediction of CI-AKI is stressed. Possibilities of CI-AKI prevention is evaluated within the spectrum of existing preventive measures aimed at reducing kidney injury. In particular, the review discusses intravenous hydration regimes and pre-treatment with statins and N-acetylcysteine. The review further focuses on emerging alternative imaging technologies, alternative intravascular diagnostic and interventional procedures, and new methods for intravenous hydration guidance; it discusses the applicability of those techniques in complex procedures and their feasibility in current practise. We put emphasis on contemporary interventional cardiology imaging methods, with a brief discussion of CI-AKI in non-vascular and non-cardiologic imaging and interventional studies.

Repeated Episodes of Ischemia/Reperfusion Induce Heme-Oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and Anti-Inflammatory Responses and Protects against Chronic Kidney Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232314573.

Abstract
Preconditioning episodes of ischemia/reperfusion (IR) induce protection against acute kidney injury (AKI), however their long-term effect still unknown. We evaluated AKI to chronic kidney disease (CKD) transition, after three-mild or three-severe episodes of IR. AKI was induced by single bilateral IR (1IR), or three episodes of IR separated by 10-day intervals (3IR) of mild (20 min) or severe (45 min) ischemia. Sham-operated rats served as controls. During 9-months, the 1IR group (20 or 45 min) developed CKD evidenced by progressive proteinuria and renal fibrosis. In contrast, the long-term adverse effects of AKI were markedly ameliorated in the 3IR group. The acute response in 3IR, contrasted with the 1IR group, that was characterized by an increment in heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and an anti-inflammatory response mediated by a NFkB-p65 phosphorylation and IL-6 decrease, together with an increase in TGF-β, and IL-10 expression, as well as in M2-macrophages. In addition, three episodes of IR downregulated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress markers expression, CHOP and BiP. Thus, repeated episodes of IR with 10-day intervals induced long-term renal protection accompanied with HO-1 overexpression and M2-macrophages increase.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Atherosclerosis is the primary cause of many cardiovascular diseases, and an increasing number of studies have shown that berberine could delay plaque formation and development. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate its effects and explore its mechanisms in this meta-analysis. We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and VIP databases for original preclinical studies to conduct meta-analysis. Twelve articles (16 studies; 312 ApoE -/- mice) were included, and all the studies scored 3-5 points according to SYRCLE's risk of bias tool. Berberine could significantly decrease plaque area and plaque macrophage content (plaque area, SMD = -2.02, 95% CI: -2.80 to -1.24, P = 0.000; plaque macrophage content, SMD = -4.28, 95% CI: -7.67 to -0.88, P = 0.013); lower the levels of TC, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein (TC, SMD = -1.47, 95% CI: -2.20 to -0.74, P = 0.000; triglyceride, SMD = -0.77, 95% CI: -1.21 to -0.33, P = 0.000; low-density lipoprotein, SMD = -0.61, 95% CI: -1.11 to -0.11, P = 0.000), and change the secretion of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, SMD = -2.29, 95% CI: -3.40 to -1.18, P = 0.000; interleukin-6, SMD = -1.48, 95% CI: -2.11 to -0.85, P = 0.008; tumor necrosis factor-α, SMD = -1.98, 95% CI: -3.01 to -0.94, P = 0.000; interleukin-10, SMD = 1.78, 95% CI: 0.76 to 2.80, P = 0.015), but there were no significant differences in high-density lipoprotein levels and plaque lipid content (high-density lipoprotein, SMD = 0.02, 95% CI: -0.35 to 0.40, P = 0.021; plaque lipid content, SMD = -6.85, 95% CI: -21.09 to 7.39, P = 0.007). The results were robust across a range of sensitivity analyses. Therefore, the results indicate that berberine is a promising drug for the treatment of atherosclerosis through regulating lipid metabolism, inflammation, and plaque composition. However, some potential mechanisms remain to be further elucidated.

Abstract
Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) causes acute kidney injury (AKI). Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) attenuates I/R-associated AKI. Whole-body irradiation induces renal IPC in mice. Still, the mechanisms remain largely unknown. Furthermore, the impact of kidney-centered irradiation on renal resistance against I/R has not been studied. Renal irradiation (8.5Gy) was done in male 8-12-week-old C57bl/6 mice using Small Animal Radiation Therapy (SmART) device. Left renal I/R was performed by clamping the renal pedicles for 30 minutes, with simultaneous right nephrectomy, at 7, 14, and 28 days post-irradiation. The renal reperfusion lasted 48 hours. Following I/R, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (SCr) levels were lower in pre-irradiated mice compared to controls, so was the histological Jablonski score of AKI. The metabolomics signature of renal I/R was attenuated in pre-irradiated mice. The numbers of PCNA-, CD11b-, and F4-80-positive cells in the renal parenchyma post-I/R were reduced in pre-irradiated versus control groups. Such an IPC was significantly observed as early as D14 post-irradiation. RNA-Seq showed an up-regulation of angiogenesis- and stress response-related signaling pathways in irradiated non-ischemic kidneys at D28. RT-qPCR confirmed the increased expression of VEGF, ALK5, HO1, PECAM1, NOX2, HSP70, and HSP27 in irradiated kidneys compared to controls. In addition, irradiated kidneys showed an increased CD31-positive vascular area compared to controls. A 14-day gavage of irradiated mice with the anti-angiogenic drug Sunitinib before I/R abrogated the irradiation-induced IPC at both functional and structural levels. Our observations suggest that kidney-centered irradiation activates pro-angiogenic pathways and induces IPC, with preserved renal function and attenuated inflammation post-I/R.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is one of the most vital pathogenesis leading to kidney injury but lacks effective prevention and treatment strategies. This study was conducted to investigate the influences of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) on the pathological process of mouse renal IRI (RIRI) and to figure out the role of autophagy of proximal tubular cells (PTCs) in this process. METHODS C57BL/6J mice were randomized to three groups, i.e., sham-operated group, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) group, and IPC + I/R group. Meanwhile, 3-methyladenine, an autophagy inhibitor, was administered when further verification was needed. Histological and functional severity of kidney injury, the autophagy and apoptosis activity of PTCs, as well as the characterization of the immune cell infiltration landscape in kidney tissues were investigated. Furthermore, HK-2 cells and primary cultured PTC were cultured to set up the hypoxic preconditioning and hypoxia/reoxygenation model for in vitro simulation and verification, and a microarray dataset derived from the Gene Expression Omnibus database was analyzed to explore the transcriptome profiles after IPC. RESULTS IPC could significantly attenuate I/R-induced kidney injury functionally and histologically both in the acute and recovery phase of RIRI by enhancing the autophagy activity of PTCs. Cell autophagy could regulate the release of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and sequentially decrease macrophages infiltration in kidney tissues in the acute phase of RIRI, thus mediating the reno-protective effect. CONCLUSIONS IPC could attenuate mouse RIRI-induced kidney injury. IPC-mediated activation of autophagy of PTCs plays a vital role in affording protection in RIRI-induced kidney injury.

Effects of Multimodal Bundle with Remote Ischemic Preconditioning and Intrathecal Analgesia on Early Recovery of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate after Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Partial Nephrectomy for Renal Cell Carcinoma. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14081985. [PMID: 35454891 PMCID: PMC9032668 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14081985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Revised: 04/03/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary This study suggested that robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN) may have benefits with regard to the preservation of renal function and few complications postoperatively in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, a reduction in the estimated glomerular filtration rate may be unavoidable. Our results suggested that the preservation of renal function may be enhanced by combining robot-assisted nephron-sparing surgery with an intraoperative bundle strategy consisting of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) and an intrathecal morphine block (ITMB), to protect against ischemia–reperfusion injury and the pain-related stress induced by renal artery clamping and surgical insults. It is important to adjust modifiable variables related to the progression of renal impairment in a timely and appropriate manner for the recovery of renal function after RALPN. Together with surgical and pharmacological methods to minimize irreversible injury, RIPC and ITMB combined bundle therapy may relieve ischemia–reperfusion- and pain-induced stress and serve as a safe and efficient method for improving renal outcomes of RALPN in patients with RCC. Abstract We investigated the effects of multimodal combined bundle therapy, consisting of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) and intrathecal morphine block (ITMB), on the early recovery of kidney function after robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN) in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In addition, we compared the surgical and analgesic outcomes between patients with and without bundle treatment. This prospective randomized double-blind controlled trial was performed in a cohort of 80 patients with RCC, who were divided into two groups: a bundle group (n = 40) and non-bundle group (n = 40). The primary outcome was postoperative kidney function, defined as the lowest estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on postoperative day (POD) 2. Surgical complications, pain, and length of hospital stay were assessed as secondary outcomes. The eGFR immediately after surgery was significantly lower in the bundle group compared to the preoperative baseline, but serial levels on PODs 1 and 2 and at three and six months after surgery were comparable to the preoperative baseline. The eGFR level immediately after surgery was lower in the non-bundle than bundle group, and serial levels on PODs 1 and 2 and at three months after surgery remained below the baseline. The eGFR level immediately after surgery was higher in the bundle group than in the non-bundle group. The eGFR changes immediately after surgery, and on POD 1, were smaller in the bundle than in the non-bundle group. The non-bundle group had longer hospital stays and more severe pain than the bundle group, but there were no severe surgical complications in either group. The combined RIPC and ITMB bundle may relieve ischemia–reperfusion- and pain-induced stress, as a safe and efficient means of improving renal outcomes following RALPN in patients with RCC.

The genetic deletion of the Dual Specificity Phosphatase 3 (DUSP3) attenuates kidney damage and inflammation following ischaemia/reperfusion injury in mouse. Acta Physiol (Oxf) 2022; 234:e13735. [PMID: 34704357 DOI: 10.1111/apha.13735] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2021] [Revised: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
AIM Dual Specificity Phosphatase 3 (DUSP3) regulates the innate immune response, with a putative role in angiogenesis. Modulating inflammation and perfusion contributes to renal conditioning against ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R). We postulate that the functional loss of DUSP3 is associated with kidney resistance to I/R. METHODS Ten C57BL/6 male WT and Dusp3-/- mice underwent right nephrectomy and left renal I/R (30 min/48 hours). Renal injury was assessed based on serum levels of urea (BUN) and Jablonski score. The expression of CD31 and VEGF vascular markers was quantified by RT-qPCR and immuno-staining. Renal resistivity index (RRI) was measured in vivo by Doppler ultrasound. Comparative phosphoproteomics was conducted using IMAC enrichment of phosphopeptides. Inflammatory markers were quantified at both mRNA and protein levels in ischaemic vs non-ischaemic kidneys in WT vs Dusp3-/- . RESULTS At baseline, we located DUSP3 in renal glomeruli and endothelial cells. CD31-positive vascular network was significantly larger in Dusp3-/- kidneys compared to WT, with a lower RRI in Dusp3-/- mice. Following I/R, BUN and Jablonski score were significantly lower in Dusp3-/- vs WT mice. Phosphoproteomics highlighted a down-regulation of inflammatory pathways and up-regulation of phospho-sites involved in cell metabolism and VEGF-related angiogenesis in Dusp3-/- vs WT ischaemic kidneys. Dusp3-/- ischaemic kidneys showed decreased mRNA levels of CD11b, TNF-α, KIM-1, IL-6, IL-1β and caspase-3 compared to controls. The numbers of PCNA-, F4-80- and CD11b-positive cells were reduced in Dusp3-/- vs WT kidneys post-I/R. CONCLUSION Genetic inactivation of Dusp3 is associated with kidney conditioning against I/R, possibly due to attenuated inflammation and improved perfusion.

Abstract
The “preconditioning effect” in AKI is a phenomenon in which an episode of ischemia-reperfusion results in tolerance to subsequent ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, its relationship between DNA damage repair has not been elucidated. Here, we show the role of KAT5 in the preconditioning effect. Preconditioning attenuated DNA damage in proximal tubular cells with elevated KAT5 expression. Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injuries were exacerbated, and preconditioning effect vanished in proximal tubular-cell-specific KAT5 knockout mice. Investigation of tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) by MALDI-IMS and urinary adenosine revealed that preconditioning caused attenuated TGF at least in part via KAT5. In addition, K-Cl cotransporter 3 (KCC3) expression decreased in damaged proximal tubular cells, which may be involved in accelerated TGF following IR. Furthermore, KAT5 induced KCC3 expression by maintaining chromatin accessibility and binding to the KCC3 promoter. These results suggest a novel mechanism of the preconditioning effect mediated by the promotion of DNA repair and attenuation of TGF through KAT5. KAT5-mediated DNA damage repair acts against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injuries K-Cl cotransporter3 (KCC3) expression is decreased in damaged proximal tubular cells Decreased KCC3 may lead to AKI via acceleration of tubuloglomerular feedback KAT5 induces KCC3 expression through an epigenetic mechanism

Abstract
Ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease, which consists of cellular damage and renal dysfunction. AKI is a major complication that is of particular concern after cardiac surgery and to a lesser degree following organ transplantation in the immediate post-transplantation period, leading to delayed graft function. Because effective therapies are still unavailable, several recent studies have explored the potential benefit of hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) on IRI. HPC refers to the acquisition of increased organ tolerance to subsequent ischaemic or severe hypoxic injury, and experimental evidences suggest a potential benefit of HPC. There are three experimental forms of HPC, and, for better clarity, we named them as follows: physical HPC, HPC via treated-cell administration and stabilised hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α HPC, or mimicked HPC. The purpose of this review is to present the latest developments in the literature on HPC in the context of renal IRI in pre-clinical models. The data we compiled suggest that preconditional activation of hypoxia pathways protects against renal IRI, suggesting that HPC could be used in the treatment of renal IRI in transplantation.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage kidney disease. It is, however, not devoid of complications. Delayed graft function related to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) nephrotoxicity, diabetes, and a particularly high-rate cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, represent important complications following kidney transplantation. Oxidative stress and chronic low-grade inflammation are mechanisms of disease incompletely abrogated in stable kidney transplant recipient (KTR), contributing to the occurrence of these complications. Polyphenols, bioactive compounds with recognized antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties have been strongly associated with prevention of CVD in the general population and have been shown to decrease IRI and antagonize CNI nephrotoxicity in animal experimental models, therefore they may have a role in prevention of complications in KTR. This narrative review aims to summarize and discuss current evidence on different polyphenols for prevention of complications, particularly prevention of CVD in KTR, pointing toward the need of further studies with potential clinical impact.

Abstract
The phenomenon of ischemic preconditioning was discovered in 1986 in experiments with the heart, and then it was observed in almost all organs, the kidneys included. This phenomenon is underlain by conditioning of the tissues with short ischemia/reperfusion cycles intended for subsequent exposure to pathological ischemia. Despite the kidneys are not viewed as so vital organs as the brain or the heart, the acute ischemic injury to kidneys is a widespread pathology responsible for the yearly death of almost 2 million patients, while the number of patients with chronic kidney disease is estimated as hundreds of millions or nearly 10% adult population the world over. Currently, it is believed that adaptation of the kidneys to ischemia by preconditioning is the most effective way to prevent the development of acute kidney injury, so deep insight into its molecular mechanisms will be a launch pad for creating the nephroprotective therapy by elevating renal tolerance to oxygen deficiency. This review focuses on the key signaling pathways of kidney ischemic preconditioning, the potential pharmacological mimetics of its key elements, and the limitations of this therapeutic avenue associated with age-related decline of ischemic tolerance of the kidneys.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) in the kidney is the most common cause of acute renal dysfunction through different cell damage mechanisms. This study aimed to investigate, on molecular basics for the first time, the effect of pantoprazole on renal IRI in rats. Different biochemical parameters and oxidative stress markers were assessed. ELISA was used to estimate proinflammatory cytokines. qRT-PCR and western blot were used to investigate the gene and protein expression. Renal histopathological examination was also performed. IRI resulted in tissue damage, elevation of serum levels of creatinine, urea nitrogen, malondialdehyde, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, up-regulation of NF-κB, JNK1/2, ERK1/2, p38, and cleaved caspase-3 proteins. Furthermore, it up-regulated the expression of the Bax gene and down-regulated the expression of the Bcl-2 gene. Treatment of the injured rats with pantoprazole, either single dose or multiple doses, significantly alleviated IRI-induced biochemical and histopathological changes, attenuated the levels of proinflammatory cytokines, down-regulated the expression of NF-κB, JNK1/2, ERK1/2, p38, and cleaved caspase-3 proteins, and the Bax gene, and up-regulated Bcl-2 gene expression. Moreover, treatment with pantoprazole multiple doses has an ameliorative effect that is greater than pantoprazole single-dose. In conclusion, pantoprazole diminished renal IRI via suppression of apoptosis, attenuation of the pro-inflammatory cytokines’ levels, and inhibition of the intracellular signaling pathway MAPK (ERK1/2, JNK, p38)–NF-κB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate if remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) can offer any renoprotective value by counteracting the deleterious effect of partial nephrectomy (PN) under warm ischemia on renal function. METHODS Four groups, each with 5 Wistar albino rats, were constructed; RIPC + PN, PN, RIPC and sham. Right nephrectomy was performed to constitute a solitary kidney model. RIPC denoted sequential clamping/declamping of the femoral artery/vein complex. PN was performed under warm-ischemia following RIPC. Blood samples were collected on multiple occasions until euthanasia on day 7. Immunoassays were conducted to measure the serum and tissues levels of kidney injury markers. Kidneys were examined histologically and morphometric analyzes were performed using digital scanning. RESULTS IL-33 levels did not differ significantly between the groups. Serum levels of KIM-1, NGAL, and aldose reductase in RIPC + PN, PN and RIPC groups were significantly lower than that of sham group. Tissue biomarker levels were similar across groups. The observed trend in mean necrosis area of PN group was higher than that of RIPC + PN group (p > 0.05). The transitional zone between necrosis and healthy tissue showed a trend towards increasing width in the rats subjected to RIPC before PN vs. those who underwent PN without RIPC (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION RIPC failed to counteract the renal functional consequences of PN under warm ischemia in a solitary kidney animal model. The supportive but marginal histological findings in favor of RIPC's renoprotective potential were not supplemented with the changes in serum and tissue biomarker levels.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC) is a cardioprotective phenomenon where brief periods of ischemia followed by reperfusion of one organ/tissue can confer subsequent protection against ischemia/reperfusion injury in other organs, such as the heart. It involves activation of humoral, neural or systemic communication pathways inducing different intracellular signals in the heart. The main purpose of this review is to summarize the possible mechanisms involved in the rIPC cardioprotection, and to describe recent clinical trials to establish the efficacy of these strategies in cardioprotection from lethal ischemia/reperfusion injury. In this sense, certain factors weaken the subcellular mechanisms of rIPC in patients, such as age, comorbidities, medication, and anesthetic protocol, which could explain the heterogeneity of results in some clinical trials. For these reasons, further studies, carefully designed, are necessary to develop a clearer understanding of the pathways and mechanism of early and late rIPC. An understanding of the pathways is important for translation to patients.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of cell-based interventions in experimental diabetic kidney disease. Stem Cells Transl Med 2021; 10:1304-1319. [PMID: 34106528 PMCID: PMC8380442 DOI: 10.1002/sctm.19-0419] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2019] [Revised: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Regenerative, cell‐based therapy is a promising treatment option for diabetic kidney disease (DKD), which has no cure. To prepare for clinical translation, this systematic review and meta‐analysis summarized the effect of cell‐based interventions in DKD animal models and treatment‐related factors modifying outcomes. Electronic databases were searched for original investigations applying cell‐based therapy in diabetic animals with kidney endpoints (January 1998‐May 2019). Weighted or standardized mean differences were estimated for kidney outcomes and pooled using random‐effects models. Subgroup analyses tested treatment‐related factor effects for outcomes (creatinine, urea, urine protein, fibrosis, and inflammation). In 40 studies (992 diabetic rodents), therapy included mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC; 61%), umbilical cord/amniotic fluid cells (UC/AF; 15%), non‐MSC (15%), and cell‐derived products (13%). Tissue sources included bone marrow (BM; 65%), UC/AF (15%), adipose (9%), and others (11%). Cell‐based therapy significantly improved kidney function while reducing injury markers (proteinuria, histology, fibrosis, inflammation, apoptosis, epithelial‐mesenchymal‐transition, oxidative stress). Preconditioning, xenotransplantation, and disease‐source approaches were effective. MSC and UC/AF cells had greater effect on kidney function while cell products improved fibrosis. BM and UC/AF tissue sources more effectively improved kidney function and proteinuria vs adipose or other tissues. Cell dose, frequency, and administration route also imparted different benefits. In conclusion, cell‐based interventions in diabetic animals improved kidney function and reduced injury with treatment‐related factors modifying these effects. These findings may aid in development of optimal repair strategies through selective use of cells/products, tissue sources, and dose administrations to allow for successful adaptation of this novel therapeutic in human DKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive impairment is an age-dependent chronic disorder that exponentially worsens with age; however, its treatment is mostly symptomatic. Moxibustion is widely accepted in East Asia as a treatment for cognitive impairment. This systematic review aimed to verify the efficacy and underlying mechanism of moxibustion in treating cognitive impairment. METHODS Sixteen trials involving 324 animals obtained from MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, the Cochrane library, the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wan-Fang, Cqvip, the Korean Studies Information Service System, and the Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System met the inclusion criteria. We extracted the results of behavioral tests and immunohistochemical biomarkers from the included articles and evaluated the risk of bias and reporting quality. RESULTS The moxibustion group showed significantly decreased escape latency, increased crossing times, and prolonged dwelling times in the Morris water maze test. There was a significantly enhanced latency period and reduced error time in the step-down test and nerve behavior score. The effects of moxibustion were found to be mediated by suppression of oxidative stress and apoptosis, modulation of inflammation and Aβ genesis activation of vascular endothelial growth factor, and adjustment of metabolites in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and fatty acid metabolism. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of moxibustion on cognitive impairment and suggested the putative mechanism. However, considering the small number of included studies, high bias risk, low reporting quality, and the limitations of animal experimentation, our results need to be confirmed by more detailed studies.

Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is effective in limiting subsequent ischemic acute kidney injury in experimental models. MicroRNAs are an important class of post-transcriptional regulator and show promise as biomarkers of kidney injury. We evaluated the time- and dose-dependence of benefit from IPC in a rat model of functional (bilateral) ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI). We found optimal protection from subsequent injury following short, repetitive sequences of preconditioning insult. We subsequently used hybridization array and microRNA sequencing to characterize microRNA signatures of protective IPC and of IRI. These approaches identified a profile of microRNA changes consequent on IRI, that were limited by prior IPC. To localize these signals within the kidney, we used laser capture microdissection and RT-qPCR to measure microRNA abundance in nephron segments, pinpointing microRNA changes principally to glomeruli and proximal tubules. Our data describe a unique microRNA signature for IRI in the rat kidney. Pulsatile IPC reduces kidney damage following IRI and diminishes this microRNA signal. We have also identified candidate microRNAs that may act as biomarkers of injury and therapeutic targets in this context.

Abstract
The incidence of kidney disease is rising, constituting a significant burden on the healthcare system and making identification of new therapeutic targets increasingly urgent. The heme oxygenase (HO) system performs an important function in the regulation of oxidative stress and inflammation and, via these mechanisms, is thought to play a role in the prevention of non-specific injuries following acute renal failure or resulting from chronic kidney disease. The expression of HO-1 is strongly inducible by a wide range of stimuli in the kidney, consequent to the kidney's filtration role which means HO-1 is exposed to a wide range of endogenous and exogenous molecules, and it has been shown to be protective in a variety of nephropathological animal models. Interestingly, the positive effect of HO-1 occurs in both hemolysis- and rhabdomyolysis-dominated diseases, where the kidney is extensively exposed to heme (a major HO-1 inducer), as well as in non-heme-dependent diseases such as hypertension, diabetic nephropathy or progression to end-stage renal disease. This highlights the complexity of HO-1's functions, which is also illustrated by the fact that, despite the abundance of preclinical data, no drug targeting HO-1 has so far been translated into clinical use. The objective of this review is to assess current knowledge relating HO-1's role in the kidney and its potential interest as a nephroprotection agent. The potential therapeutic openings will be presented, in particular through the identification of clinical trials targeting this enzyme or its products.

Abstract
Astragaloside IV (ASIV) is the essential active component of astragalus that has diverse biological activities. Previous research has suggested its potentially beneficial effects on diabetic nephropathies. However, its effects and protective mechanism remain unclear. In this study, we conducted a preclinical systematic review to evaluate the efficacy and potential mechanisms of ASIV in reducing kidney damage in diabetes mellitus (DM) models. Studies were searched from nine databases until January 2020. A random-effects model was used to calculate combined standardised mean difference estimates and 95 % confidence intervals. Risk of bias of studies was assessed using the Systematic Review Center for Laboratory Animal Experimentation risk of bias tool 10-item checklist. RevMan 5.3 software was used for statistical analysis. Twenty-three studies involving 562 animals were included in the meta-analysis. Studies quality scores ranged from 2 to 5. The ASIV group induced a marked decrease in serum creatinine (P < 0.00001), blood urea nitrogen (P < 0.00001), 24-h urine protein (P < 0.00001) and pathological score (P < 0.001) compared with the control group. The determined potential mechanisms of ASIV action were relieving oxidative stress, delaying renal fibrosis, anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammatory action. We conclude that ASIV exerts renal protective effects in animals with DM through multiple signalling pathways.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury is an inescapable phenomenon in kidney transplantation. It combines lesional processes of biochemical origin associated with oxydative stress and of immunological origin in connection with the recruitment and activation of innate immunity cells. Histological lesions associate acute tubular necrosis and interstitial œdema, which can progress to interstitial fibrosis. The extent of these lesions depends on donor characteristics (age, expanded criteria donor, etc.) and cold ischemia time. In the short term, ischemia-reperfusion results in delayed recovery of graft function. Cold ischemia time also impacts long-term graft survival. Preclinical models, such as murine and porcine models, have furthered understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Due to its renal anatomical proximity to humans, the porcine model is relevant to assessment of the molecules administered to a donor or recipient, and also of additives to preservation solutions. Different donor resuscitation and graft perfusion strategies can be studied. In humans, prevention of ischemia-reperfusion injury is a research subject as concerns donor conditioning, additive molecules in preservation solutions, graft reperfusion modalities and choice of the molecules administered to the recipient. Pending significant advances in research, the goal is to achieve the shortest possible cold ischemia time.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation is a well-established therapy for patients with end-stage renal disease. While a significant improvement of short-term results has been achieved in the short-term, similar results were not reported in the long-term. Heme-oxygenase (HO) is the rate-limiting enzyme in heme catabolism, converting heme to iron, carbon monoxide, and biliverdin. Heme-oxygenase overexpression may be observed in all phases of transplant processes, including brain death, recipient management, and acute and chronic rejection. HO induction has been proved to provide a significant reduction of inflammatory response and a reduction of ischemia and reperfusion injury in organ transplantation, as well as providing a reduction of incidence of acute rejection. In this review, we will summarize data on HO and kidney transplantation, suggesting possible clinical applications in the near future to improve the long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Suprarenal aortic clamping during abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair results in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in local (i.e. kidney) and distant (i.e. heart) tissue. To investigate perioperative approaches that mitigate IRI-induced tissue damage, Wistar rats underwent suprarenal aortic clamping either alone or in combination with short cycles of ischemic conditioning before and/or after clamping. Serum analysis revealed significant reduction in key biochemical parameters reflecting decreased tissue damage at systemic level and improved renal function in conditioned groups compared to controls (p < 0.05), which was corroborated by histolopathological evaluation. Importantly, the levels of DNA damage, as reflected by the biomarkers 8-oxo-G, γH2AX and pATM were reduced in conditioned versus non-conditioned cases. In this setting, NADPH oxidase, a source of free radicals, decreased in the myocardium of conditioned cases. Of note, administration of 5-HD and 8-SPT blocking key protective signaling routes abrogated the salutary effect of conditioning. To further understand the non-targeted effect of IRI on the heart, it was noted that serum TGF-β1 levels decreased in conditioned groups, whereas this difference was eliminated after 5-HD and 8-SPT administration. Collectively, conditioning strategies reduced both renal and myocardial injury. Additionally, the present study highlights TGF-β1 as an attractive target for manipulation in this context.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Kidney transplantation is the best treatment for end-stage renal disease. However, due to organ shortage, suboptimal grafts are increasingly being used. RECENT FINDINGS We carried out a review on the methods and techniques of organ optimization in the cadaveric setting. Donor care is the first link in a chain of care. Right after brain death, there is a set of changes, of which hormonal and hemodynamic changes are the most relevant. Several studies have been conducted to determine which drugs to administer, although in most cases, the results are not definitive. The main goal seems rather achieve a set of biochemical and hemodynamic objectives. The ischemia-reperfusion injury is a critical factor for kidney damage in transplantation. One of the ways found to deal with this type of injury is preconditioning. Local and remote ischemic preconditioning has been studied for various organs, but studies on the kidney are scarce. A new promising area is pharmacological preconditioning, which is taking its first steps. Main surgical techniques were established in the late twentieth century. Some minor new features have been introduced to deal with anatomical variations or the emergence of donation after circulatory death. Finally, after harvesting, it is necessary to ensure the best conditions for the kidneys until the time of transplantation. Much has evolved since static cold preservation, but the best preservation conditions are yet to be determined. Conservation in the cold has come to be questioned, and great results have appeared at temperatures closer to physiological.

Abstract
Background: Acute kidney injury is a high-risk complication in a variety of clinical situations mostly due to ischemia–reperfusion (IR) injuries. The novel idea of remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC) was proposed to prevent serious ischemia sequels. To address the controversy of previous reports, the current study was performed to assess the effect of rIPC on kidney IR injury. Materials and Methods: Male BALB/c mice were exposed to either rIPC or sham intervention, 24 h before kidney IR. In two independent sets of experiments, rIPC was accomplished by inducing three cycles of 5 min ischemia with 5 min reperfusion intervals through the ligation of the left external iliac artery or infrarenal abdominal aorta. Kidney IR injury was performed by left renal pedicle occlusion for 35 min and simultaneous right nephrectomy. After 48 h, mice were sacrificed for the assessment of kidney function and structure. Results: According to the serum urea and creatinine, as well as histopathological measures, none of the exploited rIPC procedures could significantly protect against kidney IR injury. Conclusion: Based on our findings and the divergent results of previous animal and human studies, it can be concluded that the renoprotective effects of rIPC are minimal, if any, and are not robustly detectable.

Abstract
Despite many cardioprotective interventions have shown to protect the heart against ischemia/reperfusion injury in the experimental setting, only few of them have succeeded in translating their findings into positive proof-of-concept clinical trials. Controversial and inconsistent experimental and clinical evidence supports the urgency of a disruptive paradigm shift for testing cardioprotective therapies. There is a need to evaluate experimental reproducibility before stepping into the clinical arena. The CIBERCV (acronym for Spanish network-center for cardiovascular biomedical research) has set up the "Cardioprotection Large Animal Platform" (CIBER-CLAP) to perform experimental studies testing the efficacy and reproducibility of promising cardioprotective interventions based on a pre-specified design and protocols, randomization, blinding assessment and other robust methodological features. Our first randomized, control-group, open-label blinded endpoint experimental trial assessing local ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in a pig model of acute myocardial infarction (n = 87) will be carried out in three separate sets of experiments performed in parallel by three laboratories. Each set aims to assess: (A) CMR-based outcomes; (B) histopathological-based outcomes; and (C) protein-based outcomes. Three core labs will assess outcomes in a blinded fashion (CMR imaging, histopathology and proteomics) and 2 methodological core labs will conduct the randomization and statistical analysis.

Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) affords tissue protection in organs including kidneys; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we demonstrate an important role of macroautophagy/autophagy (especially mitophagy) in the protective effect of IPC in kidneys. IPC induced autophagy in renal tubular cells in mice and suppressed subsequent renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). The protective effect of IPC was abolished by pharmacological inhibitors of autophagy and by the ablation of Atg7 from kidney proximal tubules. Pretreatment with BECN1/Beclin1 peptide induced autophagy and protected against IRI. These results suggest the dependence of IPC protection on renal autophagy. During IPC, the mitophagy regulator PINK1 (PTEN induced putative kinase 1) was activated. Both IPC and BECN1 peptide enhanced mitolysosome formation during renal IRI in mitophagy reporter mice, suggesting that IPC may protect kidneys by activating mitophagy. We further established an in vitro model of IPC by inducing ‘chemical ischemia’ in kidney proximal tubular cells with carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP). Brief treatment with CCCP protected against subsequent injury in these cells and the protective effect was abrogated by autophagy inhibition. In vitro IPC increased mitophagosome formation, enhanced the delivery of mitophagosomes to lysosomes, and promoted the clearance of damaged mitochondria during subsequent CCCP treatment. IPC also suppressed mitochondrial depolarization, improved ATP production, and inhibited the generation of reactive oxygen species. Knockdown of Pink1 suppressed mitophagy and reduced the cytoprotective effect of IPC. Together, these results suggest that autophagy, especially mitophagy, plays an important role in the protective effect of IPC.

Abstract
Purpose To accurately estimate the effect size of both local or classic ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) and remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) using a pooling data set of 91 animals. Methods We combined all the available mouse data collected from our Institute over the last 3 years regarding (i) local IPC (4 cycles of 5 min of global ischaemia/reperfusion injury, IRI, followed by 35-min ischaemia and 2-h reperfusion) in the Langendorff-isolated perfused mouse heart model and (ii) RIPC (3 cycles of 5 min of limb occlusion followed by 40-min ischaemia and 2-h reperfusion) in the in vivo mouse model. Results Five independent experiments containing 27 control and 29 IPC mice were used to estimate the overall (i) local IPC effect, which reduced infarct size in the ex-vivo setting by a mean difference of 24.1% (95% CI 19.5, 28.6%) when compared to untreated controls (P < 0.001) and for (ii) RIPC, three independent experiments including data for 16 control and 19 RIPC mice were used to estimate that RIPC diminished infarct size in the in-vivo setting by a mean difference of 20.8% (95% CI 14.7, 26.9%) when compared to controls (P < 0.001). Conclusions Using a significant animal dataset, we found that local IPC reduces myocardial infarct size by 24.1% and RIPC by 20.8% in the ex vivo and in vivo mouse models of IRI, respectively. These differences may be used as reference values to either establish positive controls or to determine by how much myocardial infarct size can be reduced by novel cardioprotective interventions following an IRI insult.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) as a result of ischaemia-reperfusion represents a major healthcare burden worldwide. Mortality rates from AKI in hospitalized patients are extremely high and have changed little despite decades of research and medical advances. In 1986, Murry et al. demonstrated for the first time the phenomenon of ischaemic preconditioning to protect against ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). This seminal finding paved the way for a broad body of research, which attempted to understand and ultimately harness this phenomenon for human application. The ability of preconditioning to limit renal IRI has now been demonstrated in multiple different animal models. However, more than 30 years later, a safe and consistent method of protecting human organs, including the kidneys, against IRI is still not available. This review highlights agents which, despite strong preclinical data, have recently failed to reduce AKI in human trials. The multiple reasons which may have contributed to the failure to translate some of the promising findings to clinical therapies are discussed. Agents which hold promise in the clinic because of their recent efficacy in preclinical large animal models are also reviewed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemia-reperfusion injury is an unavoidable aspect of transplantation, as well as an important cause of acute kidney injury in clinical practice. Pre- and post-ischemic conditioning are strategies that may provide organs with resistance to major ischemic events. This study evaluates the effects of ischemic preconditioning and ischemic postconditioning, either separately or in combination, after an acute ischemia-reperfusion kidney injury. METHODS Forty Wistar rats received isoflurane anesthesia and were randomized into 5 groups: 1. the sham group underwent laparotomy; 2. the control group underwent laparotomy and 30 minutes of renal ischemia followed by reperfusion; 3. the preconditioning group underwent laparotomy, ischemic preconditioning, and 30 minutes of renal ischemia followed by reperfusion; 4. the preconditioning and postconditioning group underwent laparotomy, ischemic preconditioning, 30 minutes of renal ischemia, and ischemic postconditioning followed by reperfusion; and 5. the postconditioning group underwent laparotomy, 30 minutes of renal ischemia, and ischemic postconditioning followed by reperfusion. Serum analyses of creatinine and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were performed, and renal histology was examined 24 hours later. RESULTS Severe tubular injury and increases in creatinine were observed in all groups except the sham group. The control group and all ischemic conditioning groups were no different in the degree of renal injury and values of NGAL and creatinine after the injury. CONCLUSIONS Ischemic preconditioning and ischemic postconditioning, together or separately, are unable to preserve kidney function or exert a protective effect against tubular cell injury after an acute ischemia-reperfusion kidney injury.

Abstract
Partial nephrectomy (open or minimally invasive) usually requires temporary renal arterial occlusion to limit intraoperative bleeding and improve access to intrarenal structures. This is a time-critical step due to the critical ischemia period of renal tissue. Prolonged renal ischemia may lead to irreversible nephron damage in the remaining tissue and, ultimately, chronic kidney disease. This is potentiated by the incompletely understood ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). A key mechanism in IRI prevention appears to be the upregulation of an intracellular transcription protein, Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF). HIF mediates metabolic adaptation, angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, cell growth, survival, and apoptosis. Upregulating HIF-1α via ischemic preconditioning (IPC) or drugs that simulate hypoxia (hypoxia-mimetics) has been investigated as a method to reduce IRI. While many promising chemical agents have been trialed for the prevention of IRI in small animal studies, all have failed in human trials. The aim of this review is to highlight the techniques and drugs that target HIF-1α and ameliorate IRI associated with renal ischemia. Developing a technique or drug that could reduce the risk of acute kidney injury associated with renal IRI would have an immediate worldwide impact on multisystem surgeries that would otherwise risk ischemic tissue injury.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment is age-related and manageable only with early diagnosis and prevention. Moxibustion is widely accepted in East Asia as useful for preventing cognitive impairment. This systematic review of animal studies was conducted to verify the efficacy of moxibustion in preventing cognitive impairment and to elucidate the underlying mechanism. Randomized controlled animal trials that established the efficacy of moxibustion in preventing cognitive impairment were included in the analysis. Results of behavioral tests and the signaling pathways elucidated were extracted and a meta-analysis was conducted with the behavioral test results. The risk of bias was evaluated using 9 items, and reporting quality was evaluated using the ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting In Vivo Experiments) Guidelines Checklist. Ten trials involving 410 animals met the inclusion criteria. All studies reported the benefit of moxibustion in preventing cognitive deficits caused by Alzheimer's disease (AD). Among five studies using the Morris water maze test, a significant effect of moxibustion in decreasing the escape time was reported in three studies, increasing the crossing times in four studies, and prolonging the dwelling time in two studies. The effects of moxibustion were demonstrated to be mediated by an increase in the activity of neurotrophins and heat shock protein, modulation of the cell cycle, and suppression of apoptosis and inflammation. However, considering the small number of included studies, the lack of studies investigating entire signaling pathways, and a high risk of bias and low reporting quality, our results need to be confirmed through more detailed studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Topical hypothermia and local ischemic preconditioning have been shown to reduce renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury individually. We examined whether combination of both strategies lessens renal I/R injury. METHODS Post right nephrectomy, 40 male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to five experimental protocols performed in the left kidney: topical hypothermia without ischemia (TH), warm ischemia (IR), ischemic preconditioning followed by warm ischemia (IPC+IR), cold ischemia (TH+IR), and ischemic preconditioning followed by cold ischemia (IPC+TH+IR). Eight randomly assigned right kidneys constituted the control group. After 240 min of reperfusion, the left kidney was retrieved to evaluate histological changes, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzymes activity. Serum was collected to evaluate urea and creatinine. RESULTS IPC+TH+IR group revealed no difference to any other group subjected to ischemia in relation to histological changes, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzymes activity. Creatinine was lower in IPC+TH+IR group compared with IPC+IR, but showed no difference compared to TH+IR group. CONCLUSIONS Combination of local ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and topical hypothermia conferred no protection in renal I/R injury. Moreover, local IPC solely followed by warm ischemia impaired renal function more than warm ischemia alone.

Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate whether low energy shock wave preconditioning could reduce renal ischemic reperfusion injury caused by renal artery occlusion. Methods: The right kidneys of 64 male Sprague Dawley rats were removed to establish an isolated kidney model. The rats were then divided into four treatment groups: Group 1 was the sham treatment group; Group 2, received only low-energy (12 kv, 1 Hz, 200 times) shock wave preconditioning; Group 3 received the same low-energy shock wave preconditioning as Group 2, and then the left renal artery was occluded for 45 minutes; and Group 4 had the left renal artery occluded for 45 minutes. At 24 hours and one-week time points after reperfusion, serum inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), creatinine (Cr), and cystatin C (Cys C) levels were measured, malondialdehyde (MDA) in kidney tissue was detected, and changes in nephric morphology were evaluated by light and electron microscopy. Results: Twenty-four hours after reperfusion, serum iNOS, NGAL, Cr, Cys C, and MDA levels in Group 3 were significantly lower than those in Group 4; light and electron microscopy showed that the renal tissue injury in Group 3 was significantly lighter than that in Group 4. One week after reperfusion, serum NGAL, KIM-1, and Cys C levels in Group 3 were significantly lower than those in Group 4. Conclusion: Low-energy shock wave preconditioning can reduce renal ischemic reperfusion injury caused by renal artery occlusion in an isolated kidney rat model.

Abstract
Research on cardioprotection has attracted considerable attention during the past 30 years following the discovery of ischemic preconditioning with great advances being made in the field, particularly in the description of the molecular signalling behind this cardioprotective intervention. In a time when basic research is struggling to translate its findings into therapies in the clinical setting, this viewpoint has the intention of presenting to clinical and basic scientists how the reperfusion injury salvage kinase pathway has been described and dissected, as well as highlighting its relevance in cardioprotection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-life exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) has been implicated to play a role in the development of obesity. OBJECTIVE A systematic review with meta-analyses of experimental rodent studies was conducted to answer the following question: does early-life exposure to BPA affect the obesity-related outcomes body weight, fat (pad) weight, and circulating and tissue levels of triglycerides, free fatty acids (FFA), and leptin? METHODS The methodology was prespecified in a rigorous protocol using the Systematic Review Centre for Laboratory Animal Experimentation (SYRCLE) approach. Using PubMed and EMBASE, we identified 61 articles that met the inclusion criteria. The risk of bias and the methodological quality of these articles were assessed using the SYRCLE Risk of Bias tool, and a confidence-rating methodology was used to score the quality of evidence. Meta-analyses were performed using random effect models and standardized mean differences (SMDs), or, where possible, mean differences (MDs) were calculated. RESULTS Overall summary estimates indicated significant positive associations between BPA and fat weight [SMD=0.67 (95% CI: 0.53, 0.81)], triglycerides [SMD=0.97 (95% CI: 0.53, 1.40)], and FFA [SMD=0.86 (95% CI: 0.50, 1.22)], and a nonsignificant positive association with leptin levels [MD=0.37 (95% CI: -0.14, 0.87)] and a significant negative association with body weight were estimated [MD=-0.22 (95% CI: -0.37, -0.06)]. Subgroup analyses revealed stronger positive associations for most outcome measures in males and at doses below the current U.S. reference dose of 50μg/kg/d compared with doses above the reference dose. It should be noted that there was substantial heterogeneity across studies for all outcomes assessed and that there was insufficient information to assess risk of bias for most studies. CONCLUSIONS Findings from our systematic review suggest that early-life exposure to BPA may increase adiposity and circulating lipid levels in rodents. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1233.

Ann Surg Treat Res 2017; 93:209-216.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effects of ischemic preconditioning for different periods of time and to elucidate the optimal safe ischemic preconditioning time for renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice. Methods A total of 25 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into 5 groups (sham, I/R, ischemic preconditioning [IP]-3, IP-5, and IP-7 groups), in which the kidney was preconditioned with IP of various durations and then subjected to I/R injury (the last 3 groups). To induce renal ischemia, the left renal pedicle was occluded with a nontraumatic microaneurysm clamp for 30 minutes followed by reperfusion for 24 hours. The effects of IP on renal I/R injury were evaluated in terms of renal function, tubular necrosis, apoptotic cell death and inflammatory cytokines. Results Results indicated that BUN and creatinine (Cr) levels increased significantly in the I/R group, but the elevations were significantly lower in IP groups, especially in the IP-5 group. Histological analysis revealed that kidney injury was markedly decreased in the IP-5 group compared with the I/R group, as evidenced by reduced renal necrosis/apoptosis. In addition, IP significantly inhibited gene expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) and chemokines (monocyte chemoattractant protein-1). Western blot analysis indicated that the expression levels of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) were upregulated in the I/R group, while expression was inhibited in the IP groups. Conclusion Five-minute IP had the greatest protective effect against I/R injury.

Abstract
Meta-analyses are increasingly used for synthesis of evidence from biomedical research, and often include an assessment of publication bias based on visual or analytical detection of asymmetry in funnel plots. We studied the influence of different normalisation approaches, sample size and intervention effects on funnel plot asymmetry, using empirical datasets and illustrative simulations. We found that funnel plots of the Standardized Mean Difference (SMD) plotted against the standard error (SE) are susceptible to distortion, leading to overestimation of the existence and extent of publication bias. Distortion was more severe when the primary studies had a small sample size and when an intervention effect was present. We show that using the Normalised Mean Difference measure as effect size (when possible), or plotting the SMD against a sample size-based precision estimate, are more reliable alternatives. We conclude that funnel plots using the SMD in combination with the SE are unsuitable for publication bias assessments and can lead to false-positive results.

Abstract
Metformin improves cardiovascular prognosis in patients with diabetes mellitus, compared to alternative glucose-lowering drugs, despite similar glycemic control. Direct cardiovascular protective properties have therefore been proposed, and studied in preclinical models of myocardial infarction. We now aim to critically assess the quality and outcome of these studies. We present a systematic review, quality assessment and meta-analysis of the effect of metformin in animal studies of experimental myocardial infarction. Through a comprehensive search in Pubmed and EMBASE, we identified 27 studies, 11 reporting on ex vivo experiments and 18 reporting on in vivo experiments. The primary endpoint infarct size as percentage of area at risk was significantly reduced by metformin in vivo (MD -18.11[-24.09,-12.14]) and ex vivo (MD -18.70[-25.39, -12.02]). Metformin improved the secondary endpoints left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular end systolic diameter. A borderline significant effect on mortality was observed, and there was no overall effect on cardiac hypertrophy. Subgroup analyses could be performed for comorbidity and timing of treatment (infarct size and mortality) and species and duration of ischemia (LVEF), but none of these variables accounted for significant amounts of heterogeneity. Reporting of possible sources of bias was extremely poor, including randomization (reported in 63%), blinding (33%), and sample size calculation (0%). As a result, risk of bias (assessed using SYRCLE’s risk of bias tool) was unclear in the vast majority of studies. We conclude that metformin limits infarct-size and improves cardiac function in animal models of myocardial infarction, but our confidence in the evidence is lowered by the unclear risk of bias and residual unexplained heterogeneity. We recommend an adequately powered, high quality confirmatory animal study to precede a randomized controlled trial of acute administration of metformin in patients undergoing reperfusion for acute myocardial infarction.

Administration of mesenchymal stromal cells before renal ischemia/reperfusion attenuates kidney injury and may modulate renal lipid metabolism in rats. Sci Rep 2017; 7:8687.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have been demonstrated to attenuate renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) damage in rodent models. The mechanisms of such nephro-protection remain largely unknown. Furthermore, the optimal timing of MSC administration has been poorly investigated. Here, we compare the impact of MSC injection 7 days before (MSCD - 7) versus 1 day after (MSCD + 1) renal I/R in rats. Control groups received equivalent volumes of saline at similar time-points (SD - 7 and SD + 1). Right nephrectomy was performed, and left renal ischemia lasted 45 min. After 48-hour reperfusion, we observed significantly improved renal function parameters, reduced apoptotic index and neutrophil/macrophage infiltration in kidney parenchyma, and lower expression of tubular damage markers and pro-inflammatory cytokines in MSCD - 7 in comparison to MSCD + 1 and saline control groups. Next, comparative high-throughput RNA sequencing of MSCD - 7 vs. SD - 7 non-ischemic right kidneys highlighted significant down-regulation of fatty acid biosynthesis and up-regulation of PPAR-α pathway. Such a preferential regulation towards lipid catabolism was associated with decreased levels of lipid peroxidation products, i.e. malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, in MSCD - 7 versus SD - 7 ischemic kidneys. Our findings suggest that MSC pretreatment may exert protective effects against renal I/R by modulating lipid metabolism in rats.

Abstract
Background There is experimental evidence that lethal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is largely due to mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening, which can be prevented by cyclosporine A (CsA). The aim of our study is to show that a higher dose of CsA (10 mg/kg) injected just before ischemia or a lower dose of CsA (3 mg/kg) injected further in advance of ischemia (1 h) protects the kidneys and improves mitochondrial function. Methods All mice underwent a right unilateral nephrectomy followed by 30 min clamping of the left renal artery. Mice in the control group did not receive any pharmacological treatment. Mice in the three groups treated by CsA were injected at different times and with different doses, namely 3 mg/kg 1 h or 10 min before ischemia or 10 mg/kg 10 min before ischemia. After 24 h of reperfusion, the plasma creatinine level were measured, the histological score was assessed and mitochondria were isolated to calculate the calcium retention capacity (CRC) and level of oxidative phosphorylation. Results Mortality and renal function was significantly higher in the CsA 10 mg/kg-10 min and CsA 3mg/kg-1 h groups than in the CsA 3mg/kg-10 min group. Likewise, the CRC was significantly higher in the former two groups than in the latter, suggesting that the improved renal function was due to a longer delay in the opening of the mPTP. Oxidative phosphorylation levels were also higher 24 h after reperfusion in the protected groups. Conclusions Our results suggest that the protection afforded by CsA is likely limited by its availability. The dose and timing of the injections are therefore crucial to ensure that the treatment is effective, but these findings may prove challenging to apply in practice.

Abstract
Ischemic renal injury is a complex syndrome; multiple cellular abnormalities cause accelerating cycles of inflammation, cellular damage, and sustained local ischemia. There is no single therapy that effectively resolves the renal damage after ischemia. However, infusions of normal adult rat renal cells have been a successful therapy in several rat renal failure models. The sustained broad renal benefit achieved by relatively few donor cells led to the hypothesis that extracellular vesicles (EV, largely exosomes) derived from these cells are the therapeutic effector in situ We now show that EV from adult rat renal tubular cells significantly improved renal function when administered intravenously 24 and 48 hours after renal ischemia in rats. Additionally, EV treatment significantly improved renal tubular damage, 4-hydroxynanoneal adduct formation, neutrophil infiltration, fibrosis, and microvascular pruning. EV therapy also markedly reduced the large renal transcriptome drift observed after ischemia. These data show the potential utility of EV to limit severe renal ischemic injury after the occurrence.
