Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major contributor to acute and chronic kidney failure, heart failure, and ischemic stroke. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of Iberin, known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiapoptotic properties, in a rat model of renal IRI. Twenty-four adult male rats were randomly divided into four groups: Group I (Sham group) underwent laparotomy without IRI induction; Group II (Control group) underwent laparotomy followed by renal artery clamping for 30 minutes to induce ischemia, followed by 2 hours of reperfusion; Group III (Iberin treatment group) received a pre-injection of Iberin (15 mg/kg) and underwent 30 minutes of ischemia followed by 2 hours of reperfusion; and Group IV (Vehicle-treated group) received the vehicle (ethanol) 1 hour prior to ischemia and reperfusion induction. Iberin was diluted with ethanol. Biomarkers associated with inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Iberin treatment significantly reduced levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6, Bcl-2-associated X protein (BAX), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), nuclear factor kappa p56, high mobility group B1, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin. Moreover, Iberin increased levels of heat shock protein and Bcl2 compared to the control and vehicle groups. Iberin treatment prolonged the ischemic tolerance of renal tissue, potentially preventing or delaying irreversible injuries. These findings highlight the potential of Iberin as a promising candidate for mitigating renal injury caused by ischemia-reperfusion, due to its ability to modulate inflammatory markers.

J Med Life 2023; 16:925-931. [PMID: 37675155 PMCID: PMC10478670 DOI: 10.25122/jml-2022-0309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Accepted: 02/05/2023] [Indexed: 09/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury is a critical clinical condition with a potentially fatal prognosis if not adequately managed. NHWD-870, a known Brd4 inhibitor with anti-cancer properties, exhibits additional attributes such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic effects, suggesting its potential to preserve renal tissue and mitigate damage during ischemic insults. We aimed to assess the potential nephroprotective effect of NHWD-870 by investigating its anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties in a rat model of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Male Wistar Albino rats (n=24) were randomly assigned to four groups: sham, control, vehicle, and NHWD-870. The control group experienced bilateral renal ischemia for 30 minutes, followed by 2 hours of reperfusion, while the sham group underwent a laparotomy without ischemia-reperfusion induction. The vehicle group received a DMSO injection, and the NHWD-870 group was administered 3mg/kg NHWD-870 orally 24 hours before repeating the control group protocol. Blood samples were collected after reperfusion for blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) analysis. ELISA method was used to assess IL-1B, BCL-2, PGF-2, and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways in renal tissue. Tubular injury severity was evaluated through histopathological analysis. NHWD-870 treatment improved renal function and histological preservation compared to the control and vehicle groups. BUN, sCR, IL-1B, BCL-2, and PGF-2 levels in renal tissue were significantly improved in the NHWD-870 group (p<0.05). Furthermore, the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway was significantly upregulated (p<0.01), and tubular injury severity was reduced in the NHWD-870 group. NHWD-870 demonstrated substantial nephroprotective effects in reducing renal damage induced by ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. These effects may be attributed to the anti-apoptotic properties, as indicated by increased levels of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, and the reduction in oxidative stress marker PGF-2 through upregulation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, along with the decrease in the inflammatory marker IL-1B.

Abstract
Ozone (O3) is a reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can interact with cellular components and cause oxidative stress. Following said logic, if O3 induces such a stressful milieu, how does it exert antioxidant functions? This is mediated by controlled toxicity produced by low concentrations of O3, which enhance the cell’s suppliance of antioxidant properties without causing any further damage. Therapeutic concentrations vary extensively, although 50 µg/mL is commonly used in experimental and clinical procedures, given that augmented concentrations might work as germicides or cause endogenous damage. O3 therapy has been shown to be effective when applied before or after traumatic renal procedures, whether caused by ischemia, xenobiotics, chronic damage, or other models. In this review, we focus on discussing the role of O3 therapy in different models of kidney damage associated with fibrosis, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation. We integrate and report knowledge about O3 in renal therapy, debunking skepticism towards unconventional medicine, explaining its proven therapeutic properties, and thus providing background for its use in further research as well as in clinical settings.

Abstract
Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) by increasing oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and tubular cell death. Oxypurinol, an active metabolite of allopurinol, is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent. To investigate the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanism of oxypurinol in ischemic AKI, C57BL/6 male mice were intraperitoneally injected with oxypurinol and subjected to renal I/R or sham surgery. We found that oxypurinol-treated mice had lower plasma creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels and tubular damage (hematoxylin-and-eosin staining) compared to vehicle-treated mice after renal I/R injury. Furthermore, oxypurinol treatment reduced kidney inflammation (i.e., neutrophil infiltration and MIP-2 mRNA induction), oxidative stress (i.e., 4-HNE, heme oxygenase-1 [HO-1], 8-OHdG expression, and Catalase mRNA induction), and apoptosis (i.e., TUNEL or cleaved caspase-3-positive renal tubular cells), compared to vehicle-treated mice. Mechanistically, oxypurinol induced protein expressions of HO-1, which is a critical cytoprotective enzyme during ischemic AKI, and oxypurinol-mediated protection against ischemic AKI was completely eliminated by pretreatment with tin protoporphyrin IX, an HO-1 inhibitor. In conclusion, oxypurinol protects against renal I/R injury by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis via HO-1 induction, suggesting its preventive potential in ischemic AKI.

Abstract
Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (i-IRI) is a rare disorder with a high mortality rate, resulting from the loss of blood flow to an intestinal segment. Most of the damage is triggered by the restoration of flow and the arrival of cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS), among others. Inactivation of these molecules before tissue reperfusion could reduce intestinal damage. The aim of this work was to analyze the preventive effect of allopurinol and nitroindazole on intestinal mucosal damage after i-IRI. Wag/RijHsd rats were subjected to i-IRI by clamping the superior mesenteric artery (for 1 or 2 h) followed by a 30 min period of reperfusion. Histopathological intestinal damage (HID) was assessed by microscopic examination of histological sections obtained from injured intestine. HID was increased by almost 20% by doubling the ischemia time (from 1 to 2 h). Nitroindazole reduced HID in both the 1 and 2 h period of ischemia by approximately 30% and 60%, respectively (p < 0.001). Our preliminary results demonstrate that nitroindazole has a preventive/protective effect against tissue damage in the early stages of i-IRI. However, to better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, further studies are needed.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by fast decline in renal function within a short period of time. Renal ischemic-reperfusion (I-R) injury is the main cause of AKI. This study aims to investigate the possible nephroprotective effect of lycopene on renal ischemic-reperfusion injury in mice model. Forty Swiss Albino adult male mice were randomly allocated onto one of the four study groups: sham group: mice had median laparotomy under anesthesia with no procedures performed, renal tissues and blood samples were collected. ischemic-reperfusion group (I-R-control): mice underwent median laparotomy under anesthesia, followed by 30 min bilateral renal ischemia. Renal tissues and blood samples were collected after 2 h from reperfusion. Vehicle-treated group: mice were pretreated with intra 1% dimethyl sulfoxide 30 min before inducing ischemia. Lycopene-treated group: mice were pretreated with 10 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection of lycopene 30 min before inducing renal ischemia. Renal tissues, and blood samples were collected after 2 h from reperfusion. Blood and tissue samples were collected to look for evidence of inflammation and necrosis. Blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine as well as plasma NGAL levels were significantly increased in the active control group (P ≤ 0.05), when compared to the sham group. Similarly, renal levels of Notch2/Hes 1, TLR 2, IL-6, Bax, and F2-isoprostane were significantly increased in the active control group as compared to the sham group (P ≤ 0.05). Moreover, lycopene treatment was found to be significantly effective in reducing the increased levels of these markers after I-R injury (P ≤ 0.05).

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) permeates a variety of diseases and is a ubiquitous concern in every transplantation proceeding, from whole organs to modest grafts. Given its significance, efforts to evade the damaging effects of both ischemia and reperfusion are abundant in the literature and they consist of several strategies, such as applying pre-ischemic conditioning protocols, improving protection from preservation solutions, thus providing extended cold ischemia time and so on. In this review, we describe many of the latest pharmacological approaches that have been proven effective against IRI, while also revisiting well-established concepts and presenting recent pathophysiological findings in this ever-expanding field. A plethora of promising protocols has emerged in the last few years. They have been showing exciting results regarding protection against IRI by employing drugs that engage several strategies, such as modulating cell-surviving pathways, evading oxidative damage, physically protecting cell membrane integrity, and enhancing cell energetics.

Abstract
AIMS The herbicide paraquat causes fatal lung toxicity by induction of xanthine oxidase, production of free radicals and inflammation. Febuxostat, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor and anti-gout has recently shown anti-inflammatory activity. Accordingly, this study was carried out to investigate whether febuxostat may attenuate paraquat-induced lung toxicity and to explore the possible underlying mechanisms. MAIN METHODS Rats were administered either vehicle, a single dose of paraquat (30 mg/kg, i.p.), febuxostat (15 mg/kg, oral), or both for 14 successive days. Serum LDH and sRAGE were estimated. Lung tissue xanthine oxidase activity, SOD, TAC, MDA, and RAGE, HMGB1 gene expression, PI3K/Akt and β-catenin protein expression, MMP-9, IL-8, VEGF and COX-2 gene expression were estimated. KEY FINDINGS Results showed that paraquat induced lung injury characterized by enhanced oxidative stress and inflammation, upregulated RAGE, HMGB1 gene expression, PI3K/Akt and β-catenin protein expression. Administration of febuxostat inhibited the deleterious effects of paraquat on lung through inhibition of xanthine oxidase activity and related oxidative stress, downregulation of RAGE/PI3K/Akt pathway, and suppression of β-catenin protein expression and its downstream inflammatory mediators. SIGNIFICANCE The present study showed that febuxostat may abrogate paraquat-induced lung toxicity and demonstrated a novel mechanism for its ameliorative effects.

Abstract
High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is released after focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), and aggravates brain tissue damage. Ginsenoside Rb1 (Rb1), isolated from Panax ginseng, has been reported to inhibit I/R-induced cell death in the brain. The present study aimed to investigate the protective ability of GRb1 on focal cerebral I/R rats and to explore its further mechanisms. A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model was established and treated with different doses of Rb1. The neurological deficits were examined after reperfusion, and TTC staining was applied to assess the infarct volume. Histology and TUNEL staining were performed to evaluate pathological changes and neuronal cell apoptosis in brain tissues. HMGB1 and levels of inflammatory factors and proteins, were examined by ELISA or western blotting. Rb1 treatment notably improved the neurological deficits in an MCAO model, accompanied by decreased infarct volume in the brain tissues. Histological examination revealed that the necrotic tissue area in MCAO rats was also diminished by Rb1 treatment. Apoptosis induced by cerebral I/R was also attenuated by Rb1 treatment via downregulation of cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-9 levels. HMGB1 release was inhibited by Rb1 treatment in MCAO rats, and the levels of nuclear factor-κB, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase and nitric oxide were also decreased. The present study suggests that Rb1 serves a protective role in I/R-induced cerebral-neuron injury, due to the decreased cerebral infarct volume of brain tissue. The mechanisms underlying these effects may be associated with the inhibition of HMGB1 inflammatory signals.

Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), an important cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), causes increased renal tubular injury and microvascular inflammation. 1,[Formula: see text]2,[Formula: see text]3,[Formula: see text]4,[Formula: see text]6-penta-O-galloyl-[Formula: see text]-D-glucose (PGG) from Galla rhois has anticancer, anti-oxidation and angiogenesis effects. We examined protective effects of PGG on IRI-induced acute AKI. Clamping both renal arteries for 45[Formula: see text]min induced isechemia and then reperfusion. Treatment with PGG (10[Formula: see text]mg/kg/day and 50[Formula: see text]mg/kg/day for four days) significantly ameliorated urine volume, urine osmolality, creatinine clearance (Ccr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). In addition, PGG increased aquaporine 1/2/3, Na[Formula: see text]-K[Formula: see text]-ATPase and urea transporter (UT-B) and decreased ICAM-1, MCP-1, and HMGB-1 expression. In this histopathologic study, PGG improved glomerular and tubular damage. Immunohistochemistry results showed that PGG increased aquaporine 1/2, and Na[Formula: see text]-K[Formula: see text] ATPase and decreased ICAM-1 expression. These findings suggest that PGG ameliorates tubular injury including tubular dysfunction and microvascular inflammation in IRI-induced AKI rats.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the effects of allopurinol and of post-conditioning on lung injuries induced by lower-limb ischemia and reperfusion. METHODS Thirty rats were used. They were divided in 5 groups: (1) group A: abdominal aortic dissection only, (2) group B: ischemia and reperfusion, (3) group C: administered allopurinol (100mg/Kg) a few hours before procedure, (4) group D: post-conditioned and (5) group E: administered allopurinol and post-conditioned. With the exception of group A, all groups were submitted to infrarenal aortic ischemia for 2 hours, and reperfusion for 72 hours. After euthanasia, lungs were removed for histological analysis. They were graded under two scores: pulmonary injury (neutrophil infiltration, interstitial edema, vascular congestion, and destruction of lung architecture) and lymphocytic score (neutrophil infiltration, lymphoid aggregate and secondary follicle). RESULTS On the pulmonary injury score, the degree of injury was smaller than in groups D and E, when compared to group B, p<0.05. Group C did not obtain the same result (p>0,05). On the lymphocytic score, there was no statistic difference among groups, p>0.05. CONCLUSION Both post-conditioning and the combination of allopurinol and post-conditioning were effective in remote lung protection induced by lower-limbs I/R. When used in isolation, allopurinol showed no protective effect.

Abstract
Upon solid organ transplantation and during cancer immunotherapy, cellular stress responses result in the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). The various cellular stresses have been characterized in detail over the last decades, but a unifying classification based on clinically important aspects is lacking. Here, we provide an in-depth review of the most recent literature along with a unifying concept of the danger/injury model, suggest a classification of DAMPs, and review the recently elaborated mechanisms that result in the emission of such factors. We further point out the differences in DAMP responses including the release following a heat shock pattern, endoplasmic reticulum stress, DNA damage-mediated DAMP release, and discuss the diverse pathways of regulated necrosis in this respect. The understanding of various forms of DAMPs and the consequences of their different release patterns are prerequisite to associate serum markers of cellular stresses with clinical outcomes.

Chen G, Jia P. Allopurinol decreases serum uric acid level and intestinal glucose transporter-5 expression in rats with fructose-induced hyperuricemia. Pharmacol Rep 2016; 68:782-6. [PMID: 27258609 DOI: 10.1016/j.pharep.2016.04.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2016] [Revised: 04/20/2016] [Accepted: 04/23/2016] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High fructose consumption is considered to be related to the increasing prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA). Glucose transporters (GLUT) 2 and 5 are crucial for fructose absorption and transporter. Effects of anti-HUA drugs, allopurinol (API) and benzbromarone (BBR), on expressions of GLUT5 and GLUT2 are not evaluated. METHOD Wistar rats were given 10% fructose in drinking water for 60 days to induce HUA, and 5mg/kg API and 10mg/kg BBR were intragastricly treated for 30 days. Serum level of uric acid and xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity in liver were determined. Expressions of GLUT2 and GLUT5 in intestine were analyzed by immunohistochemistry staining assay and Western blot assay. RESULTS Treatment with API or BBR significantly decreased the serum level of uric acid in HUA rats induced by fructose. Meanwhile, API treatment significantly reduced the XOD activity in liver and GLUT5 expression in intestine. However, BBR treatment did not show inhibitory effects on hepatic XOD activity and intestinal GLUT5 expression. In addition, treatment with API or BBR did not show any effect on GLUT2 expression in intestine. CONCLUSION API decreases serum level of uric acid in fructose-induced HUA rats. The mechanisms are associated with suppressing XOD activity in liver to reduce uric acid production, and inhibiting GLUT5 expression in intestine to reduce fructose absorption.
