Abstract
Background This experimental study was designed as a preclinical study for testing the hypothesis that intrarenal arterial (IRA) transfusion of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HUCDMSCs) therapy preserved the residual renal function of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in rat [induction by 5/6 nephrectomy of left kidney and right nephrectomy, followed by intraperitoneal administration of aminoguanidine (180 mg/kg) and streptozotocin (30 mg/kg)]. Methods Animals (n = 24) were categorized into group 1 (sham-operated control), group 2 (DKD), group 3 [DKD + HUCDMSCs (2.1 × 105/IRA injection at day 28 after CKD induction)] and group 4 [(DKD + HUCDMSCs (6.3 × 105/IRA injection)]. Results By day 60 after DKD induction, the kidneys were harvested and the result showed that the creatinine level, ratio of urine protein/urine creatinine and kidney injury score were lowest in group 1, highest in group 2 and significantly lower in group 4 than in group 3 (all p < 0.0001). The protein expressions of apoptotic (cleaved caspase-3/cleaved PARP/mitochondrial Bax), fibrotic (TGF-ß/p-Smad3), autophagic (ratio of LC3B-II/LC3B-I, Atg5/Beclin-1), oxidative stress (NOX-1/NOX-2/oxidized protein/p22phox), mitochondrial/DNA-damaged (cytosolic-cytochrome-C/DRP1/γ-H2AX) and inflammatory (MMP-9/TNF-α/p-NF-κB) biomarkers exhibited an identical pattern, whereas the protein expressions of angiogenesis factors (CD31/vWF/vascularity) exhibited an opposite pattern of creatinine level among the groups (all p < 0.0001). Histopathological findings demonstrated the renal tubular-damaged (KIM-1)/kidney fibrosis area/oxidative stress (8-OHdG + cells) expressed an identical pattern, whereas the podocyte components (ZO-1/synaptopodin/podocin) exhibited an opposite pattern of creatinine level among the groups (all p < 0.0001). No tumorigenesis or immune rejection event was identified. Conclusion IRA injection of xenogeneic MSCs was safe and effectively protected the residual renal function and architectural integrity in DKD rat.

Rolnick N, de Sousa Neto IV, da Fonseca EF, Neves RVP, Rosa TDS, Nascimento DDC. Potential implications of blood flow restriction exercise on patients with chronic kidney disease: a brief review. J Exerc Rehabil 2022; 18:81-95. [PMID: 35582687 PMCID: PMC9081410 DOI: 10.12965/jer.2244082.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Combining blood flow restriction (BFR) with exercise is considered a relevant, helpful method in load-compromised individuals and a viable replacement for traditional heavy-load strength training. BFR exercise may be particularly useful for those unable to withstand high mechanical stresses on joints resulting in skeletal muscle dysfunction, such as patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Current literature suggests that BFR training displays similar positive health benefits to exercise training alone for CKD patients, including maintenance of muscle strength, glomerular filtration rate maintenance, uremic parameters, inflammatory profile, redox status, glucose homeostasis, blood pressure adjustments, and low adverse reports. In this review of nine studies in CKD patients, we clarify the potential safety and health effects of exercise training with BFR compared to exercise training alone and recommend insights for future research and practical use. Furthermore, we introduce relevant gaps in this emerging field, providing substantial guidance, critical discussion, and valuable preliminary conclusions in this demographic of patients. However, based on the limited studies in this area, more research is necessary to determine the optimal BFR exercise programming.
