Wan M, Xiao J, Liu J, Yang D, Wang Y, Liu J, Huang L, Liu F, Xiong G, Liao X, Lu H, Cao Z, Zhang S. Cyclosporine A induces hepatotoxicity in zebrafish larvae via upregulating oxidative stress. Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2023; 266:109560. [PMID: 36720376 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpc.2023.109560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2023]
Abstract
As a powerful immunosuppressant, cyclosporine A (CsA) is widely used clinically. However, it has been found to have many side effects including nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity. Despite this, some patients cannot avoid using CsA during pregnancy and this can be detrimental to both the patient and the foetus. This study used zebrafish as a model animal to evaluate the hepatotoxic effects of CsA in zebrafish embryos. Zebrafish embryos cultured at 72 post-fertilization (hpf) were exposed to three concentrations of CsA at 2.5 mg/L, 5 mg/L, and 10 mg/L for 72 h. Liver developmental defects, smaller or missing swim bladder, slower heart rate, reduced body length, and delayed yolk sac absorption were observed. The level of oxidative stress (ROS) increased with the increase of CsA concentration. The indicators of related oxidative stress kinase activities including malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and SOD, all appeared to significantly increased. The use of astaxanthin (ATX) to inhibit oxidative stress was found to be useful for rescuing zebrafish hepatic development defects. Therefore, our results suggest that CsA induces zebrafish embryonic hepatic development defects by activating the oxidative stress. The study of CsA-induced hepatic development defects of zebrafish embryos is helpful for clinical evaluation of the safety of CsA and enables the search for new use without side effects.

Abstract
The development of metanephros is a complex and gradual process. The number, size and distribution of nephrons provide important information about the organization of the kidney. Stereology is the current gold-standard technique for the morphometrical evaluation of kidney structures. This study describes morphometric features of the kidney development in sheep using design-based stereological techniques aimed to introduce the sheep as a translational model in human nephrogenesis. Left kidneys of 16 sheep fetuses in four groups at 9-11, 12-14, 15-17, and 18-20 weeks of gestation were used in the present study. Systematic uniform random sections were obtained. The kidney volume, volume fraction of nephrogenic zone, cortex and medulla, and glomerular volume were estimated using point counting and Cavalieri's estimator. The total glomerular number was estimated using a physical disector/fractionator technique. The kidney and its compartments presented gradual changes with aging, with differences found in the last fetal ages. The kidney volume increased from 0.94 ± 0.22 cm3 to 8.6 ± 0.88 cm3 during development. The volume of cortex increased from 406 ± 85 mm3 to 5,151 ± 309 mm3 and the volume of medulla showed increase from 301 ± 91 mm3 to 3,426 ± 599 mm3 . The total glomerular volume increased from 13.8 ± 1.6 mm3 to 235 ± 44 mm3 . The total glomerular number increased from 4,683 ± 757 to 639 × 103 ± 11.6 × 103 . Our data might contribute to the knowledge of embryological urology and promote future experimental investigations in this field.

Abstract
Although pregnancy remains exceptional in women after heart, liver or lung transplant, obstetricians and nephrologists are regularly confronted with pregnancy in renal transplant recipients. National and international registries have described the epidemiology of maternal, foetal and neonatal complications, and transplantation societies have published recommendations on the monitoring of these high-risk pregnancies. In this review, we summarize the existing data on maternal and foetal complications of pregnancies in women after renal transplant, especially the management of immunosuppression. We also describe the few available data on the middle- and long-term outcomes of their children who were exposed in utero to immunosuppressive drugs.
