CD59a Deficiency Exacerbates Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Mice

Abstract: The terminal complement components C5a and the membrane attack complex are involved in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury in many organs. CD59 is the major regulator of membrane attack complex formation. Mice deficient in the Cd59a gene (mCd59a-/-) were used to investigate the role of CD59 in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Unilateral ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced by clamping the left renal pedicle for 30 minutes under general anesthetic. Mice were studied at 72 hours and 2 weeks afte… Show more

“…The experiment was repeated using IgG and Fab fragments of the 5D5 antibody, and LDH release was similar in the 2 groups. deficient in DAF and CD59 are susceptible to complement-mediated injury after renal I/R (19,20), likely due to complement activation along the vascular endothelium (19). However, extensive complement activation after I/R in wild-type mice occurs along the tubular epithelium.…”

“…DAF and CD59 expression is limited to the glomeruli and renal arteries (17,18). Deficiency in DAF alone or DAF and CD59 results in vascular complement activation after I/R and worse renal injury (19,20). However, substantial vascular complement activation does not occur in wild-type mice after I/R (2).…”

“…In contrast to humans, mice have two isoforms of CD59: CD59a, which is widely expressed, and CD59b, which is predominantly limited to the testes (6). We have shown previously that mice lacking CD59a are more susceptible to glomerular immune complex injury (7) and to tubular injury and interstitial inflammation following ischemia-reperfusion injury (8).…”
