Heme oxygenase-1 induction contributes to renoprotection by G-CSF during rhabdomyolysis-associated acute kidney injury

Abstract: Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is renoprotective during acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by ischemia and cisplatin nephrotoxicity; however, the underlying mechanism is not entirely clear. Rhabdomyolysis is another important clinical cause of AKI, due to the release of nephrotoxins (e.g., heme) from disrupted muscles. The current study has determined the effects of G-CSF on rhabdomyolysis-associated AKI using in vivo and in vitro models. In C57BL/6 mice, intramuscular injection of glycerol induc… Show more

“…Recent studies indicate that blood-borne infiltrating cells play an important role in kidney protection. 55,56 In rhabdomyolysis, the cell-protective enzyme Hmox-1 is upregulated in renal proximal tubules 16,57 in the absence of HIF. 16 In conclusion, a genome-wide search for potentially renalprotective genes in early stages after the onset of AKI provides strong evidence for a metabolic shift toward anaerobic energy metabolism in tubules at risk as the main mechanism of renal protection through VHL knockout.…”

“…To induce rhabdomyolysis, the animals were intramuscularly injected in each thigh caudal muscle with 7.5 ml/kg 50% glycerol (99.5% m/v AnalaR Normapur; VWR International S.A.S., Fontenay sous Bois, France) or saline as a control. 42 To study the effect of clodronate, a macrophage-depleting drug, liposomal clodronate (Clodrosome) or the same volume of control liposome suspension (Encapsome; Encapsula Nanosciences LLC, Nashville, TN), was administered intraperitoneally to the animals as a full dose (40 mg/kg) the day before the glycerol injection or a half-dose (20 mg/kg) the day after the glycerol injection, according to previously published protocols. 43 …”
