Inflammation in Nonimmune-Mediated Chronic Kidney Disease

Abstract: Regardless of its etiology, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by proteinuria, serum creatinine retention, glomerulosclerosis (GS), and tubulointerstitial damage. Notably, the last one has been correlated more closely with the evolution to kidney failure than the extent of glomerular injury. Tubulointerstitial inflammation comprises the activation of tubular epithelial cells, which release inflammatory mediators and chemokines promoting the influx of leukocytes in the renal parenchyma and the activa… Show more

“…153 The molecular mechanisms of inflammation associated with CKD are beyond the scope of this review; however, a summary of both innate and adaptive inflammatory processes in CKD has recently been published. 154 Elements of the adaptive response to acidosis, particularly upregulation of angiotensin II, have been associated with kidney infiltration by leukocytes. 121,122,155 In vitro and in vivo evidence suggests that angiotensin II promotes cell proliferation and fibroblast activation, worsening abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix in the damaged kidney and contributing to development of kidney fibrosis and inflammation.…”

“…The persistent low-grade inflammatory status that characterizes CKD plays a key role in the pathophysiology of the disease. Inflammation starts early in the onset of renal diseases [ 13 , 14 ] and worsens with disease progression [ 15 ], being particularly marked in hemodialysis patients [ 16 ]. Interestingly, inflammation can be identified either as a trigger or a consequence of CKD.…”

“…CKD pathogenesis’s leading and fundamental cause is linked to oxidative stress [ 2 ]. Fibrosis, tubulointerstitial inflammation, and glomerulosclerosis are structural changes seen in CKD patients’ glomeruli and tubular cells [ 3 ] The progression of CKD may advance to renal failure, and in that case, dialysis or kidney transplantation might be urgent and required [ 4 ].…”
