A gradient model of renal ischemia reperfusion injury to investigate renal interstitial fibrosis.
Background: The progression from acute kidney injury to chronic kidney disease poses a significant health challenge. Nonetheless, a constraint in existing animal models of renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is the necessity for a severe injury, almost reaching a life-threatening level, to trigger the subsequent onset of renal fibrosis. Hence, we explored an adapted gradient approach to induce I/R injury, aiming to promote the progression of renal fibrosis while preserving the overall normal functioning of the kidney. Methods: In each group, 6-8 male C57BL/6 mice were used for model construction, with all undergoing sodium pentobarbital anesthesia and left kidney removal. Subsequently, a silk thread was passed beneath the lower renal branch, elevating the right kidney under a 20-g weight's tension via a pulley system for durations of 30, 40, or 60 min. Afterwards, we lowered the kidney, sutured the wound, and administered intraperitoneal saline. Mice in different groups were euthanized following reperfusion for 1, 3, 7, or 28 days. Results: We observed a complete cessation of blood flow in the lower pole, while an incomplete cessation in the upper pole in the elevated kidney. Significant renal impairment was evident on day 1 with a 60min ischemic period (187.0 ± 65.3 vs 17.9 ± 4.8 μmol/L serum creatinine in normal; p < .001), but not with 30 or 40min. On day 1, tubular necrosis and hyaline cast formation was evident in both lower and upper poles. On day 3, renal function returned to normal and remained normal through day 28. Histologic damage resolved in the upper pole over days 3 to 7, resulting in normal histology on day 28. By contrast, there was sustained tubular damage tubular in the lower pole on days 3 and 7, which failed to resolve and led to significant renal fibrosis by day 28. Conclusion: We created a model demonstrating clinically "silent" renal fibrosis.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology is an Open Access peer-reviewed journal publishing original papers describing research in the fields of immunology, pathology and pharmacology. The intention is that the journal should reflect both the experimental and clinical aspects of immunology as well as advances in the understanding of the pathology and pharmacology of the immune system.
