Transcription

1 Acute Kidney Injury: Basic Research Interactive Workshop Lisa Robinson, MD, FRCP(C) Division of Nephrology, The Hospital for Sick Children Renal Transplant Program, SickKids Transplant Centre Program in Cell Biology, SickKids Research Institute

2 Objectives 1. Review the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI) 2. Review mechanisms of repair following AKI 3. Understand limitations of current therapy for AKI 4. Explore new approaches to target AKI

3 AKI is a common problem Acute kidney injury is a common problem amongst hospitalized patients Many different causes, of which ischemic AKI is one of the most common AKI is associated with increased mortality Chertow G et al, J Am Soc Nephrol 2005; 16:

4 Causes of decreased regional blood flow in AKI Bonventre JV et al (2011), J Clin Invest

5 Central Features of Injury in Ischemic AKI Epithelial cell injury Endothelial cell injury Recruitment of pro inflammatory cells

6 Endothelial injury in ischemic AKI Bonventre JV et al (2011), J Clin Invest

7 Endothelial Cell Injury in AKI Endothelial cell ac8va8on Upregula8on of adhesion molecules expression of endothelial protein C receptor and thrombomodulin endothelial cell permeability Endothelial cell injury Altered vasomotor tone Exposure of prothrombo8c basement membrane Sharfuddin AA, Molitoris BA; Nat Rev Nephrol 2011; 7:

8 Epithelial Cell Injury in AKI Sublethal injury Loss of 8ght junc8ons ROS produc8on Release of proinflammatory chemokines Lethal injury Apoptosis Necrosis Autophagy Cast forma8on Sharfuddin AA, Molitoris BA; Nat Rev Nephrol 2011; 7:

15 Different Approach: Is it possible to generally inhibit pathologic attractant-mediated leukocyte migration?

16 Slit and Robo: Neuronal Guidance Cues Robo1 Ig repeats FNIII CC0 CC1 CC2 CC3 bind to LRRs and full-length Slit Determines repulsive response to Slit LRR Slit2 Kidney Heart Lung Slit is a potent repellent for projecting axons and migrating neurons in the developing nervous system. Slit and Robo are widely expressed outside of the nervous system.

17 Slit2 inhibits migration of many cell types Slit2 Neuronal cells Vascular smooth muscle cells PDGF Robo-1 PDGFR Cancer cells Dendritic Lymphocytes cells CXCL12 Cdc42-GDP or Rac-GDP srgap GEF Cdc42-GTP or Rac-GTP CXCR4 Actin polymerization Cell (2001) 107: Circ Res (2006) 98: Nature (2001) 410: Cell migration J Biol Chem (2004) 279: Oncogene (2006) 25: J Immunol (2003) 171:

18 Can Slit2 prevent AKI? Acute kidney injury Neutrophils Inflammation Monocytes/ macrophages

19 Neutrophils express Robo-1 Tole S et al (2009). J Leukoc Biol.

20 Monocytes and macrophages express Robo-1 Monocytes THP-1

21 Slit2 Inhibits Monocyte Chemotaxis unstimulated SDF-1α A B untreated C D Slit2

22 Slit2 inhibits neutrophil migration towards diverse attractants Tole S et al (2009). J Leukoc Biol.

23 How does Slit2 inhibit leukocyte migration?

24 Slit2 prevents activation of Rac and Cdc42 Monocytes Neutrophils

25 Slit2 prevents activation of Akt and Erk in monocytes p-akt p-erk p-p38
