Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Therapeutic hypothermia is commonly applied to limit ischemic injury in organ transplantation, during cardiac and brain surgery and after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In these procedures, the kidneys are particularly at risk for ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), likely due to their high rate of metabolism. Although hypothermia mitigates ischemic kidney injury, it is not a panacea. Residual mitochondrial failure is believed to be a key event triggering loss of cellular homeostasis, and potentially cell death. Subsequent rewarming generates large amounts of reactive oxygen species that aggravate organ injury. Recent Advances: Hibernators are able to withstand periods of profoundly reduced metabolism and body temperature ("torpor"), interspersed by brief periods of rewarming ("arousal") without signs of organ injury. Specific adaptations allow maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis, limit oxidative stress, and protect against cell death. These adaptations consist of active suppression of mitochondrial function and upregulation of anti-oxidant enzymes and anti-apoptotic pathways. CRITICAL ISSUES Unraveling the precise molecular mechanisms that allow hibernators to cycle through torpor and arousal without precipitating organ injury may translate into novel pharmacological approaches to limit IRI in patients. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Although the precise signaling routes involved in natural hibernation are not yet fully understood, torpor-like hypothermic states with increased resistance to ischemia/reperfusion can be induced pharmacologically by 5'-adenosine monophosphate (5'-AMP), adenosine, and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in non-hibernators. In this review, we compare the molecular effects of hypothermia in non-hibernators with natural and pharmacologically induced torpor, to delineate how safe and reversible metabolic suppression may provide resistance to renal IRI.

Abstract
Hibernators periodically undergo profound physiological changes including dramatic reductions in metabolic, heart, and respiratory rates and core body temperature. This review discusses the effect of hypoperfusion and hypothermia observed during hibernation on glomerular filtration and renal plasma flow, as well as specific adaptations in renal architecture, vasculature, the renin-angiotensin system, and upregulation of possible protective mechanisms during the extreme conditions endured by hibernating mammals. Understanding the mechanisms of protection against organ injury during hibernation may provide insights into potential therapies for organ injury during cold storage and reimplantation during transplantation.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase activity in microsomal fraction isolated from kidneys of winter hibernating ground squirrels was found to be 1.8-2.0-fold lower than that in active animals in summer. This is partially connected with a decrease in Na,K-ATPase protein content in these preparations (by 25%). Using antibodies to different isoforms of Na,K-ATPase α-subunit and analysis of enzyme inhibition by ouabain, it was found that the decrease in Na,K-ATPase activity during hibernation is not connected with change in isoenzyme composition. Seasonal changes of Na,K-ATPase α-subunit phosphorylation level by endogenous protein kinases were not found. Proteins which could be potential regulators of Na,K-ATPase activity were not found among phosphorylated proteins of the microsomes. Analysis of the composition and properties of the lipid phase of microsomes showed that the total level of unsaturation of fatty acids and the lipid/protein ratio are not changed significantly during hibernation, whereas the cholesterol content in preparations from kidneys of hibernating ground squirrels is approximately twice higher than that in preparations from kidneys of active animals. However, using spin and fluorescent probes it was shown that this difference in cholesterol content does not affect the integral membrane microviscosity of microsomes. Using the cross-linking agent cupric phenanthroline, it was shown that Na,K-ATPase in membranes of microsomes from kidneys of hibernating ground squirrels is present in more aggregated state in comparison with membranes of microsomes from kidneys of active animals. We suggest that the decrease in Na,K-ATPase activity in kidneys of ground squirrels during hibernation is mainly connected with the aggregation of proteins in plasma membrane.

Abstract
Certain environmental stressors can impair cellular ATP production to the point of harming or even killing an animal. Some exceptional animals employ strategies that maintain the balance between ATP production and consumption, allowing them to tolerate prolonged exposure to stressors such as hypoxia and anoxia. Anoxia- and hypoxia-tolerant animals reduce ATP consumption by ion-motive ATPases while concomitant reductions in passive ion flux reduce the demand for ion pumping and maintain transmembrane ion gradients. Reductions in gene transcription and protein turnover decrease ATP demand in hibernating and hypoxia-tolerant animals. Proton leak uncouples mitochondrial substrate oxidation from ATP synthesis and accounts for a considerable proportion of cellular energy demand, but there is little evidence that the proton permeability of inner mitochondrial membranes decreases in animals that tolerate energy stress. Indeed in some cases proton leak increases, possibly reducing reactive oxygen species production. Because substrate oxidation is important to the control of cellular metabolism, the downregulation of ATP supply pathways contributes significantly to metabolic suppression under energy stress. Mechanisms that coordinate the downregulation of both ATP supply and demand pathways include AMP kinase and ATP-sensitive ion channels. Strategies employed by animals tolerant to one energy stress often convey "cross-tolerance" to completely different stresses.

Abstract
SUMMARYA cDNA library constructed from kidney of the thirteen-lined squirrel, Spermophilus tridecemlineatus, was differentially screened for genes that were upregulated during hibernation. A clone encoding cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 was found and confirmed to have been upregulated by northern blotting. Differential expression of Cox1 mRNA occurred in multiple organs during hibernation; in hibernating animals transcript levels were twofold higher in kidney and fourfold higher in heart and brown adipose tissue than in euthermic animals, but were unchanged in skeletal muscle. Transcript levels of mitochondrial-encoded ATP synthase 6/8 were similarly upregulated in these tissues whereas transcript levels of the nuclear encoded subunits Cox4 and ATP synthase α did not change during hibernation. Immunoblot analysis revealed a 2.4-fold increase in Cox 1 protein and a slight decrease in Cox 4 protein in kidney of hibernating squirrels, compared with euthermic controls. Hibernating mammals may increase the expression of the mitochondrial genome in general, and Cox1specifically, to prevent or minimize the damage to the electron transport chain caused by the cold and ischemia experienced during a hibernation bout.

Abstract
Maintenance of skeletal muscle energy status during hibernation in ground squirrels, Spermophilus lateralis, was accompanied by a decrease in Na+K+-ATPase pump activity. Energy charge was maintained (0.89) during hibernation at the expense of total adenylates (decreased by 41%). Muscle Na+K+-ATPase activity was 9.1 U/mg protein in euthermic controls but decreased by 60% during hibernation. Enzyme activity was similarly suppressed in vitro when extracts of control muscle were incubated with ATP plus second messengers of protein kinases A, G or C whereas stimulation of protein phosphatases in muscle extracts from hibernators increased Na+K+-ATPase activity. Additional studies confirmed that suppression and reactivation of the enzyme in euthermic muscle extracts can be achieved with protein kinase A and alkaline phosphatase treatments, respectively, and indicated that phosphorylation changes the ATP dependency of the enzyme. Thus, hibernation-induced suppression of Na+K+-ATPase activity in muscle and other organs of ground squirrels, which is a key part of the overall suppression of metabolic rate that constitutes torpor, appears to be regulated via reversible protein phosphorylation.

Abstract
The temperature dependence and the ouabain sensitivity of Na,K-ATPase was examined in the nephron of normal, cold-exposed, and hibernating jerboas. The transport and hydrolytic activity of renal Na,K-ATPase displayed similar temperature dependence in rats and normal jerboas. Cold-resistance of Na,K-ATPase appeared in cold-exposed jerboas and further increased during hibernation. Three subpopulations of Na,K-ATPase displaying very high (Ki approximately 10(-13) M), high (Ki approximately 10(-9) M) and low sensitivity to ouabain (Ki approximately 10(-6) M) were detected in the thick ascending limb and collecting duct of jerboas. In thick ascending limbs, the subpopulation of very high sensitivity to ouabain disappeared in cold-exposed animals, which accounted for the previously reported decrease in Na,K-ATPase activity. In collecting ducts of cold-exposed animals, the subpopulation of very high sensitivity to ouabain also disappeared, but the resulting decrease in activity was overbalanced by the appearance of the subpopulation of high sensitivity.
