Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a crucial parameter in heart failure. Much less is known about the importance of tubular function. We addressed the effect of tubular maximum phosphate reabsorption capacity (TmP/GFR), a parameter of proximal tubular function, in patients with heart failure. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS We established TmP/GFR (Bijvoet formula) in 2085 patients with heart failure and studied its association with deterioration of kidney function (>25% eGFR decrease from baseline) and plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) doubling (baseline to 9 months) using logistic regression analysis and clinical outcomes using Cox proportional hazards regression. Additionally, we evaluated the effect of sodium-glucose transport protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibition by empagliflozin on tubular maximum phosphate reabsorption capacity in 78 patients with acute heart failure using analysis of covariance. RESULTS Low TmP/GFR (<0.80 mmol/L) was observed in 1392 (67%) and 21 (27%) patients. Patients with lower TmP/GFR had more advanced heart failure, lower eGFR, and higher levels of tubular damage markers. The main determinant of lower TmP/GFR was higher fractional excretion of urea (P<0.001). Lower TmP/GFR was independently associated with higher risk of plasma NGAL doubling (odds ratio, 2.20; 95% confidence interval, 1.05 to 4.66; P=0.04) but not with deterioration of kidney function. Lower TmP/GFR was associated with higher risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 2.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.37 to 5.73; P=0.005), heart failure hospitalization (hazard ratio, 2.29; 95% confidence interval, 1.08 to 4.88; P=0.03), and their combination (hazard ratio, 1.89; 95% confidence interval, 1.07 to 3.36; P=0.03) after multivariable adjustment. Empagliflozin significantly increased TmP/GFR compared with placebo after 1 day (P=0.004) but not after adjustment for eGFR change. CONCLUSIONS TmP/GFR, a measure of proximal tubular function, is frequently reduced in heart failure, especially in patients with more advanced heart failure. Lower TmP/GFR is furthermore associated with future risk of plasma NGAL doubling and worse clinical outcomes, independent of glomerular function.

Abstract
Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) and hypertension might contribute to the increased incidence of AKI. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of single and combined hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) preconditioning and NADPH oxidase inhibition on oxidative stress, kidney function and structure in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) after renal ischemia reperfusion injury. HBO preconditioning was performed by exposing to pure oxygen (2.026 bar) twice a day for two consecutive days for 60 minutes, and 24h before AKI induction. For AKI induction, the right kidney was removed and ischemia was performed by clamping the left renal artery for 45 minutes. NADPH oxidase inhibition was induced by apocynin (40 mg/kg b.m., intravenously) 5 minutes before reperfusion. AKI significantly increased renal vascular resistance and reduced renal blood flow, which were significantly improved after apocynin treatment. Also, HBO preconditioning, with or without apocynin treatment showed improvement on renal hemodynamics. AKI significantly increased plasma creatinine, urea, phosphate levels and lipid peroxidation in plasma. Remarkable improvement, with decrease in creatinine, urea and phosphate levels was observed in all treated groups. HBO preconditioning, solitary or with apocynin treatment decreased lipid peroxidation in plasma caused by AKI induction. Also, combined with apocynin, it increased catalase activity and solitary, glutathione reductase enzyme activity in erythrocytes. While AKI induction significantly increased plasma KIM– 1 levels, HBO preconditioning, solitary or with apocynin decreased its levels. Considering renal morphology, significant morphological alterations present after AKI induction were significantly improved in all treated groups with reduced tubular dilatation, tubular necrosis in the cortico-medullary zone and PAS positive cast formation. Our results reveal that NADPH oxidase inhibition and hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning, with or without NADPH oxidase inhibition may have beneficial effects, but their protective role should be evaluated in further studies.

Abstract
The donor glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measured before kidney donation is a strong determinant of recipient graft outcome. No tubular function markers have been identified that can similarly be used in donors to predict recipient outcomes. In the present study we investigated whether the pre-donation tubular maximum reabsorption capacity of phosphate (TmP-GFR), which may be considered a functional tubular marker in healthy kidney donors, is associated with recipient GFR at 1 yr after transplantation, a key determinant of long-term outcome. We calculated the pre-donation TmP-GFR from serum and 24-h urine phosphate and creatinine levels in 165 kidney donors, and recipient 125I-iothalamate GFR and eGFR (CKD-EPI) at 12 mo after transplantation. Kidney donors were 51 ± 10 yr old, 47% were men, and mean GFR was 118 ± 26 ml/min. The donor TmP-GFR was associated with recipient GFR 12 mo after transplantation (GFR 6.0 ml/min lower per 1 mg/dl decrement of TmP-GFR), which persisted after multivariable adjustment for donor age, sex, pre-donation GFR, and blood pressure and other potential confounders. Results were highly similar when eGFR at 12 mo was taken as the outcome. Tubular damage markers kidney injury molecule-1 and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin were low and not associated with recipient GFR. A lower donor TmP-GFR before donation, which may be considered to represent a functional measure of tubular phosphate reabsorption capacity, is independently associated with a lower recipient GFR 1 yr after transplantation. These data are the first to link donor tubular phosphate reabsorption with recipient GFR post-transplantation.

Abstract
Abstract
Ischemic acute kidney injury is characterized by renal vasoconstriction, filtration failure, tubular obstruction, tubular backleak and overproduction of angiotensin II and reactive oxygen species. Considering this complexity, the aim of our study was to investigate the effects of angiotensin II type-1 receptor blocker - Losartan and superoxide anion scavenger - Tempol, in a combined treatment on acute kidney injury in postischemic hypertensive rats.
The experiment was performed in anesthetized, adult male spontaneously hypertensive rats. The right kidney was removed and the left renal artery was occluded for 40 minutes. Experimental groups received combined treatment (Losartan + Tempol) or saline in the femoral vein 5 minutes before, during and 175 minutes after clamp removal.
Hemodynamics and biochemical parameters were measured and kidney specimens were collected 24h after reperfusion. Histological examination was performed by optical microscopy.
Combined treatment improves renal haemodynamics parameters which were exacerbated due to acute kidney injury. Acute kidney injury significantly decreased creatinine and urea clearance and increased lipid peroxidation in the plasma. Treatment with Losartan and Tempol induced a significant increase of creatinine and urea clearance. Lipid peroxidation in the plasma decreased and glutathione peroxidase enzyme activity in the erythrocytes increased after Losartan + Tempol treatment. This combined treatment reduced cortico-medullary necrosis and tubular dilatation in the kidney.
Our results indicate that synergism of Losartan and Tempol treatment could have beneficial effects on blood pressure and kidney function, during postischemic acute kidney injury development in experimental hypertension.

Acute superoxide radical scavenging reduces blood pressure but does not influence kidney function in hypertensive rats with postischemic kidney injury. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2014; 2014:512619.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in hypertensive surroundings. We investigated superoxide radical molecules influence on systemic haemodynamic and kidney function in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) with induced postischemic AKI. Experiment was performed in anesthetized adult male SHR. The right kidney was removed, and left renal artery was subjected to ischemia by clamping for 40 minutes. The treated group received synthetic superoxide dismutase mimetic TEMPOL in the femoral vein 5 minutes before, during, and 175 minutes after the period of reperfusion, while the control AKI group received the vehicle via the same route. All parameters were measured 24 h after renal reperfusion. TEMPOL treatment significantly decreased mean arterial pressure and total peripheral resistance (P < 0.05) compared to AKI control. It also increased cardiac output and catalase activity (P < 0.05). Lipid peroxidation and renal vascular resistance were decreased in TEMPOL (P < 0.05). Plasma creatinine and kidney morphological parameters were unchanged among TEMPOL treated and control groups. Our study shows that superoxide radicals participate in haemodynamic control, but acute superoxide scavenging is ineffective in glomerular and tubular improvement, probably due to hypertension-induced strong endothelial dysfunction which neutralizes beneficial effects of O2− scavenging.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the abundance of the organic anion transporter 5 (Oat5) and the sodium-dicarboxylate cotransporter 1 (NaDC1) in kidney and urine after renal ischemic reperfusion injury. Renal injury was induced in male Wistar rats by occlusion of both renal pedicles for 0 (Group Sham), 5 (Group I5R60), or 60 (Group I60R60) min. The studies were performed after 60 min of reperfusion. The expression of Oat5 and NaDC1 was evaluated by IHC and Western blotting. Oat5 and NaDC1 abundance and alkaline phosphatase activity (AP) were assayed in urine. A decreased expression in renal homogenates and apical membranes and an increase in urinary excretion of Oat5 and NaDC1 were observed in I60R60 rats, as well as alterations of other widely used parameters for renal dysfunction and injury (plasma creatinine, urinary AP activity, kidney weight, histological lesions). In contrast, in the I5R60 group, only an increase in urinary excretion of Oat5 and mild histopathological damage was detected. This is the first study on Oat5 and NaDC1 detection in urine. These results suggest that urinary excretion of Oat5 might be an early indicator of renal dysfunction, which is useful for detection of even minor alterations in renal structural and functional integrity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS The knowledge of molecular mechanisms determining drug pharmacokinetics in pathological states is relevant for the development of new therapeutic approaches. This study was undertaken to evaluate the cortical renal blood flow (cRBF) and the renal protein expression of the organic anion transporters (OAT1 and OAT3) in association with the elimination of organic anions in an early stage of renal ischemia-reperfusion. METHODS Ischemic acute renal failure (ARF) was induced in adult male Wistar rats by occlusion of both renal pedicles during 60 min, followed by 60 min of reperfusion (ARF group). Pair-fed sham-operated rats served as controls. The renal protein expression of OAT1 and OAT3 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry techniques and by Western blotting in renal cortex homogenates and in basolateral plasma membranes. A pharmacokinetic study of p-aminohippurate (PAH, a prototypical organic anion) was performed. cRBF was determined using fluorescent microspheres. RESULTS ARF rats displayed a significant decrease in systemic clearance and in renal excretion of PAH. OAT1 and OAT3 protein abundance showed a statistically significant reduction both in homogenates and in basolateral plasma membranes from ARF rats. Immunohistochemical studies confirmed the changes in the cortical renal expression of these transporters. ARF animals also showed a decrease in cRBF. CONCLUSIONS The decrease in PAH elimination observed in an early stage of renal ischemia-reperfusion in male Wistar rats might be explained by the sum of the lower OAT1 and OAT3 expression in renal basolateral plasma membranes plus the decrease in cRBF. These findings might have significant implications in the development of novel pharmacological strategies to be applied in the initial stages of ischemic ARF.

Abstract
Acute renal injury induces metabolic acidosis, but its specific effects on the collecting duct, the primary site for urinary ammonia secretion, the primary component of net acid excretion, are incompletely understood. We induced ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) acute renal injury in Sprague-Dawley rats by clamping the renal pedicles bilaterally for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 6 h. Control rats underwent sham surgery without renal pedicle clamping. I/R injury decreased urinary ammonia excretion significantly but did not persistently alter urine volume, Na+, K+, or bicarbonate excretion. Histological examination demonstrated cellular damage in the outer and inner medullary collecting duct, as well as in the proximal tubule and the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle. A subset of collecting duct cells were damaged and/or detached from the basement membrane; these cells were present predominantly in the outer medulla and were less frequent in the inner medulla. Immunohistochemistry identified that the damaged/detached cells were A-type intercalated cells, not principal cells. Both TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining and transmission electron microscopic examination demonstrated apoptosis but not necrosis. However, immunoreactivity for caspase-3 was observed in the proximal tubule, but not in collecting duct intercalated cells, suggesting that mechanism(s) of collecting duct intercalated cell apoptosis differ from those operative in the proximal tubule. We conclude that I/R injury decreases renal ammonia excretion and is associated with intercalated cell-specific detachment and apoptosis in the outer and inner medullary collecting duct. These effects likely contribute to the metabolic acidosis frequently observed in acute renal injury.

Abstract
We have previously shown that postischemic injury to renal allografts results in profound impairment of p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) extraction. To elucidate the cellular integrity of the human organic anion transporter 1 (hOAT1) in postischemic acute renal failure (ARF), immunohistochemical analysis of hOAT1 was performed in cadaveric renal allografts using confocal microscopy for three-dimensional reconstruction of serial optical images. Biopsy samples were obtained from 10 cadaveric renal allografts 1 hr after reperfusion during transplant operation. Control tissues were obtained from four living donors of healthy kidneys immediately before an arterial clamp was applied to the renal artery. Control tissues demonstrated hOAT1 distributed to basolateral membrane of proximal tubule cells. In contrast, maldistribution of hOAT1 to cytoplasm and/or diminution of the protein was noted in cadaveric allografts. Characteristics of maldistribution were variable: disappearance of lateral distribution, diffuse cytoplasmic aggregates, apical cytoplasmic aggregates, and disappearance of the staining. In addition, iothalamate and PAH clearances were performed on posttransplant days 3–7 in 18 recipients of a cadaveric renal allograft. PAH clearance was depressed <250 ml/min in all but three subjects. We conclude that reperfused, transplanted kidneys exhibit maldistribution of hOAT1 in proximal tubule cells, resulting in impairment of PAH clearance.

Abstract
The effect of ischemia induced acute renal failure (ARF) on the transport of phosphate (Pi) after early (15-30 min) and prolonged (60 min) ischemia in the brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) from rat renal cortex was studied. Sodium-dependent transport of Pi declined significantly and progressively due to ischemia. Western blot analysis of BBM from ischemic rats showed decreased expression of NaPi-2. A compensatory increase was observed in Pi uptake in BBMV from contralateral kidneys. There was no significant difference in NaPi-2 expression between BBMV from sham and contralateral kidneys. Early blood reperfusion for 15 min after 30 min ischemia caused further decline in Pi uptake. Prolonged reperfusion for 120 min caused partial reversal of transport activities in 30-min ischemic rats. However, no improvement in the transport of Pi was observed in 60-min ischemic rats after 120 min of blood reperfusion. Kinetic studies showed that the effect of ischemia and blood reperfusion was dependent on the Vmax of the Na-Pi transporter. Western blot analysis showed increased expression of NaPi-2 in the BBMs from ischemia-reperfusion animals. Further, a shift in the association of Na ions to transport one molecule of Pi was observed under different extracellular Na concentrations [Na]o. Feeding rats with low Pi diet and/or treatment with thyroid hormone (T3) prior to ischemia resulted in increased basal Pi transport. Ischemia caused similar decline in Pi transport in BBM from LPD and/or T3 animals. However, recovery in these animals was faster than the normal Pi diet fed (NPD) animals. The study suggests a change in the intrinsic properties of the Na-Pi transporter in rat kidneys due to ischemia. The study also indicates that treatment with T3 and feeding LPD prior to ischemia caused faster recovery of phosphate uptake due to ischemia-reperfusion injury.
