EUK-134 reduces renal dysfunction and injury caused by oxidative and nitrosativ...
Chatterjee, PK; Patel, NSA; Kvale, EO; Brown, PAJ; Stewart, KN; Mota-Filipe, H; Sharpe, MA; Di Paola, R; Cuzzocrea, S; Thiemermann, CBackground/Aims: Oxidative and nitrosative stress plays important roles in the pathogenesis of renal ischemia/ reperfusion (I/R) injury. Here we investigate the effect of EUK-134, a synthetic superoxide dismutase and catalase mimetic, (i) on renal dysfunction and injury caused by I/R in vivo and (ii) on proximal tubular cell (PTC) injury and death caused by oxidative and nitrosative stress. Methods: Rats, subje...
The tyrosine kinase inhibitor tyrphostin AG126 reduces renal ischemia/reperfusi...
Chatterjee, PK; Patel, NSA; Kvale, EO; Brown, PAJ; Stewart, KN; Britti, D; Cuzzocrea, S; Mota-Filipe, H; Thiemermann, CBackground. We investigate the effects of tyrphostin AG126, an inhibitor of tyrosine kinase activity, on the renal dysfunction and injury caused by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) of the kidney. Methods. Tyrphostin AG126 (5 mg/kg intraperitoneally) was administered to male Wistar rats 30 minutes prior to bilateral renal ischemia for 45 minutes followed by reperfusion for up to 48 hours. Biochemical markers of renal ...
High density lipoprotein (HDL) reduces renal ischemia/reperfusion injury
Thiemermann, C; Patel, NSA; Kvale, EO; Cockerill, GW; Brown, PAJ; Stewart, KN; Cuzzocrea, S; Britti, D; Mota-Filipe, H; Chatterjee, PKHigh-density lipoproteins (HDL) have been shown to reduce organ injury and mortality in animal models of shock via modulation of the expression of adhesion molecules and pro-inflammatory enzymes. As renal inflammation plays an important role in the development of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of the kidney, the aim of this study was to investigate the ability of HDL to alleviate renal dysfunction and injury...
GW274150, a potent and highly selective inhibitor of iNOS, reduces experimental...
Chatterjee, PK; Patel, NSA; Sivarajah, A; Kvale, EO; Dugo, L; Cuzzocrea, S; Brown, PAJ; Stewart, KN; Mota-Filipe, H; Britti, D; Yaqoob, MMBackground. Generation of nitric oxide (NO) by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) may contribute to renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of GW274150, a novel, highly selective, potent and long-acting inhibitor of iNOS activity in rat and mouse models of renal I/R. Methods. Rats were administered GW274150 (5 mg/kg intravenous bolus administered 30 minu...

Chatterjee, PK; Patel, NSA; Kvale, EO; Cuzzocrea, S; Brown, PAJ; Stewart, KN; Mota-Filipe, H; Thiemermann, CBackground. Nitric oxide (NO), produced via inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), is implicated in the pathophysiology of renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the iNOS inhibitors L-N-6-(1-iminoethyl)lysine (L-NIL) and aminoethyl-isothiourea (AE-ITU) on (a) renal dysfunction and injury mediated by bilateral I/R of rat kidneys in vivo and (b) cytokine-...
