Abstract:
:We examined whether activated protein C (APC) reduces ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced renal injury by inhibiting leukocyte activation. In a rat model, intravenous administration of APC markedly reduced I/R-induced renal dysfunction and histological changes, whereas intravenous administration of dansyl glutamylglycylarginyl chloromethyl ketone-treated factor Xa (DEGR-FXa; active-site-blocked factor Xa), heparin or diisopropyl fluorophosphate-treated APC (DIP-APC; inactive derivative of ARC) had no effect. Furthermore, APC significantly inhibited the I/R-induced decrease in renal tissue blood flow and the increase in the vascular permeability, whereas neither DEGR-FXa, heparin, nor DIP-APC produced such effects. Renal I/R-induced increases in plasma levels of fibrin degradation products were significantly inhibited by APC, DEGR-FXa, and heparin. These observations suggest that APC reduces I/R-induced renal injury independently of its anticoagulant effects but in a manner dependent on its serine protease activity. Renal levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), rat interleukin-8, and myeloperoxidase were significantly increased after renal I/R. These increases were significantly inhibited by APC but not by DEGR-FXa, heparin, or DIP-APC. Leukocytopenia produced effects similar to those of APC. These findings strongly suggest that APC protects against I/R-induced renal injury not by inhibiting coagulation abnormalities but by inhibiting activation of leukocytes that play an important role in I/R-induced renal injury. Inhibition of leukocyte activation by APC could be explained by the inhibitory activity of TNF-alpha. (Blood. 2000;95:3781-3787)
