Abstract

Cellular hypoxia has been proposed as a major factor in the pathogenesis of chronic renal injury, yet to date there has been no direct evidence to support its importance. Therefore, we examined cortical hypoxia in an animal model of chronic renal injury (murine adriamycin nephrosis; AN) by assessing nuclear localization of the oxygen-dependent alpha-subunit of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1alpha) in animals 7, 14, and 28 days after adriamycin. Results were assessed in conjunction with quantitation of the cortical microvasculature (by CD34 immunostaining) and cortical expression of VEGF. Cortical apoptosis was also examined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling staining. A dramatic and significant increase in nuclear localization of HIF-1alpha was seen 28 days after adriamycin in the context of severe glomerular and tubulointerstitial damage. Areas of nuclear HIF-1alpha staining did not colocalize with areas of cellular apoptosis. AN was also associated with a significant attenuation of the peritubular capillaries that was significant at 14 and 28 days after adriamycin. Cortical VEGF expression fell in a stepwise manner from day 7 until day 28 after adriamycin. In conclusion, these data are consisten...Continue Reading
