Exogenous Biological Renal Support Improves Kidney Function in Mice With Rhabdomyolysis-Induced Acute Kidney Injury
Background: Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is a clinical syndrome characterized by breakdown of skeletal muscle fibers and release of their contents into the circulation. Myoglobin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most severe complications of RM. Based on our previous research, exogenous biologi...

description | Background: Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is a clinical syndrome characterized by breakdown of skeletal muscle fibers and release of their contents into the circulation. Myoglobin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most severe complications of RM. Based on our previous research, exogenous biological renal support alleviates renal ischemia–reperfusion injury in elderly mice. This study aimed to determine whether exogenous biological renal support promotes renal recovery from RM-induced AKI and to preliminarily explore the mechanisms involved. Methods: A parabiosis animal model was established to investigate the effects of exogenous biological renal support on RM-induced AKI. Mice were divided into three groups: the control group (in which mice were injected with sterile saline), the RM group (in which mice were injected with 8 mL/kg glycerol), and the parabiosis + RM group (in which recipient mice were injected with glycerol 3 weeks after parabiosis model establishment). Blood samples and kidney tissue were collected for further processing 48 h after RM induction. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted via Gene Ontology analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis, functional enrichment analysis, and clustering analysis. Results: No mice died within 48 h after the procedure. Exogenous biological renal support attenuated the histological and functional deterioration in mice with RM-induced AKI. Bioinformatics analysis identified key pathways and proteins involved in this process. We further demonstrated that exogenous biological renal support ameliorated AKI through multiple mechanisms, including by suppressing the complement system; attenuating oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell death; and increasing proliferation. Conclusions: Exogenous biological renal support provided by parabiosis can improve renal function in RM-induced AKI by suppressing the complement system; decreasing oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell death; and promoting tubular cell proliferation. Our study provides basic research evidence for the use of bioartificial kidneys to treat RM-induced AKI. |
