Abstract:
Ischemia-reperfusion after neonatal asphyxia is a key factor in renal injury,which often leads to apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells.Apoptosis is an important form of injury for renal tubular epithelial cells after asphyxia.Smac/DIABLO is released to the cytosol in response to diverse apoptotic stimuli while mitochondrial targeting signal peptide is removed.In the cytosol,Smac/DIABLO interacts and antagonizes inhibitors of apoptosis proteins,thus allowing the activation of caspases and apoptosis.And thus it increases the ischemia-reperfusion renal injury,leading to acute renal failure.
