Abstract:
Objective To explore the changes of E-cadherin expression in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods For the in vitro analysis of epithelial ischemia,confluent monolayers of MDCK cells growing in DMEM were depleted of ATP for 4 h by incubation in PBS (supplemented with 1.5 mM CaCl2 and 2 mM MgCl2) containing 10 ?M antimycinA.For the in vivo studies of epithelial ischemic injury,adult Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to bilateral renal artery ligation.Renal pathological changes were measured by PAS stain.Location and expression of E-cadherin were detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot respectively.Results E-cadherin were primarily found in a linear pattern at the lateral portions of the plasma membrane in normal MDCK.After ATP depletion for 4 hours,the linear pattern altered and manifested by the appearance of intracellular staining.In invivo ischemia-reperfusion model rats,E-cadherin expression was changed from normal tubular epithelial cell basal membrane to cytoplasma.Western blot suggested that in sham-operated rats,E-cadherin was 120 ku lane vs 80 ku lane in ischemia for 60 min rats,while in ischemia for 45 min rats,both the 120 ku and 80 ku lanes were detected.Conclusion In renal ischemia-reperfusion,the location and expression of E-cadherin are obviously altered in vivo and in vitro study and E-cadherin are degradated as ischemia time prolongs.These changes may be the reason why tubular epithelial cell exfoliated from TBM in ischemia-reperfusion injury.
