Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of cholinergic pathway on acute renal tubular cell injury induced by acute oxygen and glucose deprivation. Methods Rat kidney macrophages were isolated and cultured for constructing macrophages and renal epithelial cells co-cultivating model of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD), and the model cells were divided into three groups: OGD alone group, acetylcholine (ACh 100μmol/L)+OGD group and ACh + galantamine (Gal 10μmol/L)+OGD group. The cells underwent OGD treatment for 1 hour, and normally cultured for 24 hours. The expressions of TNF alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-10 in supernatant fluid were detected by ELISA, the renal tubular cell viability was determined by MTT assay, the expression of acetylcholine esterase (AChE) mRNA and protein were determined by RT-qPCR and Western blotting. The activity of AChE was determined by colorimetric method. Results The expressions of TNF alpha (pg/ml) in OGD, Ach+OGD group, Ach+Gal+OGD groups were 140.2±44.81, 119.46±4.42 and 103.31±1.62 respectively (P<0.05), those of IL-1β (pg/ml) were 172.26±13.51,144.34±5.53 and 119.37±11.42 respectively (P<0.05), and those of IL-10 (pg/ml) were 181.47±16.01, 173.62±10.12 and 188.36±8.73 respectively (P>0.05); The values of renal tubular cell proliferation were 55.02%±6.28%, 66.65%±6.47%, and 79.75%±4.22% respectively (P<0.01); the expressions of AChE mRNA in macrophages were 4.07±0.03, 4.22±0.15 and 3.98±0.29 respectively in the three groups (P>0.05); those of AchE protein were 0.66±0.07, 0.74±0.04 and 0.67±0.06 respectively (P>0.05); The activity of AChE (kU/L) was 0.51±0.02, 0.35±0.05 and 0.32±0.04 respectively (P=0.001, 0.001 and 0.368). Conclusions ACh and Gal could inhibit the secretion of inflammatory mediators and cholinesterase activity and can reduce the acute hypoxic renal tubular cell injury. The modulation of the cholinergic pathway in macrophages may be the important treatment method for acute renal injury in the future.
