Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of IL-10/TGF-β-modified macrophages on renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI).Methods Bone marrow-derived macrophages were modified ex vivo by IL-10/TGF-β to acquire M2c (a subset of activated macrophages).M2c were transferred into treated C57BL/6 mice by a single tail-vein injection at 6 h after renal IRI.Mice were killed on the day 3 after renal IRI.Blood samples were collected to check renal function.Kidneys were harvested to determine tubular necrosis and apoptosis by H&E staining and TUNEL assay.Immunofluorescence was performed to analyze the proliferating tubular cell nuclear antigen.Meanwhile,proinflammatory cytokines and regulatory T cells in renal tissues were analyzed with real-time PCR and flow cytometry.Results In comparison with M1,M2c expressed lower levels of MHC Ⅱ (P<0.01),CD86 (P< 0.01),TNFα (P<0.01) and IL-1β (P<0.01) and higher level of IL-10 (P<0.01).M2c significantly attenuated renal functional decline (P<0.01 or 0.05),structural injury (P<0.05),apoptosis of tubular cells (P<0.01) and inflammation factors infiltration (P<0.01 or 0.05).What's more,the cells could promote tubular cells proliferation (P<0.05) and regulatory T cells expression (P<0.01).Conclusion Our results demonstrated that M2c macrophages effectively protect against renal IRI and may become a therapeutic strategy for renal IRI.
