ABSTRACT
|
|---|
In vitro studies have suggested that targeting interleukin (IL)-1 and
tumor necrosis factor (TNF) can be used to regulate intercellular
adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1
(VCAM-1) and potentially treat kidney inflammation. We therefore
evaluated ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 regulation in knockout (KO) mice deficient
in both IL-1 receptor 1 (R1) and TNF-R1 during renal ischemia
reperfusion injury. ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 mRNA expression was measured with
specific murine probes and Northern blotting
(n =4/group). Protein expression was measured using
immunohistochemistry. Serum creatinine (SCr), tubular histology, and
neutrophil infiltration into postischemic kidneys were also quantified.
ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 mRNA expression increased in both wild-type (WT) and
KO mice at 2, 6, and 24 h. Protein expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1
was also increased at 24 h postischemia. SCr levels and tubular
necrosis scores were comparable in WT and KO mice at 24 and 48 h.
Neutrophil migration in KO mice was decreased at 24 h but
comparable to WT at 48 h. These data demonstrate that IL-1 and TNF
are not essential for postischemic increases in ICAM-1 and
VCAM-1.

INTRODUCTION
|
|---|
The pathophysiological mechanisms leading to renal ischemia
reperfusion injury (IRI) with delayed allograft function are not fully
understood. It has been suggested that the outer-medullary vascular
congestion seen in ischemic acute renal failure [1
]
might result partly from intercellular adhesion molecule-1
(ICAM-1)-mediated adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium.
Obstruction of the venous vasa recta and/or leukocyte-mediated increase
in endothelial permeability leads to erythrocyte aggregation and edema
[1
, 2
]. During reduced flow, neutrophils
adhere to vascular endothelium and occlude capillaries. Flow
restoration may, however, fail to dislodge the adherent cells.
Reperfusion of the kidney also triggers a cascade of responses
including changes in cytokine synthesis, cell adhesion, leukocyte
migration, and leukocyte-mediated tissue damage. Chemotactic stimuli
released by ischemic tissue may also lead to leukocyte infiltration
[3
].
ICAM-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) are expressed by
leukocytes and endothelial cells. ICAM-1 is found in abundance on
endothelial, epithelial, and mesangial cells and fibroblasts. It is
up-regulated in vitro and in vivo by cytokines such as interferon
(IFN)-
, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and interleukin (IL)-1
[4
]. Interruption of the ICAM-1 pathway has been seen to
lead to profound protection in various organ models of IRI
[5
6
7
8
]. The presumed mechanism of protection has been
the blockade of intravascular adhesion and emigration of neutrophils to
postischemic tissue. However, ICAM-1 has also been shown to mediate
other functions, such as signal transduction [9
] and
antigen presentation [10
]. VCAM-1 is constitutively
expressed by glomerular parietal epithelial cells and is also detected
on a wide variety of cells after stimulation with cytokines
[4
]. VCAM-1 has been shown to be important in
recruitment of mononuclear cells to inflamed tissue
[11
]. This finding is of significance in that increasing
evidence suggests a role of mononuclear leukocytes in renal IRI
[12
, 13
]. A number of studies have shown a
direct role of ICAM-1 in IRI. ICAM-1 antibodies or antibodies against
the ICAM-1 receptor, CD11/CD18, have been found to protect against both
the functional impairment and histological changes associated with
ischemic acute renal failure in the rat [14
15
16
].
Interruption of the ICAM-1 pathway protects against renal IRI
presumably by blocking the migration of leukocytes to postischemic
tissue, as well as by attenuating microvascular obstruction.
ICAM-1 expression can be up-regulated by many cytokines and agonists,
including IL-1, TNF, and IFN-
[10
,
17
18
19
]. IL-1 and TNF are increased in the circulatory
system [20
]. We have also recently found that expression
of IL-1 and TNF is increased in a murine model of renal IRI
[21
, 22
]. Administration of IL-1 to rats
results in increased neutrophil infiltration of the kidney
[23
]. A recent study has also shown that IL-1 and TNF
can regulate expression of leukocyte-binding adhesion molecules in
endothelial cells derived from human glomerulus [24
].
Either IL-1 or TNF produced by the postischemic kidney could
up-regulate renal ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression. Blocking either one
individually may be ineffective in regulating ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 because
the the other pathway is available to compensate. We hypothesized,
therefore, that combined IL-1 and TNF blockade would be more likely to
reduce ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression after IRI, as well as less
postischemic renal injury. To test these hypotheses, we evaluated
ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression in mice deficient in both IL-1-R1 and
TNF-R1 after subjecting them to renal IRI.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
|
|---|
Knockout mice
The knockout (KO) mice used in this study were IL-1R1- and
TNF-R1-deficient. Wild-type mice were littermates of the KOs. KO mice
lack the major IL-1 receptor as well as the TNF receptor p55. Tail
samples were obtained from these mice and analyzed by PCR to confirm
the absence of targeted transcripts.
RNA isolation and analysis
Excised tissue was snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and then
pulverized using a Bessman tissue pulverizer. Total cellular RNA was
isolated by cellular lysis in 4 M guanidinium isothiocyanate followed
by a CsCl gradient [25
]. Total RNA was separated on a
1% agarose gel containing 1.1% formaldehyde, then transferred to a
nylon membrane, and UV cross-linked to the membrane using a Stratagene
UV cross-linker 2400 (Stratagene, San Diego, CA). Blots were hybridized
with 32P cDNA probes that were randomly primed
(Prime-a-Gene; ProMega, Madison, WI) and then purified on NAP-5 columns
(Pharmacia) for 12 h in QuikHyb solution (Stratagene). Blots were
washed twice at 25°C in 2x saline sodium citrate (SSC) with 0.1%
sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) for 10 min each and then washed one time
in 0.1% SSC with 0.1% SDS at 60°C for 20 min. Hybridizing bands
were visualized and quantitated using a Molecular Dynamics
PhosphorImager (Molecular Dynamics, Sunnyvale, CA). The blots
were stripped by pouring boiling 0.1% SSC + 0.1% SDS solution on
the blots and incubating under gentle agitation for 5 min. Blots were
reprobed with glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH)
(Clontech, Palo Alto, CA) to confirm equal RNA loading.
Renal ischemia reperfusion model
This model of warm ischemia has been previously described in
depth [26
]. Briefly, mice weighing 2535 g were
anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital (3560 mg/kg).
Bilateral flank incisions were made, and the kidneys were exposed. The
renal pedicles were bluntly dissected, and a nontraumatic vascular
clamp (Roboz microaneurysm clamp; Roboz Surgical Instruments,
Washington, DC) was applied across the pedicles for 30 min. At 2, 6,
24, and 48 h after ischemia, mice were euthanized, blood was
collected by cardiac puncture, and kidney tissue samples were obtained.
Pathological evaluation
Kidneys were cut coronally and embedded in paraffin. Four-µm
sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and Leder stains,
reviewed in a blinded fashion by a renal pathologist and nephrologist,
and scored with a previously described semiquantitative scale designed
to evaluate the degree of tubular necrosis, with higher scores
representing more severe damage [3
, 14
,
16
]. A value of 0 is designated normal tissue, 1 is
minimal necrosis (<5% involvement), 2 is mild necrosis (525%
involvement), 3 is moderate necrosis (2575% involvement), and 4 is
severe necrosis (>75% involvement). Polymorphonuclear (PMN) cell
infiltration into the interstitium was also quantified in the outer
medulla, which is recognized as the area of maximal PMN cell migration.
This was performed in 10 randomly selected high-power fields of the
corticomedullary junction, as previously described [14
,
16
].
Immunohistochemistry
Sections (5 µm) were prepared on a cryostat and mounted on
Fisher Superfrost Plus slides, fixed in ice-cold acetone for 12 min,
and allowed to air dry. These sections were then blocked with 1:100
normal rabbit serum in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing
Vector avidin DH (Vector Laboratories Inc., Burlingame, CA). Primary
antibodies were then added to the sections; KAT-1 (rat anti-mouse
ICAM-1, Biosource International, Camarillo, CA) and 429 (MVCAM.A) (rat
anti-mouse VCAM-1, PharMingen, San Diego, CA) and incubated at room
temperature for 1 h. Background-staining isotype controls
consisted of rat IgG1.K in place of the monoclonal antibody. Sections
were then rinsed in PBS and treated with 3% hydrogen peroxide in
Biotin (10 µg/L of PBS) to block the biotin-binding sites. After
three washes in PBS, the slides were incubated in a biotin-conjugated
rabbit anti-rat IgG secondary antibody (Vector Laboratories Inc,
Burlingame, CA) for 35 min at room temperature. Sections were once
again washed and incubated for 45 min in Vector Elite ABC (Vector
Laboratories Inc, Burlingame, CA). Sections were washed and developed
with 3,3-diaminobenzidine (Vector Laboratories Inc, Burlingame, CA),
counterstained with hematoxylin, and mounted using permount (Fisher
Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA). Tissue sections were examined for positive
staining, and representative photos were taken.
Renal function
Renal function was assessed by measurement of serum using a 550
Express autoanalyzer (Ciba Corning, Oberlin, OH). Serum creatinine, a
byproduct of muscle metabolism, is normally excreted by the kidneys. In
the absence of changes in muscle breakdown, serum creatinine levels
correlate well with glomerular filtration rate. The degree of renal
dysfunction can therefore be assessed by a rise in serum creatinine
after injury.
Statistical analysis
Data are presented as means ± SE. Statistical
analysis comparing control and KO groups was performed by analysis of
variance and Fishers least-significant-difference test. Significance
was set at P < 0.05.

Postischemia up-regulation of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1
Northern blots of renal mRNA from wild-type and KO mice are
represented in Figure 2
. The KO mice showed up-regulation of both ICAM-1 mRNA and VCAM-1
mRNA at 2 and 6 h postischemia, with further up-regulation of
ICAM-1 at 24 h. Wild-type mice also showed up-regulation of ICAM-1
and VCAM-1 expression 2 and 6 h postischemia. G3PDH-1 expression,
which was used as a control for gel loading, was constant in both
wild-type and KO mice postischemia.

normal kidneys were calculated and represent 100%. Wild-type and KO
levels were determined and quantified according to baseline values of
100% and corrected for changes in loading with G3PDH-1. With
increasing time postischemia, there was a steady increase in ICAM-1
mRNA levels in the KO mice. In wild-type mice, an increase in ICAM-1
mRNA also occurred. However, in this case there was a sharp increase in
ICAM-1 mRNA at 2 h, with a decline in ICAM-1 levels at 6 and
24 h postischemia. A significant difference in ICAM-1 levels
between wild-type and KO mice was observed only at 24 h
postischemia (*P <0.05). However both groups did show a
significant increase in mRNA expression over time.

Expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 protein in postischemic tissue
Figure 5
is a representative diagram of ICAM-1 protein staining in
postischemic tissue obtained from wild-type and KO mice. In normal (no
IRI) wild-type kidney tissue (Fig. 5B)
, there is a low level of
expression of ICAM-1. At 24 h postischemia (Fig. 5C)
, there is an
increase in ICAM-1 expression when compared with that at 0 h.
Normal KO tissue at 0 h IRI (Fig. 5E)
also shows similar staining
to wild-type kidney tissue. The KO 24-h-postischemic tissue (Fig. 5F)
had an increase in ICAM-1 expression similar to that in the wild-type
tissue.

VCAM-1 was found to be minimally expressed in normal wild-type and KO
mouse kidney tissue (Fig. 6B
and E
). After injury, there is an increase in VCAM-1
expression similar to that seen with ICAM-1 in wild-type mice (Fig. 6C)
. The same was seen in the KO mouse tissue (Fig. 6F)
. There was no
significant difference in the amount of staining observed between
wild-type and KO mouse tissue at 0 or 24 h postischemia.

Renal function after IRI in KO mice
Serum creatinine levels (Fig. 7

creatinine in both groups was increased at 24 and 48 h
postischemia and then returned to baseline levels at 72 h.

Neutrophil migration to postischemic kidney tissue
Neutrophil content of postischemic kidneys of wild-type mice was
prominent at 24 h (Fig. 8
) and then was decreased at 48 h as previously described
[14
]. KO mice had a reduced neutrophil influx at 24 h compared with that of wild-type mice. This difference was not evident
at 48 h (n =4 for both). Renal neutrophils were
evaluated at baseline (preischemia) and in sham-operated mice. In both
groups there were <50 neutrophils per high-power field.

Pathological assessment of postischemic renal tissue
There was significant tubular injury observed in both wild-type
and KO mice 24 and 48 h after ischemia (Fig. 9

DISCUSSION
|
|---|
Our data demonstrated that a brisk increase in expression of both
ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 mRNA and protein occurred in postischemic mouse
kidney tissue despite the absence of the IL-1R1 and TNF-R1 signaling
pathways. Although a partial attenuation of neutrophil infiltration
occurred in the IL-1/TNF KO mice at 24 h postischemia, the KO mice
showed renal dysfunction and tubular necrosis comparable with that in
wild-type mice.
ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are both important leukocyte adhesion molecules that
mediate leukocyte migration into areas of inflammation. Numerous
studies have demonstrated an important role for ICAM-1 in renal IRI
[14
15
16
, 27
28
]. VCAM-1 has recently been
seen to be important in mediating mononuclear cell infiltration into
the perivasculature after kidney transplantation [29
].
Thus, it is important to define the stimuli and pathways that induce
up-regulation of these molecules in the postischemic kidney. Abundant
in vitro data point to a key role for IL-1 and TNF, among other
stimuli, in up-regulation of ICAM-1 [10
,
17
18
19
]. A direct role of these cytokines in the
pathogenesis of renal IRI in vivo, however, is yet to be elucidated.
IL-1 has been found to mediate IRI in the heart and brain
[30
, 31
]. One study suggested that the
55-kDa TNF receptor (R1) is essential for postischemic VCAM-1
expression [32
]. Briscoe et al. [33
]
found that endothelial VCAM-1 expression contributes to T-cell invasion
at sites of inflammation and that subcutaneous TNF selectively promotes
VCAM-1 expression.
Our findings that mice deficient in both the IL-1 and TNF receptor
pathways can still induce ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 postischemia challenges the
idea that IL-1 and TNF are essential to up-regulate these adhesion
molecules in renal IRI. Thus, it is possible that IFN-
or another
cytokine was responsible for the ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 up-regulation in
postischemic mice. It is also possible that cytokine-independent
stimuli, such as oxygen free radicals, lead to the enhanced expression
of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 [34
]. Oxygen free radicals can
directly activate nuclear factor (NF)-
B, a transcription factor that
mediates formation of proinflammatory and procoagulatory proteins and
regulates ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 transcription [35
,
36
]. We acknowledge, however, that in KO mice, pathways
other than those deleted may assume a disrupted pathways function
[37
]. It should also be noted that the absence of a
specific PCR product does not absolutely ensure the absence of the
protein under consideration. Nonetheless, our results are consistent
with studies on Escherichia coli in mice showing that
hemolytic E. coli-induced mortality is independent of IL-1
and TNF signaling. In those studies, IL-1R1- and TNF-R1-deficient mice
were also used [38
].
Studies have demonstrated a substantial protection of renal function in
IRI in rats when ICAM-1 is blocked [15
,
16
]. Recent studies of renal IRI in ICAM-1-deficient mice
have confirmed a key role for ICAM-1 in this process
[15
]. Kelly et al. observed a significant attenuation in
the rise in blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine in
ICAM-1-deficient mice compared with levels in controls after 30 min of
bilateral pedicle clamping. They suggested that elevated TNF and IL-1
levels after ischemia and reperfusion may provide a possible mechanism
of up-regulation of ICAM-1 in the postischemic tissue. In the present
study, renal functional decline after IRI was similar between KO mice,
possibly because mice deficient in IL-1/TNF receptors are still capable
of generating an increase in ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 postischemia.
Daemen et al. [39
] found increases in IL-10 and TNF-
after IRI. In anti-IL-10-treated rats, an enhanced proinflammatory
response occurred, leading to additional impairment of renal function
and neutrophil influx. By contrast, in TNF antibody-treated rats,
protection from renal dysfunction was seen [39
]. There
are, however, differences in the models used in that study and in the
present study, i.e., antibody blockade vs. KO mice.
We observed a modest reduction in neutrophil infiltration into the
kidney in KO mice at 24 h. However, renal dysfunction and adhesion
molecule protein expression at 24 h were comparable. We have not
found a strong relationship between neutrophil influx and renal
dysfunction in our studies, although others have. Thus the KO may have
had some effect on neutrophil trafficking, but our current studies do
not reveal the significance of this in terms of organ dysfunction.
In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that IL-1- and
TNF-independent pathways can mediate renal adhesion molecule expression
and injury postischemia. Further studies are needed to assess the role
of cytokines in renal injury in vivo, which may be quite different from
what in vitro data predict.
