2 X  g$ i- O- K* [$ j      TG(mRen2)27 (Ren2) transgenic rats overexpress the mouse renin gene, with subsequent elevated tissue ANG II, hypertension, and nephropathy. The proximal tubule cell (PTC) is responsible for the reabsorption of 5-8 g of glomerular filtered albumin each day. Excess filtered albumin may contribute to PTC damage and tubulointerstitial disease. This investigation examined the role of ANG II-induced oxidative stress in PTC structural remodeling: whether such changes could be modified with in vivo treatment with ANG type 1 receptor (AT 1 R) blockade (valsartan) or SOD/catalase mimetic (tempol). Male Ren2 (6-7 wk old) and age-matched Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with valsartan (30 mg/kg), tempol (1 mmol/l), or placebo for 3 wk. Systolic blood pressure, albuminuria, N -acetyl- - D -glucosaminidase, and kidney tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured, and x 60,000 transmission electron microscopy images were used to assess PTC microvilli structure. There were significant differences in systolic blood pressure, albuminuria, lipid peroxidation (MDA and nitrotyrosine staining), and PTC structure in Ren2 vs. Sprague-Dawley rats (each P < 0.05). Increased mean diameter of PTC microvilli in the placebo-treated Ren2 rats ( P < 0.05) correlated strongly with albuminuria ( r 2 = 0.83) and moderately with MDA ( r 2 = 0.49), and there was an increase in the ratio of abnormal forms of microvilli in placebo-treated Ren2 rats compared with Sprague-Dawley control rats ( P < 0.05). AT 1 R blockade, but not tempol treatment, abrogated albuminuria and N -acetyl- - D -glucosaminidase; both therapies corrected abnormalities in oxidative stress and PTC microvilli remodeling. These data indicate that PTC structural damage in the Ren2 rat is related to the oxidative stress response to ANG II and/or albuminuria. ' [, ]+ s9 P2 U+ K: \7 V2 N

! i: Z: `- d2 y  t3 v                  CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE is increasing worldwide ( 15, 27 ). In the United States, it is estimated that 372,000 persons have end-stage renal disease, and 11% of adults are in the earlier stages of chronic kidney disease ( 15 ). Principal causes of chronic kidney disease leading to end-stage renal disease are type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension (HTN) ( 15, 27, 29, 31 ). Proteinuria is emerging as a major mediator of progressive renal disease leading to renal interstitial fibrosis and progressive renal injury ( 15, 29 ). The concept has been developed that excess protein filtered through the glomerulus exerts direct toxicity on epithelial cells of the kidney proximal tubule ( 3, 5, 8, 28 ). Excessive filtered protein, particularly albumin, is thought to exert direct proinflammatory and profibrotic effects on tubular epithelial cells ( 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 29 ) and cause renal interstitial fibrosis ( 5, 8, 13 ).2 q# K# J  s. ^  q+ I

Renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTC) are important for the reabsorption of most of the glomerular physiologically filtered albumin ( 8 ). Approximately 5-8 g of albumin pass through the glomerular filtration barrier daily, yet only 30 mg or less appear in the urine ( 8 ). Reabsorption of filtrate in the PTC occurs primarily by clathrin- and receptor-mediated endocytosis ( 3, 5, 8, 13, 28, 35 ). Microvilli cover the apical portion of the PTC and provide the surface responsible for receptor-mediated endocytosis of albumin. Receptors that mediate this endocytosis include megalin and cubilin. Cytoskeletal remodeling involving actin- and myosin-mediated contraction facilitates the formation of endocytic vesicles ( 3, 5, 8, 13, 28, 35 ). Albumin is dissociated from these receptors and transported to lysosomes for degradation to amino acids, which are released through the basolateral membranes and absorbed into interstitial capillaries.

The mechanism by which exposure of excessive albumin leads to PTC injury and the morphological and functional nature of this injury remain poorly understood. Compensatory hypertrophy of PTC in response to renal damage caused by HTN, hypoxia, and metabolic abnormalities appears to be an early process in the progression to tubular atrophy and tubulointerstitial fibrosis ( 18, 38 ). This hypertrophic process may be followed by apoptosis and other mechanisms leading to loss of PTC and/or microvilli ( 18, 20, 37, 38 ). There is accumulating evidence that the renal renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a pivotal role in PTC maladaptive responses to various types of renal injury ( 4, 9, 16, 17 ). PTC produce and secrete angiotensin II (ANG II) into the lumen, where its concentration (6-10 nmol/l) is 10 times higher than in plasma ( 17 ). ANG II (AT 1 and AT 2 ) receptors are located on basolateral and luminal sides of the PTC ( 4, 9, 16 ). The critical location of ANG II receptors and the high concentration of ANG II suggest an autocrine/paracrine role for the RAS in the PTC. Furthermore, in pathophysiological conditions of albuminuria, as in type 2 diabetes mellitus or HTN, treatment with blockers of the AT 1 R reduces the progression of renal disease ( 15, 27, 29, 43 ), as well as urine albumin loss ( 36 ). However, the precise mechanisms by which ANG II mediates renal tubular damage remain poorly understood.
( H  R; w; i6 r8 N& V
- A5 \3 V$ J, B8 wExcessive albuminuria has been reported to induce ANG II production and increase ANG II uptake by an AT 1 R-mediated process ( 17 ). Increased renal ANG II has been reported in systemically ANG II-infused rats and in the transgenic TG(mRen2)27 (Ren2) rat ( 19, 22, 41 ). The Ren2 rat overexpresses ANG II in tissues and develops HTN, insulin resistance, and albuminuria ( 2, 22, 36 ). Investigations conducted in this and other hypertensive, insulin-resistant, proteinuric rodent models have shown that ANG II-induced oxidative stress contributes to development of insulin resistance, HTN, albuminuria, and renal injury ( 2, 22, 36 ) and that these effects can be abrogated by AT 1 R blockade and antioxidant therapy ( 2, 26, 30, 36 ). Accordingly, in the present investigation, we hypothesized that 1 ) the Ren2 rat would manifest oxidative stress-mediated PTC injury in relation to albuminuria and 2 ) treatment of this model of ANG II overexpression in vivo with an AT 1 R blocker or a cell-permeable SOD/catalase mimetic ( 1, 32 ) would attenuate this ANG-II induced oxidative stress-mediated PTC injury.

They were randomly assigned to valsartan-treated (Ren2-V and SDV), tempol-treated (Ren2-T and SDT), and placebo-treated (Ren2-C and SDC) groups. On the basis of previous work ( 2 ), the treated animals received valsartan (30 mg·kg -1 ·day -1 ) or tempol (1 mmol/l) in drinking water for 21 days before they were killed. All protocols were approved by the University of Missouri and Harry S.

A commercially available kit (Nephrat, Exocell, Philadelphia, PA) was used to measure urine albumin. Albumin was measured in urine collected over a 24-h period at the end of treatment and normalized to creatinine. Urine creatinine was measured using the Jaffe reaction on an automated chemistry analyzer (model AU400, Olympus America, Dallas, TX). Results are reported as a ratio of urine albumin to creatinine (mg/mg).( {0 x' D9 _- x% @. h

N -acetyl- - D -glucosaminidase ( -NAG), a 140-kDa lysosomal enzyme, is present in high concentrations in PTC but is not typically excreted into the urine by normal intact PTC ( 25 ). Thus increased -NAG in the urine is a potential marker for PTC injury ( 25 ). Urine excretion of -NAG was determined by colorimetric assay (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN). Urine samples were first fractionated on a gel filtration column for removal of NAG inhibitors and then assayed for NAG activity via a colorimetric assay on an automated chemistry analyzer (model AU400, Olympus America). -NAG excretion is expressed as milliunits of NAG activity.2 Q!

Butylated hydroxytoluene (5 mM) was added to kidney cortical tissue (100 mg) to prevent new lipid peroxidation. Samples were then homogenized in a buffer solution (0.25 M sucrose, 0.5 mM EDTA, 50 mM HEPES, and protease inhibitors) on ice and centrifuged at 4°C at 15,000 rpm for 10 min. The supernatant was collected for MDA and o -phthaldialdehyde protein assays. A spectrophotometric assay kit (model MDA-586, OxisResearch Biotech, Portland, OR) was used to measure free MDA in supernatant (200 µl).

Sections of kidney were deparaffinized and rehydrated, and epitopes were retrieved in citrate buffer. Endogenous peroxidases were quenched with 3% H 2 O 2, and nonspecific binding sites were blocked with avidin and biotin and, finally, with protein block (Dako, Carpentaria, CA). Sections were incubated with a 1:200 dilution of primary rabbit polyclonal anti-nitrotyrosine antibody (catalog no. AB5411, Chemicon) and then washed, incubated with the secondary antibodies, linked, and labeled (strepavidin; LSAB  kit, catalog no. K0690, Dako) for 30 min each. After several rinses with distilled water, diaminobenzidine (catalog no. K3466, Dako) was applied for 10 min. Sections were again rinsed with distilled water, stained with hematoxylin for 1 min, rehydrated, and mounted with a permanent medium. Slides were evaluated under a bright-field microscope (model 50i, Nikon), and x 40 images were captured with a Cool Snap camera. Images were analyzed and signal intensities were measured with MetaVue (Boyce Scientific, Gary Summit, MO).

Transmission electron microscopy methods. Renal cortical tissue from excised kidneys was thinly sliced and placed immediately in primary electron microscopy fixative (2% glutaraldehyde and 2% paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M sodium cacodylate buffer, pH 7.35). A laboratory microwave oven (model 3440, Pelco) was utilized for secondary fixation, with acetone dehydration and Epon-Spurr resin infiltration. Specimens were placed on a rocker overnight at room temperature, embedded the following morning, and polymerized at 60°C for 24 h. A microtome (Ultracut UCT, Leica) with a 45° diamond knife (Diatome) was used to prepare thin (85-nm) sections. The specimens were stained with 5% uranyl acetate and Sato's triple-lead stain. A transmission electron microscope (model 1200-EX, JEOL) was utilized to view all renal samples.

Five (450 x 450 nm) images were cropped out of each x 60,000 image and analyzed using Image J (a public domain Java image-processing program, National Institutes of Health). The microvilli were viewed in cross section in each cropped image, and the diameter of the microvilli was measured and recorded in a blinded fashion ( 38 ). Additionally, abnormal 100 nm, were counted per field (see Fig. 3 ). The value of 100 nm was chosen as a value 2 standard deviations above the upper limit of 76.6-86.9 nm of normal proximal tubules observed in control animals.6 ?7 a4 _" L/ p; |* A1 ^$ J) x7 t/ n

This investigation demonstrated that the Ren2 rat, which manifests enhanced tissue RAS ( 2, 22, 36, 41 ), develops renal tubular structural abnormalities in conjunction with development of HTN and albuminuria. Transmission electron microscopy revealed substantial microvilli abnormalities in the proximal tubules of the Ren2 rat compared with age-matched SD littermates. These abnormalities were generally characterized by increased mean diameter and increased numbers of abnormal microvilli structures. Furthermore, the extent of the abnormalities of the Ren2 microvilli was directly related to quantitative increases in urinary albumin. These observations are consistent with prior reports that albuminuria may cause PTC injury ( 3, 5, 8, 13, 28 ).
* u: n9 @9 G/ G- ~; _
$ W7 _$ A( c4 d$ E' i3 G8 FOur understanding of PTC damage in response to albuminuria or other insults (i.e., hypoxia and metabolic abnormalities) is very limited. However, the transmission electron microscopy abnormalities in the Ren2 rat are potentially consistent with loss of the cytoskeletal integrity necessary for maintenance of erect tubules ( 20, 37, 38 ). Indeed, it has been previously observed that actin and myosin microfilaments undergo depolymerization, fragmentation, and basolateral retraction from the apical region of the microvilli in ischemia and HTN injury ( 20, 37, 39 ). This loss of cytoskeletal integrity likely contributes to flaccid/folded microvilli. This alteration, in conjunction with apoptosis/necrosis, could account for the loss of microvilli and widening of remaining microvillar structures observed in this study. Finally, the observations that oxidative stress increased in the Ren2 rats, as measured by MDA and confirmed with staining of nitrotyrosine in the PTC, and that in vivo treatment with valsartan and tempol abrogated the microvilli structural abnormalities may suggest a role for oxidative stress as a common converging process mediating PTC injury in response to ANG II and albumin excess in the Ren2 rat.

As previously observed in skeletal ( 2 ) and cardiovascular ( 34 ) tissue, there were increased oxidative changes (MDA) in the renal cortical tissue of the Ren2 rat. HTN ( 22, 41 ), insulin resistance ( 2, 12, 34 ), and albuminuria ( 36 ) in this rodent model ( 2, 12, 34 ) are related to excess tissue ANG II signaling through the AT 1 R to increase oxidative stress. The increases in lipid peroxidation, cortical tissue MDA levels, and, more specifically, nitrotyrosine staining of the PTC in the Ren2 rats suggest a role for oxidative stress in the PTC remodeling. Our finding that AT 1 R blockade and tempol treatment decreased renal lipid oxidation, as well as PTC microvilli structural abnormalities, provides evidence for ANG II/albumin-induced oxidative stress as a convergent pathway in the pathogenesis of PTC injury in this rodent model of tissue RAS overexpression. Furthermore, it is also important to consider the role of ACE2 and neprilysin activity in opposing the effects of ANG II stimulation of the AT 1 R ( 7, 10, 36 ). We previously observed that valsartan increased expression of ACE2 and neprilysin in renal cortical tissue of Ren2 animals ( 36 ). Here we report similar effects after in vivo treatment with tempol as well. Collectively, these observations suggest that diminishing oxidative stress improves relative ACE2 signaling in renal cortical tissue.

. O! o6 c6 s; k, W6 `ANG II generates superoxide anion (O 2 - ) and H 2 O 2 in cardiovascular tissue ( 34 ) and the kidney ( 14, 26, 36 ). At normal physiological concentrations, O 2 - and H 2 O 2 can act as second messengers in ANG II-mediated signaling pathways, but in excess they mediate inflammation and cellular dysfunction ( 33 ). The tubular structural alterations were related to levels of MDA and albuminuria, and damage was ameliorated by 3 wk of tempol or valsartan treatment. Tempol, an SOD/catalase mimetic, attenuates development of HTN and vascular injury via scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS), O 2 - and H 2 O 2 ( 1, 30, 32 ). Indeed, previous in vivo treatment with tempol has been shown to normalize vascular superoxide levels, blood pressure, and renal inflammatory responses in ANG II-infused hypertensive rats ( 1, 24 ). Although valsartan treatment abrogated HTN, albuminuria, and PTC injury, tempol exerted its protective effects on PTC, even though it did not significantly lower SBP or albuminuria. ANG II has previously been shown to selectively increase O 2 - and H 2 O 2 in PTC via NADPH oxidase activation, independent of mitochondrial O 2 - production ( 6, 11 ). In PTC, the flavoprotein inhibitor diphenylene iodinium, as well as the antioxidant N -acetylcysteine, prevented membrane-bound NADPH oxidase activation and generation of ROS ( 6, 11 ). These data collectively suggest that an increase in ROS is the convergent pathway by which increased ANG II and/or albuminuria causes PTC injury.) i3 p. e- G& ]5 m# ]3 }  b( w

7 r* O% \2 [- POne limitation in the interpretation of these results is the lack of increase in -NAG in the Ren2 rat, which has recently been reported as an indicator of tubular injury. However, results from other studies have been inconclusive with regard to the contribution of -NAG to proximal tubule injury, and the most promising studies have been in the area of diabetic nephropathy. Furthermore, the finding that -NAG was not increased in the Ren2 rat, despite the structural changes, may reflect its relative inability to detect early tubular injury. Another possible limitation is drawing a conclusion regarding the correlation between oxidative stress (as measured by MDA) and PTC injury with an r 2 of 0.49. Although the association is not as strong as the correlation with albuminuria ( r 2 = 0.85), there is a modest association between the level of MDA and PTC structural changes. Furthermore, our staining of the PTC with nitrotyrosine, which is specific for oxidation, does support our conclusions. However, these associations are best corroborated with in vitro studies of the impact of ROS generation on structural and functional alterations in PTC in culture ( 23 ) ( 40, 42 ).9 v# V9 o- O; e$ W# v+ m$ }' z
