The role of cysteine proteases in hypoxia-induced rat renal proximal tubular injury.

The role of the lysosomal proteases cathepsins B and L and the calcium-dependent cytosolic protease calpain in hypoxia-induced renal proximal tubular injury was investigated. As compared to normoxic tubules, cathepsin B and L activity, evaluated by the specific fluorescent substrate benzyloxycarbonyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-arginine-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin, was not increased in hypoxic tubules or the...

Role of caspases in hypoxia-induced necrosis of rat renal proximal tubules.

The role of the caspases, a newly discovered group of cysteine proteases, was investigated in a model of hypoxia-induced necrotic injury of rat renal proximal tubules. An assay for caspases in freshly isolated rat proximal tubules was developed. There was a 40% increase in tubular caspase activity after 15 min of hypoxia in association with increased cell membrane damage as indicated by a three...

Protective Effects of Verapamil Against Hexachlorobutadiene Nephrotoxicity in Rat

Background: Hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD), a potent nephrotoxin can cause degeneration and necrosis in renal tubular epithelial cells in rodents. Its toxicity is due to conjugation with glutathione to form the related cysteine conjugate. This metabolite is then taken up by the kidney and cleared through renal tubular epithelial cells as a reactive thiol derivative by the enzyme β-lyase. Objective:...

Evidence for role of cytosolic free calcium in hypoxia-induced proximal tubule injury.

The role of cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in hypoxic injury was investigated in rat proximal tubules. [Ca2+]i was measured using fura-2 and cell injury was estimated with propidium iodide (PI) in individual tubules using video imaging fluorescence microscopy. [Ca2+]i increased from approximately 170 to approximately 390 nM during 5 min of hypoxia. This increase preceded detectable cell injury a...

The role of calpains in myocardial remodelling and heart failure.

Calpains are cytosolic calcium-activated cysteine proteases. Recently, they have been proposed to influence signal transduction processes leading to myocardial remodelling and heart failure. In this review, we will first describe some of these molecular mechanisms. Calpains may contribute to myocardial hypertrophy and inflammation, mainly through the activation of transcription factors such as ...
