Protective Effect of Erythropoietin in Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ischemia and/or reperfusion injury (IR) is one of the most common causes of acute renal failure. Erythropoietin (EPO), is main hematopoietic hormone that has recently been shown to exert important cytoprotective and anti-apoptotic effects in experimental I/R and toxicity models. Recent studies suggest that administration of exogenous EPO prevents ischemia-induced kidney damage. In this review we focused on anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant action of EPO in renal ischemia-reperfusion models and its application in nephropathies. EPO seems to be a very promising agent for protecting cellular survival during both acute and chronic ischemic and toxic nephropathies.

Combination Antioxidant Effect of Erythropoietin and Melatonin on Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Rats
Objective(s): Renal ischemia reperfusion (IR) contributes to the development of acute renal failure (ARF). Oxygen free radicals are considered to be principal components involved in the pathophysiological tissue alterations observed during renal IR. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of co-administration of melatonin (MEL) and erythropoietin (EPO), potent antioxidant and ...
متن کاملPre-treatment with erythropoietin attenuates bilateral renal ischemia-induced cognitive impairments
One of the most common causes of mortality in acute kidney injury is brain dysfunction. Here we investigated the possible protective effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on cognitive impairments induced by bilateral renal ischemia (BRI). Eighty male Wistar rats were allocated into 8 groups: 1, 2) Sham+V (Vehicle), 3, 4) Sham+EPO, 5, 6) BRI+V, 7, 8) BRI+EPO. The groups followed by the reperfusion per...

Introduction: Orexins are novel neuropeptides that are localized in neurons in the lateral hypothalamus. They are implicated in a wide variety of physiological functions. Orexin peptides and receptors are found in many peripheral organs such as kidneys. It has been demonstrated that exogenous orexin-A can induce protective effects against ischemia–reperfusion injury in many organs. The goal ...

Introduction: Renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation is the main cause of acute kidney damage. Nitric oxide (NO) biosynthesis and oxidative stress are closely related to the pathogenesis of renal I/R injury. This study was undertaken to determine the effects of L-arginine (L-arg) as NO donor and aerobic exercise (EX) and also the combination of L-...
متن کاملThe Protective Effect of Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Nanoparticles in Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Damage
Background& objectives: Renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) damage occurs during renal transplantation in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients which activate immune responses. Inflammatory responses by increased levels of cytokines can lead to acute kidney injury (AKI) that contributes to the loss of renal grafts and graft dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to review the therapeutic effe...
