Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has not been elucidated that the downstream of Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) pathway in septic acute kidney injury (AKI). We hypothesized that Interleukin (IL)-17A plays a central role in it. Septic AKI was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). IL-17A knockout (KO) mice exhibited decreased serum creatinine levels and improved tubular damage score in cortex at 18 hours after CLP. Systemic inflammatory cytokines and splenic apoptosis were decreased at 18 hours after CLP in IL-17AKO mice compared with Wild type (WT) mice. Mortalities were less in IL-17AKO mice compared with WT mice after CLP. IL-17A levels of plasma were significantly higher in WT mice than Tlr9KO mice at 18 hours after CLP. Although IL-17A production of splenic γδ T cells in WT mice was increased at 3 hours after CLP, its in Tlr9KO mice was suppressed. These findings suggest that TLR9 mediates IL-17A production in septic AKI.
