Research Abstract |
We have established the porcine renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model clamping bilateral renal arteries. Then, we assessed the degrees of kidney damage and expression of PPAR-γ and LXR-α (PPAR-γ's target gene)in the kidney comparing the PPAR-γ agonists administration group with control group. Both PPAR-γ and LXR-α are expressed in juxtaglomerular vascular endothelial cells and proximal tubule epithelial cells in both groups. Serum creatinine are increased until 4 hours after reperfusion. Pathological damage was peaked at about 2 hours after reperfusion and recovered after that. Now, we are proceeding the quantitative assessment in both groups.
