Research Abstract

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) represents impaired regulation of humoral or endocrine factors, such as the enhanced renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. We investigated roles of humoral factors in MetS-associated renal injury.
The natriuretic peptide (ANP and BNP) receptor GC-A is abundantly expressed in renal tubules, but its role in glomerular injury is unknown. When GC-A knockout mice were subjected to aldosterone and high salt, massive proteinuria with marked podocyte injury was observed, which was alleviated with an ARB, antioxidant, or p38 MAPK inhibitor, suggesting their therapeutic potential.
In mouse models of diabetes with dyslipidemia, we found that TLR4 and its ligand MRP8, factors associated with homeostatic inflammation, were markedly upregulated together with worsening of nephropathy. Renal injury was significantly alleviated in TLR4-deficient mice. Expression of MRP8 was also enhanced in advanced human diabetic nephropathy, suggesting its role as a prognostic marker.
