The chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin accumulates in the kidney and induces acute kidney injury (AKI). Preclinical/clinical studies suggest that young female mice/women show greater recovery from cisplatin-AKI compared to young males/men. The endothelin (ET) and ET receptors are enriched in the kidney and may be dysfunctional in cisplatin-AKI; however, there is a gap in our knowledge about the putative effects of sex and cisplatin on the renal ET system. We hypothesized that cisplatin-AKI male and female mice will have increased expression of the renal ET system. As expected, all cisplatin-AKI mice had kidney damage and body weight loss greater than control mice. Cisplatin-AKI mice had greater cortical Edn1, Edn3, Ednra, and Ednrb, while outer medullary Ednra was significantly suppressed in both sexes. Of the ~25,000 genes sequenced from the inner medulla only 91 genes (comparing saline mice) and 134 (comparing cisplatin-AKI mice) were differentially expressed and they were unrelated to the ET system. However, Edn1 was significantly greater in the inner medulla of male and female cisplatin-AKI mice. Thus, RNA profiles of the ET system were significantly affected by cisplatin-AKI throughout the kidney regardless of sex and this may help determine the therapeutic potential of targeting the ET receptors in cisplatin-AKI.
