Preconditioning with tin-protoporphyrin IX attenuates ischemia/reperfusion injury in the rat kidney

Abstract: These results suggest that prior induction of HO-1 protein by high-dose SnPP may lead to anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects on warm renal I/R injury independently of its enzyme activity, and that HO enzyme activation may not always act as an antioxidant, especially under I/R-induced oxidative stress.

“…It should be noted however, that hemin might not be simply an inducer of HO-1, but also of HO-2. 45 However, we think a role of HO-2 in our results unlikely because HO-2 expression was unmodified after CS and/or hemin exposure. Furthermore, we ensure that the effects of hemin were reversed by the HO inhibitor SnPP, which markedly reduced HO activity (Figure 1C), and opposite effects to those induced by hemin were observed by specific inhibition of HO-1 expression by an in vivo siRNA strategy.…”

“…8 The difficulty encountered in interpreting studies based on the use of metalloporphyrin HO inhibitors may be illustrated by studies using these inhibitors to evaluate the role of the HO system in renal ischemic injury: in this disease model, depending on the study, contrasting conclusions are reached in which the HO system is considered either a protectant against or a contributor to renal injury. 42,43 The Vol. 170,No.…”

“…HO-1 plays an important role in the maintenance of renal function and in the protection of tubular cells, especially in the segment of the nephron susceptible to ischemic or toxic injury, as demonstrated by its protective function in in vivo and in vitro experimental models (11,13) . The protective function of HO-1 is believed to be associated with the action of one or more of the subproducts resulting from heme degradation: bilirubin, ferritin and carbon monoxide (14) . Curiously, administration of ZnPP, a highly specific and selective HO-1 and HO-1 inhibitor, did not result in alterations in renal function or in interference with the redox mechanism.…”
