Abstrakt: | Background: Prolyl-4-hydroxylase domain-containing proteins 1-3 (PHD1 to PHD3) regulate the activity of the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) HIF-1 and HIF-2, transcription factors that are key regulators of hypoxic vascular responses. We previously reported that deficiency of endothelial HIF-2 exacerbated renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, whereas inactivation of endothelial PHD2, the main oxygen sensor, provided renoprotection. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms by which endothelial PHD2 dictates AKI outcomes remain undefined. Methods: To investigate the function of the endothelial PHD2/HIF axis in ischemic AKI, we examined the effects of endothelial-specific ablation of PHD2 in a mouse model of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. We also interrogated the contribution of each HIF isoform by concurrent endothelial deletion of both PHD2 and HIF-1 or both PHD2 and HIF-2. Results: Endothelial deletion of Phd2 preserved kidney function and limited transition to CKD. Mechanistically, we found that endothelial Phd2 ablation protected against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury by suppressing the expression of proinflammatory genes and recruitment of inflammatory cells in a manner that was dependent on HIF-1 but not HIF-2. Persistence of renoprotective responses after acute inducible endothelial-specific loss of Phd2 in adult mice ruled out a requirement for PHD2 signaling in hematopoietic cells. Although Phd2 inhibition was not sufficient to induce detectable HIF activity in the kidney endothelium, in vitro experiments implicated a humoral factor in the anti-inflammatory effects generated by endothelial PHD2/HIF-1 signaling. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that activation of endothelial HIF-1 signaling through PHD2 inhibition may offer a novel therapeutic approach against ischemic AKI.
