The chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin accumulates in the kidneys, leading to acute kidney injury (AKI). Preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated sex-dependent outcomes of cisplatin-AKI. Deranged histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity is hypothesized to promote the pathogenesis of male murine cisplatin-AKI; however, it is unknown whether there are sex differences in the kidney HDACs. We hypothesized that there would be sex-specific Hdac expression, localization, or enzymatic activity, which may explain sexual dimorphic responses to cisplatin-AKI. In normal human kidney RNA samples, HDAC10 was significantly greater in the kidneys of women compared with men, whereas HDAC1 , HDAC6 , HDAC10 , and HDAC11 were differentially expressed between the kidney cortex and medulla, regardless of sex. In a murine model of cisplatin-AKI (3 days after a 15 mg/kg injection), we found few sex- or cisplatin-related differences in Hdac kidney transcripts among the mice. Although Hdac9 was significantly greater in female mice compared with male mice, HDAC9 protein localization did not differ. Hdac7 transcripts were greater in the inner medulla of cisplatin-AKI mice, regardless of sex, and this agreed with a greater HDAC7 abundance. HDAC activity within the cortex, outer medulla, and inner medulla was significantly lower in cisplatin-AKI mice but did not differ between the sexes. In agreement with these findings, a class I HDAC inhibitor did not improve kidney injury or function. In conclusion, even though cisplatin-AKI was evident and there were transcript level differences among the different kidney regions in this model, there were few sex- or cisplatin-dependent effects on kidney HDAC localization or activity. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Kidney histone deacetylases (HDACs) are abundant in male and female mice, and the inner medulla has the greatest HDAC activity. A low dose of cisplatin caused acute kidney injury (AKI) in these mice, but there were few changes in kidney HDACs at the RNA/protein/activity level. A class I HDAC inhibitor failed to improve AKI outcomes. Defining the HDAC isoform, cellular source, and interventional timing is necessary to determine whether HDAC inhibition is a therapeutic strategy to prevent cisplatin-AKI in both sexes. |
