PG - 951-963 LID - S0085-2538(18)30447-2 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.kint.2018.06.010 [doi] AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical initiators of innate immunity in the kidney and orchestrate inflammation following ischemia-reperfusion injury. The role of the mammalian/mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) in the pathophysiology of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury has been characterized. However, the influence of DC-based alterations in mTOR signaling is unknown. To address this, bone marrow-derived mTORC2-deficient (Rictor(-/-)) DCs underwent hypoxia-reoxygenation and then analysis by flow cytometry. Adoptive transfer of wild-type or Rictor(-/-) DC to C57BL/6 mice followed by unilateral or bilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (20 min ischemia) was used to assess their in vivo migratory capacity and influence on tissue injury. Age-matched male DC-specific Rictor(-/-) mice or littermate controls underwent bilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion, followed by assessment of renal function, histopathology, and biomolecular and cell infiltration analysis. Rictor(-/-) DCs expressed more costimulatory CD80/CD86 but less coinhibitory programmed death ligand 1 (PDL1), a pattern that was enhanced by hypoxia-reoxygenation. They also demonstrated enhanced migration to the injured kidney and induced greater tissue damage. Following ischemia-reperfusion, Rictor(-/-) DC mice developed higher serum creatinine levels, more severe histological damage, and greater proinflammatory cytokine production compared to littermate controls. Additionally, a greater influx of both neutrophils and T cells was seen in Rictor(-/-) DC mice, along with CD11c(+)MHCII(+)CD11b(hi)F4/80(+) renal DC, that expressed more CD86 but less PDL1. Thus, DC-targeted elimination of Rictor enhances inflammation and migratory responses to the injured kidney, highlighting the regulatory roles of both DCs and Rictor in the pathophysiology of acute kidney injury.
