PG - 139-152 LID - 10.1002/ptr.6507 [doi] AB - Acute kidney injury (AKI) with high incidence and mortality is the main cause of chronic kidney disease. Previous studies have indicated that quercetin, an abundant flavonoid in plants, exhibited renoprotective role in AKI. However, the underlying mechanism is largely unknown. In this study, we try to explore whether quercetin protects against AKI by inhibiting macrophage inflammation via regulation of Mincle/Syk/NF-kappaB signaling. The results demonstrated that quercetin can significantly inhibit expression and secretion of IL-1beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha in LPS-induced bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) and reduce activity of Mincle/Syk/NF-kappaB signaling in vitro. We also found that quercetin can strongly reduce the concentration of serum creatinine, BUN, IL-1beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha in cisplatin-induced AKI model. Furthermore, quercetin down-regulated protein levels of Mincle, phosphorylated Syk and NF-kappaB in kidney macrophages of AKI, as well as inhibited M1, up-regulated M2 macrophage activity. Notably, the down-regulation of LPS-induced inflammation by quercetin was reversed after adding TDB (an agonist of Mincle) in BMDMs, suggesting that quercetin suppresses macrophage inflammation may mainly through inhibiting Mincle and its downstream signaling. In summary, these findings clarified a new mechanism of quercetin improving AKI-induced kidney inflammation and injury, which provides a new drug option for the clinical treatment of AKI.
