Immunological Aspects Of The Renal System Flashcards
Define AKI
No structural changes
Increase in SCr by 50%
Oliguria (decreased urine output)
Define CKD
FGR <60ml/min
Kidney damage
What does AKI lead to
Metabolic acidosis and ATP depletion which can lead to acute renal failure
Majority of causes in AKI cause what which then leads to AKI
Hypoxia
Sterile renal inflammation is induced by what
DAMPS
CRP is like what and can activate what
Is like IgM and can activate complement pathways via the classical pathway which leads to inflammation (C3a/C5a)
DAMPS and PAMPS activate what
TLR, NLR
Necrosis from AKI triggers what
DAMPS
Early stage AKI is mediated by what cells
What about late stage
Early - TH17
Late - Th1
What is the role of M1 and M2 in AKI
M1 - AKI mediation
M2 - tissue repair
What does DC cells lead to in AKI
TH1/TH17 differentiation
What does M1 lead to in AKI
What about M2
Increased TNF-a
Increased IL-6
Increased Arginase - 1
Increased IL - 10
What clears the early apoptotic cells
M2
What does the T-Cell lead to for AKI and tissue repair
AKI: Increased CD4, TH1 Increased IFN - y increased IL - 6 Decreased IL - 4
Repair:
Ag-specific T-Cell expansion
M1 is activated by what
PAMPS/DAMPS through binding to TLR’s
M2 is activated by what
IL-4 and IL-13
Th - 17 is activated by what, produces what, and then causes what
activated by TGFb Produces IL - 17 and produces inflammation
M2 will do what, not what
Heal the tissue, not restore function
What causes M1 to become M2
CSF - 1, (M-CSF), IL - 10
