Isorhamnetin ameliorates cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in mice by activating SLPI-mediated anti-inflammatory effect in macrophage

OBJECTIVE: Isorhamnetin (IH) has been reported to have significant anti-inflammatory effects in various diseases, but its role and mechanism in AKI remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the potential role and mechanism of isorhamnetin in inhibiting macrophage related inflammation and improving AKI injury. METHODS: , and constructed an inflammatory cell model by stimulating RAW264.7 cells with LPS. Creatinine and urea nitrogen were measured to evaluate the changes of renal function in AKI mice. The changes of renal pathological structure were observed by H&E staining. The inflammatory factor-related proteins and RNA expression levels were detected by Western blot and real time PCR. RESULTS: . Blocking of SLPI by siRNA activated Mincle-associated inflammatory signaling in macrophages, and the inhibitory effect of isorhamnetin on inflammation was significantly attenuated. CONCLUSION: Isorhamnetin inhibits macrophage inflammation and protects kidney in AKI may be related to downregulating Mincle/Syk/NF-κB-maintained macrophage phenotype by activating SLPI.
