Abstract P239: (Pro)Renin Receptor Contributes to Albumin Overload Nephropathy: Role of Site-1 Protease-Derived Soluble (Pro) Renin Receptor Session Title: Onsite Poster Competition I With Reception
(Pro) renin receptor (PRR) is a new member of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and its role in chronic kidney disease largely remains elusive. We tested the role of PRR in albumin overload (OA) nephropathy. Uninephretomized Sprague-Dawley rats were treated for 7 weeks with vehicle, bovine serum albumin (BSA) (5 g/kg/d via a single i.p. injection) or in combination with PRO20 (500 μg/kg/d via i.p. 3 times a day). The OA rat exhibited severe proteinuria (23-fold), interstitial fibrosis, and oxidative stress, accompanied with increases in urinary renin activity (3.6-fold), urinary angiotensinogen (AGT, 3.6-fold), urinary A...
