The aim of our study was to investigate the ischemia/reperfusion-induced kidney injury of male and female rats to confirm the protective effects of PACAP in the kidney and to reveal possible gender differences.Male and female Wistar rats underwent unilateral renal artery clamping followed by 24-h, 48-h, or 14-day reperfusion. PACAP was administered intravenously before arterial clamping in half of the rats. Tubular damage, cytokine expression pattern, oxidative stress marker, antioxidative status and signaling pathways were evaluated using histology, immunohistology, cytokine array, PCR, and Western blot. Tubular damage was significantly less severe in the PACAP-treated male and female rats compared to controls. Results of female animals were significantly better in both treated and untreated groups. Cytokine expression, oxidative stress marker and antioxidative status confirmed the histological results. We also revealed that PACAP counteracted the decreased PKA phosphorylation, influenced the expression of BMP2 and BMP4, and increased the expression of the protein Smad1.We conclude that PACAP is protective in ischemia/reperfusion-induced kidney injury in both sexes, but females had markedly less pronounced injury after ischemia/reperfusion, possibly also involving further protective factors, the investigation of which could have future therapeutic value in treating ischemic kidney injuries.}, keywords = {PACAP; BONE MORPHOGENETIC PROTEIN; Superoxide dismutase; CYTOKINE EXPRESSION; Ischemia/reperfusion; Tubular damage}, year = {2019}, eissn = {1559-1166}, pages = {408-419} } @article{MTMT:3320609, title = {Effects of Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase Activating Polypeptide in Human Proximal Tubule Cells Against Gentamicin Toxicity}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/3320609}, author = {Horváth-Opper, Gabriella and Reglődi, Dóra and Czétány, Péter and Illés, Anita and Rémán, Gyöngyvér Éva and Fekete, Andrea and Tóth, Gábor and László, Eszter and Opper, Balázs}, doi = {10.1007/s10989-017-9666-5}, journal-iso = {INT J PEPT RES THER}, journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PEPTIDE RESEARCH AND THERAPEUTICS}, volume = {25}, unique-id = {3320609}, issn = {1573-3149}, year = {2019}, eissn = {1573-3904}, pages = {257-264}, orcid-numbers = {Fekete, Andrea/0000-0002-0210-153X; Tóth, Gábor/0000-0002-3604-4385} } @article{MTMT:2940061, title = {Ischemia/reperfusion-induced Kidney Injury in Heterozygous PACAP-deficient Mice.}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2940061}, author = {László, Eszter and Varga, Ádám and Kovács, Krisztina and Jancsó, Gábor and Kiss, Péter and Tamás, Andrea and Szakály, Péter and Fülöp, Balázs Dániel and Reglődi, Dóra}, doi = {10.1016/j.transproceed.2015.07.027}, journal-iso = {TRANSPLANT PROC}, journal = {TRANSPLANTATION PROCEEDINGS}, volume = {47}, unique-id = {2940061}, issn = {0041-1345}, abstract = {Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a neuropeptide with very diverse distribution and functions. Among others, PACAP is a potent cytoprotective peptide due to its antiapoptotic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant actions. This also has been shown in different kidney pathologies, including ischemia/reperfusion-induced kidney injury. Similar protective effects of the endogenous PACAP are confirmed by the increased vulnerability of PACAP-deficient mice to different harmful stimuli. Kidneys of homozygous PACAP-deficient mice have more severe damages in renal ischemia/reperfusion and kidney cell cultures isolated from these mice show increased sensitivity to renal oxidative stress. In our present study we raised the question of whether the partial lack of the PACAP gene is also deleterious, i.e. whether heterozygous PACAP-deficient mice also display more severe damage after renal ischemia/reperfusion. Mice underwent 45 or 60 minutes of ischemia followed by 2 weeks reperfusion. Histological evaluation of the kidneys was performed and individual histopathological parameters were graded. Furthermore, we investigated apoptotic markers, cytokine expression, and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme 24 hours after 60 minutes of renal ischemia/reperfusion. We found no difference between the intact kidneys of wild-type and heterozygous mice, but marked differences could be observed following ischemia/reperfusion. Heterozygous PACAP-deficient mice had more severe histological alterations, with significantly higher histopathological scores for most of the tested parameters. Higher level of the proapoptotic pp38 MAPK and of some proinflammatory cytokines, as well as lower activity of the antioxidant SOD could be found in these mice. In conclusion, the partial lack of the PACAP gene results in worse outcomes in cases of renal ischemia/reperfusion, confirming that PACAP functions as an endogenous protective factor in the kidney.}, year = {2015}, eissn = {1873-2623}, pages = {2210-2215} } @article{MTMT:2788820, title = {The effects of pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide in renal ischemia/reperfusion.}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/2788820}, author = {László, Eszter and Kiss, Péter and Horváth-Opper, Gabriella and Szakály, Péter and Tamás, Andrea and Reglődi, Dóra}, doi = {10.1556/ABiol.65.2014.4.1}, journal-iso = {ACTA BIOL HUNG}, journal = {ACTA BIOLOGICA HUNGARICA (1983-2018)}, volume = {65}, unique-id = {2788820}, issn = {0236-5383}, abstract = {Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP ) is a multifunctional neuropeptide occurring in the nervous system as well as in the peripheral organs.

Not surprisingly, the lack of endogenous PACAP therefore results in a variety of abnormalities. One of the important effects of PACAP is its neuroprotective and general cytoprotective role. PACAP protects neurons and other tissues against ischemic, toxic, and traumatic lesions. Data obtained from PACAP-deficient mice provide evidence that endogenous PACAP also has protective functions. Mice lacking PACAP are more vulnerable to different in vitro and in vivo insults. The present review summarizes data on the increased sensitivity of PACAP-deficient mice against harmful stimuli. Mice lacking PACAP respond with a higher degree of injury in cerebral ischemia, autoimmune encephalomyelitis, and axonal lesion. Retinal ischemic and excitotoxic injuries also produce increased cell loss in PACAP-deficient mice. In peripheral organs, kidney cell cultures from PACAP-deficient mice are more sensitive to oxidative stress and in vitro hypoxia. In vivo, PACAP-deficient mice have a negative histological outcome and altered cytokine response in kidney and small intestine ischemia/reperfusion injury. Large intestinal inflammation, toxic lesion of the pancreas, and doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy are also more severe with a lack of endogenous PACAP. Finally, an increased inflammatory response has been described in subacute endotoxin- induced airway inflammation and in an oxazolone-induced allergic contact dermatitis model. In summary, lack of endogenous PACAP leads to higher vulnerability in a number of injuries in the nervous system and peripheral organs, supporting the hypothesis that PACAP is part of the endogenous cytoprotective machinery.}, year = {2012}, eissn = {1559-1166}, pages = {482-492}, orcid-numbers = {Atlasz, Tamás/0000-0002-8112-8633; Gábriel, Róbert/0000-0001-9323-8795; Ferencz, Andrea/0000-0002-1623-9783} } @article{MTMT:1708851, title = {Effects of pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide in the urinary system, with special emphasis on its protective effects in the kidney}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1708851}, author = {Reglődi, Dóra and Kiss, Péter and Horváth-Opper, Gabriella and Lubics, Andrea and László, Eszter and Tamás, Andrea and Rácz, Boglárka and Szakály, Péter}, doi = {10.1016/j.npep.2011.05.001}, journal-iso = {NEUROPEPTIDES}, journal = {NEUROPEPTIDES}, volume = {46}, unique-id = {1708851}, issn = {0143-4179}, abstract = {Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a widespread neuropeptide with diverse effects in the nervous system and peripheral organs.
