    Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) affords tissue protection in organs including kidneys; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we demonstrate an important role of macroautophagy/autophagy (especially mitophagy) in the protective effect of IPC in kidneys. IPC induced autophagy in renal tubular cells in mice and suppressed subsequent renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). The protective effect of IPC was abolished by pharmacological inhibitors of autophagy and by the ablation of Atg7 from kidney proximal tubules. Pretreatment with BECN1/Beclin1 peptide induced autophagy and protected against IRI. These results suggest the dependence of IPC protection on renal autophagy. During IPC, the mitophagy regulator PINK1 (PTEN induced putative kinase 1) was activated. Both IPC and BECN1 peptide enhanced mitolysosome formation during renal IRI in mitophagy reporter mice, suggesting that IPC may protect kidneys by activating mitophagy. We further established an in vitro model of IPC by inducing 'chemical ischemia' in kidney proximal tubular cells with carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP). Brief treatment with CCCP protected against subsequent injury in these cells and the protective effect was abrogated by autophagy inhibition. In vitro IPC increased mitophagosome formation, enhanced the delivery of mitophagosomes to lysosomes, and promoted the clearance of damaged mitochondria during subsequent CCCP treatment. IPC also suppressed mitochondrial depolarization, improved ATP production, and inhibited the generation of reactive oxygen species. Knockdown of Pink1 suppressed mitophagy and reduced the cytoprotective effect of IPC. Together, these results suggest that autophagy, especially mitophagy, plays an important role in the protective effect of IPC.Abbreviations: ACTB: actin, beta; ATG: autophagy related; BNIP3: BCL2 interacting protein 3; BNIP3L/NIX: BCL2 interacting protein 3 like; BUN: blood urea nitrogen; CASP3: caspase 3; CCCP: carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone; COX4I1: cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4I1; COX8: cytochrome c oxidase subunit 8; DAPI: 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; DNM1L: dynamin 1 like; EGFP: enhanced green fluorescent protein; EM: electron microscopy; ER: endoplasmic reticulum; FC: floxed control; FIS1: fission, mitochondrial 1; FUNDC1: FUN14 domain containing 1; H-E: hematoxylin-eosin; HIF1A: hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha; HSPD1: heat shock protein family D (Hsp60) member 1; IMMT/MIC60: inner membrane mitochondrial protein; IPC: ischemic preconditioning; I-R: ischemia-reperfusion; IRI: ischemia-reperfusion injury; JC-1: 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolylcarbocyanine iodide; KO: knockout; MAP1LC3B/LC3B: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; mito-QC: mito-quality control; mRFP: monomeric red fluorescent protein; NAC: N-acetylcysteine; PINK1: PTEN induced putative kinase 1; PPIB: peptidylprolyl isomerase B; PRKN: parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase; ROS: reactive oxygen species; RPTC: rat proximal tubular cells; SD: standard deviation; sIPC: simulated IPC; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1; TOMM20: translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20; TUNEL: terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling.

    Exogenous Gene Transmission of Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 2 Mimics Ischemic Preconditioning Protection
    (American Society of Nephrology, 2018-04) Kolb, Alexander L.; Corridon, Peter R.; Zhang, Shijun; Xu, Weimin; Witzmann, Frank A.; Collett, Jason A.; Rhodes, George J.; Winfree, Seth; Bready, Devin; Pfeffenberger, Zechariah J.; Pomerantz, Jeremy M.; Hato, Takashi; Nagami, Glenn T.; Molitoris, Bruce A.; Basile, David P.; Atkinson, Simon J.; Bacallao, Robert L.; Biology, School of Science
    Ischemic preconditioning confers organ-wide protection against subsequent ischemic stress. A substantial body of evidence underscores the importance of mitochondria adaptation as a critical component of cell protection from ischemia. To identify changes in mitochondria protein expression in response to ischemic preconditioning, we isolated mitochondria from ischemic preconditioned kidneys and sham-treated kidneys as a basis for comparison. The proteomic screen identified highly upregulated proteins, including NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2), and we confirmed the ability of this protein to confer cellular protection from injury in murine S3 proximal tubule cells subjected to hypoxia. To further evaluate the role of IDH2 in cell protection, we performed detailed analysis of the effects of Idh2 gene delivery on kidney susceptibility to ischemia-reperfusion injury. Gene delivery of IDH2 before injury attenuated the injury-induced rise in serum creatinine (P<0.05) observed in controls and increased the mitochondria membrane potential (P<0.05), maximal respiratory capacity (P<0.05), and intracellular ATP levels (P<0.05) above those in controls. This communication shows that gene delivery of Idh2 can confer organ-wide protection against subsequent ischemia-reperfusion injury and mimics ischemic preconditioning.
