- W3136435269 abstract "Abstract Aims Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a new class of antidiabetic drugs, are nephroprotective in case of diabetes, but whether a similar beneficial effect may be detectable also in case of chronic non-diabetic kidney diseases remains still unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of empagliflozin, a SGLT-2 inhibitor, on the progression of cyclosporine nephropathy, in the absence of diabetes. Methods Sprague Dawley rats ( n = 27) have been fed with low-salt diet starting 10 days before the beginning and finished at the end of the experimental period. Cyclosporine-A (CsA, 15 mg/kg/day, intraperitoneal injection, n = 8) and CsA plus empagliflozin (Empa, 10 mg/kg/day, per os, n = 7) were administered for 4 weeks. The control groups were treated with placebo (Control, n = 7) or empagliflozin (Control + Empa, n = 5). Blood pressure (plethysmographic method) was measured at the beginning and at the end of the experimental period. At the end of the experimental protocol, the kidneys were excised for histomorphometric analysis of renal fibrosis and for immunohistochemical evaluation of inflammatory infiltrates (monocytes/macrophages), type I and type IV collagen expression, and tyrosine hydroxylase expression, used as marker of sympathetic nerve activity. Results CsA-treated rats showed a significant increase ( p < 0.01) in blood pressure, which was reduced by administration of empagliflozin ( p < 0.05). CsA administration caused an increase in glomerular and tubulo-interstitial fibrosis ( p < 0.05), renal inflammatory infiltrates ( p < 0.05), type I and type IV collagen expression ( p < 0.01), and tyrosine hydroxylase expression ( p < 0.01) as compared to the control rats and control + Empa-treated rats. Treatment with empagliflozin in CsA-treated rats reduced glomerular ( p < 0.01) and tubulo-interstitial fibrosis ( p < 0.05), type I and type IV collagen expression ( p < 0.01), inflammatory cell infiltration ( p < 0.01) and tyrosine hydroxylase expression ( p < 0.05), as compared to rats treated with CsA. Conclusion Empagliflozin administration caused a reduction in blood pressure in CsA-treated rats and showed a protective effect on CsA nephropathy by decreasing renal fibrosis, type I and type IV collagen expression, macrophage infiltration and tyrosine hydroxylase expression. These data suggest that empagliflozin promotes nephroprotection also in non-diabetic kidney disease." @default.
