Volume 62, Issue 4, Pages 1338-1348 (October 2002) Protective role of nitric oxide in mice with Shiga toxin-induced hemolytic uremic syndrome  Graciela I. Dran, Gabriela C. Fernández, Carolina J. Rubel, Emilse Bermejo, Sonia Gomez, Roberto Meiss, Martín A. Isturiz, Marina S. Palermo  Kidney International  Volume 62, Issue 4, Pages 1338-1348 (October 2002) DOI: 10.1111/j.1523-1755.2002.kid554.x Copyright © 2002 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Effect of nitric oxide (NO) modulation on Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2)-induced lethality. (A) Effect of L-NAME modulation upon Stx2-induced lethality. Groups of six mice were treated with nothing, L-NAME, D-NAME, L-NIL or AG from time -24 hours until the end of the experiment. At time 0, mice were intravenously injected with 500pg of Stx2; time of death was evaluated up to 150 hours after Stx2 injection. Pooled survival percentages corresponding to seven separate experiments are shown. (*P < 0.01, compared to Stx2). (B) Reversibility of L-NAME–induced increment in Stx2-mediated mortality by the NOS substrate, L-ARG (*P < 0.05, compared to Stx2+L-NAME+L-ARG, N = 10).

Figure 2 Plasmatic urea variation induced by Stx2 and L-NAME. Mice were bled at different times after Stx2 injection. Data are from one representative experiment out of five, and show mean ± SEM of plasmatic urea values from 10 mice/group (*P < 0.01, compared to controls; #P < 0.01, compared to Stx2, to L-NAME and to Stx2+L-NAME+L-ARG).

Figure 3 Histology of kidneys from Stx2-treated animals (H&E, PAS staining). (A) Renal cortical tissue showing mild glomerular mesangial hypercellularity and crescent formation. Glomerular capillaries with mild incipient thrombus formation (×400). (B) Cortical tubular epithelial cell swelling. Tubular cells with loss of apical microvilli and tubular basement membrane shrinkage (×400).

Figure 4 Histology of kidneys from Stx2+L-NAME-treated animals (H&E, PAS staining). (A) Cortical renal tissue with glomeruli and proximal cortical tubules showing a widespread severe damage (×250). (B) Glomeruli with hypercellularity, crescent formation and evident capillary thrombosis, surrounded by cortical tubules with acute epithelium necrosis (×400). (C) Distal cortical tubules with severe necrosis of tubular epithelium and dilated interstitial capillaries (×250). (D) Loss of tubular architecture due to severe and broad necrosis (×400).

Figure 5 Immunostaining for fibrinogen. (A) A mean number of 100 fields (×40) was counted and the percentage (± SEM) of glomeruli positively stained for fibrinogen was determined for every experimental group (*P < 0.001, compared to controls and to L-NAME; #P < 0.0125, compared to Stx2 and to Stx2+L-NAME+L-ARG). (B) Renal section from Stx2-treated mice, showing 1 out of 4 glomeruli positively stained for fibrinogen (arrow) (×250). The inset shows that the antifibrinogen antibody has specifically detected thrombosis in glomerular capillaries (×400). (C) Renal section from Stx2+L-NAME-treated mice, where every glomerulus is positively stained (×250). The insert shows a glomerulus with highly stained material in the vessel wall and occluding the lumen (×400).

Figure 6 Platelet aggregative response against (A) arachidonic acid (AA) (B) or adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Results are from one representative experiment out of five and are expressed as the percentage of aggregation compared to control (100%). Platelet rich plasma (PRP) from controls, Stx2 and Stx2+L-NAME-treated mice were obtained at different times after Stx2 injection and incubated with AA (final concentration: 0.5mmol/L) or ADP (final concentration: 2.5 μmol/L). *P < 0.01, compared to controls; #P < 0.05, compared to Stx2.

Figure 7 Mepacrine staining in platelets from Stx2- and Stx2+L-NAME-treated animals (A). Symbols are: () saline; () Stx2. Mice were bled daily at different times after Stx2 injection (500 pg/mice). Mepacrine staining was determined by flow cytometry. Each bar represents the mean percentage of mepacrine positive cells (% MPC) ± SEM of six mice from one representative experiment out of five (*P < 0.01, compared to controls, saline injected animals) (B). Percentages of MPC at 48 hours after Stx2 injection (300 pg/mice) corresponding to six mice of a representative experiment out of three (*P < 0.05, compared to saline, to Stx2 and to Stx2+L-NAME+L-ARG-treated groups).

Figure 8 Stx2 and Stx2+L-NAME lethality in mice depleted from platelets. Groups of six mice were injected with a rabbit polyclonal antiserum against mouse platelets (Ab), to induce significant reduction in platelet number. Then mice received Stx2 or Stx2+L-NAME as detailed before. Pooled survival percentages corresponding to 18 animals are shown (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01, compared to Stx2+Ab+L-NAME).
