[0228] Materials and Methods

[0229] Reagents and Chemicals

[0230] Mouse anti-cardiotrophin-1 antibody and preimmune goat IgG control were provided by Digna-Biotech (Pamplona, ​​Spain) and prepared by R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN). Both agents were dissolved in 0.9% saline solution to a final concentration of 5 μg / ml. For anesthesia, a 2:2:1 mixture of ketamine (Ketolar, Pfizer), benzodiazepine (Valium, Roche), and atropine (Atropina, Braun) was used. For the postoperative period, buprenorphine 0.3 mg / ml (Buprex, Schering-Plough) was purchased.

Abstract

The present invention relates to the use of cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) for the prevention and / or treatment of acute renal injury, specially of acute kidney injury induced by nephrotoxic agents, such as contrast agents, antibiotics, immunosuppressive agents or antineoplastic agents. The invention is also related to compositions comprising said nephrotoxic agents and cardiotrophin-1.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the use of cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) for preventing and / or treating acute kidney injury, especially acute kidney injury induced by nephrotoxic agents. Likewise, the present invention also relates to compositions comprising said nephrotoxic agent and cardiotrophin-1. Background technique [0002] Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complex process of damage to various kidney structures that leads to a sudden loss of all or part of renal function, producing acute renal failure (AKF) within a short period of time, ranging from hours to days (López -Novoa JM. Kidney Int. 1999;55:1672-1682; López-Novoa JM et al. Kidney Int. 2011;79:33-45). Typically, the term AKI is used to define the reversible nature of most renal insults; whereas the term AKF is reserved to describe conditions in patients with renal impairment that include decreased glomerular filtrate and renal excretion for which renal replacement therapy is required ( KRT), ...
