Sumario:Fibrosis and apoptosis gene pattern in experimental obstructive nephropathy: Rosuvastatin modulation Obstructive nephropathy renal disorder can be complex to treat due to the severe apoptosis and fibrosis. Previous studies shown that rosuvastatin (Ros), may have potential utility as a therapeutic option in kidney diseases which lead to apoptosis and fibrosis. Objective: to evaluate the possible antifibrotic and antiapoptotic effects of Ros during experimental neonatal rats unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). Materials and Methods: Neonatal rats were surgically obstructed (experimental group) or not (control group), which were Ros treated or not (10 mg/kg per day) during 14 days. Subsequent nephrectomy and processing of the renal cortex to determinate by RT-PCR technique, genes expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), heat shock factor 1 (hsf1), heat shock protein 70 (hsp70), bax, bcl2, wt1, p53, snail, bone morphogenetic protein (bmp7), E-cadherin, transforming growth factor (tgf-β) and tumor necrosis factor (tnf-α). Results: neonatal UUO induced fibrosis and apoptosis, while Ros treatment modulated the fibrotic and apoptotic genes pattern and increased the bmp7, Ecadherin, wt1, p53 and bcl2 expression as well as decreased the profibrotic and proapoptotic genes expression (bax, tnf-α y tgf-β). Our results allow us to suggest that Ros renal protection during UUO is linked to hsp70 and nitric oxide bioavailability interaction, with concomitant decrease in pro apoptotic gene pattern.
