Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

In summary, we were able to demonstrate for the first time: We were able to demonstrate that inflammasome activation precedes glomerular damage and podocytes specific inflammasome genetic inactivation contributes to diabetic nephropathy. Mechanistically mitochondrial ROS and redox regulator p66Shc promotes glomerular inflammasome activation and nephropathy in diabetic mice. Since diabetic nephropathy remains a major therapeutic challenge in diabetic patients, these data could be of translational relevance. We showed that diabetic nephropathy can be therapeutic targeted by IL-R1 antagonist (Anakinra) and mitochondrial anti-oxidant (MitoTEMPO). Furthermore, we also showed that stabilization of endogenous antioxidant Nrf2 by minocycline protects against NLRP3-inflammasome induced diabetic nephropathy. We were able to discover a new anti-inflammatory effect in the context of ischemia reperfusion damage. We showed that cytoprotective coagulation protease activated protein C is an endogenous negative regulator of inflammasome activation after ischemia-reperfusion damage and thus reduces the consequences of myocardial and renal ischemia. Importantly, a biased agonist of PAR-1 (parmodulin-2) mimics inflammasome suppression and cytoprotection after ischemia reperfusion injury. Since ischemia-reperfusion damage continues to be a major clinical challenge, this finding is also relevant.
