BACKGROUND: Calcium dobesilate (CaD) is a microvascular protective agent that can significantly improve kidney function by reducing urinary protein, serum creatinine, and urea nitrogen levels. The effects of CaD on ischemia-reperfusion-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) were investigated in this study.

METHOD: In this study, The Balb/c mice were randomly divided into (1) sham group, (2) I/R group, (3) I/R group + CaD (50 mg/kg) and (4) I/R group + CaD (500 mg/kg). After treatment, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were detected. The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malonaldehyde (MDA) were examined. Then, the effects of CaD H2O2-damaged HK-2 cells were investigated, as reflected by the results of cell viability, reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, apoptosis and markers of kidney injury.

RESULTS: The results showed that CaD treatment effectively attenuated the renal functions, pathological changes, and oxidative stress in I/R-induced AKI mice. It effectively reduced ROS production and improved MMP and apoptosis in H2O2-damaged HK-2 cells. The increased expression of apoptosis-related proteins and kidney injury biomarkers were significantly ameliorated after CaD treatment.

CONCLUSION: Overall, CaD effectively ameliorated renal injury by eliminating ROS and demonstrated in vivo and in vitro for I/R-induced AKI. CaD has been shown to be a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of I/R-induced AKI.
