ABSTRACT
The accumulation of uric acid (UA) in the body can lead to the occurrence of hyperuricemia or uric acid nephropathy. Mast cells (MCs) increase oxidative stress and release renin to promote the production of Ang II. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of UA on MCs in rat kidneys and the association between MCs and renal injury. Our results show that UA accumulation in the kidney stimulated the degranulation of MCs and the release of renin to promote Ang II production, resulting in renal oxidative stress, mitochondrial structural damage, and microvascular system damage. The expression of urate-related transporters was regulated by the UA level and serum urinary toxins levels were substantially elevated in hyperuricemia. Administration of the MCs membrane stabilizer sodium cromoglycate (SCG) or the angiotensin receptor antagonist Valsartan decreased the production of renin and Ang II and relieved renal oxidative stress, mitigated mitochondrial structural damage and microvascular system damage, and promoted the excretion of UA and urinary toxins by increasing the expression of urate-related transporters. These results demonstrate that the accumulation of UA in the kidney can trigger the degranulation of MCs and promote the development of renal oxidative stress. Administration of SCG and Valsartan ameliorated UA-induced renal injury by inhibiting MCs degranulation and reducing renal oxidative stress by inhibiting renin and Ang II production and accelerating renal clearance of UA and uremic toxins.
