Abstract in Portuguese
Objetivamos investigar o papel da quinase ativada por adenosina monofosfato (AMPK) na doença renal crônica. Induzimos nefrite túbulo-intersticial (NTI) em camundongos C57BL/6 e LyzM-cre AMPKflox/flox através de ração com adenina, e tratamos com metformina (Met) 200 mg/kg/dia. Avaliamos ainda o efeito da Met sobre a transição epitélio-mesenquimal (TEM) em células tubulares epiteliais renais murinas (linhagem MM55.K). Os C57BL/6 tratados apresentaram preservação da função renal; maior frequência de macrófagos (MØ) M1, em detrimento dos M2; e redução de marcadores de fibrose. Os LyzM-cre AMPK-/- não diferiram dos LyzM-cre AMPK+/+ quanto à intensidade da lesão, por a molécula já se encontrar infrarregulada na NTI. Contudo, ao serem tratados com Met, os LyzM-cre AMPK+/+ evoluíram melhor do que os não tratados, o mesmo não se verificando nos LyzM-cre AMPK-/-, sugerindo que a ação da Met nos MØ é dependente de AMPK. As MM55.K, após estímulo com Met, exibiram maior captação de glicose, expressão do transportador Glut-2, ativação da glicólise, e resistência à TEM.

Abstract in English
We aimed to investigate the role of adenosine monophosphate activated kinase (AMPK) on chronic kidney disease. We induced tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) in C57BL/6 and LyzM-cre AMPKflox/flox mice by feeding them adenine diet, and then treating with metformin (Met) 200 mg/kg/day. We also evaluated the effect of Met on epithelium-to-mesenchyma transition (EMT) of murine epithelial renal tubular cells (lineage MM55.K). Met-treated C57BL/6 mice presented preserved kidney function, greater frequency of M1 macrophages (MØ) compared to M2 ones, and reduced markers of fibrosis. Disease severity on LyzM-cre AMPK-/- and AMPK+/+ mice did not differ, since the molecule was already downregulated on TIN. However, by treating them with Met, LyzM-cre AMPK+/+ improved in comparison to the non-treated mice. The same did not happen with LyzM-cre AMPK-/- mice, suggesting that Met effect on MØ is AMPK-dependent. MM55.K cells, after stimulus with Met, showed increased glucose uptake, greater expression of the transporter Glut-2, activation of glycolysis, and resistance to EMT.
