RP represents a generalized vasculopathy and potentially lead to digital ulcers (DU), which may be complicated by superinfection, tissue necrosis, and limb loss. We report the analysis of an extracorporeal procedure in a 36-year-old female patient with diffuse SSc with refractory RP and DU despite treatment with diltiazem, candesartan, sildenafil, and intravenous iloprost. We performed rheopheresis (RheoP), a variant of double-filtration plasmapheresis, as a potential new treatment option for refractory patients despite optimal medical therapy. We performed two RheoP per week every 4 weeks for a total of 3 months. Clinical improvement in DU healing occurred with no adverse events directly related to the treatment. While there was no reduction in the number of Raynaud attacks with RheoP, a significant reduction of the duration of attacks from a median of 15 (5–45, 95% CI 10–15) to 7 (3–30, 95% CI 6–10) minutes with an improvement of the Raynaud Condition Score (RCS) improved from 4 to 2. In conclusion, RheoP is a feasible and potentially beneficial treatment modality in patients with refractory RP and DU. We propose that RheoP should be investigated in a larger number of patients in a clinical trial setting."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fmed.2019.00208"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/16392"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/62449"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","2296-858X"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Rheopheresis for Digital Ulcers and Raynaud's Phenomenon in Systemic Sclerosis Refractory to Conventional Treatments"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Broad macroscopically visible scars are the sequelae of severe focal injury and complete parenchymal destruction, reflecting a wound healing response as a consequence of infarction. In the kidney, chronic glomerular injury leads to atrophy of the corresponding tubule, degeneration of this specific nephron, and finally interstitial fibrosis/tubular atrophy (IF/TA). Compared to this glomerulus-induced focal replacement scar, diffuse fibrosis independent of tubular atrophy appears to be a different pathogenic process. Kidney fibrosis appears to develop in a compartment-specific manner, but whether focal and diffuse fibrosis has distinct characteristics associated with other glomerular or tubulointerstitial lesions remains elusive. In the present study, we aimed to analyze renal fibrotic patterns related to renal lesions, which directly contribute to renal fibrogenesis, to unravel fibrotic patterns and manifestations upon damage to distinct renal compartments. Patterns of kidney fibrosis were analyzed in experimental models of CKD and various renal pathologies in correlation with histopathological and ultrastructural findings. After the induction of isolated crescentic glomerulonephritis (GN) in nephrotoxic serum-nephritis (NTN), chronic glomerular damage resulted in predominantly focal fibrosis adjacent to atrophic tubules. By contrast, using unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) as a model of primary injury to the tubulointerstitial compartment revealed diffuse fibrosis as the predominant pattern of chronic lesions. Finally, folic acid-induced nephropathy (FAN) as a model of primary tubular injury with consecutive tubular atrophy independent of chronic glomerular damage equally induced predominant focal IF/TA. By analyzing several renal pathologies, our data also suggest that focal and diffuse fibrosis appear to contribute as chronic lesions in the majority of human renal disease, mainly being present in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated GN, lupus nephritis, and IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Focal IF/TA correlated with glomerular damage and irreversible injury to nephrons, whereas diffuse fibrosis in ANCA GN was associated explicitly with interstitial inflammation independent of glomerular damage and nephron loss. Ultrastructural analysis of focal IF/TA versus diffuse fibrosis revealed distinct matrix compositions, further supported by different collagen signatures in transcriptome datasets. With regard to long-term renal outcome, only the extent of focal IF/TA correlated with the development of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in ANCA GN. In contrast, diffuse kidney fibrosis did not associate with the long-term renal outcome.

Kidney involvement is a common and severe complication of ANCA AAV which is observed in a considerable subset of patients, mainly affecting glomeruli. However, tubulointerstitial lesions have also been described in ANCA glomerulonephritis (GN). Therefore, we aim to describe active and chronic tubulointerstitial lesions in ANCA GN subtypes by systematic scoring analogous to the Banff scoring system while also utilizing clinical and laboratory findings. Methods: A total of 49 kidney biopsies with ANCA GN were retrospectively included in a single-center cohort study between 2015–2020. Results: We report that MPO-ANCA GN is associated with more severe deterioration of kidney function independent of systemic markers of AAV disease activity, and is also associated with increased proteinuria in MPO-ANCA GN and a decreased fraction of normal glomeruli. Finally, MPO-ANCA GN showed distinct, active, and chronic tubulointerstitial lesions. Conclusion: New insights into the pathophysiology of both entities, as well as differences in the clinical presentation of MPO- versus PR3-ANCA GN, could potentially pave the way for more precise treatment regimens. Therefore, it is important to understand the differences in histopathological presentation, especially in yet underestimated active tubulointerstitial lesions of ANCA GN subtypes.

In this regard, the acutely injured kidney often does not achieve its full regenerative capacity and AKI directly transitions into progressive CKD associated with tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Underlying mechanisms of such AKI-to-CKD progression are still incompletely understood and specific therapeutic interventions are still elusive. Because epigenetic modifications play a role in maintaining tissue fibrosis, we used a murine model of ischemia-reperfusion injury to determine whether aberrant promoter methylation of RASAL1 contributes causally to the switch between physiological regeneration and tubulointerstitial fibrogenesis, a hallmark of AKI-to-CKD progression. It is known that the antihypertensive drug hydralazine has demethylating activity, and that its optimum demethylating activity occurs at concentrations below blood pressure-lowering doses. Administration of low-dose hydralazine effectively induced expression of hydroxylase TET3, which catalyzed RASAL1 hydroxymethylation and subsequent RASAL1 promoter demethylation. Hydralazine-induced CpG promoter demethylation subsequently attenuated renal fibrosis and preserved excretory renal function independent of its blood pressure-lowering effects. In comparison, RASAL1 demethylation and inhibition of tubulointerstitial fibrosis was not detected upon administration of the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor Ramipril in this model. Thus, RASAL1 promoter methylation and subsequent transcriptional RASAL1 suppression plays a causal role in AKI-to-CKD progression."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.kint.2016.07.042"],["dc.identifier.pmid","27692563"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/64543"],["dc.identifier.url","https://sfb1002.med.uni-goettingen.de/production/literature/publications/307"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002: Modulatorische Einheiten bei Herzinsuffizienz"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002 | C01: Epigenetische Kontrolle der Herzfibrose"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002 | D03: ENPP3-vermittelter Phosphat-Metabolismus bei der Herzfibrose"],["dc.relation.eissn","1523-1755"],["dc.relation.issn","0085-2538"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG E.
