    Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequently accompanied by activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). This may result from pre-exisiting chronic diseases associated with sympathetic activation prior to AKI or it may be induced by stressors that ultimately lead to AKI such as endotoxins and arterial hypotension in circulatory shock. Conversely, sympathetic activation may also result from acute renal injury. Focusing on studies in experimental renal ischaemia and reperfusion (IR), this review summarizes the current knowledge on how the SNS is activated in IR-induced AKI and on the consequences of sympathetic activation for the development of acute renal damage. Experimental studies show beneficial effects of sympathoinhibitory interventions on renal structure and function in response to IR. However, few clinical trials obtained in scenarios that correspond to experimental IR, namely major elective surgery, showed that peri-operative treatment with centrally acting sympatholytics reduced the incidence of AKI. Apparently, discrepant findings on how sympathetic activation influences renal responses to acute IR-induced injury are discussed and future areas of research in this field are identified.

    Abstract Increased renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) is present in human and experimental forms of arterial hypertension. Experimental denervation studies showed that renal nerves contribute to the development of hypertension. Clinical trials provided equivocal results on the antihypertensive efficacy of renal denervation in patients spurring discussions on technical aspects of renal denervation and further research on the role of renal nerves for the regulation of kidney function as well as the pathophysiology of hypertension. This review summarizes recent findings on adrenoceptor expression and function in the human kidney, adrenoceptor-dependent regulation of sodium chloride transport in the distal nephron, experimental data on chronic RSNA and the development of high arterial pressure and consequences of renal denervation that may limit its antihypertensive efficacy. Future research needs to reduce the gap between our knowledge on neural control of renal function in animals vs. humans to facilitate translation of experimental animal data to humans. More experimental studies on the temporal relationship between RSNA and arterial pressure in the chronic setting are needed to better define the pathogenetic role of heightened RSNA in different forms of arterial hypertension in order to improve the rational basis for renal denervation in antihypertensive therapy. Finally, research on unintended consequences of renal denervation including but not limited to reinnervation and denervation supersensitivity needs to be intensified to further assess the potential of renal denervation to slow the progression of renal disease and hypertension.

    Abstract Arterial hypertension is a major health problem, accounting for 12 % of the global death rate. A large proportion of patients treated for high blood pressure do not reach target blood pressure values. The question arises if new antihypertensive drugs could improve present hypertension treatment. Rho-kinases (ROCKs) are ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine kinases and involved in a variety of cell functions. They contribute to the pathogenesis of human and experimental hypertension. Pharmacological ROCK inhibition has been shown to effectively lower blood pressure in patients and experimental animals. Progress has been made towards the understanding on how non-selective ROCK inhibitors lower arterial pressure and efforts are currently undertaken to develop ROCK inhibitors to improve their specificity and isoenzyme selectivity. If introduction of ROCK inhibitors for the treatment of high blood pressure can significantly advance currently available options of antihypertensive pharmacotherapy awaits further experimental and clinical research.

    Abstract Objective: Small arteries from different organs vary with regard to the mechanisms that regulate vasoconstriction. This study investigated the impact of advanced age on the regulation of vasoconstriction in isolated human small arteries from kidney cortex and periintestinal mesenteric tissue.
    Methods: Renal and mesenteric tissues were obtained from patients (mean age 71 ± 9 years) undergoing elective surgery. Furthermore, intrarenal and mesenteric arteries from young and aged mice were studied. Arteries were investigated by small vessel myography and western blot.
    Results: Human intrarenal arteries (h-RA) showed higher stretch-induced tone and higher reactivity to α 1 adrenergic receptor stimulation than human mesenteric arteries (h-MA). Rho-kinase (ROK) inhibition resulted in a greater decrease in Ca 2+ and depolarization-induced tone in h-RA than in h-MA. Basal and α 1 adrenergic receptor stimulation-induced phosphorylation of the regulatory light chain of myosin (MLC 20 ) was higher in h-RA than in h-MA. This was associated with higher ROK-dependent phosphorylation of the regulatory subunit of myosin light-chain-phosphatase (MLCP), MYPT1-T853. In h-RA phosphorylation of ribosomal S6-kinase II (RSK2-S227) was significantly higher than in h-MA. Stretch-induced tone and RSK2 phosphorylation was also higher in interlobar arteries (m-IAs) from aged mice than in respective vessels from young mice and in murine mesenteric arteries (m-MA) from both age groups.
    Conclusion: Vasoconstriction in human intrarenal arteries shows a greater ROK-dependence than in mesenteric arteries. Activation of RSK2 may contribute to intrarenal artery tone dysregulation associated with aging. Compared with h-RA, h-MA undergo age-related remodeling leading to a reduction of the contractile response to α 1 adrenergic stimulation.
