    Abstract Acute poststreptococcal GN (APSGN) is the prototype of immune complex GN and is associated with manifestations of autoimmune reactivity that have been neglected as epiphenomena. Recently, studies have demonstrated transient antifactor B autoantibodies that activate the alternative complement pathway, bringing self-immunity to a central position in the pathogenesis of APSGN. Therefore, examining other manifestations of autoimmunity that have been reported in association with poststreptococcal GN is of interest. This article reviews the renal and extrarenal manifestations of autoimmune reactivity in APSGN and considers their potential relevance in modifying the usually benign clinical course of the disease. It also discusses related aspects of the nephritogenic antigens, complement activation, and genetic elements associated with immune reactivity and their potential relevance to the familial incidence of the disease.

    Title translation La relación hiperuricemia-HSP70-NLRP3 inflamosoma en la hipertensión arterial.
    Abstract Arterial hypertension is the most important cardiovascular risk factor in chronic non-communicable diseases and is estimated to be responsible for 10.4 million deaths annually. The global prevalence of hypertension is 30% and the majority of people with hypertension do not have a clear identifiable cause and are considered to have primary hypertension. Experimental and clinical investigations from several research groups, including ours, have established that inflammation and autoimmune reactivity play a role in the sodium retention and hemodynamic responses that drive primary hypertension. Hyperuricemia and heat stress proteins (HSP), particularly HSP70, are both associated with the activation of innate immunity that plays a role in the development of inflammatory reactivity in the hypertensive patient. Clinical studies have shown an association between the expression of HSP70 and anti-HSP70 antibodies and primary hypertension. This brief review aims to examine the interrelation between hyperuricemia and extracellular overexpression of HSP70 in the activation of the inflammasome that may have a central role in the pathophysiology of primary hypertension.

    Abstract An exploration of the normal limits of physiologic responses and how these responses are lost when the kidney is injured rarely occurs in clinical practice. However, the differences between "resting" and "stressed" responses identify an adaptive reactiveness that is diminished before baseline function is impaired. This functional reserve is important in the evaluation of prognosis and progression of kidney disease. Here, we discuss stress tests that examine protein-induced hyperfiltration, proximal tubular secretion, urea-selective concentration defects, and acid retention. We discuss diseases in which these tests have been used to diagnose subclinical injury. The study and follow-up of abnormal functional reserve may add considerable understanding to the natural history of CKD.

    Abstract Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) production is a stress-generated cellular response with high interspecies homology. HSP70 has both chaperone and cytokine functions and may induce, depending on the context, tolerogenic anti-inflammatory reactivity or immunogenic and autoimmune reactivity. Intracellular (chaperoning transit of antigens to MHC in antigen-presenting cells) and extracellular HSP70-related effects are associated with hypertension, which is an inflammatory condition recognized as the most important risk factor for cardiovascular disease mortality. Here, we review (a) the relationship between HSP70, inflammation and immune reactivity, (b) clinical evidence relating to stress, HSP70 and anti-HSP70 reactivity with primary hypertension and (c) experimental data showing that salt-sensitive hypertension is associated with delayed hypersensitivity to HSP70. This is a consequence of anti-HSP70 reactivity in the kidneys and may be prevented and corrected by the T-cell-driven inhibition of kidney inflammation triggered by specific epitopes of HSP70. Finally, we discuss our postulate that lifelong stress signals and danger-associated molecular patterns stimulate HSP-70 and individual genetic and epigenetic characteristics determine whether the HSP70 response would drive inflammatory immune reactivity causing hypertension or, alternatively, would drive immunomodulatory responses that protect against hypertension.

    Abstract Hypertension (HTN) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are increasingly recognized in pediatric patients and represent risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality later in life. In CKD, enhanced tubular sodium reabsorption is a leading cause of HTN due to augmented extracellular fluid volume expansion. The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) upregulates various tubular sodium cotransporters that are also targets of the hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and its co-receptor Klotho. FGF23 inhibits the activation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D that is a potent suppressor of renin biosynthesis. Here we review the complex interactions and disturbances of the FGF23-Klotho axis, vitamin D, and the RAAS relevant to blood pressure regulation and discuss the therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating their pathophysiologic contributions to HTN.
