Abstract | Through improved insight in the increasing incidence and detrimental effects of acute kidney injury (AKI), its clinical relevance has become more and more apparent. Although treatment strategies for AKI have also somewhat improved, an adequate remedy still does not exist. Finding one is complicated by a multifactorial pathophysiology and by heterogeneity in the patient population. Alkaline phosphatase (AP) has been suggested as a therapy for sepsis-associated AKI because of its protective effects against lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced inflammation and kidney injury in animals. However, translation of these protective effects into tangible clinical benefit has proven difficult. Because the anti-inflammatory properties of AP are likely not reliant on a direct effect on LPS itself, we postulate that other pathways are much more important in explaining the renoprotective properties ascribed to AP. The reevaluation of which properties of the AP enzyme are responsible for the benefit seen in the lab, is an important step to determine where the true potential of AP as a treatment strategy for AKI in the clinic lies. In this review, we will discuss how AP can prevent activation of harmful pro-inflammatory receptors, redirect cell-cell signaling, and protect barrier tissues, which together form the basis for current knowledge of the role of AP in the kidney. With this knowledge in mind and by analyzing currently available clinical evidence, we propose directions for new research that can determine whether AP as a treatment strategy for AKI has a future in the clinical field. |
