Glomerular and microvascular thrombosis due to the activation of inflammation and coagulation pathway contribute to the occurrence of acute renal failure in sepsis. The protease-activated receptors (PARs) have been shown to play an important role in the interplay between inflammation and coagulation. We hypothesized that PAR-2 blocking would improve glomerular and vascular thrombosis by attenuating inflammation and coagulation, leading to the prevention of acute renal failure, and assessed the effects of the PAR-2 blocking peptide (PAR-2 BP) in a rat model of LPS-induced acute renal failure. Levels of TNF-alpha were significantly expressed 1 h after LPS administration, followed by 1) an increase in levels of tissue factor, factor VIIa, factor Xa, thrombin and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1; 2) unchanged levels of tissue factor pathway inhibitor; and 3) subsequent deposition of fibrin in kidney tissues, which led to the elevation of creatinine and blood urea nitrogen. Time-dependent PAR-2 expression was observed at both the gene and protein levels. Immunoreactivities of PAR-2 and fibrin were observed in the glomerulus and small arteries. Protease-activated receptor blocking peptide suppressed TNF-alpha elevation and attenuated activation of the coagulation, thus leading to a decrease in fibrin formation and its deposition in the glomerulus. However, the levels of creatinine and blood urea nitrogen remained unchanged. These results show that PAR-2 plays a key role in the inflammatory and coagulation process of LPS-induced renal failure; however, PAR-2 inhibition alone does not affect improvement in the renal function.
