The role of CSK in the regulation of immune cell recruitment and metabolism during acute kidney injury
Principal investigators: Verena Hörr, Andreas Margraf
Former principal investigator: Stefan Reuter
Project number: CRC 1450 C05
Project term: 01/2021–12/2028
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterised by impaired perfusion, a metabolic shift towards anaerobic glucose consumption and the secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators. We hypothesize that interleukin 24, which we recently identified in kidneys with AKI, is a key mediator in AKI (1). This leads us to investigate the influence of interleukin 24 on the functional, metabolic and cellular response of kidney cells and leukocytes during all stages of AKI (2, 3, 4).
We will use a multiscale imaging approach with special emphasis on the development and application of novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques, such as Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST) MRI (5, 6).
