This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY 3.0), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited. ABSTRACT Background: Anemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Treating renal anemia with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) or erythropoietin analogs is effective but has side effects. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of roxadustat in treating CKD-induced anemia. Methods: We searched publications online and conducted a meta-analysis and calculated relative risks with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for dichotomous data and mean differences (MD) with 95% CIs for continuous data. Results: Of 110 articles, nine were included that contained 12 data sets and 11 randomized control trials on roxadustat. In the non-dialysis-dependent (NDD) high-dose/low-dose subgroups, the change in hemoglobin (Hb) levels was significantly higher in the roxadustat group than in the placebo group (P<0.0001, P=0.001, respectively).

  • Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF) Prolyl Hydroxylase Inhibitors Induce Autophagy and Have a Protective Efect in an In-Vitro Ischaemia Model Ayesha Singh1, James W
    www.nature.com/scientificreports Corrected: Author Correction OPEN Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors induce autophagy and have a protective efect in an in-vitro ischaemia model Ayesha Singh1, James W. Wilson1, Christopher J. Schofeld 2 & Ruoli Chen 1* This study compared efects of fve hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylases (PHD) inhibitors on PC12 cells and primary rat neurons following oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). At 100 µM, the PHD inhibitors did not cause cytotoxicity and apoptosis. MTT activity was only signifcantly reduced by FG4592 or Bayer 85–3934 in PC12 cells. The PHD inhibitors at 100 µM signifcantly increased the LC3-II/LC3-I expression ratio and downregulated p62 in PC12 cells, so did FG4592 (30 µM) and DMOG (100 µM) in neurons. HIF-1α was stabilised in PC12 cells by all the PHD inhibitors at 100 µM except for DMOG, which stabilised HIF-1α at 1 and 2 mM. In primary neurons, HIF-1α was stabilised by FG4592 (30 µM) and DMOG (100 µM). Pretreatment with the PHD inhibitors 24 hours followed by 24 hour reoxygenation prior to 6 hours OGD (0.3% O2) signifcantly reduced LDH release and increased MTT activity compared to vehicle (1% DMSO) pretreatment. In conclusion, the PHD inhibitors stabilise HIF-1α in normoxia, induce autophagy, and protect cells from a subsequent OGD insult. The new class of PHD inhibitors (FG4592, FG2216, GSK1278863, Bay85-3934) have the higher potency than DMOG. The interplay between autophagy, HIF stabilisation and neuroprotection in ischaemic stroke merits further investigation. Te hypoxia inducible transcription factors (HIF) are regulators of cellular responses to hypoxia in mammals.

A R T I C L E I N F O A B S T R A C T Keywords: Chronic Kidney Disease Anemia contributes to increased morbidity and mortality in chronic kidney disease Anemia patients. The pathogenesis of anemia in these patients is multifactorial, but the Erythropoiesis-stimulating Agents contribution of erythropoietin deficiency becomes greater as glomerular filtration Hypoxia Inducible Factor Stabilizer. rate declines which related to decreased nephron mass. The current standard of care includes supplemental iron, erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA), and red blood cell transfusions, although each has drawbacks. Lately, concern has arisen *Corresponding author: following randomized clinical trials showing that higher hemoglobin targets and/or high ESA doses may cause significant harm including increasing cardiovascular and Emilia thrombotic events, and even death. Recent experimental and clinical studies show the promising efficacy of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) stabilizer which
