Autophagy is important for cells to break down and recycle cellular proteins, remove damaged organelles, and especially, for recovery from acute kidney injury (AKI). Despite research on the role and cellular mechanism of autophagy in AKI, the role of autophagy in the progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains poorly understood. Here, using farnesoid X receptor (FXR) knockout (KO) mice, we determined whether FXR prevents the progression of AKI to CKD after renal ischemic-reperfusion (such as I/R) injury through the regulation of renal autophagy and apoptosis. FXR regulated genes that participate in renal autophagy under feeding and fasting conditions, such as hepatic autophagy, and the activation of FXR by agonists, such as GW4064 and INT-747, attenuated the increased autophagy and apoptosis of hypoxia-induced human renal proximal tubule epithelial (HK2) cells. The expression levels of autophagy-related and apoptosis-related proteins in FXR KO mice were increased compared with those in wild-type (WT) mice. We also showed that the increase in reactive oxidative species (ROS) in hypoxia-treated HK2 cells was attenuated by treatment with FXR agonist or by FXR overexpression, and that the level of ROS was elevated in FXR-deficient cells and mice. At 28 days after I/R injury, the autophagy levels were still elevated in FXR KO mice, and the expression levels of fibrosis-related proteins and ROS deposits were higher than those in WT mice. In conclusion, the regulation of renal autophagy and apoptosis by FXR may be a therapeutic target for the early stages of kidney damage, and the progression of AKI to CKD.
