Biotin-cysteine was used to study protein S-thiolation in isolated rat kidneys subjected to ischemia and reperfusion. After 40 min of ischemia, total protein S-thiolation increased significantly (P < 0.05), by 311%, and remained significantly elevated (P < 0.05), 221% above control, after 5 min of postischemic reperfusion. Treatment of protein samples with 2-mercaptoethanol abolished the S-thiolation signals detected, consistent with the dependence of the signal on the presence of a disulfide bond. With the use of gel filtration chromatography followed by affinity purification with streptavidin-agarose, S-thiolated proteins were purified from CHAPS-soluble kidney homogenate. The proteins were then separated by SDS-PAGE and stained with Coomassie blue. With a combination of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry and LC/MS/MS analysis of protein bands digested with trypsin, a number of S-thiolation substrates were identified. These included the LDL receptor-related protein 2, ATP synthase alpha chain, heat shock protein 90 beta, hydroxyacid oxidase 3, serum albumin precursor, triose phosphate isomerase, and lamin. These represent proteins that may be functionally regulated by S-thiolation and thus could undergo a change in activity or function after renal ischemia and reperfusion.

1. The injection of trypsin into both renal arteries of the dog was found to cause an acute necrosis of large sections of the kidney, an immediate excretory insufficiency, and a transient hypertension. 2. Dogs surviving the acute phase of the trypsin injection, developed a chronic renal excretory insufficiency with no hypertension, despite the severity and duration of the renal excretory insufficiency. 3. The application of a Goldblatt clamp to the renal artery of one of the two kidneys, previously injected with trypsin, led to a rise in blood pressure which returned at once to normal when the ischemic kidney was removed, even though the pre-existing renal excretory insufficiency was augmented. This experience demonstrated unequivocally that chronic renal excretory insufficiency and hypertension are not directly related. 4. The application of a Goldblatt clamp to the renal artery of one kidney and the simultaneous injection of trypsin into the other led to a hypertension. The later removal of the ischemic kidney led to a severe renal excretory insufficiency, at the same time the pre-existing hypertension disappeared. This indicated again that renal excretory insufficiency and renal ischemia produced different phenomena and that the former had no direct relation to hypertension.
