The present study aimed to investigate the role of α and β-adrenergic receptors (βARs) in mediation or modulation of the dexamethasone-induced nephrotoxicity by using different pharmacological interventions. Nephrotoxicity was induced by subcutaneous injection of dexamethasone (10 mg/kg) for 7 days in Wistar albino rats. Eight groups were used: control; dexamethasone; carvedilol; phenylephrine; carvedilol and phenylephrine; propranolol; doxazosin; propranolol and doxazosin. At the end of experiment, rats were euthanized and blood, urine and kidney samples were collected. Serum and urinary creatinine and urinary total protein levels were measured. Also, the renal tissue levels of diacylglycerol (DAG); Akt kinase activity, malondialdehyde (MDA), NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), Wnt3A and β-catenin were recorded. Furthermore, histopathological and β-arrestin2-immunohistochemical examinations of renal tissues were performed. Results: Dexamethasone induced glomerular damage, proteinuria, renal oxidative stress and upregulated the renal Wnt/β-arrestin2/β-catenin pathway and the profibrotic signals. Blocking the α1 and βARs by carvedilol reduced the dexamethasone-induced nephrotoxicity. Pre-injection of phenylephrine did not reduce the reno- protective action of carvedilol. Blocking the βARs only by propranolol reduced the dexamethasone-induced nephrotoxicity to the same extent of carvedilol group. Blocking the α1ARs only by doxazosin reduced dexamethasone-induced nephrotoxicity to a higher extent than other treatments. However, combined use of propranolol and doxazosin did not synergize the reno-protective effects of doxazosin. Conclusion: Dexamethasone induces nephrotoxicity, possibly, by upregulating the Wnt/β-arrestin2/β-catenin pathway. Blocking either α1ARs or βARs can effectively protect against the dexamethasone-induced nephrotoxicity. However, combined blocking of α1ARs and βARs does not synergize the reno-protective effects.
