Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury (RIRI) Model
Creative Bioarray boasts extensive expertise in conducting preclinical studies on acute kidney injury (AKI) through the use of rodent models. Our team has meticulously crafted a refined model for renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIRI), which stands out as a pivotal tool for the meticulous screening, rigorous testing, and comprehensive evaluation of your prospective drug candidates.
The RIRI model simulates the pathological sequence of ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), which initially involves a restriction in blood supply to the kidney, subsequently followed by the restoration of blood flow and re-oxygenation. This process, when occurring in the kidney, can lead to AKI, a clinical syndrome characterized by rapid kidney dysfunction and associated with high mortality rates. The cardinal factors that contribute to kidney damage during RIRI include oxidative stress, excessive accumulation of calcium in the cytosol, mitochondrial uncoupling, liberation of iron ions, and the activation of an inflammatory immune response. The RIRI model serves as a valuable tool for studying the mechanisms underlying AKI and evaluating potential therapeutic strategies for its prevention and treatment.

Our Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Model
- Available Animal
- Rat
- Mouse
- Modeling Method
Animals are fasted for 8-12 hours before surgery. Following anesthesia, a midline incision is made starting from the xiphoid process. The abdominal cavity is then accessed, and the kidney is mobilized and released from its attachments. The renal artery is prepared for complete occlusion using surgical bulldog clips for 45-60 minutes to implement the ischemia-reperfusion protocol.
