Objective: Recent studies have shown that angiotensin II (Ang II) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis and progression of hypertensive kidney disease. However, the signaling mechanisms are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the role of CXCR6 in Ang II-induced renal injury and fibrosis. Approach and Results: Wild-type and CXCR6-GFP knockin mice were treated with Ang II via subcutaneous osmotic minipumps at 1500 ng/kg/min after unilateral nephrectomy for up to 4 weeks. WT and CXCR6-GFP knockin mice had virtually identical blood pressure at baseline. Ang II treatment led to an increase in blood pressure that was similar between WT and CXCR6-GFP knockin mice. CXCR6-GFP knockin mice were protected from Ang II-induced renal dysfunction, proteinuria, and fibrosis. CXCR6-GFP knockin mice accumulated fewer bone marrow-derived fibroblasts and myofibroblasts and produced less extracellular matrix protein in the kidneys following Ang II treatment. Furthermore, CXCR6-GFP knockin mice exhibited fewer F4/80+ macrophages and CD3+ T cells and expressed less proinflammatory cytokines in the kidneys after Ang II treatment. Finally, wild-type mice engrafted with CXCR6?/? bone marrow cells displayed fewer bone marrow-derived fibroblasts, macrophages, and T cells in the kidney after Ang II treatment compared with wild-type mice engrafted with CXCR6+/+ bone marrow cells. Conclusions: Our results indicate that CXCR6 plays a pivotal role in the development of Ang II-induced renal injury and fibrosis through regulation of macrophage and T cell infiltration and bone marrow-derived fibroblast accumulation.
