Abstract
Ischemia remains the leading cause of acute renal failure in adults [1, 2]. To fully understand acute renal failure and devise optimal treatment regimens, it is necessary to have knowledge of the mechanisms of cellular injury and their effects on organ function. Therefore, the focus of this chapter will be to present the current understanding of the mechanisms of cellular injury emphasizing the structural, physiological, and biochemical changes that occur in proximal tubule cells as a result of ischemic injury. Special emphasis will be given to the mechanism of actin alterations during ischemia. These changes play a major mechanistic role in the pathophysiology of the decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and ion transport that are the hallmarks of acute renal failure.
