The mechanisms triggering renal inflammation in chronic kidney disease (CKD) are unclear. We performed a detailed analysis of the time course of innate and adaptive immunity activation in the 5/6 renal ablation (Nx) model. Munich-Wistar rats undergoing Nx were studied 15, 60 and 120 days after ablation. Hypertension, albuminuria, creatinine retention, interstitial expansion and infiltration by macrophages and T-lymphocytes were already evident 15 days after Nx. PCR-array was used to screen for altered gene expression, whereas gene and protein expressions of TLR4, CASP1, IL-1β and NLRP3 were individually assessed.  Tlr4 ,  Tlr5 ,  Lbp ,  Nlrp3 ,  Casp1 ,  Irf7  and  Il1b  were already upregulated 15 days after Nx, while activation of  Tlr2 ,  Tlr7 ,  Tlr9 ,  Nod2 ,  Tnf  and  Il6  was seen after 60 days post-ablation. The number of genes related to innate or adaptive immunity grew steadily with time. These observations indicate that parallel activation of innate and adaptive immunity antecedes glomerular injury and involves a growing number of intricate signaling pathways, helping to explain the difficulty in detaining renal injury in Nx as CKD advances, and, stressing the need for early treatment. Additionally, these findings may contribute to the search of therapeutic targets specific for advanced phases of CKD.
