1	Glomerular Hyperfiltration and Hypertension in Diabetes Zhang, Jie 17 November 2017 (has links) In the present study, we investigated the pathophysiological mechanisms of the hemodynamic alteration in diabetes. Glomerular hyperfiltration occurs in the early stage of diabetes mellitus and has been recognized to promote the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. We determine the role of TGF response and the vascular tone of Af-Art in diabetic hyperfiltration and we found that 1) tubular high glucose directly activates NOS1 and increases NO generation in the macula densa, which inhibits TGF response and increases GFR; 2) high glucose dilates renal Af-Art through GLUT1 and mediated by NOS3-derived NO generation; 3) in diabetes, blunted TGF mediated by NOS1 in the macula densa promotes glomerular hyperfiltration. The prevalence of hypertension is much higher in diabetic subjects than non-diabetic population. We studied the potential mechanisms of blood pressure regulation in diabetes, including TGF response and renal afferent arteriolar response to vasoconstrictors, and we found that 1) inadequate NOS1 in the macula densa enhances TGF, which restricts glomerular hyperfiltration and induces hypertension in diabetes; 2) hemodynamic responses to ANG II is increased in diabetes, which is associated with increased expression and activity of AT1 receptors in the Af-Art; 3) Ang II upregulates the expression and activity of Nox2 and Nox4 in the macula densa, which enhances TGF response.

Nous avons mesuré la clairance du iohexol chez 20 patients en insuffisance circulatoire aiguë (injection de 5 mL de iohexol et cinétique riche sur 24h). Les clairances urinaire et plasmatique étaient équivalentes ; la clairance plasmatique n’était pas influencée par le remplissage. Nous avons étudié la distribution de la clairance du iohexol chez 85 patients en insuffisance circulatoire aiguë. Quarante-et-un patients (48%) avaient un DFG < 30 mL.min-1, 29 (34%) entre 30 et 60mL.min-1, 10 (12%) entre 60 et 90mL.min-1, 4 (5%) entre 90 et 130 mL.min-1 et 1 (1%) > 130 mL.min-1. Nous avons mesuré les biomarqueurs lésionnels [TIMP-2].[IGFBP-7] juste avant, 6h et 24 h après un scanner injecté en réanimation; il n’y a pas eu d’augmentation significative des biomarqueurs, confortant l’hypothèse d’une toxicité négligeable des produits de contraste iodés en réanimation. En conclusion, le iohexol peut être considéré comme un gold standard pour l’estimation du DFG chez des patients en insuffisance circulatoire aiguë en termes de faisabilité, fiabilité et sécurité. / There is no gold standard for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation in intensive care unit. We measured iohexol clearance in 20 patients experiencing acute circulatory failure (5 mL iohexol bolus, urine and blood-sample collections over 24h). Urinary and plasma clearances were equivalent; rapid fluid infusion did not influence plasma clearance. We studied iohexol clearance repartition in 85 patients experiencing acute circulatory failure. Forty-one (48%) had a GFR < 30 mL.min-1, 29 (34%) between 30 and 60mL.min-1, 10 (12%) between 60 and 90mL.min-1, 4 (5%) between 90 and 130 mL.min-1 and 1 (1%) > 130 mL.min-1. We measured lesion biomarkers [TIMP-2].[IGFBP-7], before, 6h and 24h after an injected computed tomography scan; there was no significant raise in the biomarkers. This result supports the hypothesis that contrast media are armless in intensive care units. To conclude, iohexol can be considered as a gold standard for GFR estimation in acute-circulatory-failure patients regarding feasibility, reliability and safety.

3	The Role of Ubiquitin C-Terminal Hydrolase L1 in Renal Function and Glomerular Disease Boisvert, Naomi January 2017 (has links) Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 is a deubiquitinating enzyme that salvages ubiquitin from substrates and maintains intracellular ubiquitin pools. While the role of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 is well characterized in neurons, there is an increasing scope of evidence to suggest that ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 also plays a role in renal function and glomerular disease, however, its specific role in these settings remains incompletely elucidated. In the present thesis we explored the role of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 in a mouse model of glomerular disease, ACTN4-associated focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and the role of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 in renal function. Deletion of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 in a mouse model of ACTN4-associated focal segmental glomerulosclerosis significantly improved indices of podocyte injury, a likely result of ubiquitin pool attenuation and sustained α-actinin-4 levels. However, global ablation of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 in mice led to altered renal hemodynamics, namely glomerular hyperfiltration, most likely attributed to nerve dysfunction and loss of arterial resistance. Finally, mice lacking ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 exhibited perturbations in phosphate homeostasis as these showed evidence of hyperphosphatemia and phosphaturia, indicating altered renal phosphate balance. Altogether, these data show that while ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 plays a maladaptive role in glomerular disease, it also functions as a crucial regulator of renal hemodynamics and renal phosphate handling, suggesting that it may have distinct functions in diseased and non-diseased kidneys.

It made use of the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle Study (AusDiab). The AusDiab study is a cross sectional study where baseline data on 11,247 participants were collected in 1999-2000. Participants were recruited from a stratified sample of Australians aged ≥ 25 years, residing in 42 randomly selected urban and non-urban areas (Census Collector Districts) of the six states of Australia and the Northern Territory. The AusDiab study collected an enormous amount of clinical and laboratory data. During the 2004-05 follow-up AusDiab survey, questions about birthweight were included. Participants were asked to state their birthweight, the likely accuracy of the stated birthweight and the source of their stated birthweight. Four hundred and twelve chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients were approached, and 339 agreed to participate in the study. The patients completed the same questionnaire. Medical records were reviewed to check the diagnoses, causes of kidney trouble and SCr levels. Two control subjects, matched for gender and age, were selected for each CKD patient from participants in the AusDiab study who reported their birthweight. Among 7,157 AusDiab participants who responded to the questionnaire, 4,502 reported their birthweights, with a mean (standard deviation) of 3.4 (0.7) kg. The benefit and disadvantages of these data are discussed in chapter three. The data were analysed for the relationship between birthweight and adult body size and composition, disorders of glucose regulation, blood pressure, lipid abnormalities, cardiovascular diseases and glomerular filtration rate. Low birthweight was associated with smaller body build and lower lean mass and total body water in both females and males. In addition low birthweight was associated with central obesity and higher body fat percentage in females, even after taking into account current physical activity and socioeconomic status. Fasting plasma glucose, post load glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin were strongly and inversely correlated with birthweight. In those with low birthweight (< 2.5 kg), the risks for having impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes and all abnormalities combined were increased by 1.75, 2.22, 2.76 and 2.28 for females and by 1.40, 1.32, 1.98 and 1.49 for males compared to those with normal birthweight (≥ 2.5 kg), respectively. Low birthweight individuals were at higher risk for having high blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg and ≥ 130/85 mmHg compared to those with normal birthweight. People with low birthweight showed a trend towards increased risk for high cholesterol (≥ 5.5 mmol/l) compared to those of normal birthweight. Females with low birthweight had increased risk for high low density lipoprotein cholesterol (≥ 3.5 mmol/l) and triglyceride levels (≥ 1.7 mmol/l) when compared to those with normal birthweight. Males with low birthweight exhibited increased risk for low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (<0.9 mmol/l) than those with normal birthweight. Females with low birthweight were at least 1.39, 1.40, 2.30 and 1.47 times more likely to have angina, coronary artery disease, stroke and overall cardiovascular diseases respectively, compared to those ≥ 2.5 kg. Similarly, males with low birthweight were 1.76, 1.48, 3.34 and 1.70 times more likely to have angina, coronary artery disease, stroke and overall cardiovascular diseases compared to those ≥ 2.5 kg, respectively. The estimated glomerular filtration rate was strongly and positively associated with birthweight, with a predicted increase of 2.6 ml/min (CI 2.1, 3.2) and 3.8 (3.0, 4.5) for each kg of birthweight for females and males, respectively. The odd ratio (95% confidence interval) for low glomerular filtration rate (<61.0 ml/min for female and < 87.4 male) in people of low birthweight compared with those of normal birthweight was 2.04 (1.45, 2.88) for female and 3.4 (2.11, 5.36) for male. One hundred and eighty-nineCKD patients reported their birthweight; 106 were male. Their age was 60.3(15) years. Their birthweight was 3.27 (0.62) kg, vs 3.46 (0.6) kg for their AusDiab controls, p<0.001 and the proportions with birthweight<2.5 kg were 12.17% and 4.44%, p<0.001. Among CKD patients, 22.8%, 21.7%, 18% and 37.6% were in CKD stages 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Birthweights by CKD stage and their AusDiab controls were as follows: 3.38 (0.52) vs 3.49 (0.52), p=0.251 for CKD2; 3.28 (0.54) vs 3.44 (0.54), p=0.121 for CKD3; 3.19 (0.72) vs 3.43 (0.56), p= 0.112 for CKD4 and 3.09 (0.65) vs 3.47 (0.67), p<0.001 for CKD5. The results demonstrate that in an affluent Western country with a good adult health profile, low birthweight people were predisposed to higher rates of glycaemic dysregulation, high blood pressure, dyslipidaemia, cardiovascular diseases and lower glomerular filtration rate in adult life. In all instances it would be prudent to adopt policies of intensified whole of life surveillance of lower birthweight people, anticipating this risk. The general public awareness of the effect of low birthweight on development of chronic diseases in later life is of vital importance. The general public, in addition to the awareness of people in medical practice of the role of low birthweight, will lead to a better management of this group of our population that is increasingly surviving into adulthood. birth weight birthweight birth weight and renal volume BIRTH WEIGHT QUESTIONNAIRE chronic disease Barker Hypothesis Foetal development DOHaD gestational age Anthropometric Characteristics body composition Height weight body mass index Waist Circumference hip circumference Waist-hip Ratio obesity Central Obesity Fatness Lean Body Mass Lean Mass Fat Mass body fat mass Body Fat Percentage body fatness Body Surface Area diabetes Fasting Glucose fasting insulin level glucose tolerance Impaired Fasting Glucose Impaired Glucose Tolerance Glycosylated Hemoglobin HbA1c IFG glucose control glycaemic control Metabolic Syndrome Syndrome X blood pressure Systolic Blood-pressure Diastolic Blood-pressure Systolic Hypertension high blood pressure Hypertension Dyslipidaemia Dyslipidemia Total Cholesterol Triglyceride Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ldl Cholesterol High Density Lipoprotein Hdl Cholesterol Fibrinogen angina Angina-pectoris Stroke coronary artery disease cardiovascular disease Framingham Framingham Heart Study Framingham Score coronary heart disease Glomerular Filtration glomerular filtration rate Glomerular Hyperfiltration Glomerular Injury Glomerular Number Nephrogenesis Nephron Endowment Nephron Number NKF-K/DQQI Classification Chronic Kidney Disease (ckd) Chronic Kidney Failure Kidney Failure CKD STAGES end-stage renal disease (ESRD) end-stage renal failure Cockcroft-gault MDRD formula Serum Creatinine Urinary Creatinine albuminuria Albuminuria:creatinine Ratio Kidney Development Kidney dysfunction low birth weight low birth weight Pre-term Birth AusDiab Study case control longitudinal observational study
