Conséquences vasculaires et rénales à long terme de la restriction de croissance intra-utérine et de la nutrition postnatale chez le rat / Long term vascular and renal consequences of the intra-uterine growth restriction and postnatal nutrition in the ratBoubred, Farid 24 November 2010 (has links)
Le faible poids de naissance et/ou une accélération de la croissance pondérale durant l’enfance sont reconnus actuellement comme facteur de risque de maladies cardiovasculaires (hypertension artérielle, en particulier). Leur rôle dans la progression des maladies rénales chroniques de l’adulte est moins évident. Cette association entre un faible poids de naissance et un risque accru d’hypertension artérielle (HTA) à l’âge adulte ferait intervenir une réduction du nombre de néphrons. Ce déficit néphronique, associé au faible poids de naissance, est responsable d’une hyperfiltration glomérulaire au sein de chaque néphron. Ce mécanisme adaptatif entraîne au fil du temps des lésions rénales, une protéinurie, une insuffisance rénale chronique et une véritable hypertension artérielle. Mais l’hypothèse pathogénique du déficit néphronique reste discutable. De plus peu l’influence de la nutrition postnatale précoce a été très peu étudiée chez l’animal. A travers 2 modèles de restriction de croissance intra-utérine (RCIU) chez le rat, nous avons montré que, plus que la RCIU elle-même, le devenir vasculaire et rénal chez le rat RCIU dépend de la sévérité du déficit néphronique. Un déficit néphronique modéré n’est pas suffisant pour affecter à long terme les fonctions/structures vasculaires et rénales chez le rat RCIU obtenu par une restriction protéique maternelle modérée (caséine 9 %)Nous avons également validé un modèle de rattrapage pondéral précoce, chez le rat. Nous avons montré qu’un rattrapage pondéral et/ou une croissance exagérée durant la période néonatale jouent un rôle primordial sur la pression artérielle, les fonctions et la structure rénale à l’âge adulte. Ces paramètres étaient d’autant plus affectés que la suralimentation néonatale était associé à une RCIU. Les maladies vasculaires et rénales résulteraient, en grande partie, d’une inadéquation entre le nombre de néphrons, réduit lors d’un faible poids de naissance, et la nutrition néonatale/postnatale, surabondante.Chez l’homme, la mise en place de nouvelles cohortes est nécessaire afin de mieux comprendre le rôle de la nutrition durant différentes phases de croissance (fœtale, néonatale, enfance et adolescence) dans le développement des maladies chroniques de l’adulte. Ces études devraient évaluer la pertinence de marqueurs précoces, et permettre la mise en œuvre de stratégies préventives précoces nutritionnelles ou médicamenteuses chez les personnes les plus à risques. / Evidence suggest that low birth weight and/or postnatal catch-up growth increase the risk for long term cardiovascular diseases (hypertension especially). Their role on the progression of chronic kidney disease is less evident. The mechanism is incompletely known. Nephron number deficit, associated with low birth weight, may play an important role. In such a condition, an adaptative single nephron glomerular hyperfiltration to meet excretory demands may lead overtime to renal damages. However this hypothesis is still questionable.In the rat, through two experimental models of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), we have shown that adverse long term vascular and renal functions are highly dependent on the severity of nephron number deficit. Moreover, we have demonstrated that a rapid neonatal catch-up growth plays a determinant role. Neonatal overfeeding and a high protein diet following IUGR accelerate the expression of hypertension and the progression of chronic kidney disease. Long term vascular and renal diseases may thus result from a mismatch between adverse fetal environment and postnatal beneficial environment. In human prospective epidemiological studies are needed with the aim to evaluate the effect of postnatal nutrition and to determine early markers for future preventive studies.

BIRTHWEIGHT AND SUSCEPTIBILITY TO CHRONIC DISEASEIssa Al Salmi Unknown Date (has links)
The thesis examines the relationship of birthweight to risk factors and markers, such as proteinuria and glomerular filtration rate, for chronic disease in postnatal life. 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.
