Nutrición temprana: efecto de la ingesta de proteína durante los primeros meses de vida sobre el tamaño y función renales

Luque Moreno, Verónica 29 April 2010 (has links)
Antecedentes: aunque por estudios en animales se conoce que el incremento de la ingesta proteica favorece el crecimiento renal y que el Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF-1) puede ser el mediador de este proceso, no existen ensayos clínicos controlados en humanos que aporten evidencia científica a estas teorías. Metodología: este ensayo multicéntrico Europeo (EU Childhood Obesity Project) examinó a los 6 meses de vida a 601 lactantes sanos asignados aleatoriamente durante las 8 primeras semanas de vida (mediana=14 días) a consumir una fórmula infantil con mayor o menor contenido proteicos. Estos lactantes fueron comparados con un grupo alimentado con lactancia materna. Conclusiones principales: a los 6 meses, la ingesta proteica se asociaba de forma directa al tamaño renal y corporal, así como la secreción de IGF-1. IGF-1 puede ser un mediador del crecimiento corporal y renal inducido por la proteína dietética, posiblemente mediante un mecanismo hiperplásico. . / Background: Protein intake has been associated with kidney growth and function in human observational studies, and Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF-1) has been postulated as a mediator of this process. Although this mechanism has been shown by animal models, randomized control trials have not been published in healthy infants. Methods: this multicenter European clinical trial (EU Childhood Obesity Project) examined 601 healthy 6-month-old formula-fed infants randomly assigned within the first 8 weeks of life (median 14 days) to receive an infant formula with higher or lower protein content. For comparison, 204 breastfed infants were also followed. Conclusions: higher protein content of infant formula increases kidney size at 6 months of life, whereas a lower protein supply achieves a normal kidney size relative to healthy breastfed infants. Protein intake has a direct significant relation with IGF-1 secretion. IGF-1 is a mediator of body and kidney growth, induced by protein intake
