Abstract

Rapid decline of glomerular filtration rate estimated from creatinine (eGFRcrea) is associated with severe clinical endpoints. In contrast to cross-sectionally assessed eGFRcrea, the genetic basis for rapid eGFRcrea decline is largely unknown. To help define this, we meta-analyzed 42 genome-wide association studies from the Chronic Kidney Diseases Genetics Consortium and United Kingdom Biobank to identify genetic loci for rapid eGFRcrea decline. Two definitions of eGFRcrea decline were used: 3 mL/min/1.73m2/year or more ("Rapid3"; encompassing 34,874 cases, 107,090 controls) and eGFRcrea decline 25% or more and eGFRcrea under 60 mL/min/1.73m2 at follow-up among those with eGFRcrea 60 mL/min/1.73m2 or more at baseline ("CKDi25"; encompassing 19,901 cases, 175,244 controls). Seven independent variants were identified across six loci for Rapid3 and/or CKDi25: consisting of five variants at four loci with genome-wide significance (near UMOD-PDILT (2), PRKAG2, WDR72, OR2S2) and two variants among 265 known eGFRcrea variants (near GATM, LARP4B). All these loci were novel for Rapid3 and/or CKDi25 and our bioinformatic follow-up prioritized variants and genes underneath these loci. The OR2S2 locus is novel for any eGFRcrea trait including interesting candidates. For the five genome-wide significant lead variants, we found supporting effects for annual change in blood urea nitrogen or cystatin-based eGFR, but not for GATM or LARP4B. Individuals at high compared to those at low genetic risk (8-14 vs. 0-5 adverse alleles) had a 1.20-fold increased risk of acute kidney injury (95% confidence interval 1.08-1.33). Thus, our identified loci for rapid kidney function decline may help prioritize therapeutic targets and identify mechanisms and individuals at risk for sustained deterioration of kidney function.

Abstract

Increased levels of the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) are associated with higher risk of kidney disease progression and cardiovascular events, but underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Here, we conduct trans-ethnic (n = 564,257) and European-ancestry specific meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies of UACR, including ancestry- and diabetes-specific analyses, and identify 68 UACR-associated loci. Genetic correlation analyses and risk score associations in an independent electronic medical records database (n = 192,868) reveal connections with proteinuria, hyperlipidemia, gout, and hypertension. Fine-mapping and trans-Omics analyses with gene expression in 47 tissues and plasma protein levels implicate genes potentially operating through differential expression in kidney (including TGFB1, MUC1, PRKCI, and OAF), and allow coupling of UACR associations to altered plasma OAF concentrations. Knockdown of OAF and PRKCI orthologs in Drosophila nephrocytes reduces albumin endocytosis. Silencing fly PRKCI further impairs slit diaphragm formation. These results generate a priority list of genes and pathways for translational research to reduce albuminuria.

Abstract

Introduction: Soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators and activators are known to enhance kidney function in various models of chronic kidney disease (CKD) by increasing cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). Their differential effects on CKD progression, particularly under conditions of oxidative stress, remain unexplored by direct comparative studies. Methods: We conducted a side-by-side comparison using 5/6 nephrectomized rats on a high salt diet (5/6Nx+HSD) to evaluate the efficacy of the sGC stimulator BAY 41-8543 and the sGC activator BAY 60-2770 in CKD progression. BAY 41-8543 (1 mg/kg; twice daily) and BAY 60-2770 (1 mg/kg; once daily) were administered by gavage for 11 weeks. Results: The 5/6Nx+HSD model led to increased plasma creatinine, proteinuria, and blood pressure. Both BAY 41-8543 and BAY 60-2770 significantly reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure to a similar extent but did not improve renal function parameters. Notably, BAY 60-2770 reduced renal fibrosis, including interstitial fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis, whereas BAY 41-8543 did not. These antifibrotic effects of BAY 60-2770 were independent of blood pressure reduction. Proteomic analysis revealed that BAY 60-2770 corrected the upregulation of 9 proteins associated with apoptosis and fibrosis, including Caspase-3, MKK6 (Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Kinase 6), Prdx5 (Peroxiredoxin-5), in the 5/6Nx+HSD group. Discussion: In contrast, BAY 41-8543 had no significant impact on these proteins. sGC activators were more effective than sGC stimulators in reducing renal fibrosis in 5/6 nephrectomized rats on a high salt diet, and this effect was due to modulation of apoptosis-associated proteins beyond the control of blood pressure.

Results: We identified an optimal E2/follicle (E2/F) ratio threshold of 246.03 pg/ml on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration. Women with an E2/F ratio exceeding this threshold had significantly lower rates of GDM (12.75% vs. 20.41%, P < 0.001) and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) (11.75% vs. 15.48%, P = 0.03). Additional E2 parameters were also evaluated: baseline E2, E2 on hCG day, E2 increase, and E2 fold change. Lower GDM rates were observed in women with baseline E2 above 31.50 pg/ml (13.51% vs. 19.42%, P <0.01), E2 on hCG day above 3794.50 pg/ml (12.26% vs. 19.32%, P < 0.001), and E2 increase above 3771.50 pg/ml (12.24% vs. 19.28%, P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in OHSS rates for these additional E2 parameters. After adjusting for confounders, lower E2/F ratio (OR: 1.626, 95% CI: 1.229-2.150, P <0.01), E2 on hCG day (OR: 1.511, 95% CI: 1.133-2.016, P = 0.01), and E2 increase (OR: 1.522, 95% CI: 1.141-2.031, P <0.01) were identified as risk factors for GDM. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that an E2/F ratio over 246.03 pg/ml is significantly associated with a reduced risk of both GDM and OHSS in women undergoing fresh embryo transfer, highlighting the E2/F ratio as a superior predictive biomarker compared to other E2-related parameters.

Abstract

Target values for 25-hydroxy vitamin D and 1,25(OH)2D or 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D remain a topic of debate among clinicians. We analysed data collected from December 2012 to April 2020 from two cohorts. Cohort A, comprising 455,062 subjects, was used to investigate the relationship between inflammatory indicators (white blood cell [WBC] count and C-reactive protein [CRP]) and 25(OH)D/1,25(OH)2D. Cohort B, including 47,778 subjects, was used to investigate the connection between 25(OH)D/1,25(OH)2D and mineral metabolism markers (phosphate, calcium, and intact parathyroid hormone [iPTH]). Quadratic models fit best for all tested correlations, revealing U-shaped relationships between inflammatory indicators and 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D. Minimal CRP and WBC counts were observed at 1,25(OH)2D levels of 60 pg/mL and at 25(OH)D levels of 32 ng/mL, as well as of 42 ng/mL, respectively. iPTH correlated inversely with both 1,25(OH)2D and 25(OH)D, while phosphate as well as calcium levels positively correlated with both vitamin D forms. Calcium-phosphate product increased sharply when 25(OH)D was more than 50 ng/mL, indicating a possible risk for vascular calcification. Multiple regression analyses confirmed that these correlations were independent of confounders. This study suggests target values for 25(OH)D between 30–50 ng/mL and for 1,25(OH)2D between 50–70 pg/mL, based particularly on their associations with inflammation but also with mineral metabolism markers. These findings contribute to the ongoing discussion around ideal levels of vitamin D but require support from independent studies with data on clinical endpoints. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

42. Donor Conditioning and Organ Pre-Treatment Prior to Kidney Transplantation: Reappraisal of the Available Clinical Evidence.

Abstract

Therapeutic measures aimed at optimising organ function prior to transplantation—whether by conditioning the donor after determination of brain death or by improving organ preservation after kidney removal—have the potential to enhance outcomes after transplantation. The particular advantage is that, unlike any optimised immunosuppressive therapy, a favourable effect can be achieved without side effects for the organ recipient. In recent years, several such measures have been tested in controlled clinical trials on large patient cohorts following kidney transplantation. Hypothermic pulsatile machine perfusion, in particular, has become the focus of interest, but interventions in the donor prior to organ removal, such as the administration of low-dose dopamine until the start of cold perfusion as an example of conditioning antioxidant therapy and therapeutic donor hypothermia in the intensive care unit after brain death confirmation, have also significantly reduced the frequency of dialysis after transplantation with far less effort and cost. With regard to benefits for graft survival, the database for all procedures is less clear and controversial. The aim of this review article is to re-evaluate the available clinical evidence from large multicentre controlled trials, which have also significantly influenced later meta-analyses, and to assess the significance for use in routine clinical practice.

Abstract

Reduced glomerular filtration rate defines chronic kidney disease and is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. We conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), combining data across 133,413 individuals with replication in up to 42,166 individuals. We identify 24 new and confirm 29 previously identified loci. Of these 53 loci, 19 associate with eGFR among individuals with diabetes. Using bioinformatics, we show that identified genes at eGFR loci are enriched for expression in kidney tissues and in pathways relevant for kidney development and transmembrane transporter activity, kidney structure, and regulation of glucose metabolism. Chromatin state mapping and DNase I hypersensitivity analyses across adult tissues demonstrate preferential mapping of associated variants to regulatory regions in kidney but not extra-renal tissues. These findings suggest that genetic determinants of eGFR are mediated largely through direct effects within the kidney and highlight important cell types and biological pathways.
