PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 126:155450. [PMID: 38368794 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Shen Shuai Ⅱ Recipe (SSR) is clinically used to treat chronic kidney diseases (CKDs) with remarkable efficacy and safety. In earlier research, we found the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and mitochondrial protective properties of SSR in hypoxic kidney injury model, which is closely related to its renal protection. Further work is needed to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms. PURPOSE Further investigation of the mechanisms of action of SSR against renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) building on previous research leads. METHODS Rats receiving CKD model surgery were given with Fenofibrate or SSR once a day for eight weeks. In vitro, the NRK-52E cells were treated with SSR in the presence or absence of 10 μM Sc75741, 0.5 μM PMA, or 1 μM fenofibrate under 1% O2. The effects of SSR on NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammatory cascade, secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, fatty acid oxidation (FAO), and renal tubular injury were determined by immunoblotting, luminex liquid suspension chip assay, transmission electron microscopy, and Oil red O staining. Next, we delivered PPARα-interfering sequences to kidney tissue and NRK-52E cells by adeno-associated virus (AAV) injection and siRNA transfection methods. Finally, we evaluated the effect of renal tubular cells on fibroblast activation by co-culture method. RESULTS SSR attenuated the release of IL-18, VEGF, and MCP1 cytokines, inhibited the activation of NF-κB/NLRP3 cascade, increased the PPARα, CPT-1α, CPT-2, ACADL, and MCAD protein expression, and improved the lipid accumulation. Further studies have demonstrated that one of the ways in which SSR suppresses the inflammatory response to protect renal tubular cells is through the restoration of PPARα-mediated FAO. In addition, by means of co-culture ways, the results demonstrated that SSR attenuated secretion of inflammatory mediators in NRK-52E cells by PPARα/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway, thereby inhibiting renal fibroblast activation. CONCLUSION SSR inhibits RIF by suppressing inflammatory response of hypoxia-exposed RTECs through PPARα-mediated FAO.

Abstract
Renal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) is the main pathological basis for the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), however, effective interventions are limited. Here, we investigated the effect of Icariside II (ICA-II) on RIF and explored the underlying mechanisms. Rats receiving 5/6 ablation and infarction (A/I) surgery were gavaged with ICA-II (5 or 10 mg/kg) for 8 weeks. In vitro, TGF-β1-stimulated NRK-52E cells were treated with ICA-II and (or) oleic acid, etomoxir, ranolazine, fenofibrate, and GW6471. The effects of ICA-II on RIF, fatty acid oxidation, lipid deposition, and mitochondrial function were determined by immunoblotting, Oil red O staining, colorimetric, and fluorometric assays. Using adeno-associated virus injection and co-culture methods, we further determined mechanisms of ICA-II anti-RIF. ICA-II ameliorated the fibrotic responses in vivo and in vitro. RNA-seq analysis indicated that ICA-II regulated fatty acid degradation and PPAR pathway in 5/6 (A/I) kidneys. ICA-II attenuated lipid accumulation and up-regulated expression of PPARα, CPT-1α, Acaa2, and Acadsb proteins in vivo and in vitro. Compared to ICA-II treatment, ICA-II combined with Etomoxir exacerbated mitochondrial dysfunction and fibrotic responses in TGF-β-treated NRK-52E cells. Importantly, we determined that ICA-II improved lipid metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, mitochondrial function, and RIF by restoring PPARα. Co-culture revealed that ICA-II decreased the expression of Fibronectin, Collagen-I, α-SMA, and PCNA proteins in NRK-49F cells by restoring PPARα of renal tubular cells. ICA-II may serve as a promising therapeutic agent for RIF in 5/6 (A/I) rats, which may be important for the prevention and treatment of CKD.

Digital Health Interventions for Quality Improvements in Chronic Kidney Disease Primary Care: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. J Clin Med 2024; 13:364. [PMID: 38256498 PMCID: PMC10816029 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13020364] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant public health issue globally. The importance of its timely identification and early intervention is paramount. However, a systematic approach for early CKD management in the primary care setting is currently lacking, receiving less attention compared to upstream risk factors such as diabetes and hypertension. This oversight may lead to a failure in meeting quality-of-care indicators. Digital health interventions (DHIs), which leverage digital tools to enhance healthcare delivery, have shown effectiveness in managing chronic diseases and improving the quality, safety, and efficiency of primary care. Our research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of DHIs in the care process, focusing on their reach, uptake, and feasibility. METHODS In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing DHIs' effectiveness in CKD patient care among adults in primary care settings. The search, conducted on 30 June 2023, included studies published in English from 1 January 2009. Screening was conducted using Covidence, adhering to Cochrane's guidelines for data extraction. We primarily evaluated changes in care processes (testing, documentation, medication use, etc.) and the use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi), referrals, among others. Multilevel meta-analysis was employed to address within-study clustering, and meta-regression analyzed the impact of study characteristics on heterogeneity in effect sizes. Clinical endpoints were recorded where available. Bias risk was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool. Data on reach, uptake, and feasibility were narratively summarized. The study is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42023449098). RESULTS From 679 records, 12 RCTs were included in the narrative synthesis, and 6 studies (encompassing 7 trials) in the meta-analysis. The trials indicated a -0.85% change (95%CI, -5.82% to 4.11%) in the proportion of patients receiving desired care. This result showed considerable heterogeneity (I2 = 91.9%). One study characteristic (co-intervention, education) correlated with larger effects. Although including co-intervention in multivariable meta-regression was significant, it did not diminish heterogeneity. The reported reach varied and was not high, while the uptake was relatively high. Most studies did not explicitly address feasibility, though some statements implied its evaluation. CONCLUSIONS The current literature on the impact of DHIs in community-based CKD care is limited. The studies suggest a non-significant effect of DHIs on enhancing CKD management in community settings, marked by significant heterogeneity. Future research should focus on rigorous, methodologically sound implementations to better assess the effectiveness of DHIs in the primary care management of CKD.

Abstract
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a public health problem that presents genetic and environmental risk factors. Two alleles in the Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene were associated with chronic kidney disease; these alleles are common in individuals of African ancestry but rare in European descendants. Genomic studies on Afro-Americans have indicated a higher prevalence and severity of chronic kidney disease in people of African ancestry when compared to other ethnic groups. However, estimates in low- and middle-income countries are still limited. Precision medicine approaches could improve clinical outcomes in carriers of risk alleles in the Apolipoprotein L1 gene through early diagnosis and specific therapies. Nevertheless, to enhance the definition of studies on these variants, it would be necessary to include individuals with different ancestry profiles in the sample, such as Latinos, African Americans, and Indigenous peoples. There is evidence that measuring genetic ancestry improves clinical care for admixed people. For chronic kidney disease, this knowledge could help establish public health strategies for monitoring patients and understanding the impact of the Apolipoprotein L1 genetic variants in admixed populations. Therefore, researchers need to develop resources, methodologies, and incentives for vulnerable and disadvantaged communities, to develop and implement precision medicine strategies and contribute to consolidating diversity in science and precision medicine in clinical practice.
