Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are currently available for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. SGLT2i acts by inhibiting renal SGLT2, thereby increasing glucosuria and lowering serum glucose. Recent trials are emerging supporting a role for SGLT2i irrespective of the diabetic status pointing towards that SGLT2i have other mechanisms of actions beyond blood sugar control. In this review, we will shed light on the role of this group of medications that act as SGLT2i in non-diabetics focusing on pre-clinical and clinical data highlighting the mechanism of renoprotection and effects of SGLT2i in the non-diabetic kidneys.

Abstract
Nephrotic syndrome is associated with venous and arterial thrombotic complications and is related to the imbalance between pro-thrombotic and anti-thrombotic factors. With an underlying nephrotic syndrome, arterial thromboses are infrequent, and coronary artery thromboses are much rarer. We present the case of a young male, with nephrotic syndrome, who suffered an acute anterior wall ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. He was subsequently diagnosed to have focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)-tip lesion. The patient was successfully managed with thrombolysis, steroids, anticoagulation, antiplatelets, and statins.

[PMID: 37331628 DOI: 10.1016/j.labinv.2023.100199] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2022] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is known to play a crucial role in dyslipidemia, and an increase in serum PCSK9 levels has also been reported in patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS). However, the specific effects of PCSK9 in kidney disease and the therapeutic potential of targeting PCSK9 in NS remain elusive. We thus investigated the effects of evolocumab (EVO) in mice with adriamycin (ADR)-induced NS. Male BALB/c mice were divided into the following 4 groups: Control, N = 11; EVO (monoclonal antibody for PCSK9), N = 11; ADR, N = 11; and ADR+EVO, N = 11. We also performed in vitro experiments using immortalized murine podocyte cells to validate the direct effects of PCSK9 on podocytes. EVO decreased urinary albumin levels and ameliorated podocytopathy in mice with ADR nephropathy. Further, EVO suppressed the Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome pathway in podocytes. PCSK9 expression upregulated CD36, a scavenger receptor of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL), which in turn stimulated the absorption of Ox-LDL in vitro. EVO downregulated CD36 expression in podocytes both in vitro and in vivo. Immunofluorescence staining analysis reveals that CD36 and PCSK9 colocalized in the glomerular tufts of mice with ADR nephropathy. In the patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, the CD36+ area in glomerular tufts increased compared with those diagnosed with minor glomerular abnormalities. This study revealed that EVO ameliorated mouse ADR nephropathy through the regulation of CD36 and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling. EVO treatment represents a potential therapeutic strategy for human NS.

Abstract
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are a class of novel oral anti-hyperglycemic agents which are increasingly used in clinical practice. SGLT-2 inhibitors improve glycemic control and cardiorenal outcomes, promote weight loss, and reduce blood pressure. Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that SGLT-2 inhibitors reduce proteinuria and delay progression of kidney disease in patients with albuminuria. However, whether SGLT-2 inhibitors have similar benefits in patients with nephrotic-range proteinuria has not been well established. Evidence to date has been limited to case reports, case series and secondary analyses of randomized controlled trials. This is the first comprehensive review on the effectiveness of SGLT-2 inhibitors for the treatment of patients with nephrotic-range albuminuria or proteinuria. Overall findings support a likely beneficial role of SGLT-2 inhibitors in reducing proteinuria and delaying chronic kidney disease progression in patients with nephrotic-range proteinuria.
