Abstract
Diabetes increases the risk of both cardiovascular disease and kidney disease. Notably, most of the excess cardiovascular risk in people with diabetes is in those with kidney disease. Apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3) is a key regulator of plasma triglycerides, and it has recently been suggested to play a role in both type 1 diabetes-accelerated atherosclerosis and kidney disease progression. To investigate if APOC3 plays a role in kidney disease in people with type 2 diabetes, we analyzed plasma levels of APOC3 from the Veterans Affairs Diabetes Trial. Elevated baseline APOC3 levels predicted a greater loss of renal function. To mechanistically test if APOC3 plays a role in diabetic kidney disease and associated atherosclerosis, we treated black and tan, brachyury, WT and leptin-deficient (OB; diabetic) mice, a model of type 2 diabetes, with an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) to APOC3 or a control ASO, all in the setting of human-like dyslipidemia. Silencing APOC3 prevented diabetes-augmented albuminuria, renal glomerular hypertrophy, monocyte recruitment, and macrophage accumulation, partly driven by reduced ICAM1 expression. Furthermore, reduced levels of APOC3 suppressed atherosclerosis associated with diabetes. This suggests that targeting APOC3 might benefit both diabetes-accelerated atherosclerosis and kidney disease.

Clin Rheumatol 2024; 43:1023-1035. [PMID: 38334937 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-024-06904-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Atherosclerosis is a major complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and is exacerbated by the disease itself, drug toxicity, and metabolic syndrome. Although belimumab (BEL) can ameliorate disease activity and reduce prednisolone (PSL) dose in SLE, its effect on metabolic profiles is obscure. We aimed to assess the effects of subcutaneous BEL on disease activity and metabolic profiles. METHODS A total of 106 patients with SLE who received subcutaneous BEL were included, and 76 patients who started BEL treatment at least 1 year prior were evaluated. Clinical information, including retention rate, disease activity, renal outcome, patient satisfaction, and metabolic profiles, were retrospectively analysed. RESULTS The retention rate of BEL was > 80% after 2 years, and ineffectiveness and pain were the major reasons for discontinuation of BEL treatment. Satisfaction with side effects was higher in the BEL group than that in the PSL group. Belimumab significantly improved disease activity, lupus nephritis, and PSL dosage, with a median reduction of 4 mg/day. These effects were observed in active disease and positive C1q-binding immune complex, and PSL reduction ≥ 5 mg was achievable in such cases. Patients with PSL reduction of ≥ 5 mg showed significantly lower blood low-density lipoprotein and triglyceride by 13 and 17 mg/dL, respectively, while those with PSL reduction of < 5 mg remained unaltered. CONCLUSION Subcutaneous BEL was effective in improving disease activity and proteinuria in patients with chronic disease while reducing PSL. Reduction in PSL by BEL also improved lipid status, which could synergistically reduce cardiovascular risk in SLE. Key Points • Significant reduction of disease activity, proteinuria, and prednisolone was observed in patients using subcutaneous belimumab. • Patient satisfaction was higher in terms of side effects in subcutaneous belimumab compared with prednisolone. • Reduction in prednisolone by belimumab contributed to the improvement of lipid status and would reduce the cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Objective: The association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and renal function remains controversial in observational studies. To comprehensively investigate the association between MetS and its components with CKD and renal function, a Mendelian randomization (MR) study was performed. Methods: The inverse variance weighting (IVW) of random effects was used as the main estimation method, while MR-Egger and weighted median analysis results were used for auxiliary judgments. Cochran's Q test, MR-Egger intercept test, leave-one-out analysis, and funnel plots were used to assess heterogeneity and pleiotropy. Results: The MR analyses of genetically predicted MetS and its components' association with CKD risk and renal function showed the following causal associations: hypertension with CKD risk; MetS and obesity with increased blood urea nitrogen and decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C; hypertension and diabetes with increased urine albumin-creatinine ratio and increased risk of microalbuminuria; and CKD with increased triglyceride. Conclusion: Based on genetic data, this study demonstrated an association between hypertension and CKD risk and a causal association between other MetS components and renal function. The early diagnosis and prevention of MetS and its components might be essential for CKD management.

Abstract
Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a sensor of cellular energy changes and controls food intake. This study investigates the effect of a high-calorie diet (high fat diet [HFD], high carbohydrate diet [HCD] and high energy diet [HED]) on appetite and central AMPK in blunt snout bream. In the present study, fish (average initial weight 45.84 ± 0.07 g) were fed the control, HFD, HCD and HED in four replicates for 12 weeks. At the end of the feeding trial, the result showed that body mass index, specific growth rate, feed efficiency ratio and feed intake were not affected (p > 0.05) by dietary treatment. However, fish fed the HFD obtained a significantly higher (p < 0.05) lipid productive value, lipid gain and lipid intake than those fed the control diet, but no significant difference was attributed to others. Also, a significantly higher (p < 0.05) energy intake content was found in fish-fed HFD, HCD and HED than those given the control diet. Long-term HFD and HCD feeding significantly increased (p < 0.05) plasma glucose, glycated serum protein, advanced glycation end product, insulin and leptin content levels than the control group. Moreover, a significantly lower (p < 0.05) complex 1, 2 and 3 content was found in fish-fed HFD and HCD than in the control, but no differences (p > 0.05) were attributed to those in HED. Fish-fed HED significantly upregulated (p < 0.05) hypothalamic ampα 1 and ampα 2 expression, whereas the opposite trend was observed in the hypothalamic mammalian target of rapamycin than those in HFD and HCD compared to the control. However, hypothalamic neuropeptide y, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (pparα), acetyl-coa oxidase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 were significantly upregulated (p < 0.05) in the HCD group, while the opposite was seen in cholecystokinin expression compared to those in the control group. Our findings indicated that the central AMPK signal pathway and appetite were modulated according to the diet's energy level to regulate nutritional status and maintain energy homoeostasis in fish.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) during Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) treatment remains a concern, and few patients experience partial recovery of eGFR. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for eGFR recovery in patients with and without hypertriglyceridemia. METHODS A total of 203 patients with chronic HBV infection were prospectively recruited and followed up for three years. Data were collected at baseline, first, second, and third years during TDF treatment. RESULTS Most patients achieved normal ALT (80.0% vs. 82.5%) and undetectable HBV DNA (95.0% vs. 95.6%) in both groups (p > 0.05). For patients with hypertriglyceridemia, eGFR and cholesterol did not change significantly during the 3-year follow-up, while triglyceride (TG) decreased significantly in the first year and persisted at a lower level in the subsequent two years. For patients without hypertriglyceridemia, eGFR declined significantly in the first year of treatment, then gradually recovered during the subsequent two years, and eGFR was negatively correlated with TG at the four time points. Fifteen (15/183, 8.2%) patients without hypertriglyceridemia experienced eGFR partial recovery in the third year. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that baseline eGFR <90 mL/(min·1.73 m2) (p < 0.01; 95% CI: 0.019-0.284) and age (p < 0.01; 95% CI: 0.817-0.960) were independent risk factors for eGFR recovery. CONCLUSION eGFR partially recovered in patients without hypertriglyceridemia during TDF treatment, and TG regulation might be a useful strategy to hinder renal function decline, although larger, confirmatory studies are necessary to validate our findings.Key messagesFor patients with normal triglyceride, eGFR declined significantly at the first year of TDF treatment, then gradually recovered during the subsequent two years, and eGFR was negatively correlated with TG.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem with rising incidence and prevalence. Among several pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for disease progression, lipid accumulation in the kidney parenchyma might drive inflammation and fibrosis, as has been described in fatty liver diseases. Lipids and their metabolites have several important structural and functional roles, as they are constituents of cell and organelle membranes, serve as signalling molecules and are used for energy production. However, although lipids can be stored in lipid droplets to maintain lipid homeostasis, lipid accumulation can become pathogenic. Understanding the mechanisms linking kidney parenchymal lipid accumulation to CKD of metabolic or non-metabolic origin is challenging, owing to the tremendous variety of lipid species and their functional diversity across different parenchymal cells. Nonetheless, multiple research reports have begun to emphasize the effect of dysregulated kidney lipid metabolism in CKD progression. For example, altered cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism contribute to glomerular and tubular cell injury. Newly developed lipid-targeting agents are being tested in clinical trials in CKD, raising expectations for further therapeutic development in this field.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a leading cause of death worldwide and has a high cost of treatment. Studies have indicated that a combination of waist circumference (WC) and triglyceride (TG) levels can be used to determine the risk of CKD. This study analyzes the risk of CKD using four phenotype models based on WC and TG. Methods This meta-analysis analyzes 113,019 participants from 13 studies. We conducted relevant literature searches in the Europe PMC, Medline, and Scopus databases using specific keywords. The results obtained were pooled into odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using random-effects models. Results Our pooled analysis revealed that the highest significant independent association was between CKD and the high WC-high TG phenotype (adjusted OR, 1.61; 95% CI, 1.39 to 1.88; P<0.00001; I2=59%), followed by the high WC-normal TG phenotype (adjusted OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.12 to 1.57; P=0.001; I2=67%), and the normal WC-high TG phenotype (adjusted OR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.37; P=0.005; I2=29%) when the normal WC-normal TG phenotype was taken as the reference. Conclusion Our study suggests that phenotype models based on WC and TG can be used as screening tools to predict the risk of CKD. Our results also indicate that WC plays a larger role than TG in the CKD risk. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm the results of our study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies have reported inconsistent findings in the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS), its components, and loss of renal function, mainly including eGFR decline, new-onset CKD, and ESRD. This meta-analysis was performed to investigate their potential associations. METHODS PubMed and EMBASE were systematically searched from their inception to 21 July 2022. Observational cohort studies in English assessing the risk of renal dysfunction in individuals with MetS were identified. Risk estimates and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted and pooled using the random-effects approach. RESULTS A total of 32 studies with 413,621 participants were included in the meta-analysis. MetS contributed to higher risks of renal dysfunction (RR = 1.50, 95% CI = 1.39-1.61) and, specifically, rapid decline in eGFR (RR 1.31, 95% CI 1.13-1.51), new-onset CKD (RR 1.47, 95% CI 1.37-1.58), as well as ESRD (RR 1.55, 95% CI 1.08-2.22). Moreover, all individual components of MetS were significantly associated with renal dysfunction, while elevated BP conveyed the highest risk (RR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.29-1.46), impaired fasting glucose with the lowest and diabetic-dependent risk (RR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.09-1.33). CONCLUSIONS Individuals with MetS and its components are at higher risk of renal dysfunction.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity has increased dramatically during the past decades, which has been a major health problem. Since 1975, the number of people with obesity worldwide has nearly tripled. An increasing number of studies find obesity as a driver of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, and the mechanisms are complex and include hemodynamic changes, inflammation, oxidative stress, and activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Obesity-related kidney disease is characterized by glomerulomegaly, which is often accompanied by localized and segmental glomerulosclerosis lesions. In these patients, the early symptoms are atypical, with microproteinuria being the main clinical manifestation and nephrotic syndrome being rare. Weight loss and RAAS blockers have a protective effect on obesity-related CKD, but even so, a significant proportion of patients eventually progress to end-stage renal disease despite treatment. Thus, it is critical to comprehend the mechanisms underlying obesity-related CKD to create new tactics for slowing or stopping disease progression. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on the mechanisms of obesity-related kidney disease, its pathological changes, and future perspectives on its treatment.
