Abstract
BACKGROUND The early impact of type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1), increased blood pressure and glomerular hyperfiltration (GHF) on kidney damage in adolescents using two urinary markers of kidney injury - neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) and transferrin (uTransf) - was assessed. METHODS The study group consisted of 80 adolescents with DM1, of whom 42 were patients with increased blood pressure (IBP), and 38 were patients with normal blood pressure (NBP). Blood pressure was assessed by 24-hour ambulatory blood-pressure monitoring. All patients showed estimated glomerular-filtration rates (eGFRs) above 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. The control group consisted of 19 healthy, age and gender-matched adolescents. RESULTS All diabetic children showed a significant increase in uNGAL (P<0.001). This increase was not related to blood pressure. The uNGAL was elevated in all patients with normal albuminuria, normal eGFR and NBP. The concentration of uTransf was not increased in the entire studied group and was not related to blood pressure. Children with GHF had significantly higher levels of both uTransf (P=0.010) and uNGAL (P<0.001). In patients with GHF, blood pressure was normal. Patients with IBP showed a significantly higher value for triglycerides (r=0.247; P=0.032) and a longer duration of diabetes (r=0.264; P=0.019). CONCLUSIONS Diabetes is the leading risk factor for early kidney injury. However, increased blood pressure does not lead to kidney damage, at least in the early stage of DM1. The uNGAL is the early indicator of kidney injury and increases in patients with normal albuminuria, normal glomerular filtration and normal blood pressure. Glomerular hyperfiltration seems to be a marker of diabetic-kidney involvement.

Abstract
Curing produces a characteristic pink color during meat processing through the production of nitrosyl myoglobin (NOMb), which requires nitric oxide (NO). Nitrites and nitrates in coloring agents are crucial NO sources; however, a reducing agent is necessary to facilitate their chemical conversion to NO. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the reducing properties of whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) on the reddening of cured meat products. Cured and cooked sausage models were treated with WPH, which enhanced the reddening of the meat color and increased the a* value in the models compared with that of the controls. Additionally, ethanol-extracted WPH induced Fe3⁺ reduction, lowered oxidation-reduction potential, and decreased nitrite (NO2-) levels. Moreover, ethanol-extracted WPH promoted the formation of NOMb in myoglobin solution. This effect was also observed when ethanol-extracted WPH treated with maleimide was used, implying that certain peptides rather than the thiol group of WPH are involved in promoting NOMb formation. Furthermore, the peptides that decreased NO2- levels were isolated from ethanol-extracted WPH, identified, and synthesized. These synthesized peptides, particularly the FFVAPFPEVFGK peptide, showed NO2--reducing activity. Hence, WPH may promote the coloration of cured meat products through the reducing potential of the peptides contained within.

Abstract
Proteinuria is an important sign of kidney diseases. Different protein patterns in urine associated with glomerular, tubular and overload proteinuria may be differentiated using the immunochemical detection of indicator proteins or via urinary proteins electrophoresis. Our aim was to characterize sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) using commercially available 4-20% gradient gels as a method to detect and differentiate proteinuria. Our laboratory-based study used excess urine samples collected for routine diagnostic purposes from adult patients of a tertiary-care hospital, including patients with albumin/creatinine < 30 mg/g and patients with dipstick proteinuria. The limit of albumin detection was estimated to be 3 mg/L. In 93 samples with albumin/creatinine < 30 mg/g, an albumin fraction was detected in 87% of samples with a minimum albumin concentration of 2.11 mg/L. The separation of 300 urine samples of patients with proteinuria revealed distinct protein patterns differentiated using the molecular weights of the detected proteins: glomerular (albumin and higher molecular weights) and two types of tubular proteinuria ("upper" ≥20 kDa and "lower" with lower molecular weights). These patterns were associated with different values of the glomerular filtration rate (median 66, 71 and 31 mL/min/1.72 m2, respectively, p = 0.004) and different proportions of multiple myeloma and nephrological diagnoses. As confirmed using tandem mass spectrometry and western blot, the SDS-PAGE protein fractions contained indicator proteins including immunoglobulin G, transferrin (glomerular proteinuria), α1-microglobulin, retinol-binding protein, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, cystatin C, and β2-microglobulin (tubular), immunoglobulin light chain, myoglobin, and lysozyme (overflow). SDS-PAGE separation of urine proteins on commercially available 4-20% gradient gels is a reliable technique to diagnose proteinuria and differentiate between its main clinically relevant types.

Abstract
Venison, a type of game meat, has several health benefits because it contains not only high protein and low fat but also bioactive peptides with several physiological properties, including antioxidative and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant activity of venison treated by in vitro cooking and gastrointestinal digestion. We subjected venison along with pork and beef to in vitro cooking and digestion and assessed their antioxidant activity via 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging (DPPH-RS) and hydrophilic oxygen radical absorbance capacity (H-ORAC) assays. The peptide contents of all types of cooked and digested meat samples were higher than those of the untreated and cooked samples. The DPPH-RS activities and H-ORAC of digested venison, pork, and beef were increased compared with those of untreated samples. DPPH-RS activity was significantly higher in the digested venison samples than in the digested pork and beef samples. In this study, several fractions of digested venison from the chromatography exhibited DPPH-RS activity. Peptide analysis, using liquid-chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry, unveiled two peptides DIDDLELTLAK and TQTVCNFTDGALVQHQEWDGK with high DPPH-RS activities. Thus, venison is a rich source of antioxidant peptides and potentially demonstrate an antioxidation ability by digestive enzymes in vivo.

Abstract
Background and Aim Anemia is an important factor in surviving chronic kidney disease (CKD). Anemia in CKD is associated with various factors, such as inadequate production of erythropoietin and the availability of iron and its binding protein. Reduced total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) and iron concentrations may be related to their urinary loss along with proteinuria. This study aimed to determine the urinary loss of iron and transferrin (TF) in relation to the degree of proteinuria. Materials and Methods The study was performed on 37 dogs with CKD. Dogs were divided according to the severity of proteinuria into two groups based on the mean of urinary protein-creatinine (UPC) ratio into UPC ratio <4 and UPC ratio >4. The hematocrit (HCT), blood chemistries, plasma iron, plasma TF, UPC ratio, urinary iron per creatinine ratio (U-Iron/CR), and urinary TF per creatinine ratio (U-TF/CR) were evaluated. Results Anemia was associated with the severity of renal impairment as demonstrated by reduction of HCT when staging of CKD was higher. Dogs with UPC ratio >4 had higher urinary loss of both U-Iron/CR (p < 0.01) and U-TF/CR (p < 0.001) with lower plasma TIBC (p < 0.001). The UPC ratio was positively correlated with both U-Iron/CR (r = 0.710, p < 0.001) and U-TF/CR (r = 0.730, p < 0.001) but negatively with TIBC (r = -0.462, p < 0.01). Conclusion Proteinuria was associated with urinary loss of both iron and TF which may contribute to anemia in CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (uL-FABP) is a promising biomarker to detect early chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats. Few healthy cats show increased uL-FABP for unknown reasons. OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to evaluate uL-FABP in a large healthy elderly cat population comparing cats with and without International Renal Interest Society (IRIS) stage 1 CKD and with and without borderline proteinuria. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study. One hundred ninety-six clinically healthy client-owned cats of ≥7 years old were subdivided based on two criteria: (1) having either IRIS stage 1 CKD or no evidence of CKD and (2) having borderline proteinuria or no proteinuria. Urinary L-FABP was measured using a validated commercially available feline L-FABP ELISA. RESULTS Overall, uL-FABP was detectable in 6/196 (3%) healthy elderly cats. For the first subdivision, nine (5%) cats had IRIS stage 1 CKD, 184 cats had no evidence CKD and three cats were excluded. All cats with IRIS stage 1 CKD had uL-FABP concentrations below the detection limit, whereas 6/184 (3%) cats without IRIS stage 1 CKD had detectable uL-FABP concentrations (median 1.79 ng/ml, range 0.79-3.66 ng/ml). For the second subdivision, 47 (24%) cats had borderline proteinuria, 147 cats had no proteinuria and two cats were excluded. One of the borderline proteinuric cats had a detectable uL-FABP concentration, whereas the other five cats with detectable uL-FABP concentrations were non-proteinuric. CONCLUSION With the current assay, the screening potential of uL-FABP as an early biomarker for feline CKD is limited as uL-FABP was rarely detected in clinically healthy elderly cats independently of the presence of either IRIS stage 1 CKD or borderline proteinuria.

Abstract
Serum creatinine concentration, the classical biomarker of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats, has important limitations that decrease its value as a biomarker of early CKD. Recently, serum symmetric dimethylarginine concentration was introduced as a novel glomerular filtration rate biomarker for the early detection of CKD in cats. However, data on its specificity are still limited. The limitations of conventional biomarkers and the desire for early therapeutic intervention in cats with CKD to improve outcomes have prompted the discovery and validation of novel renal biomarkers to detect glomerular or tubular dysfunction. Changes in the serum or urinary concentrations of these biomarkers may indicate early kidney damage or predict the progression of kidney before changes in conventional biomarkers are detectable. This review summarizes current knowledge on renal biomarkers in CKD in cats, a field that has progressed substantially over the last 5 years.

Abstract
Urine is the basic diagnostic material, easy to collect, not requiring invasive approach. During standard procedure the urine samples are centrifuged and the supernatant analysed physically, biochemically, and microscopically. The centrifugation step removes proteins including those forming aggregates especially in the state of illness and after transplantation. Here, we analysed the effect of urine centrifuging on specific protein content in urine samples obtained from cardiovascular patients (CVD) and after kidney or liver transplantation. We tested homogeneous whole urine samples, standardly centrifuge one, and the pellet after centrifuging. Protein content was examined using Western blot analysis and mass spectrometry (MS) of samples from CVD patients or the one after transplantation. The average of 21% proteins from non-centrifuged samples were found in the pellet removed after standard centrifugation. MS analysis confirmed that diagnostically important proteins were located there in. In 90% of cases whole urine samples contained more proteins than standard supernatant, among them e.g. proteins involved in immunological response like immunoglobulins and complement compounds secreted by leucocytes. Replacing centrifuging with intensive mixing of urine samples provides a method of enriching the samples with proteins removed during standard procedure, thus increasing possibility of finding new biomarkers for diseases undiagnosable with classic urine analysis.

The Kidney-Related Effects of Polystyrene Microplastics on Human Kidney Proximal Tubular Epithelial Cells HK-2 and Male C57BL/6 Mice. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES 2021; 129:57003. [PMID: 33956507 PMCID: PMC8101928 DOI: 10.1289/ehp7612] [Citation(s) in RCA: 104] [Impact Index Per Article: 34.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Revised: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the epidemic of chronic kidney disease of uncertain etiology may be critical for health policies and public health responses. Recent studies have shown that microplastics (MPs) contaminate our food chain and accumulate in the gut, liver, kidney, muscle, and so on. Humans manufacture many plastics-related products. Previous studies have indicated that particles of these products have several effects on the gut and liver. Polystyrene (PS)-MPs (PS-MPs) induce several responses, such as oxidative stress, and affect living organisms. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of PS-MPs in kidney cells in vitro and in vivo. METHODS PS-MPs were evaluated in human kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) and male C57BL/6 mice. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, inflammation, and autophagy were analyzed in kidney cells. In vivo, we evaluated biomarkers of kidney function, kidney ultrastructure, muscle mass, and grip strength, and urine protein levels, as well as the accumulation of PS-MPs in the kidney tissue. RESULTS Uptake of PS-MPs at different concentrations by HK-2 cells resulted in higher levels of mitochondrial ROS and the mitochondrial protein Bad. Cells exposed to PS-MPs had higher ER stress and markers of inflammation. MitoTEMPO, which is a mitochondrial ROS antioxidant, mitigated the higher levels of mitochondrial ROS, Bad, ER stress, and specific autophagy-related proteins seen with PS-MP exposure. Furthermore, cells exposed to PS-MPs had higher protein levels of LC3 and Beclin 1. PS-MPs also had changes in phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and protein kinase B (AKT)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (mTOR) signaling pathways. In an in vivo study, PS-MPs accumulated and the treated mice had more histopathological lesions in the kidneys and higher levels of ER stress, inflammatory markers, and autophagy-related proteins in the kidneys after PS-MPs treatment by oral gavage. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that PS-MPs caused mitochondrial dysfunction, ER stress, inflammation, and autophagy in kidney cells and accumulated in HK-2 cells and in the kidneys of mice. These results suggest that long-term PS-MPs exposure may be a risk factor for kidney health. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP7612.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is a highly toxic metal and kidney is its main target. However, the molecular effects and associated potential impacts of Cd-accumulated kidney have not been well investigated. In this study, mouse was used as a model to investigate the Cd-induced proteomic profile change in kidney, and a total of 34 differentially expressed proteins were detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and further identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Through Gene Ontology analysis and KEGG pathway annotation, it showed that Cd-regulated kidney metabolism and promoted renal damage and cell migration. By validation of Western blotting and RT-qPCR, metastasis-related proteins LIM and SH3 domain protein 1 (LASP1) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase/cytosolic [GTP] (PEPCK1) were confirmed to be upregulated; Acyl-CoA synthetase medium-chain family member 3 (ACSM3) was downregulated. Furthermore, carcinoma development-related proteins initiation factor 4A (eIF4A) and pyridoxine-5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO) were upregulated, and pyridoxal kinase (PK) was downregulated. The downregulation of Na(+)/H(+) exchange regulatory cofactor (NHERF3) might promote renal damage which associated with decrease of transferrin (TRF) in kidney. Taken together, our results revealed proteomic profile of Cd-induced nephrotoxicity and provided data for further insights into the mechanisms of Cd toxicity.

Abstract
Iron metabolism, hepcidin and some blood profiles were investigated in 13 healthy and 31
chronic kidney disease (CKD) dogs. The study consisted of 2 experiments, experiment I
included healthy dogs (CONT) and CKD dogs (stage 2, 3 and 4), while experiment II
consisted of anemic CKD dogs subjected to 28-day darbepoetin alfa treatment. The response
to darbepoetin alfa could divide anemic CKD dogs into responder (RP) and non-responder
(NRP) subgroups. The results from experiment I showed that packed cell volume (PCV) and
plasma albumin concentration were significantly lower in CKD dogs of all stages while the
total iron binding capacity (TIBC) was lower in only CKD stage 3 and 4 compared with dogs
in CONT group. The PCV was related to both TIBC and albumin when considering among all
dogs or only in CKD dogs. The hepcidin concentration in CKD dogs with anemia was lower
than those without anemia (P<0.05). In experiment II before
darbepoetin alfa treatment, RP subgroup had significantly higher iron and TIBC compared
with NRP subgroup (P<0.05), the iron concentration was decreased only
in RP subgroup after darbepoetin alfa treatment (P<0.05). The percent
increase in PCV was correlated with initial TIBC (P<0.01). Plasma
hepcidin concentration was not different between CONT and CKD groups and between RP and
NRP subgroups both before and after darbepoetin alfa treatment. It is concluded that TIBC
and plasma iron concentration play role on anemia and erythropoietic response to
darbepoetin alfa treatment in CKD dogs.

Abstract
Game meat has been underutilized, while it offers the potential to diversify not only the human diet but also increase food production and the nutritional value of meat products. This study aimed to determine the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of the digested game meats (venison and boar meat) compared with those of livestock meats (beef and pork). Through the sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and size chromatography results, we found that the digested products from each meat had different molecular weights. The ACE inhibitory ratio in all tested samples had gradually increased following by the enzyme treatments. ACE inhibitory ratios and the half maximal inhibitory concentration values indicated that digested venison was the most potent inhibitor of ACE activity, followed by the digested boar meat. The level of anserine in digested venison was higher than that in the other meats, but the carnosine level was lower. Through fractionations and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis, five ACE inhibitory peptides were identified from the digested venison. Of these peptides, Isoleucine-Lysine- Glutamic Acid-Valine-Threonine-Glutamic Acid-Arginine (IKEVTER) demonstrated the highest ACE inhibitory activity. Therefore, the game meat is food that is believed potentially to offer high bioactivities, particularly antihypertensive forces.

Abstract
FGF-23 has arisen as an early biomarker of renal dysfunction, but at the onset of chronic kidney disease (CKD), data suggest that FGF-23 may be produced independently of the parathyroid hormone (PTH), 1,25(OH)2 -vitamin D3 signaling axis. Iron status is inversely correlated to the level of circulating FGF-23, and improvement in iron bioavailability within patients correlates with a decrease in FGF-23. Alternately, recent evidence also supports a regulatory role of inflammatory cytokines in the modulation of FGF-23 expression. To determine the identity of the signal from the kidney-inducing upregulation of osteocytic FGF-23 at the onset of CKD, we utilized a mouse model of congenital CKD that fails to properly mature the glomerular capillary tuft. We profiled the sequential presentation of indicators of renal dysfunction, phosphate imbalance, and iron bioavailability and transport to identify the events that initiate osteocytic production of FGF-23 during the onset of CKD. We report here that elevations in circulating intact-FGF-23 coincide with the earliest indicators of renal dysfunction (P14), and precede changes in serum phosphate or iron homeostasis. Serum PTH was also not changed within the first month. Instead, production of the inflammatory protein IL-1β from the kidney and systemic elevation of it in the circulation matched the induction of FGF-23. IL-1β's ability to induce FGF-23 was confirmed on bone chips in culture and within mice in vivo. Furthermore, neutralizing antibody to IL-1β blocked FGF-23 expression in both our congenital model of CKD and a second nephrotoxic serum-mediated model. We conclude that early CKD resembles a situation of primary FGF-23 excess mediated by inflammation. These findings do not preclude that altered mineral availability or anemia can later modulate FGF-23 levels but find that in early CKD they are not the driving stimulus for the initial upregulation of FGF-23. © 2020 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
Background Liver‐type fatty acid‐binding protein (L‐FABP) is a biomarker for early detection of renal disease in humans. Liver‐type fatty acid‐binding protein is cytotoxic oxidation products secreted from proximal tubules under ischemia and oxidative stress. Objective To examine renal expression and quantify urinary excretion of L‐FABP in catswith renal disease. Animals One hundred and thirty‐four client‐owned cats including 34 cats with serum creatinine (sCre) values >1.6 mg/dL and 10 other cats that died in clinics. Methods Tissue expressions of L‐FABP were examined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. Urinary L‐FABP (uL‐FABP) and serum L‐FABP (sL‐FABP) levels were determined by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Anti‐liver‐type fatty acid‐binding protein antibody immunostained renal sections. Results Feline kidneys express L‐FABP. Strong L‐FABP signals were observed in the lumens of proximal tubular cells in 5 cats with high uL‐FABP excretion, but not in 5 cats with low uL‐FABP excretion. In 9 normal cats, uL‐FABP index was <1.2 μg/g urinary creatinine (uCre). High uL‐FABP indexes (>10.0 μg/g uCre) were detected in 7 of 100 cats with low sCre (<1.6 mg/dL) and 18 of 44 cats with high sCre (>1.6 mg/dL). There was a weak correlation between L‐FABP index and sCre, serum symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), or blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and these correlation coefficients were increased by analyzing only data of cats with sCre >1.6 mg/dL. There was a weak correlation between u L‐FABP index and sL‐FABP in all tested cats, but not in cats with high sCre. Conclusions and Clinical Importance This study demonstrates correlations between L‐FABP and current renal biomarkers for chronic kidney disease in cats, such as sCre and SDMA. Liver‐type fatty acid‐binding protein may be a potential biomarker to predict early pathophysiological events in feline kidneys.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) and idiopathic hypercalciuria (IHC) are stone-forming diseases that may result in the formation of calcium (Ca) oxalate (Ox) stones, nephrocalcinosis, and progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). Poorer clinical outcome in PH1 is segregated by the highest urine (Ur)-Ox (UrOx), while IHC outcomes are not predictable by UrCa. We hypothesized that differences would be found in selected Ur-protein (PRO) patterns in PH1 and IHC, compared to healthy intra-familial sibling controls (C) of PH1 patients. We also hypothesized that the PRO patterns associated with higher UrOx levels would reflect injury, inflammation, biomineralization, and abnormal tissue repair processes in PH1. METHODS Twenty four-hour Ur samples were obtained from 3 cohorts: PH1 (n = 47); IHC (n = 35) and C (n = 13) and were analyzed using targeted platform-based multi-analyte profile immunoassays and for UrOx and UrCa by biochemical measurements. RESULTS Known stone matrix constituents, osteopontin, calbindin, and vitronectin were lowest in PH1 (C > IHC > PH1; p < 0.05). Ur-interleukin-10; chromogranin A; epidermal growth factor (EGF); insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and macrophage inflammatory PRO-1α (MIP-1α) were higher in PH1 > C (p = 0.03 to p < 0.05). Fetuin A; IGF-1, MIP-1α, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 were highest in PH1 > IHC (p < 0.001 to p = 0.005). CONCLUSION PH1 Ur-PROs reflected overt inflammation, chemotaxis, oxidative stress, growth factors (including EGF), and pro-angiogenic and calcification regulation/inhibition compared to the C and IHC cohorts. Many of the up- and downregulated PH1-PROs found in this study are also found in CKD, acute kidney injury, stone formers, and/or stone matrices. Further data analyses may provide evidence for PH1 unique PROs or demonstrate a poorer clinical outcome.
