Renal tubule-specific Atgl deletion links kidney lipid metabolism to glucagon-like peptide 1 and insulin secretion independent of renal inflammation or lipotoxicity. Mol Metab 2024; 81:101887. [PMID: 38280449 PMCID: PMC10850971 DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2024.101887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 01/29/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Lipotoxic injury from renal lipid accumulation in obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) is implicated in associated kidney damage. However, models examining effects of renal ectopic lipid accumulation independent of obesity or T2D are lacking. We generated renal tubule-specific adipose triglyceride lipase knockout (RT-SAKO) mice to determine if this targeted triacylglycerol (TAG) over-storage affects glycemic control and kidney health. METHODS Male and female RT-SAKO mice and their control littermates were tested for changes in glycemic control at 10-12 and 16-18 weeks of age. Markers of kidney health and blood lipid and hormone concentrations were analyzed. Kidney and blood lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) levels were measured, and a role for LPA in mediating impaired glycemic control was evaluated using the LPA receptor 1/3 inhibitor Ki-16425. RESULTS All groups remained insulin sensitive, but 16- to 18-week-old male RT-SAKO mice became glucose intolerant, without developing kidney inflammation or fibrosis. Rather, these mice displayed lower circulating insulin and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) levels. Impaired first-phase glucose-stimulated insulin secretion was detected and restored by Exendin-4. Kidney and blood LPA levels were elevated in older male but not female RT-SAKO mice, associated with increased kidney diacylglycerol kinase epsilon. Inhibition of LPA-mediated signaling restored serum GLP-1 levels, first-phase insulin secretion, and glucose tolerance. CONCLUSIONS TAG over-storage alone is insufficient to cause renal tubule lipotoxicity. This work is the first to show that endogenously derived LPA modulates GLP-1 levels in vivo, demonstrating a new mechanism of kidney-gut-pancreas crosstalk to regulate insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis.

Zhao Y, Pan X, Chen Y, Tan Y, Liu D. Lesion size affects the risk of technical difficulty in gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection. Sci Rep 2024; 14:1526. [PMID: 38233438 PMCID: PMC10794234 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-52150-z] [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: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Current evidence shows an inter-country inconsistency in the effect of lesion size on the technical difficulty of gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). We aimed to evaluate the specific correlation and quantify the ensuing risks. This retrospective study consisted of 405 ESD cases with gastric single lesion from April 2015 to April 2023. The correlation and risk prediction of lesion size with technical difficulty was explored to provide further clinical evidence. An additive generalized model and recursive algorithm were used to describe the non-linear association, and a linear two-piece regression was constructed to analyze the inflection point. Subgroup analysis and interaction were used to explore intergroup characteristics. Overall, difficult cases had larger lesion sizes, and the more significant the increase, the higher the risk of technical difficulty. In the full model, after adjusting for all covariates, each 1 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm, and one standard increase in lesion size increased the risk of technical difficulty by 8%, 26%, 42%, 72%, and 125%, respectively. There is a nonlinear positive correlation between lesion size and risk of technical difficulty, and the premeditated inflection point was 40 (mm) via two-piecewise linear regression and recursive algorithm. Subgroup analysis showed a stronger correlation between lesion size and difficult ESD in the upper site and submucosal fibrosis groups. Available evidence suggests that lesion size as a risk signal nonlinearly increases the technical difficulty of gastric ESD procedure, especially in cases of upper site and submucosal fibrosis, which deserves further investigation.

[PMID: 37248291 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-35874-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum ferritin level and prognosis in sepsis. It also explored the potential prognostic value of serum ferritin for predicting outcomes in sepsis based on a large public database. Sepsis patients in MIMIC-IV database were included. Different models including crude model (adjusted for none), model I (adjusted for age and gender) and model II (adjusted for all potential confounders) were performed. Smooth fitting curves were constructed for exploring the relationships between serum ferritin and mortalities of 28-day, 90-day, 180-day and 1-year. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was utilized for assessing the predictive value of serum ferritin. 1947 sepsis patients were included. The mortalities of 28-day, 90-day, 180-day and 1-year were 20.18% (n = 393), 28.35% (n = 552), 30.30% (n = 590) and 31.54% (n = 614), respectively. In Model II (adjusted for all potential confounders), for every 1000 ng/ml increment in serum ferritin, the values of OR in mortalities of in 28-day, 90-day, 180-day and 1-year were 1.13 (95% CI 1.07-1.19, P < 0.0001), 1.15 (95% CI 1.09-1.21, P < 0.0001), 1.16 (95% CI 1.10-1.22, P < 0.0001) and 1.17 (95% CI 1.10-1.23, P < 0.0001), respectively. The relationships between serum ferritin level and outcomes were non-linear. The areas under the ROC curve (AUC) of ferritin for predicting mortalities of 28-day, 90-day, 180-day and 1-year were 0.597 (95% CI 0.563-0.629), 0.593 (95% CI 0.564-0.621), 0.595 (95% CI 0.567-0.623) and 0.592 (95% CI 0.564-0.620), respectively. The non-linear relationships between serum ferritin and clinical outcomes in sepsis were found. Serum ferritin had a predictive value for short-term and long-term outcomes in sepsis.
