- Potential Biomarkers of the Turnover, Mineralization, and Volume Classification: Results Using NMR Metabolomics in Hemodialysis Patients(2020) BAPTISTA, A.L.; PADILHA, K.; MALAGRINO, P.A.; VENTURINI, G.; ZERI, A.C.M.; REIS, L.M. dos; MARTINS, J.S.; JORGETTI, V.; PEREIRA, A.C.; TITAN, S.M.; MOYSES, R.M.A.Bone biopsy is still the gold standard to assess bone turnover (T), mineralization (M), and volume (V) in CKD patients, and serum biomarkers are not able to replace histomorphometry. Recently, metabolomics has emerged as a new technique that could allow for the identification of new biomarkers useful for disease diagnosis or for the understanding of pathophysiologic mechanisms, but it has never been assessed in the chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD–MBD) scenario. In this study, we investigated the association between serum metabolites and the bone TMV classification in patients with end-stage renal disease by using serum NMR spectroscopy and bone biopsy of 49 hemodialysis patients from a single center in Brazil. High T was identified in 21 patients and was associated with higher levels of dimethylsulfone, glycine, citrate, and N-acetylornithine. The receiver-operating characteristic curve for the combination of PTH and these metabolites provided an area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.86 (0.76 to 0.97). Abnormal M was identified in 30 patients and was associated with lower ethanol. The AUC for age, diabetes mellitus, and ethanol was 0.83 (0.71 to 0.96). Low V was identified in 17 patients and was associated with lower carnitine. The association of age, phosphate, and carnitine provided an AUC of 0.83 (0.70 to 0.96). Although differences among the curves by adding selected metabolites to traditional models were not statistically significant, the accuracy of the diagnosis according to the TMV classification seemed to be improved. This is the first study to evaluate the TMV classification system in relation to the serum metabolome assessed by NMR spectroscopy, showing that selected metabolites may help in the evaluation of bone phenotypes in CKD–MBD. © 2020 The Authors.

- Transcription factor HNF4 & alpha;2 promotes osteogenesis and prevents bone abnormalities in mice with renal osteodystrophy(2023) MARTINEZ-CALLE, Marta; COURBON, Guillaume; HUNT-TOBEY, Bridget; FRANCIS, Connor; SPINDLER, Jadeah; WANG, Xueyan; REIS, Luciene M. dos; MARTINS, Carolina S. W.; SALUSKY, Isidro B.; MALLUCHE, Hartmut; NICKOLAS, Thomas L.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; DAVID, Valentin; MARTIN, AlineRenal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a disorder of bone metabolism that affects virtually all patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes including fractures, cardiovascular events, and death. In this study, we showed that hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 & alpha; (HNF4 & alpha;), a transcription factor mostly expressed in the liver, is also expressed in bone, and that osseous HNF4 & alpha; expression was dramatically reduced in patients and mice with ROD. Osteoblast-specific deletion of Hnf4 & alpha; resulted in impaired osteogenesis in cells and mice. Using multi-omics analyses of bones and cells lacking or overexpressing Hnf4 & alpha;1 and Hnf4 & alpha;2, we showed that HNF4 & alpha;2 is the main osseous Hnf4 & alpha; isoform that regulates osteogenesis, cell metabolism, and cell death. As a result, osteoblast-specific overexpression of Hnf4 & alpha;2 prevented bone loss in mice with CKD. Our results showed that HNF4 & alpha;2 is a transcriptional regulator of osteogenesis, implicated in the development of ROD.
- Ethnic differences in bone and mineral metabolism in healthy people and patients with CKD(2014) JORGETTI, Vanda; REIS, Luciene M. dos; OTT, Susan M.Several studies have shown racial differences in the regulation of mineral metabolism, in the acquisition of bone mass and structure of individuals. In this review, we examine ethnic differences in bone and mineral metabolism in normal individuals and in patients with chronic kidney disease. Black individuals have lower urinary excretion and increased intestinal calcium absorption, reduced levels of 25(OH)D, and high levels of 1.25(OH)(2)D and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Body phosphorus concentration is higher and the levels of FGF-23 are lower than in whites. Mineral density and bone architecture are better in black individuals. These differences translate into advantages for blacks who have stronger bones, less risk of fractures, and less cardiovascular calcification. In the United States of America, the prevalence of kidney disease is similar in different ethnic groups. However, black individuals progress more quickly to advanced stages of kidney disease than whites. This faster progression does not translate into increased mortality, higher in whites, especially in the first year of dialysis. Some ethnicity-related variations in mineral metabolism persist when individuals develop CKD. Therefore, black patients have lower serum calcium concentrations, less hyperphosphatemia, low levels of 25(OH)D, higher levels of PTH, and low levels of FGF-23 compared with white patients. Bone biopsy studies show that blacks have greater bone volume. The rate of fractures and cardiovascular diseases are also less frequent. Further studies are required to better understand the cellular and molecular bases of these racial differences in bone mineral metabolism and thus better treat patients.
- The complexity of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder across stages of chronic kidney disease(2017) GRACIOLLI, Fabiana G.; NEVES, Katia R.; BARRETO, Fellype; BARRETO, Daniela V.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; CANZIANI, Maria E.; SABBAGH, Yves; CARVALHO, Aluizio B.; JORGETTI, Vanda; ELIAS, Rosilene M.; SCHIAVI, Susan; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD) is a complex disease that is not completely understood. However, some factors secreted by the osteocytes might play an important role in its pathophysiology. Therefore, we evaluated the bone expression of proteins in a group of patients with CKD 2-3, CKD 4, and CKD 5 on dialysis and healthy individuals. We also tested several bone remodeling markers, and correlated these levels with bone biopsy findings. As expected, as serum calcium decreased, serum phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), parathyroid hormone, and osteoprotegerin increased, as CKD progressed. Additionally, there was a gradual increase in bone resorption associated with a decrease in bone formation and impairment in bone mineralization. Bone expression of sclerostin and parathyroid hormone receptor-1 seemed to be increased in earlier stages of CKD, whereas FGF-23 and phosphorylated beta-catenin had increased expression in the late stages of CKD, although all these proteins were elevated relative to healthy individuals. Immunohistochemical studies showed that FGF-23 and sclerostin did not co-localize, suggesting that distinct osteocytes produce these proteins. Moreover, there was a good correlation between serum levels and bone expression of FGF-23. Thus, our studies help define the complex mechanism of bone and mineral metabolism in patients with CKD. Linkage of serum markers to bone expression of specific proteins may facilitate our understanding and management of this disease.
- Repression of osteocyte Wnt/beta-catenin signaling is an early event in the progression of renal osteodystrophy(2012) SABBAGH, Yves; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana Giorgeti; O'BRIEN, Stephen; TANG, Wen; REIS, Luciene Machado dos; RYAN, Susan; PHILLIPS, Lucy; BOULANGER, Joseph; SONG, Wenping; BRACKEN, Christina; LIU, Shiguang; LEDBETTER, Steven; DECHOW, Paul; CANZIANI, Maria Eugenia F.; CARVALHO, Aluizio B.; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; SCHIAVI, Susan C.Chronic kidney diseasemineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is defined by abnormalities in mineral and hormone metabolism, bone histomorphometric changes, and/or the presence of soft-tissue calcification. Emerging evidence suggests that features of CKD-MBD may occur early in disease progression and are associated with changes in osteocyte function. To identify early changes in bone, we utilized the jck mouse, a genetic model of polycystic kidney disease that exhibits progressive renal disease. At 6 weeks of age, jck mice have normal renal function and no evidence of bone disease but exhibit continual decline in renal function and death by 20 weeks of age, when approximately 40% to 60% of them have vascular calcification. Temporal changes in serum parameters were identified in jck relative to wild-type mice from 6 through 18 weeks of age and were subsequently shown to largely mirror serum changes commonly associated with clinical CKD-MBD. Bone histomorphometry revealed progressive changes associated with increased osteoclast activity and elevated bone formation relative to wild-type mice. To capture the early molecular and cellular events in the progression of CKD-MBD we examined cell-specific pathways associated with bone remodeling at the protein and/or gene expression level. Importantly, a steady increase in the number of cells expressing phosphor-Ser33/37-beta-catenin was observed both in mouse and human bones. Overall repression of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling within osteocytes occurred in conjunction with increased expression of Wnt antagonists (SOST and sFRP4) and genes associated with osteoclast activity, including receptor activator of NF-?B ligand (RANKL). The resulting increase in the RANKL/osteoprotegerin (OPG) ratio correlated with increased osteoclast activity. In late-stage disease, an apparent repression of genes associated with osteoblast function was observed. These data confirm that jck mice develop progressive biochemical changes in CKD-MBD and suggest that repression of the Wnt/beta-catenin pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of renal osteodystrophy.

conferenceObject Bone histomorphometric effects of HIV infection and Antiretroviral therapy(2018) RAMALHO, Janaina; MARTINS, Csw; PEREIRA, Rmr; NICKOLAS, Thomas; YIN, Mt; GALVAO, J.; EIRA, Margareth; REIS, Lm; FURUKAWA, Luzia; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rm- A prospective study of the influence of the skeleton on calcium mass transfer during hemodialysis(2018) GOLDENSTEIN, Patricia Taschner; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana Giorgeti; ANTUNES, Gisele Lins; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner Vasques; REIS, Luciene Machado dos; MOE, Sharon; ELIAS, Rosilene Motta; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa Maria AffonsoBackground Calcium gradient, the difference between serum calcium and dialysate calcium d[Ca], is the main contributor factor influencing calcium transfer during hemodialysis. The impact, however, of bone turnover, on calcium mass transfer during hemodialysis is still uncertain. Methods This prospective cross-sectional study included 10 patients on hemodialysis for a 57.6 +/- 16.8 months, with severe hyperparathyroidism. Patients were submitted to 3 hemodialysis sessions using d[Ca] of 1.25, 1.5 and 1.75 mmol/l in three situations: pre-parathyroidectomy (pre-PTX), during hungry bone (early post-PTX), and after stabilization of clinical status (late post-PTX). Biochemical analysis and calcium mass transfer were evaluated and serum bone-related proteins were quantified. Results Calcium mass transfer varied widely among patients in each study phase with a median of -89.5, -76.8 and -3 mmol using d[Ca] 1.25 mmol/L, -106, -26.8 and 29.7 mmol using d[Ca] 1.50 mmol/L, and 12.8, -14.5 and 38 mmol using d[Ca] 1.75 mmol/L during pre-PTX, early post-PTX and late post-PTX, respectively, which was significantly different among d[Ca] (p = 0.0001) and among phases (p = 0.040). Ca gradient and delta of Ca also differed among d [Ca] and phases (p<0.05 for all comparisons), whether ultrafiltration was similar. Serum Osteocalcin decreased significantly in late post-PTX, whereas Sclerostin increased earlier, in early post-PTX. Conclusions The skeleton plays a key role in Ca mass transfer during dialysis, either by determining pre-dialysis serum Ca or by controlling the exchangeable Ca pool. Knowing that could help us to decide which d[Ca] should be chosen in a given patient.
conferenceObject Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4 alpha is a novel osteoblast transcription factor that regulates osteogenesis and plays a role in ROD pathogenesis(2023) MARTINEZ-CALLE, Marta; COURBON, Guillaume; HUNT-TOBEY, Bridget; FRANCIS, Connor; SPINDLER, Jadeah; WANG, Xueyan; REIS, Luciene M. dos; MARTINS, Carolina S. W.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; MARTIN, Aline; DAVID, Valentin- Treatment of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection With Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate-Containing Antiretrovirals Maintains Low Bone Formation Rate, But Increases Osteoid Volume on Bone Histomorphometry(2019) RAMALHO, Janaina; MARTINS, Carolina Steller Wagner; GALVAO, Juliana; FURUKAWA, Luzia N.; DOMINGUES, Wagner V.; OLIVEIRA, Ivone B.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; PEREIRA, Rosa M. R.; NICKOLAS, Thomas L.; YIN, Michael T.; EIRA, Margareth; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.Bone mineral density (BMD) loss is a known complication of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and its treatment, particularly with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-containing antiretroviral regimens. Although renal proximal tubular dysfunction and phosphaturia is common with TDF, it is unknown whether BMD loss results from inadequate mineralization. We evaluated change in BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and bone histomorphometry by tetracycline double-labeled transiliac crest biopsies in young men living with HIV before (n = 20) and 12 months after (n = 16) initiating TDF/lamivudine/efavirenz. We examined relationships between calciotropic hormones, urinary phosphate excretion, pro-inflammatory and pro-resorptive cytokines, and bone remodeling-related proteins with changes in BMD and histomorphometry. Mean age was 29.6 +/- 5.5 years, with mean CD4 + T cell count of 473 +/- 196 cells/mm(3). At baseline, decreased bone formation rate and increased mineralization lag time were identified in 16 (80%) and 12 (60%) patients, respectively. After 12 months, we detected a 2% to 3% decrease in lumbar spine and hip BMD by DXA. By histomorphometry, we observed no change in bone volume/total volume (BV/TV) and trabecular parameters, but rather, increases in cortical thickness, osteoid volume, and osteoblast and osteoclast surfaces. We did not observe significant worsening of renal phosphate excretion or mineralization parameters. Increases in PTH correlated with decreased BMD but not histomorphometric parameters. Overall, these data suggest abnormalities in bone formation and mineralization occur with HIV infection and are evident at early stages. With TDF-containing antiretroviral therapy (ART), there is an increase in bone remodeling, reflected by increased osteoblast and osteoclast surfaces, but a persistence in mineralization defect, resulting in increased osteoid volume.

- Effects of Dietary Phosphate on Adynamic Bone Disease in Rats with Chronic Kidney Disease - Role of Sclerostin?(2013) FERREIRA, Juliana C.; FERRARI, Guaraciaba O.; NEVES, Katia R.; CAVALLARI, Raquel T.; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana G.; OLIVEIRA, Elizabeth C.; LIU, Shiguang; SABBAGH, Yves; JORGETTI, Vanda; SCHIAVI, Susan; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.High phosphate intake is known to aggravate renal osteodystrophy along various pathogenetic pathways. Recent studies have raised the possibility that dysregulation of the osteocyte Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway is also involved in chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related bone disease. We investigated the role of dietary phosphate and its possible interaction with this pathway in an experimental model of adynamic bone disease (ABD) in association with CKD and hypoparathyroidism. Partial nephrectomy (Nx) and total parathyroidectomy (PTx) were performed in male Wistar rats. Control rats with normal kidney and parathyroid function underwent sham operations. Rats were divided into three groups and underwent pair-feeding for 8 weeks with diets containing either 0.6% or 1.2% phosphate: sham 0.6%, Nx+PTx 0.6%, and Nx+ PTx 1.2%. In the two Nx+ PTx groups, serum creatinine increased and blood ionized calcium decreased compared with sham control group. They also presented hyperphosphatemia and reduced serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels. Fractional urinary excretion of phosphate increased in Nx+ PTx 1.2% rats despite lower PTH and FGF23 levels than in sham group. These biochemical changes were accompanied by a decrease in bone formation rates. The Nx+ PTx 1.2% group had lower bone volume (BV/TV), higher osteoblast and osteocyte apoptosis, and higher SOST and Dickkopf-1 gene expression than the Nx +PTx 0.6% group. Nx+ PTx 0.6% rat had very low serum sclerostin levels, and Nx+ PTx 1.2% had intermediate sclerostin levels compared with sham group. Finally, there was a negative correlation between BV/TV and serum sclerostin. These results suggest that high dietary phosphate intake decreases bone volume in an experimental model of CKD-ABD, possibly via changes in SOST expression through a PTH-independent mechanism. These findings could have relevance for the clinical setting of CKD-ABD in patients who low turnover bone disease might be attenuated by optimal control of phosphate intake and/or absorption.
