- 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.
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- Time to rethink the use of bone biopsy to prevent fractures in patients with chronic kidney disease(2018) MARTINS, Carolina Steller Wagner; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa Maria AffonsoPurpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to provide evidence to justify the use of bone biopsy data to guide decisions regarding fracture prevention in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). To date, no data can support the use of bone biopsy for this purpose. However, we believe that bone turnover, mineralization and volume (TMV) data might help decide, which therapy to use.Recent findingsPrevious bone biopsy-based prospective and intervention studies have used bone turnover as an outcome measure. Recent data have shown that bone volume (trabecular and cortical) and mineralization should also be evaluated. Moreover, crystal quality and osteocytic protein expression can be analyzed using bone fragments. Noninvasive analysis of bone volume and bone turnover markers can be performed during patient follow-up.SummaryOnly bone biopsy can provide information on the TMV parameters. Case reports and retrospective studies suggest that bone histomorphometric analysis can guide better therapeutic decisions to prevent fractures in patients with CKD. However, prospective data are still lacking.
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.

- Hypokalemia and hyperkalemia in patients on peritoneal dialysis: incidence and associated factors(2020) GONCALVES, Fernanda A.; JESUS, Jessica Santos de; CORDEIRO, Lilian; PIRACIABA, Maria Clara T.; ARAUJO, Luiza K. R. P. de; MARTINS, Carolina Steller Wagner; DALBONI, Maria Aparecida; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; SILVA, Bruno C.; MOYSES, Rosa Maria A.; ABENSUR, Hugo; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Background Hypokalemia is a well-described electrolyte disturbance in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Hyperkalemia, however, is still overlooked, although it also represents a risk factor for mortality. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and/or angiotensin receptor blockers (ACE/ARB), diuretics, and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) can interfere with potassium levels in these patients. Methods This is a retrospective study that evaluated monthly serum potassium in a 5-year period. Serum potassium disturbances were evaluated as time-average and number of hypo- and hyperkalemia episodes per patient. Prescribed medication such as ACE/ARB, diuretics, and omeprazole were recorded. Results We evaluated 2025 potassium measurements obtained from 146 patients on PD. Serum potassium ranged from 2.5 to 8.3 mEq/L with an average of 4.72 +/- 0.74 mEq/L. Hypokalemia was found in 59 measurements (2.9%) obtained from 35 patients (23.9%) whereas hyperkalemia was demonstrated in 269 (13.3%) measurements obtained from 74 patients (50.7%). Hypokalemia was associated with low albumin (p = 0.022), and omeprazole use (p = 0.024). Black race was a protector factor (p = 0.031). Omeprazole-associated hypokalemia was seen only in non-anuric patients and remained an independent risk factor even after adjustments. Patients who had hyperkalemia were more likely to be anuric (p = 0.001) and in use of furosemide (p = 0.0001). Conclusion Hyperkalemia and hypokalemia are very frequent in patients on PD and should be closely monitored. Interventional studies should address the impact of discontinuing omeprazole in the levels of potassium.
- High-Flux versus High-Retention-Onset Membranes: In vivo Small and Middle Molecules Kinetics in Convective Dialysis Modalities(2020) CORDEIRO, Isis S. F.; CORDEIRO, Lilian; WAGNER, Carolina S.; ARAUJO, Luiza Karla R. P.; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; ABENSUR, Hugo; ELIAS, Rosilene M.; SILVA, Bruno C.Background: Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD) exhibit increased levels of uremic toxins, which are associated with poor outcomes. Recently, new dialysis membranes have allowed clearance of solutes with higher molecular weight, without significant albumin losses high-retention-onset-HD (HRO-HD). Methods: Prospective crossover trial, in which 16 prevalent patients switched from high-flux HD (HF-HD) to online hemodiafiltration (olHDF) and HRO-HD for 4 weeks. The following variables were evaluated: pre- and post-dialysis serum concentrations of albumin, urea, phosphate (P), beta-2 microglobulin (beta M-2), and total mass (TM) extraction and dialyzer clearance of urea, P, and beta M-2. Results: Comparing HF-HD, olHDF, and HRO-HD, respectively, there were no differences regarding pre-dialysis serum concentrations of albumin (3.94 +/- 0.36, 4.06 +/- 0.22, and 3.93 +/- 0.41 g/dL, p = 0.495), urea (166 +/- 29, 167 +/- 30, and 164 +/- 27 mg/dL, p = 0.971), P (4.9 +/- 2.1, 5.2 +/- 1.6, and 4.9 +/- 2.1 mg/dL, p = 0.879), and beta M-2 (31.3 +/- 7.1, 32.6 +/- 8.6, and 33.7 +/- 5.9 mu g/mL, p = 0.646). beta M-2 clearance was significantly lower in HF-HD in comparison to both olHDF and HRO-HD: 43 (37-53) versus 64 (48-85) mL/min, p = 0.013, and 69 (58-86) mL/min, p = 0.015, respectively. Post-dialysis beta M-2 serum concentration was higher in HF-HD in comparison to olHDF and HRO-HD: 11.6 (9.6-12.4) vs. 5.7 (4.5-7.0) mu g/mL, p = 0.001, and 5.6 (5.3-7.6) mu g/mL, p = 0.001, respectively. TM extraction of urea, P, and beta M-2 were similar across the 3 dialysis modalities. Conclusions: olHDF and HRO-HD were superior to HF-HD regarding beta M-2 clearance, leading to lower post-dialysis beta M-2 levels.
- Chronic kidney disease is a main confounding factor for 25-vitamin D measurement(2020) MACHADO, Hanna Karla Andrade Guapyassú; MARTINS, Carolina Steller Wagner; JORGETTI, Vanda; ELIAS, Rosilene Motta; MOYSÉS, Rosa Maria AffonsoAbstract Background: Current guidelines recommend assessment of 25-vitamin D status in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although significant differences among assays have been described, the impact of CKD on this variability has never been tested. Methods: We tested the variability between two 25-vitamin D assays in patients with CKD (eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2) who had consecutive 25-vitamin D measurements in 2015 (Assay 1 - Diasorin LIASON 25 TOTAL - D assay®) and 2016 (Assay 2 - Beckman Coulter Unicel Xl 800®). The cohort consisted of 791 adult patients (122 with normal renal function and 669 with CKD - 33, 30, and 37% in stages 3, 4, and 5 on dialysis, respectively). Results: Levels of 25-vitamin D were lower and the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D using assay 1 was higher than using assay 2 in patients with CKD, regardless of similar levels of calcium, phosphate, and parathyroid hormone. As kidney function decreased, the percentage of disagreement between the assays increased. Conclusion: There is a noteworthy variability between assays in patients with CKD such that the diagnosis of hypovitaminosis D is modified. The mechanism behind this result is still unclear and might be due to a possible interference in the analytical process. However, the clinical significance is unquestionable, as the supplementation of vitamin D can be erroneously prescribed to these patients.
