    Parathyroidectomy Improves Restless Leg Syndrome in Patients on Hemodialysis
    (2016) SANTOS, Roberto Savio Silva; COELHO, Fernando Morgadinho Santos; SILVA, Bruno Caldin da; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana Giorgeti; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner Velasquez; MONTENEGRO, Fabio Luiz de Menezes; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa Maria Affonso; ELIAS, Rosilene Motta
    Background Restless leg syndrome (RLS) is a sleep disorder with high prevalence among patients on hemodialysis. It has been postulated that high phosphate and high parathyroid hormone may be implicated in its pathogenesis. Standard international criteria and face-to-face interview are not always applied. Methods this was an interventional prospective study in which 19 patients (6 men, aged 48+/-11 years) with severe hyperparathyroidism were evaluated. RLS diagnosis and rating scale were accessed based on the International RLS Study Group pre- and post-parathyroidectomy. Patients also underwent standard polysomnography. Results At baseline, RLS was present in 10 patients (52.6%), and pain was the most reported symptom associated with the diagnosis. Patients with RLS had higher serum phosphate (p = 0.008) that remained independently associated with RLS in a logistic regression model, adjusted for hemoglobin, age and gender (HR = 7.28; CI = 1.14-46.3, p = 0.035). After parathyroidectomy, there was a reduction of serum parathyroid hormone, phosphate, calcium and alkaline phosphatase, and an increase of 25(OH)-vitamin D, and Fetuin-A. Parathyroidectomy alleviated RLS (from 52% to 21%; p = 0.04), which was accompanied by a decrease in severity scale, in association with relief of pain and pruritus. Polysomnography in these patients showed an improvement of sleep parameters as measured by sleep efficiency, sleep latency and percentage of REM sleep. Conclusion RLS is associated with high levels of phosphate in patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism on hemodialysis. Pain is most reported complain in these patients. Parathyroidectomy provided an opportunity to relief RLS. Whether the reduction of serum phosphorus or parathyroid hormone contributed to this improvement merits further investigation.

    Urinary CD80 and Serum suPAR as Biomarkers of Glomerular Disease among Adults in Brazil
    (2023) ZEN, Renata de Cassia; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner Vasques; BRAGA, Ivone; REIS, Luciene Machado dos; JORGE, Lecticia Barbosa; YU, Luis; WORONIK, Viktoria; DIAS, Cristiane Bitencourt
    Introduction: Urinary CD80 has been shown to have good specificity for minimal change disease (MCD) in children. However, the investigation of circulating factors such as soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) as biomarkers of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is quite controversial. The objective of this study was to determine whether urinary CD80 and serum suPAR can be used for the diagnosis of MCD and FSGS, respectively, in the adult population of Brazil. We also attempted to determine whether those biomarkers assess the response to immunosuppressive treatment. Methods: This was a prospective study in which urine and blood samples were collected for analysis of CD80 and suPAR, respectively, only in the moment of renal biopsy, from patients undergoing to diagnostic renal biopsy. At and six months after biopsy, we analyzed serum creatinine, serum albumin, and proteinuria in order to evaluate the use of the CD80 and suPAR collected in diagnosis as markers of response to immunosuppressive treatment. In healthy controls were collected urinary CD80 and proteinuria, serum suPAR, and creatinine. Results: The results of 70 renal biopsies were grouped, by diagnosis, as follows: FSGS (n = 18); membranous nephropathy (n = 14); MCD (n = 5); and other glomerulopathies (n = 33). There was no significant difference among the groups in terms of the urinary CD80 levels, and serum suPAR was not significantly higher in the FSGS group, as would have been expected. Urinary CD80 correlated positively with nephrotic syndrome, regardless of the type of glomerular disease. Neither biomarker correlated with proteinuria at six months after biopsy. Conclusion: In adults, urinary CD80 can serve as a marker of nephrotic syndrome but is not specific for MCD, whereas serum suPAR does not appear to be useful as a diagnostic or treatment response marker.

    Persistence of Bone and Mineral Disorders 2 Years After Successful Kidney Transplantation
    (2013) NEVES, Carolina L.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; BATISTA, Daniella G.; CUSTODIO, Melani R.; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana G.; MARTIN, Rita de Cassia T.; NEVES, Katia R.; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; MOYSES, Rosa M.; JORGETTI, Vanda
    Background. Studies that have conducted bone biopsies after kidney transplantation are scarce, and the results are conflicting. Methods. We evaluate the bone histomorphometry, in vitro proliferation, and alkaline phosphatase expression in osteoblasts isolated from bone biopsies from 27 kidney transplant patients. The patients had preserved renal function and were treated with the same immunosuppressive therapy, receiving a minimum dose of corticosteroids. Results. The biochemical analysis revealed that 41% of the patients presented with hypercalcemia, 26% presented with hypophosphatemia, and hypovitaminosis D was detected in 63%. The histomorphometric analysis showed a reduced trabecular number and increased trabecular separation, mineral apposition rate, and mineralization lag time, as well as higher osteoid surface, osteoblastic surface, resorption surface, and osteoclastic surface and a lower mineralizing surface, compared with the controls. Based on the TMV classification, bone turnover was normal in 48%, high in 26%, and low in 26% of patients. Bone mineralization was delayed in 48% of the patients, and 58% of the patients with hypovitaminosis D presented with delayed bone mineralization. Bone volume was low in 37% of the patients. The osteoblasts from patients exhibited a higher degree of proliferation compared with those from controls. Conclusion. Eight-two percent of our patients presented with alterations in at least one of the TMV parameters. Persistence of hyperparathyroidism, hypovitaminosis D, and immunosuppressive drugs may have influenced osteoblast function, which would explain many of the bone alterations found in these patients.

    Parathyroid hormone and phosphorus overload in uremia: impact on cardiovascular system
    (2012) CUSTODIO, Melani R.; KOIKE, Marcia K.; NEVES, Katia R.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana G.; NEVES, Carolina L.; BATISTA, Daniella G.; MAGALHAES, Andrea O.; HAWLITSCHEK, Philippe; OLIVEIRA, Ivone B.; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; JORGETTI, Vanda
    Background. Cardiac remodeling in uremia is characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis and microvascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in uremic patients, but coronary events alone are not the prevalent cause, sudden death and heart failure are. We studied the cardiac remodeling in experimental uremia, evaluating the isolated effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and phosphorus. Methods. Wistar rats were submitted to parathyroidectomy (PTx) and 5/6 nephrectomy (Nx); they also received vehicle (V) and PTH at normal (nPTH) or high (hPTH) doses. They were fed with a poor-phosphorus (pP) or rich-phosphorus (rP) diet and were divided into the following groups: 'Sham': G1 (V + normal-phosphorus diet (np)) and 'Nx + PTx': G2 (nPTH + pP), G3 (nPTH + rP), G4 (hPTH + pP) and G5 (hPTH + rP). After 8 weeks, biochemical analysis, myocardium morphometry and arteriolar morphological analysis were performed. In addition, using immunohistochemical analysis, we evaluated angiotensin II, alpha-actin, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) and nitrotyrosine, as well as fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR-1) and runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx-2) expression. Results. Nx animals presented higher serum creatinine levels as well as arterial hypertension. Higher PTH levels were associated with myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis as well as a higher coronary lesion score. High PTH animals also presented a higher myocardial expression of TGF-beta, angiotensin II, FGF-23 and nitrotyrosine and a lower expression of alpha-actin. Phosphorus overload was associated with higher serum FGF-23 levels and Runx-2, as well as myocardial hypertrophy. FGFR-1 was positive in the cardiomyocytes of all groups as well as in calcified coronaries of G4 and G5 whereas Runx-2 was positive in G3, G4 and G5. Conclusion. In uremia, PTH and phosphorus overload are both independently associated with major changes related to the cardiac remodeling process, emphasizing the need for a better control of these factors in chronic kidney disease.

    High Dialysate Calcium Concentration May Cause More Sympathetic Stimulus During Hemodialysis
    (2016) JIMENEZ, Zaida N. C.; SILVA, Bruno C.; REIS, Luciene dos; CASTRO, Manuel C. M.; RAMOS, Camila D.; COSTA-HONG, Valeria; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; OLIVEIRA, Ivone B.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.
    Background/Aims: Acute activation of sympathetic activation during hemodialysis is essential to maintain blood pressure (BP), albeit long-term overactivity contributes to higher mortality. Low heart rate variability (HRV), a measure of autonomic nervous system activity, and abnormal ankle-brachial index (ABI) are associated with higher mortality in patients on hemodialysis. In this study, we assessed HRV and ABI pre and post dialysis in incident patients on hemodialysis using high (1.75mmol/l) and low (1.25mmol/l) dialysate calcium concentration (DCa). Methods: HRV was measured as the ratio between low frequency and high frequency power (LF/HF). Thirty patients (age 47 16 years, 67% men) were studied in two consecutive mid-week hemodialysis sessions. Results: Mean BP variation was positive with DCa 1.75 and negative with DCa 1.25 [4.0 (-6.0, 12.2 mmHg) vs. -3.2 (-9.8, 1.3 mmHg); p=0.050]. Reduction of ABI from pre to post HD was related to higher sympathetic activity (p=0.031). The increase in LF/HF ratio was higher with DCa 1.75 (58.3% vs. 41.7% in DCa 1.75 and 1.25, respectively, RR 2.8; p=0.026). Conclusion: Although higher DCa is associated with better hemodynamic tolerability during hemodialysis, this occurs at the expense of increased sympathetic activity. Higher sympathetic activity was associated with a decrease of ABI during hemodialysis. (C) 2016 The Author(s) Published by S. Karger AG, Basel

    Comparison of clinical, biochemical and histomorphometric analysis of bone biopsies in dialysis patients with and without fractures
    (2019) SANTOS, Melissa F. P.; HERNANDEZ, Mariel J.; OLIVEIRA, Ivone B. de; SIQUEIRA, Flavia R.; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; CARVALHO, Aluizio B.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; JORGETTI, Vanda
    Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorders (CKD-MBD) are associated with increased risk of fracture. Studies report about 3% of fractures in CKD patients, and these occur earlier than in the general population, namely 16 and 13years earlier for men and women, respectively. Better understanding of the pathophysiology offractures would probably contribute to new therapeutic approaches. This study aimed to evaluatereport oflong bone fractures from a bone biopsies bank from patients on hemodialysis and compare clinical and biochemical characteristics, as well as the results of the histomorphometric analysis of trabecular and cortical bone of these patients with a control group (without fractures), paired for age, gender, and time on hemodialysis. Bone proteins (SOST, DMP1 and MEPE) were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Seventeen patients with fracture and controls were studied. Fracture prevalence was 0.82/1000 patients/year. Serum phosphorus levels were significantly lower in the fracture group. Histomorphometric analysis revealed that all the patients had high turnover disease,and the fracture group had smaller volume and trabecular thickness, greater osteoid surface, smaller eroded surface, smaller mineralizing surface, formation rate and longer mineralization lag time when compared to controls; the DMP1 expression in the cortical bone was smaller and the SOST in the trabecular bone was higher in fractured patients. As conclusion, we found low prevalence of fractures. Both groups had high turnover disease, but the fractured ones presentedmore impairedbone microarchitecture, as well as lower formation and greatermineralization defect. Bone proteins expression correlated with parameters involved in bone remodeling.

    Effect of variations in dietary Pi intake on intestinal Pi transporters (NaPi-IIb, PiT-1, and PiT-2) and phosphate-regulating factors (PTH, FGF-23, and MEPE)
    (2018) ANITELI, Tatiana Martins; SIQUEIRA, Flavia Ramos de; REIS, Luciene Machado dos; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner Vasques; OLIVEIRA, Elizabeth Maria Costa de; CASTELUCCI, Patricia; MOYSES, Rosa Maria Affonso; JORGETTI, Vanda
    Hyperphosphatemia is a common condition in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and can lead to bone disease, vascular calcification, and increased risks of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Inorganic phosphate (P-i) is absorbed in the intestine, an important step in the maintenance of homeostasis. In CKD, it is not clear to what extent P-i absorption is modulated by dietary P-i. Thus, we investigated 5/6 nephrectomized (Nx) Wistar rats to test whether acute variations in dietary P-i concentration over 2 days would alter hormones involved in P-i metabolism, expression of sodium-phosphate cotransporters, apoptosis, and the expression of matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE) in different segments of the small intestine. The animals were divided into groups receiving different levels of dietary phosphate: low (Nx/LPi), normal (Nx/NPi), and high (Nx/HPi). Serum phosphate, fractional excretion of phosphate, intact serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23), and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were significantly higher and ionized calcium was significantly lower in the Nx/HPi group than in the Nx/LPi group. The expression levels of NaPi-IIb and PiT-1/2 were increased in the total jejunum mucosa of the Nx/LPi group compared with the Nx/HPi group. Modification of P-i concentration in the diet affected the apoptosis of enterocytes, particularly with P-i overload. MEPE expression was higher in the Nx/HPi group than in the Nx/NPi. These data reveal the importance of early control of P-i in uremia to prevent an increase in serum PTH and FGF-23. Uremia may be a determining factor that explains the expressional modulation of the cotransporters in the small intestine segments.

    Bone Plasticity in Response to Exercise Is Sex-Dependent in Rats
    (2013) VICENTE, Wagner S.; REIS, Luciene M. dos; GRACIOLLI, Rafael G.; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana G.; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; WANG, Charles C.; FONSECA, Tatiana L.; VELOSA, Ana P.; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; TEODORO, Walcy R.; GUALANO, Bruno; JORGETTI, Vanda
    Purpose: To characterize the potential sexual dimorphism of bone in response to exercise. Methods: Young male and female Wistar rats were either submitted to 12 weeks of exercise or remained sedentary. The training load was adjusted at the mid-trial (week 6) by the maximal speed test. A mechanical test was performed to measure the maximal force, resilience, stiffness, and fracture load. The bone structure, formation, and resorption were obtained by histomorphometric analyses. Type I collagen (COL I) mRNA expression and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) mRNA expression were evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Results: The male and female trained rats significantly improved their maximum speed during the maximal exercise test (main effect of training; p<0.0001). The male rats were significantly heavier than the females, irrespective of training (main effect of sex; p<0.0001). Similarly, both the weight and length of the femur were greater for the male rats when compared with the females (main effect of sex; p<0.0001 and p<0.0001, respectively). The trabecular volume was positively affected by exercise in male and female rats (main effect of training; p = 0.001), whereas the trabecular thickness, resilience, mineral apposition rate, and bone formation rate increased only in the trained males (within-sex comparison; p<0.05 for all parameters), demonstrating the sexual dimorphism in response to exercise. Accordingly, the number of osteocytes increased significantly only in the trained males (within-sex comparison; p<0.05). Pearson's correlation analyses revealed that the COL I mRNA expression and TRAP mRNA expression were positively and negatively, respectively, related to the parameters of bone remodeling obtained from the histomorphometric analysis (r = 0.59 to 0.85; p<0.05). Conclusion: Exercise yielded differential adaptations with respect to bone structure, biomechanical proprieties, and molecular signaling in male and female rats.

    ACEI and ARB combination therapy in patients with macroalbuminuric diabetic nephropathy and low socioeconomic level: a double-blind randomized clinical trial
    (2011) TITAN, S. M.; VIEIRA JR., J. M.; DOMINGUEZ, W. V.; BARROS, R. T.; ZATZ, R.
    Objective: The combination of an ACE inhibitor (ACEI) and an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) has been proposed for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy (DN), but doubts remain about its efficacy and safety. We compared the effects of combination therapy and ACEI monotherapy on proteinuria and on three urinary inflammatory cytokines (MCP-1, TGF-beta and VEGF). Design and patients: 56 patients with macro-albuminuric DN received 40 mg/d enalapril for 4 months, followed by add-on 100 mg/d losartan or placebo for another 4 months. The primary and secondary endpoints were reduction of proteinuria and cytokine levels, respectively. Results: Proteinuria did not fall in either group. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed no difference between groups. A high side effect rate was observed (28.5%). Finally, unadjusted logistic regression showed no difference between groups, but after adjustments the risk of worsening proteinuria was higher in the combination therapy group (p = 0.04). The same pattern was observed for urinary MCP-1. Conclusion: These results suggest that 1) in advanced DN with severe proteinuria and poor metabolic control, angiotensin II blockade may be less effective than in other groups of CKD patients. 2) In such patients, combination therapy may not afford superior renoprotection compared to enalapril. 3) Urinary MCP-1 is a promising biomarker for the response to ACEI and/or ARB treatment and for the risk of associated unwanted effects.

    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 Affonso
    Background 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.
