Greater Effect of Dietary Potassium Tripolyphoshate than of Potassium Dihydrogenphosphate on the Nephrocalcinosis and Proximal Tubular Function in Female Rats from the Intake of a High-phosphorus Diet

We examined whether a difference in potassium dihydrogenphosphate (KH₂PO₄) and potassium tripolyphosphate (K₅P₃O₁₀) as dietary phosphorus sources could differentially effect the nephrocalcinosis and proximal tubular function in female rats. Rats were fed on a diet containing KH₂PO₄ or K₅P₃O₁₀, at the normal phosphorus level (normal phosphorus diet) or at a high phosphorus level (high-phosphorus diet) for 21 d. Nephrocalcinosis, as confirmed by a histological examination, was apparent in all rats fed on the high-phosphorus diet, and this condition was more severe in those rats fed on K₅P₃O₁₀ than in those fed on KH₂PO₄. As indicators of the proximal tubular function, the N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase activity in urine and the urinary β₂-microglobulin excretion were significantly increased in those rats fed on the high-phosphorus diet containing K₅P₃O₁₀. These results indicate that the intake of a high-phosphorus diet, more strongly influenced the nephrocalcinosis and proximal tubular function when K₅P₃O₁₀ rather than KH₂PO₄ was used as the dietary phosphorus source.     

Phosphorus-induced nephrocalcinosis in female rats: a study on regression and clinical abnormalities

The question addressed was whether preestablished phosphorus (P)-induced nephrocalcinosis would regress after dietary P restriction. Female rats were fed purified diets containing either 0.2% (w/w) P (low P) or 0.6% P (high P). After 29 days, the high-P diet had caused massive nephrocalcinosis as demonstrated chemically (by the analysis of calcium in kidney) and histologically (by inspection of kidney sections stained for calcium phosphate deposits). Switching rats from the high P to the low P diet did not result in a decrease in the degree of nephrocalcinosis within 91 days. Thus, P-induced nephrocalcinosis may not regress upon subsequent P restriction. Rats that had been fed either the 0.2 or 0.6% P diet for 56 days were examined clinically with respect to 14 selected variables. None of the variables discriminated between rats with or without nephrocalcinosis. This might imply that P-induced nephrocalcinosis in female rats does not cause significant discomfort.     

Nutrition and kidney calcification in rats

Nephrocalcinosis is a 'spontaneous' disorder in rats which refers to the deposition of calcium salts in the kidney, preferably in the cortico-medullary region. Studies using defined, semi-purified diets have shown that low dietary concentrations of magnesium, high concentrations of calcium, high concentrations of phosphorus and low calcium: phosphorus ratios induce kidney calcification. Dietary phosphorus induced nephrocalcinosis in female rats is associated with increased kidney size and weight, tubular hyperplasia, fibrosis and increased excretion of albumin in urine. This suggests that nephrocalcinosis may impair kidney function. In rats fed different commercial diets the incidence of nephrocalcinosis can vary considerably. Differences in the degree of nephrocalcinosis in different experiments may negatively influence the comparability of experimental outcome, especially when this is affected by kidney function and structure. Experimental data are needed so that diets can be formulated that do not produce nephrocalcinosis without inducing other disorders.     

Dietary sodium, potassium and calcium requirements of the house cricket, Acheta domesticus (L.).

1. The optimal level of sodium in an artificial diet for the house cricket was found to be 1126 ppm, of potassium 6487 ppm and of calcium 1366 ppm. 2. The revised salt mixture for the house cricket is 68.02 g NaCl, 120.00 g KCl, 310.00 g KH2PO4, 37.65 g CaHPO4, 53.34 g CaCO3, 90.50 g MgSO4.7H2O, 14.70 g FePO4.4H2O, 0.23 g MnSO4.H2O, 0.55 g ZnCO3 and 0.72 g CnSO4 in a total of 695.71 g salts.     

The effect of the anions, phosphate and sulphate, on normal rates of excretion of potassium in dogs.

Small doses of (NH4)2HPO4 or KH2PO4 by stomach tube caused increase in plasma PO4 and PO4 excretion. Above a threshold of 0-8 mmol. 1(-1), increase of plasma PO4 by 0-5 mmol. 1(-1) caused PO4 excretion to increase by about 35 mumol. min.-1 After KH2PO4 this relationship was not altered by the concurrent increases in plasma K and K excretion. After doses of (NH4)2SO4 or K2SO4, excretion of SO4 was similarly related to plasma SO4 and was independent of plasma K and K excretion. An effect of PO4 on K excretion was observed after doses of (NH4)2HPO4, when increased excretion of PO4 was accompanied by increased excretion of K without change in plasma K. There was also increased excretion of NH4 and a small increase in Na excretion. The changes were similar to those produced by (NH4)2SO4 [O'Connor and Summerill, 1976]. KH2PO4 and K2SO4 produced increase in plasma K and increased excretion of K not significantly different from the changes produced by KCl or KHCO3 [Baylis and O'Connor, 1976]. After KH2PO2 or K2SO4, the urinary anion was PO4 or SO4, instead of Cl and HCO3. Any effect of anions on K excretion was much less than the effect of increase in plasma K. At low rates of excretion of K, increased urinary excretion of impermeant anion can determine increased excretion of K. However, the effect of anion is small in comparison with the effect of increase in plasma K.     

High dietary potassium chloride intake augments rat renal mineralocorticoid receptor selectivity via 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase

Glucocorticoid access to renal corticosteroid receptors is regulated by 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (11beta-HSDs), converting 11beta-hydroxyglucocorticoids into inactive 11-ketones. This mechanism plays a key role in maintaining normal salt-water homeostasis and blood pressure. To study whether renal cortical proximal and distal tubular 11beta-HSDs are modulated, upon shifting the electrolyte status (and may thereby contribute to adjusting the salt-water homeostasis), rats were treated for 14 days with diets with low (0.058 w/w%), normal (0.58%, which is the KCl content of standard European laboratory rat food) or high (5.8%) potassium chloride content. In proximal tubules, dietary KCl had no effect regarding corticosterone 11beta-oxidation in intact cells as well as 11beta-HSD1 and 11beta-HSD2 protein (Western blotting) and mRNA levels (semi-quantitative RT-PCR). In distal tubules, the low KCl diet also had no effect. However, distal tubules of rats fed the high KCl diet showed increased corticosterone 11beta-oxidation rates (1.6-fold, P<0.01) and 11beta-HSD2 protein (4-fold, P<0.01), whereas 11beta-HSD1 protein was decreased (no longer detected, P<0.05). Distal tubular 11beta-HSD mRNA levels were not changed upon dietary treatment. Our results suggest that upon dietary KCl loading distal tubular mineralocorticoid receptor selectivity for aldosterone is increased because of enhanced corticosterone 11beta-oxidation. This may contribute to the fine-tuning of salt-water homeostasis by the kidney.     

Effect of various chloride salts on the utilization of phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium

Only part of the effect of dietary protein on urinary calcium excretion can be ascribed to sulfur amino acids. We hypothesized that chloride, another factor often associated with isolated proteins, and another amino acid, lysine, affect utilization of calcium. The effects of supplemental dietary chloride, inorganic or organic, on calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium utilization were studied in two rat studies. Weanling Sprague-Dawley rats were fed semi-purified diets that contained moderate (1.8 mg Cl/g diet) or supplemental (15.5 mg Cl/g diet) chloride as sodium chloride, potassium chloride, or lysine monohydrochloride with or without calcium carbonate for 56 or 119 days. Rats fed supplemental sodium chloride or potassium chloride had higher urinary phosphorus excretion, more efficient phosphorus absorption, but unchanged tissue phosphorus levels after 7 and 16 weeks of dietary treatment as compared to rats fed moderate chloride. Rats fed supplemental sodium chloride or potassium chloride excreted more calcium in urine at 7 weeks and absorbed calcium less efficiently at 16 weeks. Tissue calcium concentrations were unaffected, but total tibia magnesium and plasma magnesium concentrations were lower in rats fed supplemental sodium chloride or potassium chloride than those fed moderate chloride. Lysine chloride with or without additional calcium elevated urinary calcium excretion even more than sodium chloride and potassium chloride ingestion. Rats fed lysine chloride with supplemental calcium had smaller apparent absorption and urinary losses of phosphorus and magnesium after 16 weeks and lower tibia and plasma magnesium concentrations than rats fed lysine chloride.     

Influence of diet on the development of nephrocalcinosis in the rat

A histological examination of the effect of a purified diet containing 20% alpha protein (an alkali-treated soyprotein) on the development of nephrocalcinosis induced by intraperitoneal injections of 0.5 neutral (pH 7.4) sodium phosphate was carried out in female weanling rats. Animals that were fed a standard commercial laboratory diet and given daily injections of phosphate for six or ten days developed a form of nephrocalcinosis that consisted mainly of intraluminal (intratubular) calcification at the junction of the outer and inner stripes of the outer medulla and in the inner stripe of the outer medulla. By contrast, rats that were fed the alpha protein diet and given injections of phosphate for six or ten days developed a form of nephrocalcinosis that was characterized primarily by a type of tubular basement membrane calcification at the junction of the inner stripe of the outer medulla and the inner medulla. The differences in nephrocalcinosis between the two dietary groups and the fact that an alpha protein diet by itself can cause renal calcification, leads to the suggestion that some component(s) or factor(s) in the alpha protein diet strongly influence(s) the development of nephrocalcinosis induced by injected neutral sodium phosphate.     

High and low dietary potassium effects on rat vascular sodium pump activity

Studies of renal and other tissues suggest that chronic elevation or reduction of dietary potassium intake could affect vascular smooth muscle sodium pump (Na-pump) activity. To examine this possibility, the effects of 3 weeks of low (LK: 4 mmole KCl/kg chow), normal (NK; 162 mmole/kg), and high (HK; 1350 mmole/kg) dietary potassium intake on Na-pump activity, the Na-pump activity response to changes in extracellular potassium concentration, and Na-pump site density were determined in tail arteries of rats. Plasma potassium concentration was elevated by 21% in HK rats and reduced by 45% in LK rats. When incubated in autologous plasma, compared to arteries from NK rats, Na-pump activity was decreased in the tail arteries from LK rats but not altered in those from HK rats. When arteries from NK and LK rats were incubated in autologous plasma with the potassium concentration increased to equal that of the HK rats, Na-pump activity exceeded that of HK rat arteries: Na-pump activity of arteries incubated in autologous plasma did not differ from that of arteries incubated in Krebs-Henseleit buffer with the potassium concentration adjusted to equal that of the plasma. Tail artery Na-pump activity for all three dietary potassium groups increased as potassium concentration of the incubation medium was increased from 1 to 12 mM; Na-pump activity was similar for the NK and LK rats at all potassium concentrations, but Na-pump activity of HK rat arteries was less than that of NK arteries at high extracellular potassium concentrations. Na-pump site density was not altered by either HK or LK diet. It is concluded that in tail arteries of rats fed the LK diet, chronically decreased extracellular potassium results in chronically decreased Na-pump activity. In contrast, an adaptive change occurs in tail arteries of rats fed HK diet, such that Na-pump activity remains at normal levels despite elevated extracellular potassium; this adaptive response to chronically increased dietary potassium does not appear to be the result of decreased Na-pump site density.

Eicosanoid synthesis and ornithine decarboxylase activity in mammary tumors of rats fed varying levels and types of N-3 and/or N-6 fatty acids

Virgin female Sprague-Dawley rats (50 days of age) were administered a single intragastric 10 mg dose of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a) anthracene (DMBA). Three weeks later they were placed on diets containing either 20% corn oil (CO), 20% primrose oil (PO), 20% black currant seed oil (BCO), 20% borage oil (BO), 15% menhaden oil plus 5% corn oil (15% MO + 5% CO), 10% menhaden oil plus 10% corn oil (10% MO + 10% CO), 5% menhaden oil plus 15% corn oil (5% MO + 15% CO) or 10% menhaden oil plus 10% borage oil (10% MO + 10% BO). Incidences of mammary tumors at 16 weeks post-DMBA were 80% in rats fed the CO diet, 84% in rats fed PO diet, 67% in rats fed BCO diet, 88% in rats fed BO diet, 60% in rats fed 15% MO + 5% CO diet, 67% in rats fed 10% MO + 10% CO diet, 83% in rats fed 5% MO + 15% CO diet, and 92% in rats fed 10% MO + 10% BO diet. Tumor multiplicity was lowest in PO-fed rats and highest in BO-fed rats. The tumor burden per tumor-bearing rat was lowest in rats fed the 15% MO + 5% CO, and 10% MO + 10% CO, diets and highest in those fed 20% BCO diet. Although body weight at 16 weeks post DMBA was not significantly different among the dietary groups, food intake was significantly greater in rats fed a diet containing 20% BO, or 5% MO + 15% CO.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Phophate-induced renal calcification in the rat.

Studies were done to investigate nephrocalcinosis produced in weanling female Wistar rats fed pelleted, semisynthetic diets. The rats were fed diets varying in concentrations of Ca and P supplied as inorganic salts for periods of 4--6 weeks and results compared with control rats fed laboratory rodent chow for the same period of time. Measurement of renal Ca and P concentrations showed that nephrocalcinosis was produced by semisynthetic diets with inorganic phosphate concentrations as low as 0.5% on a weight basis; in contrast, rats fed regular laboratory chow (P = 0.72%) showed no evidence of nephrocalcinosis. The severity of the lesion was proportional to dietary phosphate concentrations from 0.5 to 1.0% but other dietary factors modified the severity of the lesion. With the lower dietary phosphate of 0.5%, increasing dietary Ca from 0.5 to 1.0% decreased the severity of the renal calcification. Decreasing protein concentrations from 25 to 15% casein increased the severity of the renal lesions. Other dietary factors also appear to modify the phosphate-induced nephrocalcinosis since no lesions occurred in rats on laboratory chow. It is suggested that the availability of dietary phosphate may be a factor. The phosphate in the semisynthetic diets was totally inorganic while the natural foods of laboratory chow contain, at least in part, organic phosphate.     

Effect of age and dietary protein level on tissue mineral levels in female rats

Mineral (phosphorus, sulfur, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, and manganese) concentrations were measured in plasma, and several tissues from female Wistar rats (young: 3-wk-old; mature: 6-mo-old) were fed on a dietary regimen designed to study the combined or singular effects of age and dietary protein on mineral status. Three diets, respectively, contained 5, 15, and 20% of bovine milk casein. Nephrocalcinosis chemically diagnosed by increased calcium and phosphorus in kidney was prevented in rats fed a 5% protein diet. Renal calcium and phosphorus were more accumulated in young rats than mature rats. A 5% protein diet decreased hemoglobin and blood iron. The hepatic and splenic iron was increased by a 5% protein diet in mature rats but was not altered in young rats. Mature rats had higher iron in brain, lung, heart, liver, spleen, kidney, muscle, and tibia than young rats. A 5% protein diet decreased zinc in plasma and liver. Zinc in tibia was increased with dietary protein level in young rats but was not changed in mature rats. A 5% protein diet decreased copper concentration in plasma of young rats but not in mature rats. Mature rats had higher copper in plasma, blood, brain, lung, heart, liver, spleen, and kidney than young rats. With age, manganese concentration was increased in brain but decreased in lung, heart, liver, kidney, and muscle. These results suggest that the response to dietary protein regarding mineral status varies with age.     

Vitamin D, within its range of fluctuation in commercial rat diets, does not influence nephrocalcinogenesis in female rats.

Massive, toxic doses of vitamin D have been shown to cause nephrocalcinosis in rats, but the effect of this vitamin within its range of fluctuation in commercial rat diets was unknown. Therefore, in two experiments with young female rats, the effect on nephrocalcinosis of a moderately increased level of vitamin D in the diet was studied, that is 5000 IU/kg versus the recommended concentration of 1000 IU/kg. This was done using purified diets with 0.5% (w/w) calcium and 0.04% magnesium containing either 0.2 or 0.6% phosphorus (P). Rats fed the diets containing 0.6% P showed severe kidney calcification compared to those fed the 0.2%-P diets. The level of vitamin D in the 0.2 and 0.6%-P diets did not affect kidney calcification. Bone density was increased after feeding diets containing 5000 instead of 1000 IU of vitamin D/kg. This study suggests that, within 28 days, a moderate increase of the amount of vitamin D in the diet has no influence on the development of kidney calcification. This in turn suggests that the variation in nephrocalcinosis severity and incidence seen in practice in rats fed different commercial diets is unlikely to be related to the different vitamin D concentrations in these diets. However, in rats fed such diets bone metabolism may be influenced differently.     

Renal tubular sites of increased phosphate transport and NaPi-2 expression in the juvenile rat

To determine the tubular sites and mechanisms involved in enhanced renal phosphate (P(i)) reabsorption seen in the juvenile animal, renal micropuncture experiments were performed in acutely thyroparathyroidectomized adult (>14 wk old) and juvenile (4 wk old) male Wistar rats fed either a normal P(i) diet (NPD, 0.6% P(i)) or low P(i) diet (0.07% P(i)) for 2 days, in the presence and absence of parathyroid hormone (PTH). P(i) reabsorption was greater in proximal convoluted (PCT) and straight tubules (PST) of the juvenile compared with adult rats fed NPD, whether or not PTH was present. These findings were consistent with a greater P(i) uptake in brush-border membrane (BBM) vesicles from both superficial (SC) and outer juxtamedullary (JMC) cortices of juvenile animals. Western blot analysis revealed a 2- and 1.8-fold higher amount of NaPi-2 protein in the SC and JMC, respectively, in juvenile rats. Immunofluorescence microscopy also indicated that NaPi-2 protein expression was present in the proximal tubule (PT) BBM to a greater extent in juvenile rats. Dietary P(i) restriction in juvenile rats resulted in a significant increase in P(i) reabsorption in the PCT and PST segments. NaPi-2 expression in the PT BBM was also increased, as was the expression of intracellular NaPi-2 protein. These studies indicate that P(i) reabsorption in both the PCT and PST segments of the renal tubule contributes to the attenuated response to PTH in the normal juvenile animal. In addition, dietary P(i) restriction in the juvenile rat upregulates BBM NaPi-2 expression, which is associated with a further increase in proximal tubular P(i) reabsorption.     

Role of dietary phosphorus in the progression of renal failure

Dietary phosphorus is thought to be a factor that impairs the residual renal function in patients with chronic renal failure. To determine the effect of dietary phosphorus on the prognosis of chronic renal failure, low-phosphorus milk was prepared from normal cow's milk using boehmite, a synthetic phosphate-ion absorbent. Regular diet, normal cow's milk, and low-phosphorus milk were then given to 5/6-nephrectomized rats and the serum levels of inorganic phosphorus, calcium, creatinine, and blood urine nitrogen in the rats in each group were compared. The serum levels of inorganic phosphorus and calcium were not different among the groups, despite a significant difference in phosphorus intakes. On the other hand, serum levels of creatinine (Cr) and blood urine nitrogen (BUN) in the rats fed low-phosphorus milk were significantly lower (Cr, 0.54+/-0.054mg/dl; BUN, 29.2+/-3.90mg/dl) than those in the rats fed a regular diet (Cr, 0.64+/-0.057mg/dl; BUN, 37.4+/-3.55mg/dl) or normal milk (Cr, 0.61+/-0.040mg/dl; BUN, 34.5+/-3.59mg/dl). No beneficial effect of protein restriction was observed when residual renal functions in rats fed a regular diet and those fed normal milk were compared. The results suggest that dietary phosphorus plays a major role in the progression of renal failure.     

Insulin secretion and glucose uptake in hypomagnesemic sheep fed a low magnesium, high potassium diet

Hyperglycemic and euglycemic clamp experiments were conducted to evaluate insulin secretion and glucose uptake in the hypomagnesemic sheep fed a low magnesium (Mg), high potassium (K) diet. Five mature sheep were fed a semipurified diet containing 0.24% Mg and 0.56% K (control diet) and five were fed 0.04% Mg and 3.78% K (low Mg/high K diet) for at least 2 weeks. In the hyperglycemic clamp experiment, plasma glucose concentrations were raised and maintained at a hyperglycemic steady-state (approximately 130 mg/100 ml) by variable rates of glucose infusion during the experimental period (120 minutes). The insulin response in the sheep fed the low Mg/high K diet (31.0 microU/ml) were significantly (P < 0.01) lower than those (111.7 microU/ml) of the sheep fed the control diet. In the euglycemic clamp experiment, insulin was infused at rates of 5, 10, 15, or 20 mU/kg/min, each followed by variable rates of glucose infusion to maintain a euglycemic steady-state (basal fasting levels). Hypomagnesemic sheep fed the low Mg/high K diet had significantly (P < 0.01) lower mean glucose disposal (3.72 mg/kg/min) across the insulin infusion rates compared with those of the sheep fed the control diet (5.37 mg/kg/min). These results suggest that glucose-induced insulin secretion and insulin-induced glucose uptake would be depressed in hypomagnesemic sheep and are caused by feeding the low Mg/high K diet.     

Salt-induced ANG II suppression impairs the response of cerebral artery smooth muscle cells to prostacyclin

Recent studies have demonstrated that cerebral arteries from rats fed a high-salt (HS) diet exhibit impaired vasodilation and altered electrophysiological response to reduction in PO2. The present study examined whether an increase in salt intake alters the response of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) to prostacyclin, a crucial mediator of hypoxic dilation in cerebral arteries. VSMC were isolated from cerebral arteries of male Sprague-Dawley rats maintained on an HS (4% NaCl) or a low-salt diet (0.4% NaCl) for 3 days. The stable prostacyclin analog iloprost (10 ng/ml) inhibited serotonin (0.1-10 microM)-induced contractions and the increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in VSMC isolated from arteries of animals fed the low-salt diet. In contrast, iloprost had no effect on serotonin-induced contractions and increases in [Ca2+]i in VSMC isolated from arteries of rats fed the HS diet. Preventing the fall in ANG in rats fed the HS diet by infusion of a low dose of ANG II (5 ng.kg(-1).min(-1) i.v.) restored the inhibitory effect of iloprost on serotonin-induced contractions and increases in [Ca2+]i in VSMC from animals fed the HS diet. These effects were reversed by AT1 receptor blockade with losartan. These results indicate that ANG II suppression secondary to elevated dietary salt intake impairs vascular relaxation and Ca2+ regulation by prostacyclin.

Diet-induced nephrocalcinosis and urinary excretion of albumin in female rats

This study was carried out to test the hypothesis that diet-induced nephrocalcinosis causes enhanced loss of albumin in urine, irrespective of the composition of the nephrocalcinogenic diet. Female rats were fed various purified diets for 28 days. There was a control diet (0.5% Ca, 0.04% Mg, 0.4% P, 15.1% protein, wt/wt), a low Mg (0.01% Mg), a high protein (30.2% protein) and a high P diet (0.6% P). The low Mg and high P diet induced nephrocalcinosis as demonstrated histologically and by markedly increased concentrations of kidney Ca. In rats fed the high protein diet, nephrocalcinosis was essentially absent. Group mean values of urinary excretion of albumin and plasma concentrations of urea were increased in rats fed either the low Mg or high P diet. The high protein diet did not affect urinary albumin but caused lysozymuria which was not seen in the other groups. Plasma urea was increased in rats fed the high protein diet. In individual rats, the concentration of Ca in kidney and urinary albumin excretion were positively correlated. It is suggested that nephrocalcinosis in female rats induced by either low Mg or high P intake causes kidney damage which in turn leads to increased concentrations of albumin in urine and urea in plasma.
