This report describes a 75-year-old Caucasian man with extensive urate deposits and severe gouty arthropathy that confined him to a wheelchair. Since age 50, he suffered multiple acute gout flares and progressive deformities in his hands, feet, knees, and elbows (tophi). Serum creatinine was 1.4 mg/dL and serum urate 9.4 mg/dL. Conditions known to increase uric acid production (psoriasis, chronic bronchitis) and to decrease uric acid excretion (hypothyroidism, metabolic syndrome, and nephroangiosclerosis) may operate in a single patient, illustrating the dramatic clinical course of untreated gout. 相似文献

Forty-four patients (40 males) with a mean age of 58 years were included in this pilot study. Mean serum urate concentration in patients with and without the metabolic syndrome (MS) was 8.8 mg/dL and 8.1 mg/dL, respectively. Urinary uric acid excretion was 543 mg/day/1.73m2 in the former and 609 mg/day/1.73m2 in the latter. Uric acid to creatinine ratio was 0.37 mg/mg in patients with the MS and 0.42 mg/mg in those without the MS. Mean serum urate increased from 8.6 mg/dL in subjects with three or more MS components to 10.3 mg/dL in those with five MS components. Serum urate was markedly lower in patients with mild MS (9 patients, 8.6 mg/dL) as compared to severe MS (10 patients, 9.2 mg/dL). In contrast, urinary uric acid to creatinine ratio was 0.42 mg/mg in patients with gout and mild MS and 0.33 mg/mg in gout patients with severe MS. Uric acid underexcretion appears to be more severe in gout patients with the MS. This disturbance appears to be related to the severity of the MS. 相似文献

Background and Objectives. Primary gout has traditionally been associated with obesity, arterial hypertension, and abnormal lipid and glucose homeostasis, but we do not know the prevalence of these vascular risk factors in patients with primary gout from a Mediterranean country. Patients and Method. All patients with primary gout and 2 or more acute arthritis episodes documented by a physician were selected for the study. The diagnosis of MS required ≥3 criteria (ATP III). Patients were classified in two groups: decreased (underexcretors) and normal (normoexcretors) uric acid excretion related to serum urate levels. Results. One hundred and four patients (mean age, 59 years; 100 males) with primary gout were included in the study. MS was diagnosed in 38 subjects (37%). The most frequent triad defining MS was an increased waist circumference, blood pressure, and trygliceride levels. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) was significantly higher in patients with the MS (21/38, 55%) as compared with subjects without the MS (3/66, 5%; p < 0.001). Mean serum urate level in patients with and without MS was identical (8.1 mg/dL), but mean 24-hour uric acid excretion was significantly lower in the former than in the latter (444 ± 110 mg/24-hour/1,73 m2 versus 546 ± 221 mg/day/1,73 m2; p = 0.009). Conclusions. The condition of the MS occurs in about one-third of the patients with primary gout. Increased waist circumference, blood pressure, and triglycerides levels is the most frequent MS triad. Diminished urinary uric acid excretion is more severe in gout patients with the MS. 相似文献

Background and Objectives. Pharmacologic urate lowering therapy (ULT), at full maintenance doses, has been associated with acute gout arthritis (in up to 80% of patients). The American College of Rheumatology has recently advocated gradually titrating the maintenance dose upward to chosen serum urate target. Few studies have examined the efficacy and safety of a ULT in primary gout. Patients and Methods. The ULT regimen examined included allopurinol (50 mg/day, with increases of 50 mg/month up to 300 mg/day) and colchicine, as prophylaxis to prevent acute gouty attacks. The efficacy and safety of this regimen was examined in 42 patients in whom allopurinol was withheld for ≥3 months and restarted after this assessment and followed up for 12 months. The efficacy and safety of the ULT regimen was related to the serum urate decrease and to the incidence of acute gout flares, respectively. Results. Fifty-nine patients (mean age 59 years, 56 men) with primary gout received the gradually titrated ULT regimen. Baseline serum urate was (mean ± SD) 8.4 ± 0.8 mg/dL. At 3, 6, 9, and 12 months serum urate fell by a mean of 1.8, 2.5, 2.7, and 2.5 mg/dL, respectively (p < 0.001). A serum urate level <6.0 mg/dL was achieved by 38/59 (64%) patients. During the 12 months following the start of the ULT we documented 10 acute arthritis episodes (17% of patients). Conclusions. A gradually titrated hypouricemic regimen for 6 months in patients with primary gout appears to be effective and safe. 相似文献

Background
Urate is a natural antioxidant and may prevent CNS tissue damage and the clinical manifestations of experimental autoimmune encephalitis. Results from clinical studies are conflicting and the contribution of urate to the pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) remains uncertain.Objective
To evaluate serum urate levels in MS patients and their relationships with clinical, demographic and MRI variables.Methods
Levels of non-fasting serum uric acid and creatinine were determined by an automated enzymatic assay and glomerular filtration rate was assessed in 245 MS patients, in 252 age/sex-matched neurological controls (NC) and in 59 Healthy controls (HC).Results
Median serum urate levels did not differ between MS patients (3.8 mg/dL), HC (4.0 mg/dl) and NC (4.0 mg/dL). Serum urate levels were lower in females than in males in all groups (p = <0.0001). In female-MS, serum urate levels (3.2 mg/dL) were lower compared to those in female HC (3.8; p = 0.01) and NC (3.5 mg/dL; p = 0.02), whereas in male-MS they(4.8 mg/dL) did not differ from those in male HC (4.5 mg/dl) and NC (4.8 mg/dL). Urate concentrations trended to be lower in Clinically isolated syndromes suggestive of MS (3.7 mg/dL) and in relapsing MS (3.7 mg/dL), compared to patients with progressive MS (4.4 mg/dL; p = 0.06), and in patients with an annual relapse rate (ARR) >2 (3.3 mg/dL) than in those with an ARR ≤2: 3.9 mg/dL; p = 0.05). Significant lower serum urate levels were found in females than in males in all clinical MS subtypes (p<0.01), separately evaluated. Female sex (beta: −0.53; p<0.00001) was the most significant determinant of serum urate concentrations in MS patients on multivariate regression analysis.Conclusions
Our findings suggest that low urate levels could be of significance in predominantly inflammatory phases of MS even at the early stage and mainly in females. 相似文献6.
Allopurinol (4-hydroxypyrazolo (3,4-d)-pyrimidine) is a potent xanthine oxidase inhibitor which inhibits the oxidation of naturally occurring oxypurines, thus decreasing uric acid formation. The clinical and metabolic effects of this agent were studied in 80 subjects with primary and secondary gout and other disorders of uric acid metabolism. Allopurinol has been universally successful in lowering the serum uric acid concentration and uric acid excretion to normal levels, while not significantly affecting the clearance of urate or other aspects of renal function. Oxypurine excretion increased concomitantly with the fall in urine uric acid. The agent is particularly valuable in the management of problems of gout with azotemia, acute uric acid nephropathy and uric acid urolithiasis. The minor side effects, clinical indications and theoretical complications are discussed. 相似文献

Serum uric acid levels are maintained by urate synthesis and excretion. URAT1 (coded by SLC22CA12) was recently proposed to be the major absorptive urate transporter protein in the kidney regulating blood urate levels. Because genetic background is known to affect serum urate levels, we hypothesized that genetic variations in SLC22A12 may predispose humans to hyperuricemia and gout. We investigated rs893006 polymorphism (GG, GT and TT) in SLC22A12 in a total of 326 Japanese subjects. Differences in clinical characteristics among the genotype groups were tested by the analysis of variance (ANOVA). In male subjects, mean serum uric acid levels were significantly different among the three genotypes. Levels in the GG genotype subjects were the highest, followed by those with the GT and TT genotypes. However, no differences between the groups were seen in the distributions of creatinine, Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HbA(1c), total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL cholesterol levels or BMI. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the urate transporter gene SLC22CA12 was found to be associated with elevated serum uric acid levels among Japanese subjects. This SNP may be an independent genetic marker for predicting hyperuricemia. 相似文献

Although dietary, genetic, or disease-related excesses in urate production may contribute to hyperuricemia, impaired renal excretion of uric acid is the dominant cause of hyperuricemia in the majority of patients with gout. The aims of this review are to highlight exciting and clinically pertinent advances in our understanding of how uric acid is reabsorbed by the kidney under the regulation of urate transporter (URAT)1 and other recently identified urate transporters; to discuss urate-lowering agents in clinical development; and to summarize the limitations of currently available antihyperuricemic drugs. The use of uricosuric drugs to treat hyperuricemia in patients with gout is limited by prior urolothiasis or renal dysfunction. For this reason, our discussion focuses on the development of the novel xanthine oxidase inhibitor febuxostat and modified recombinant uricase preparations. 相似文献

PEG-modified recombinant mammalian urate oxidase (PEG-uricase) is being developed as a treatment for patients with chronic gout who are intolerant of, or refractory to, available therapy for controlling hyperuricemia. In an open-label phase I trial, single subcutaneous injections of PEG-uricase (4 to 24 mg) were administered to 13 such subjects (11 had tophaceous gout), whose plasma uric acid concentration (pUAc) was 11.3 +/- 2.1 mg/dl (mean +/- SD). By day seven after injection of PEG-uricase, pUAc had declined by an average of 7.9 mg/dl and had normalized in 11 subjects, whose mean pUAc decreased to 2.8 +/- 2.2 mg/dl. At doses of 8, 12, and 24 mg, the mean pUAc at 21 days after injection remained no more than 6 mg/dl. In eight subjects, plasma uricase activity was still measurable at 21 days after injection (half-life 10.5 to 19.9 days). In the other five subjects, plasma uricase activity could not be detected beyond ten days after injection; this was associated with the appearance of relatively low-titer IgM and IgG antibodies against PEG-uricase. Unexpectedly, these antibodies were directed against PEG itself rather than the uricase protein. Three PEG antibody-positive subjects had injection-site reactions at 8 to 9 days after injection. Gout flares in six subjects were the only other significant adverse reactions, and PEG-uricase was otherwise well tolerated. A prolonged circulating life and the ability to normalize plasma uric acid in markedly hyperuricemic subjects suggest that PEG-uricase could be effective in depleting expanded tissue stores of uric acid in subjects with chronic or tophaceous gout. The development of anti-PEG antibodies, which may limit efficacy in some patients, is contrary to the general assumption that PEG is non-immunogenic. PEG immunogenicity deserves further investigation, because it has potential implications for other PEGylated therapeutic agents in clinical use. 相似文献

Gout is a common disease caused by hyperuricemia, which shows elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels. From a viewpoint of urate handling in humans, gout patients can be divided into those with renal overload (ROL) gout with intestinal urate underexcretion, and those with renal underexcretion (RUE) gout. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) revealed an association between SUA and a variant in human monocarboxylate transporter 9 (MCT9/SLC16A9) gene. Although the function of MCT9 remains unclear, urate is mostly excreted via intestine and kidney where MCT9 expression is observed. In this study, we investigated the relationship between a variant of MCT9 and gout in 545 patients and 1,115 healthy volunteers. A missense variant of MCT9 (K258T), rs2242206, significantly increased the risk of ROL gout (p = 0.012), with odds ratio (OR) of 1.28, although it revealed no significant association with all gout cases (p = 0.10), non-ROL gout cases (p = 0.83), and RUE gout cases (p = 0.34). In any case groups and the control group, minor allele frequencies of rs2242206 were >0.40. Therefore, rs2242206 is a common missense variant and is revealed to have an association with ROL gout, indicating that rs2242206 relates to decreased intestinal urate excretion rather than decreased renal urate excretion. Our study provides clues to better understand the pathophysiology of gout as well as the physiological roles of MCT9. 相似文献

Hyperuricemia has been recognized as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Urate stimulates NADPH oxidase and induces production of reactive oxygen species (ROS); consequently, intracellular urate accumulation can induce oxidative stress leading to endothelial dysfunction. Here, we studied the mechanism involved, using human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) as a model. Pretreatment with 15 mg/dL unlabeled uric acid (corresponding to hyperuricemia) resulted in increased uptake of [14C]uric acid at steady-state by HUVEC, whereas pretreatment with 5 mg/dL uric acid (in the normal serum concentration range) did not. However, the initial uptake rate of [14C]uric acid was not affected by uric acid at either concentration. These results suggest that efflux transport of uric acid is decreased under hyperuricemic conditions. We observed a concomitant decrease of phosphorylated endothelial nitric oxide synthase. Plasma membrane expression of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), a uric acid efflux transporter, was decreased under hyperuricemia, though the total cellular expression of BCRP remained constant. Uric acid did not affect expression of another uric acid efflux transporter, multidrug resistance associated protein 4 (MRP4). Moreover, phosphorylation of Akt, which regulates plasma membrane localization of BCRP, was decreased. These uric acid-induced changes of BCRP and Akt were reversed in the presence of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. These results suggest that in hyperuricemia, uric acid-induced ROS generation inhibits Akt phosphorylation, causing a decrease in plasma membrane localization of BCRP, and the resulting decrease of BCRP-mediated efflux leads to increased uric acid accumulation and dysregulation of endothelial function. 相似文献

The characteristic phenomena of acute gouty arthritis are acute arthritis in a middle-aged male, associated with serum uric acid above 6 mg. per 100 cc. and a satisfactory response to colchicine. Roentgenographically observable changes do not occur early.In recent years uric acid metabolism has been studied by means of isotope techniques utilizing labeled substances. Uric acid is excreted in relatively constant amounts by humans and is little affected by variations in dietary intake, except for purine or nucleic acid substances. Persons with gout have a greater total amount of uric acid and a lower turnover than normal persons.In the treatment of acute attacks of gout colchicine is still the most practical single drug, even though its pharmacologic action remains unknown.Benemid (probenecid) is a powerful uricosuric agent of low toxicity which has been subjected to extensive clinical trial for three years. It causes inhibition of the resorption of urate from the glomerular filtrate; the site of action is believed to be the tubular cells. The author''s usual dose is 2 gm. a day. This has caused a lowering of the uric acid in the serum and an increase in the urinary output. 相似文献

痛风是由高尿酸血症引发的一种常见炎性关节炎,受遗传因素和环境因素共同作用。早期研究表明,PRPS1和HPRT1等单基因稀有突变会引起嘌呤合成代谢紊乱,从而引发高尿酸血症和痛风。近年来,全基因组关联分析(Genome-wide association studies,GWAS)已检出多个导致高尿酸血症和痛风的易感位点及相关候选基因。其中SLC2A9、SLC22A11和SLC22A12基因功能缺失性突变可引起遗传性低尿酸血症,而过表达则会加强尿酸的重吸收。ABCG2、SLC17A1和SLC17A3基因功能缺陷型变异会降低肾脏和肠道对尿酸的排泄量。因此,诱发尿酸排泄障碍(高重吸收和低排泄)的基因变异是影响高尿酸血症和痛风的主要遗传因素。另外,抑制-激活生长因子系统、转录因子、细胞骨架以及基因和环境的互作等因素也一定程度影响血液尿酸水平。在中国汉族人群中,两个新发现的易感基因RFX3和KCNQ1可能造成免疫应答受损和胰岛B细胞功能缺陷,从而直接或间接引起高尿酸酸血症和痛风。本文系统综述了高尿酸血症和痛风的遗传学研究,以促进人们对高尿酸血症和痛风发病机理的理解。 相似文献

The association between serum ferritin and uric acid in humans 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
OBJECTIVE: Urate forms a coordination complex with Fe(3+) which does not support electron transport. The only enzymatic source of urate is xanthine oxidoreductase. If a major purpose of xanthine oxidoreductase is the production of urate to function as an iron chelator and antioxidant, a system for coupling the activity of this enzyme to the availability of catalytically-active metal would be required. We tested the hypothesis that there is an association between iron availability and urate production in healthy humans by correlating serum concentrations of ferritin with uric acid levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study population included 4932 females and 4794 males in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III. They were 20 years of age or older and in good health. RESULTS: Serum concentrations of ferritin correlated positively with uric acid levels in healthy individuals (R(2) = 0.41, p<0.001). This association was independent of an effect of gender, age, race/ethnic group, body mass, and alcohol consumption. CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between serum ferritin and uric acid predicts hyperuricemia and gout in groups with iron accumulation. This elevation in the production of uric acid with increased concentrations of iron could possibly reflect a response of the host to diminish the oxidative stress presented by available metal as the uric acid assumes the empty or loosely bound coordination sites of the iron to diminish electron transport and subsequent oxidant generation. 相似文献

Hyperuricemia is caused by hepatic overproduction of uric acid and/or underexcretion of urate from the kidneys and small intestine. Although increased intake of citrus fruits, a fructose-rich food, is associated with increased risk of gout in humans, hesperidin, a flavonoid naturally present in citrus fruits, reportedly reduces serum uric acid (SUA) levels by inhibiting xanthine oxidase (XOD) activity in rats. However, the effects of hesperidin on renal and intestinal urate excretion were previously unknown. In this study, we used glucosyl hesperidin (GH), which has greater bioavailability than hesperidin, to clarify comprehensive mechanisms underlying the hypouricemic effects of hesperidin in vivo. GH dose-dependently decreased SUA levels in mice with hyperuricemia induced by potassium oxonate and a fructose-rich diet, and inhibited XOD activity in the liver. GH decreased renal urate excretion without changes in kidney URAT1, ABCG2 or GLUT9 expressions, suggesting that reducing uric acid pool size by inhibiting XOD decreased renal urate excretion. We also found that GH had no effect on intestinal urate excretion or protein expression of ABCG2. Therefore, we concluded that GH exhibits a hypouricemic effect by inhibiting XOD activity in the liver without increasing renal or intestinal urate excretion. Of note, this is the first study to elucidate the effect of a flavonoid on intestinal urate excretion using a mice model, whose findings should prove useful in future food science research in the area of urate metabolism. Taking these findings together, GH may be useful for preventing hyperuricemia, especially in people with the overproduction type. 相似文献

Completing the uric acid degradation pathway through phylogenetic comparison of whole genomes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mammals that degrade uric acid are not affected by gout or urate kidney stones. It is not fully understood how they convert uric acid into the much more soluble allantoin. Until recently, it had long been thought that urate oxidase was the only enzyme responsible for this conversion. However, detailed studies of the mechanism and regiochemistry of urate oxidation have called this assumption into question, suggesting the existence of other distinct enzymatic activities. Through phylogenetic genome comparison, we identify here two genes that share with urate oxidase a common history of loss or gain events. We show that the two proteins encoded by mouse genes catalyze two consecutive steps following urate oxidation to 5-hydroxyisourate (HIU): hydrolysis of HIU to give 2-oxo-4-hydroxy-4-carboxy-5-ureidoimidazoline (OHCU) and decarboxylation of OHCU to give S-(+)-allantoin. Urate oxidation produces racemic allantoin on a time scale of hours, whereas the full enzymatic complement produces dextrorotatory allantoin on a time scale of seconds. The use of these enzymes in association with urate oxidase could improve the therapy of hyperuricemia. 相似文献

IntroductionBoth sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intake and body mass index (BMI) are associated with elevated serum urate concentrations and gout risk. The aim of this study was to determine whether the associations of SSB intake with serum urate and gout are moderated by BMI.MethodThe effects of chronic SSB intake on serum urate and gout status were analysed in a large cross-sectional population study. The effects of an acute fructose load on serum urate and fractional excretion of uric acid (FEUA) were examined over 180 minutes in a short-term intervention study. In all analyses, the responses were compared in those with BMI <25 mg/kg2 (low BMI) and ≥25 mg/kg2 (high BMI).ResultsIn the serum urate analysis (n = 12,870), chronic SSB intake was associated with increased serum urate in the high BMI group, but not in the low BMI group (Pdifference = 3.6 × 10−3). In the gout analysis (n = 2578), chronic high SSB intake was associated with gout in the high BMI group, but not in the low BMI group (Pdifference = 0.012). In the acute fructose loading study (n = 76), serum urate was increased in the high BMI group at baseline and throughout the observation period (PBMI group <0.0001), but there were similar acute serum urate increases in both BMI groups in response to the fructose load (Pinteraction = 0.99). The baseline FEUA was similar between the two BMI groups. However, following the fructose load, FEUA responses in the BMI groups differed (Pinteraction <0.0001), with increased FEUA at 120 minutes and 180 minutes in the low BMI group and reduced FEUA at 60 minutes in the high BMI group.ConclusionsThese data suggest that BMI influences serum urate and gout risk in response to chronic SSB intake, and renal tubular uric acid handling in response to an acute fructose load. In addition to many other health benefits, avoidance of SSBs may be particularly important in those with overweight/obesity to prevent hyperuricaemia and reduce gout risk.

The effect of a mixed formulation of 50 mg losartan (LOS) and 12.5 mg hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) on blood pressure and the uric acid metabolism was analyzed in 73 patients who switched to this formulation from other antihypertensive drugs. Eight patients who switched to the formulation from the regular dose of renin-angiotensin (RA) inhibitor (angiotensin receptor blocker [ARB] or angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE] inhibitor) only showed a significant decrease in blood pressure, from 156.9 ± 14.1/88.6 ± 9.7 mmHg to 128.3 ± 16.0/76.1 ±10.7 mmHg (p = 0.007), and a significant increase in serum uric acid levels, from 5.2 ± 1.1 mg/dL to 6.8 ± 0.7 mg/dL (p = 0.02). In the other 50 patients who switched from a combination of the regular dose of RA inhibitor and calcium channel blocker (CCB), their blood pressure significantly increased, from 126.0 ± 13.8/72.0 ± 10.0 mmHg to 132.5 ± 16.4/76.5 ± 11.3 mmHg (p = 0.02), and their serum uric acid levels also significantly increased, from 5.6 ± 1.1 mg/dL to 6.1 ± 1.3 mg/dL (p = 0.0002). Considering that guidelines recommend using antihypertensive therapies that do not lead to an increase in serum uric acid levels, we conclude that using the ARB/HCTZ combination is less suitable than the regular dose of the ARB/CCB combination due to its effect on hypertension and serum uric acid levels. 相似文献
