Cystinuria, accounting for about 1-2% of kidney stones in adults, carries significant morbidity beginning at a young age [1]. Cystine stone formers have more stone events compared to other stone formers, as well as more surgical interventions, potentially contributing to faster progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD), and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) [2]. Successful medical therapy for cystine stone formers may be limited by adherence to the extensive lifestyle changes and the adverse side effect profiles of some interventions, leading to decreased quality of life for these patients relative to other stone formers. 相似文献

ObjectivePatients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) are at increased risk of kidney stones. Guidelines recommend parathyroidectomy in patients with PHPT with a history of stone disease. This study aimed to compare the 5-year incidence of clinically significant kidney stone events in patients with PHPT treated with parathyroidectomy versus nonoperative management.MethodsWe performed a longitudinal cohort study of patients with PHPT in a national commercial insurance claims database (2006-2019). Propensity score inverse probability weighting-adjusted multivariable regression models were calculated.ResultsWe identified 7623 patients aged ≥35 years old with continuous enrollment >1 year before and >5 years after PHPT diagnosis. A total of 2933 patients (38.5%) were treated with parathyroidectomy. The cohort had a mean age of 66.5 years, 5953 (78.1%) were female, and 5520 (72.4%) were White. Over 5 years, the unadjusted incidence of ≥1 kidney stone event was higher in patients who were managed with parathyroidectomy compared with those who were managed nonoperatively overall (5.4% vs 4.1%, respectively) and among those with a history of kidney stones at PHPT diagnosis (17.9% vs 16.4%, respectively). On multivariable analysis, parathyroidectomy was associated with no statistically significant difference in the odds of a 5-year kidney stone event among patients with a history of kidney stones (odds ratio, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.71-1.50) or those without a history of kidney stones (odds ratio, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.84-1.60).ConclusionBased on this claim analysis, there was no difference in the odds of 5-year kidney stone events in patients with PHPT who were treated with parathyroidectomy versus nonoperative management. Time horizon for benefit should be considered when making treatment decisions for PHPT based on the risk of kidney stone events. 相似文献

Kidney stone disease affects 1 - 20% of the general population. At present, the diagnosis of a stone is done using radiography method when noticeable symptoms appeared. We developed a non-invasive quantitative assay for urinary THP, namely ELISA; whereby our previous study and other reports had shown the usefulness of THP as biomarker for kidney stone disease. Since urine is biological fluid that is easily obtainable, this method could be used as a screening assay for kidney stone prior to confirmation with radiography. The ELISA gave assay linearity r(2) > 0.999 within the range of 109 ng/mL to 945 ng/mL THP. Assay precisions were < 4% (C.V.) for repeatability and < 5% (C.V.) for reproducibility. Assay accuracy range from 97.7% to 101.2% at the various THP concentrations tested. Assay specificity and sensitivity were 80% and 86%, respectively. The cut-off points at P < 0.05 were 37.0 and 41.2 mug/mL for male and female, respectively. The assay is cost effective and rapid whereby the cost for assaying each urine sample in duplicate is approximately USD0.35 and within 5 hours, 37 samples can be assayed alongside full range of standards and 3 QC samples in each plate. Furthermore, sample preparation is relatively easy where urine sample was diluted 10 times in TEA buffer. The usability of the ELISA method for diagnosis of kidney stone disease is evaluated with 117 healthy subjects and 58 stone formers. 相似文献

In 1988, a consensus conference was held at the National Institutes of Health to develop guidelines for prevention and treatment of kidney stones. The recommendations regarding the medical evaluation of stone formers and treatment directed at stone prevention are reviewed. The relevance of those 1988 guidelines is evaluated for continued pertinence. Most of the recommendations promulgated in the consensus statement remain useful today. One significant change is the current consensus that dietary calcium restriction is no longer considered appropriate therapy, as there is no evidence that it actually prevents stones and has as a consequence the potential to worsen bone demineralization. 相似文献

To evaluate the role of parathyroids in calculus disease, the parathyroid hormone levels were determined in 22 control subjects and 42 stone (14 with bladder stone and 28 with kidney stone) patients. Serum calcium, inorganic phosphate, alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone and urinary excretion of calcium and inorganic phosphate were determined. It was found that normocalcemic and normocalciuric stone patients had slightly higher levelsss of parathyroid hormone (irrespective of the site of the stone) and the difference was not statistically significant as compared with control subjects although some of the patients with calculus disease were hyperparathyroid. Serum alkaline phosphatase was increased while there was an increase in urinary calcium excretion in kidney stone patients and oxalate in all patients as compared with control subjects. The increase in inorganic phosphate was, however, not different from the control subjects. The subclinical hyperparathyroidism and stone formation in these patients are not correlated. 相似文献

Interaction between hyaluronic acid (HA) present at the surface of tubular epithelial cells and calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals is thought to play an important role in kidney stone formation. AFM-based force spectroscopy, where HA is covalently attached to AFM-probes, was used to quantify the interaction between HA and the surfaces of COM crystals. The work of adhesion of the HA-probe as well as the rupture force of single HA molecules were quantified in order to understand the molecular regulation of HA binding to COM crystals. Our results reveal that HA adsorbs to the crystal surface in physiological conditions. We also observed increased adhesion when the pH is lowered to a value that increases the risk of kidney stone formation. HA adhesion to the COM crystal surface can be suppressed by citrate, a physiological inhibitor of stone retention currently used in the treatment and prevention of kidney stone formation. Interestingly, we also observed preferential binding of HA onto the [100] face versus the [010] face, suggesting a major contribution of the [100] faces in the crystal retention process at the surface of tubular epithelial cells and the promotion of stone formation. Our results clearly establish a direct role for the glycosaminoglycan HA present at the surface of kidney tubular epithelium in the process of COM crystal retention. 相似文献

Treatment of acute kidney injury has been hampered by the inability of a creatinine-based diagnosis to allow clinicians to intervene with timely treatments aimed at preventing further development of the disease to the point where renal replacement therapy is necessary or death occurs. Novel biomarkers of injury have been touted as the tool by which early detection can occur and, on that basis, novel treatments can be developed and delivered early in the disease process. Sufficient new biomarkers have been discovered and evaluated to expect that not one biomarker but a panel of biomarkers applied according to phase of injury, baseline renal function and comorbidities will be necessary for the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury. Issues of validation of these biomarkers remain, particularly in heterogeneous populations of critically ill patients. Nevertheless, we are rapidly moving towards an era where the diagnosis of acute kidney injury will be proactive rather than by the traditional diagnosis of exclusion. 相似文献

Kidney stone disease (KSD) is a major clinical problem imposing a large burden for both healthcare and economy globally. In India, the prevalence of kidney stone disease is rapidly increasing. This study aimed to evaluate the association between genetic defects in vitamin D receptor (VDR), calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) and claudin 14 (CLDN14) genes and kidney stone disease in patients from eastern India. We enrolled 200 consecutive kidney stone patients (age 18–60 years) (cases) and their corresponding sex and age matched 200 normal individuals (controls). To identify genetic variants responsible for KSD, we performed sequence analysis of VDR, CaSR and CLDN14 genes. Four non-synonymous (rs1801725, rs1042636, rs1801726 and rs2228570), one synonymous (rs219780) and three intronic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs731236, rs219777 and rs219778) were identified. Genotype and allele frequency analysis of these SNPs revealed that, rs1801725 (Ala986Ser), rs1042636 (Arg990Gly) of CaSR gene and rs219778, rs219780 (Thr229Thr) of CLDN14 gene were significantly associated with KSD. Serum calcium levels were significantly higher in subjects carrying 986Ser allele and calcium excretion was higher in subjects bearing 990Gly allele. In conclusion, rs1801725, rs1042636, rs219778 and rs219780 SNPs were associated with kidney stone risk in patients from the eastern part of India. 相似文献

Kidney stones are common, and recurrences are the rule. At least 90% of patients with kidney stones probably have some identifiable metabolic risk factor. Effective prophylaxis is often available, but with the relatively low rate of recurrence, compliance with the treatment may be a problem. Studies are required to determine the cost-effectiveness of metabolic investigation and prophylactic therapy versus the possible need for repeated treatment by means of extracorporeal lithotripsy, especially in patients having a first calcium oxalate stone. 相似文献

Crystal retention on tubular cell surface inside renal tubules is considered as the earliest and crucial step for kidney stone formation. Therapeutics targeting this step would cease the development of kidney stone. This study thus aimed to investigate the potential role of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a major antioxidant found in green tea leaves, in the reduction of calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystal binding onto renal tubular cells. Pretreatment of the cells with EGCG for up to 6 h significantly diminished crystal-binding capability in a dose-dependent manner. Indirect immunofluorescence assay without and with cell permeabilization followed by laser-scanning confocal microscopy revealed that EGCG significantly reduced surface expression of alpha-enolase, whereas its intracellular level was increased. Western blot analysis confirmed such contradictory changes in membrane and cytosolic fractions of EGCG-treated cells, whereas the total level in whole cell lysate remained unchanged. Moreover, overexpression of surface alpha-enolase and enhancement of cell–crystal adhesion induced by 10 mM sodium oxalate were completely abolished by EGCG. Taken together, these data indicate that EGCG decreases binding of COM crystals onto renal tubular cells by decreasing the surface expression of alpha-enolase via re-localization or inhibition of alpha-enolase shuttling from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane. These findings may also explain the effects of EGCG in reducing COM crystal deposition in previous animal models of kidney stone disease. Thus, EGCG may be useful for the prevention of new or recurrent stone formation. 相似文献

Adhesion of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals to kidney cells is a key event in kidney stones associated with marked hyperoxaluria. As the propensity of stone recurrence and persistent side effects are not altered by surgical techniques available, phytotherapeutic agents could be useful as an adjuvant therapy. The present study is aimed at examining the antilithiatic potency of the protein biomolecules of Tribulus terrestris, a plant which is a common constituent of herbal marketed preparations to treat urolithiasis. Various biochemical methods with mass spectrometry were used to purify and characterize the purified protein. The protective potency of the protein was tested on the oxalate induced injury on renal epithelial cell lines (NRK 52E). An antilithiatic protein having molecular weight of ~ 60kDa was purified. This purified protein showed similarities with Carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 7 (CCD7) of Arabidopsis thaliana after matching peptide mass fingerprints in MASCOT search engine. An EF hand domain was identified in CCD7 by SCAN PROSITE. Presence of an EF hand domain, a characteristic feature of calcium binding proteins and a role in the synthesis of retinol which is transported by retinol binding protein, a protein found in kidney stone matrix; of CCD7 support the role of TTP as an antilithiatic protein. The protective potency of TTP on NRK 52E was quite comparable to the aqueous extract of cystone. Our findings suggest that this purified protein biomolecule from Tribulus terrestris could open new vista in medical management of urolithiasis. 相似文献

This review article summarizes the problems of metabolic disorders and nutrition imbalances that often occur in chronic kidney failure (CKF) or following regular dialysis treatment. In this survey, we cover the pathogenesis of these disorders, their clinical consequences, and their association with the most severe complications of chronic kidney failure and dialysis treatment. These complications are primarily atherosclerosis, malnutrition, anemia, hyperparathyroidism, and other serious problems that markedly and negatively affect prognosis and the quality of life of uremic patients. Risk factors for cardiovascular disease are discussed in-depth because cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients with chronic kidney failure. It is important to pay attention to the development of these complications because early diagnosis and therapy can improve the prognosis for these patients and reduce treatment costs. 相似文献

The function of lipid peroxidation and the anti-peroxidative enzymes of rat liver and kidney were investigated under hyperoxaluric and stone forming conditions. The experimental animals showed higher malondialdehyde content in liver and kidney than that of control. A significant increase in malondialdehyde release was observed in the experimental liver or kidney when incubated with either ferrous sulphate or hydrogen peroxide compared to that of control liver or kidney. Superoxide dismutase activity was not affected in the hyperoxaluric rats while there was a moderate increase in the stone forming rats when compared to control. Highly significant decrease in catalase activity was observed in both conditions in liver and kidney compared to control. 相似文献

Standardized calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystal growth assay system was employed to study the ability of various test samples to influence growth rates of COM crystals. The inhibitory activity (IA) of various samples was expressed in terms of inhibitory units. Urine samples obtained from normal persons and kidney stone patients were found to have IA of 3.18 +/- 0.62 and 1.02 +/- 0.08, respectively. A potent inhibitor having molecular weight between 14.2 and 16.2 kDa was found to be primarily responsible for the differences observed in the urinary IAs between normal persons and kidney stone patients. The potent inhibitor was found to be tightly associated with a chromophore resembling Urobilirubin. An ELISA based assay system, using monoclonal antibodies against the above most potent inhibitor confirmed the difference observed in the urinary IA between the normal persons and kidney stone patients. This assay system has the potential to be routinely used to screen human beings for potential stone formers. 相似文献

BackgroundKidney stone analysis techniques are well-established in the field of materials characterization and provide information for the chemical composition and structure of a sample. Nanomedicine, on the other hand, is a field with an increasing rate of scientific research, a big budget and increasingly developing market. The key scientific question is if there is a possibility for the development of a nanomedicine to treat kidney stones.Major conclusionsThe main calculi characterization techniques such as X-ray Diffraction and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy can provide information about the composition of a kidney stone but not for its nanostructure. On the other hand, Small Angle X-ray Scattering and Nitrogen Porosimetry can show the nanostructural parameters of the calculi. The combination of the previously described parameters can be used for the development of nano-drugs for the treatment of urolithiasis, while no such nano-drugs exist yet.General significanceIn this study, we focus on the most well-known techniques for kidney stone analysis, the urolithiasis management and the search for possible nanomedicine for the treatment of kidney stone disease. We combine the results from five different analysis techniques in order to represent a three dimensional model and we propose a hypothetical nano-drug with gold nanoparticles.

Small (50–200 nm), calcium phosphate (apatite)-covered organic particles called nanobacteria or calcifying nanoparticles (CNP) seem to be ubiquitous in kidney stones and are thought to be involved in stone formation. Although initial claims that these particles are the smallest known life forms have been somewhat softened, much controversy remains as to their involvement in kidney stone formation as well as in other pathological calcifications. I suggest that such particles are non-living and may be formed during the normal living activities of bona-fide bacteria which inhabit the kidneys. This hypothesis is based on previous observations that bacteria immersed in a supersaturated fluid produce organic globules which calcify when released to the surrounding fluid, forming CNP-like particles. The possibility that this process is responsible for the formation of CNP associated with pathological calcifications deserves greater scrutiny. 相似文献

Background
The increasing number of patients suffering from urolithiasis represents one of the major challenges which nephrologists face worldwide today. For enhancing therapeutic outcomes of this disease, the pathogenic basis for the formation of renal stones is the need of hour. Proteins are found as major component in human renal stone matrix and are considered to have a potential role in crystal–membrane interaction, crystal growth and stone formation but their role in urolithiasis still remains obscure.Methods
Proteins were isolated from the matrix of human CaOx containing kidney stones. Proteins having MW>3 kDa were subjected to anion exchange chromatography followed by molecular-sieve chromatography. The effect of these purified proteins was tested against CaOx nucleation and growth and on oxalate injured Madin–Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) renal epithelial cells for their activity. Proteins were identified by Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF MS) followed by database search with MASCOT server. In silico molecular interaction studies with CaOx crystals were also investigated.Results
Five proteins were identified from the matrix of calcium oxalate kidney stones by MALDI-TOF MS followed by database search with MASCOT server with the competence to control the stone formation process. Out of which two proteins were promoters, two were inhibitors and one protein had a dual activity of both inhibition and promotion towards CaOx nucleation and growth. Further molecular modelling calculations revealed the mode of interaction of these proteins with CaOx at the molecular level.Conclusions
We identified and characterized Ethanolamine-phosphate cytidylyltransferase, Ras GTPase-activating-like protein, UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 2, RIMS-binding protein 3A, Macrophage-capping protein as novel proteins from the matrix of human calcium oxalate stone which play a critical role in kidney stone formation. Thus, these proteins having potential to modulate calcium oxalate crystallization will throw light on understanding and controlling urolithiasis in humans. 相似文献18.

Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) deficiency is a rare inherited metabolic disorder that leads to the formation and hyperexcretion of 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (DHA) into urine. The low solubility of DHA results in precipitation and formation of urinary crystals and kidney stones. The disease can be present as recurrent urolithiasis or nephropathy secondary to crystal precipitation into renal parenchyma (DHA nephropathy). The diagnostic tools available, including stone analysis, crystalluria, and APRT activity in red blood cells, make the diagnosis easy to confirm when APRT deficiency is suspected. However, the lack of recognition of this metabolic disorder frequently resulted in a delay in diagnosis and treatment with grave consequences. The early recognition and treatment of APRT deficiency are of crucial importance to prevent irreversible loss of renal function. This review summarizes the genetic and metabolic mechanisms underlying DHA stones formation and chronic kidney disease, along with the issues of diagnosis and management of APRT deficiency. Moreover, we report the mutations in the APRT gene responsible for APRT deficiency in 51 French patients (43 families) including 22 pediatric cases (18 families) among the 64 patients identified in the biochemistry laboratories of Necker Hospital, Paris (1978–2013). 相似文献

Purpose
Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is a molecular determinant regulating the extracellular matrix calcification. To further confirm whether the MGP genetic polymorphism was universally associated with the risk of kidney stone, we investigated the association of genetic polymorphisms of MGP with kidney stone in the Chinese Han population.Materials and methods
728 subjects were recruited for the study. We firstly re-sequenced the human genomic MGP gene including the 1500 bp promoter, 5′-UTR, 4 exons and 3′-untranslated regions, identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MGP, and performed an association analysis with kidney stones in 54 subjects of the Chinese Han population. A candidate tag SNP was genotyped in total subjects using an allele specific PCR, and further analyzed the association with kidney stone.Results
We identified 18 polymorphisms including four tag SNPs. A tag SNPrs4236 was associated with kidney stones. The G allele carrier had a 1.373-fold reduced kidney stone risk compared with A allele carriers in SNPrs4236 (odds ratios (OR) = 1.373; 95%CI, 1.051–1.793; p = 0.019). However, we did not find an association between the polymorphism and clinical characteristics of kidney stones.Conclusions
Our findings showed that SNPrs4236 of the MGP gene is associated with kidney stones in the Chinese Han population, and influences the genetic susceptibility to kidney stones. In the future, functional assays of the polymorphism should permit a better understanding of the role of MGP genetic variants and kidney stones. 相似文献20.
