High phosphate feeding promotes mineral and bone abnormalities in mice with chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a systemic syndrome characterized by imbalances in mineral homeostasis, renal osteodystrophy (ROD) and ectopic calcification. The mechanisms underlying this syndrome in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are not yet clear.

Methods

We examined the effect of normal phosphate (NP) or high phosphate (HP) feeding in the setting of CKD on bone pathology, serum biochemistry and vascular calcification in calcification-prone dilute brown non-agouti (DBA/2) mice.

Results

In both NP and HP-fed CKD mice, elevated serum parathyroid hormone and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels were observed, but serum phosphorus levels were equivalent compared with sham controls. CKD mice on NP diet showed trabecular alterations in the long bone consistent with high-turnover ROD, including increased trabecular number with abundant osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Despite trabecular bone and serum biochemical changes, CKD/NP mice did not develop vascular calcification. In contrast, CKD/HP mice developed arterial medial calcification (AMC), more severe trabecular bone alterations and cortical bone abnormalities that included decreased cortical thickness and density, and increased cortical porosity. Cortical bone porosity and trabecular number strongly correlated with the degree of aortic calcification.

Conclusions

HP feeding was required to induce the full spectrum of CKD-MBD symptoms in CKD mice.

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) in dogs is associated with hypovitaminosis D, increased parathyroid hormone (PTH), and increased fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) concentrations. Best practice for vitamin D metabolite supplementation in CKD-MBD remains unknown.ObjectiveTo provide an extended-release calcifediol supplement to dogs with CKD and to measure its effects on variables indicative of CKD-MBD.AnimalsTen dogs with International Renal Interest Society stages 2 and 3 CKD.MethodsIn a prospective study, dogs received a calcifediol supplement for 84 days. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]2 D), 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (24,25[OH]2 D), creatinine, calcium, phosphorus, PTH, plasma FGF-23 concentrations, and urine profiles were measured monthly during supplementation. Urine calcium to creatinine (UCa/Cr) ratios and fractional excretion of calcium, phosphorus, and sodium were determined.ResultsAll serum vitamin D metabolite concentrations increased significantly by day 84 (P < .001): [25(OH)D (median 249.9 ng/mL; range, 149.7-469.9 ng/mL) compared to baseline (median 50.2 ng/mL; range, 31.3-66.0 ng/mL); 1,25(OH)2 D (median 66.1 pg/mL; range, 56.9-88.1 pg/mL) compared to baseline (median 37.3 pg/mL; range, 29.3-56.7 pg/mL); 24,25(OH)2 D (median 81.4 ng/mL; range, 22.1-151.7 ng/mL) compared to baseline (median 15.4 ng/mL; range, 6.9-40.6 ng/mL)]. There were no significant differences in calcium, phosphorus, PTH concentrations, UCa/Cr or fractional excretion of calcium. No dog developed ionized hypercalcemia. Plasma FGF-23 concentrations increased by day 84 (median 1219 pg/mL; range, 229-8824 pg/mL) compared to baseline (median 798 pg/mL; range, 103-4.145 pg/mL) (P < .01).Conclusions and clinical importanceCalcifediol supplementation for 84 days was well-tolerated in dogs with IRIS stages 2 and 3 CKD. It remains to be determined how long-term supplementation would affect CKD progression and QOL.
