Let-7 and MicroRNA-148 Regulate Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism.

ABSTRACT: Secondary hyperparathyroidism commonly complicates CKD and associates with morbidity and mortality. We profiled microRNA (miRNA) in parathyroid glands from experimental hyperparathyroidism models and patients receiving dialysis and studied the function of specific miRNAs. miRNA deep-sequencing showed that human and rodent parathyroids share similar profiles. Parathyroids from uremic and normal rats segregated on the basis of their miRNA expression profiles, and a similar finding was observed in humans. We identified parathyroid miRNAs that were dysregulated in experimental hyperparathyroidism, including miR-29, miR-21, miR-148, miR-30, and miR-141 (upregulated); and miR-10, miR-125, and miR-25 (downregulated). Inhibition of the abundant let-7 family increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion in normal and uremic rats, as well as in mouse parathyroid organ cultures. Conversely, inhibition of the upregulated miR-148 family prevented the increase in serum PTH level in uremic rats and decreased levels of secreted PTH in parathyroid cultures. The evolutionary conservation of abundant miRNAs in normal parathyroid glands and the regulation of these miRNAs in secondary hyperparathyroidism indicates their importance for parathyroid function and the development of hyperparathyroidism. Specifically, let-7 and miR-148 antagonism modified PTH secretion in vivo and in vitro, implying roles for these specific miRNAs. These findings may be utilized for therapeutic interventions aimed at altering PTH expression in diseases such as osteoporosis and secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Project description:Several studies have reported on the use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) measurements during parathyroidectomy (PTX) for renal hyperparathyroidism (rHPT), but there is no consensus on whether it is helpful and, if so, what protocol should be used. Therefore, the literature was systematically reviewed to assess a correlation between ioPTH and early postoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in patients undergoing PTX for rHPT, separately for those on dialysis and those with a functioning renal transplant. A systematic literature search was performed in electronic databases. Quality assessment was performed using the Quality In Prognosis Studies tool. Mean ioPTH values were calculated at different time points and correlated to the postoperative PTH levels within 1 month. Fixed-effect and random-effects models were performed to assess the mean ioPTH levels at 10 or 20 min after resection (T10 and T20). Stratified analyses were performed for patients on dialysis and those with a functioning renal transplant. Of the 3087 records screened, 14 studies were included, including some 1177 patients; 1091 were on dialysis and 86 had a functioning kidney transplant. Risk of bias was moderate for most studies. For patients on dialysis, T10 and T20 mean ioPTH levels were 32.1 (95 per cent c.i. 24.3 to 39.9) pmol/l and 15.4 (95 per cent c.i. 7.8 to 22.9) pmol/l) in the random effects meta-analysis. Between individual studies, ioPTH ranged from 4.0-65.1 pmol/l at T10 and 8.6-25.7 pmol/l at T20. T10 and T20 ioPTH were 9.6 and 4.1 times the postoperative PTH-after T20 ioPTH stabilized in those on dialysis. In patients with a functioning renal transplant, ioPTH levels seemed to plateau after 10 min and measured 2.6 times the postoperative PTH. There is a strong correlation between ioPTH and early postoperative PTH levels, indicating that ioPTH is potentially a useful instrument during PTX in patients with rHPT. For patients on dialysis, at T20 ioPTH levels have stabilized and are approximately four times the postoperative PTH. Therefore, it is recommended to use ioPTH 20 min after resection in patients on dialysis, which might be longer than necessary for those with a kidney transplant.

Project description:BackgroundElevated serum phosphorus (P) levels have been linked to increased morbidity and mortality in dialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) but may be difficult to control if parathyroid hormone (PTH) is persistently elevated. We conducted a post hoc analysis of data from an earlier interventional study (OPTIMA) to explore the relationship between PTH control and serum P.MethodsThe OPTIMA study randomized dialysis patients with intact PTH (iPTH) 300-799 pg/mL to receive conventional care alone (vitamin D and/or phosphate binders [PB]; n=184) or a cinacalcet-based regimen (n=368). For patients randomized to conventional care, investigators were allowed flexibility in using a non-cinacalcet regimen (with no specific criteria for vitamin D analogue dosage) to attain KDOQI™ targets for iPTH, P, Ca and Ca x P. For those assigned to the cinacalcet-based regimen, dosages of cinacalcet, vitamin D sterols, and PB were optimized over the first 16 weeks of the study, using a predefined treatment algorithm. The present analysis examined achievement of serum P targets (≤ 4.5 and ≤ 5.5 mg/dL) in relation to achievement of iPTH ≤ 300 pg/mL during the efficacy assessment phase (EAP; weeks 17-23).ResultsPatients who achieved iPTH ≤ 300 pg/mL (or a reduction of ≥ 30% from baseline) were more likely to achieve serum P targets than those who did not, regardless of treatment group. Of those who did achieve iPTH ≤ 300 pg/mL, 43% achieved P ≤ 4.5 mg/dL and 70% achieved P ≤ 5.5 mg/dL, versus 21% and 46% of those who did not achieve iPTH ≤ 300 pg/mL. Doses of PB tended to be higher in patients not achieving serum P targets. Patients receiving cinacalcet were more likely to achieve iPTH ≤ 300 pg/mL than those receiving conventional care (73% vs 23% of patients). Logistic regression analysis identified lower baseline P, no PB use at baseline and cinacalcet treatment to be predictors of achieving P ≤ 4.5 mg/dL during EAP in patients above this threshold at baseline.ConclusionsThis post hoc analysis found that control of serum P in dialysis patients was better when serum PTH levels were lowered effectively, regardless of treatment received.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT00110890.

Project description:BackgroundTotal parathyroidectomy (PTx) is often performed to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). Successful PTx is essential to prevent recurrent and persistent SHPT because remnant parathyroid glands (PTGs) in the neck can be stimulated and may secrete excessive parathyroid hormone (PTH) in end-stage renal disease. However, to date, few studies have investigated factors contributing to successful PTx before the completion of surgery.Materials and methodsBetween August 2010 and February 2020, 344 patients underwent total PTx, transcervical thymectomy, and forearm autograft for SHPT at our institute. Factors contributing to successful PTx before the completion of surgery were investigated. Preoperative imaging diagnoses, including computed tomography, ultrasonography, technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) scintigraphy, intraoperative intact PTH (IOIPTH) monitoring, and frozen section histologic diagnosis, were performed. Successful PTx was defined as intact PTH level < 60 pg/mL on postoperative day 1. A sufficient decrease in IOIPTH level was defined as > 70% decrease in intact PTH levels measured 10 min after total PTx and transcervical thymectomy compared to intact PTH levels measured before skin incision. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate factors contributing to PTx success.ResultsUnivariate analysis showed that the number of all PTGs identified preoperatively by imaging modalities and the specimens submitted for frozen section diagnosis, which surgeon presumed to be PTGs, were not significant factors contributing to successful PTx. However, multivariate analysis revealed that the number of PTGs identified by frozen section diagnosis (P < 0.001, odds ratio [OR] 4.356, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.499-7.592) and sufficient decrease in IOIPTH levels (P = 0.001, OR 7.847, 95% CI 2.443-25.204) significantly contributed to successful PTx.ConclusionSufficient intact PTH level decrease observed on IOIPTH monitoring and the number of PTGs identified by frozen section diagnosis contributed to successful PTx for SHPT. IOIPTH monitoring and frozen section diagnosis are essential for achieving successful PTx for SHPT.

Project description:Persistent or recurrent renal hyperparathyroidism may occur after total parathyroidectomy and transcervical thymectomy with forearm autograft under continuous stimulation due to uremia. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels may reflect persistent or recurrent renal hyperparathyroidism because of the enlarged autografted parathyroid glands in the forearm or remnant parathyroid glands in the neck or mediastinum. Detailed imaging requires predictive localization of causative parathyroid glands. Casanova and simplified Casanova tests may be convenient. However, these methods require avascularization of the autografted forearm for >10 min with a tourniquet or Esmarch. The heavy pressure during avascularization can be incredibly painful and result in nerve damage. An easier method that minimizes the burden on patients in addition to predicting the localization of causative parathyroid glands was developed in this study. Ninety patients who underwent successful re-parathyroidectomy for persistent or recurrent renal hyperparathyroidism after parathyroidectomy between January 2000 and July 2019 were classified according to the localization of causative parathyroid glands (63 and 27 patients in the autografted forearm and the neck or mediastinum groups, respectively). Preoperatively, intact PTH levels were measured from bilateral forearm blood samples following a 5-min avascularization of the autografted forearm. Cutoff values of the intact PTH ratio (intact PTH level obtained from the non-autografted forearm before re-parathyroidectomy/intact PTH level obtained from the autografted forearm before re-parathyroidectomy) were investigated with receiver operating characteristic curves to localize the causative parathyroid glands. Intact PTH ratios of <0.310 with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.913 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.856-0.970; P < 0.001) and >0.859 with an AUC 0.744 (95% CI: 0.587-0.901; P = 0.013) could predict causative parathyroid glands in the autografted forearm and the neck or mediastinum with diagnostic accuracies of 81.1% and 83.3%, respectively. Therefore, we propose that the intact PTH ratio is useful for predicting the localization of causative parathyroid glands for re-parathyroidectomy.
