A Comparative Study of the Predictive Values of Urinary Acute Kidney Injury Markers Angiogenin and Kidney Injury Molecule 1 for the Outcomes of Kidney Allografts.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Whether injury-related molecules in urines of individuals with ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) are independent predictors of graft outcomes and provide additional information compared with usual risk factors remains to be established.

Methods

We explored a cohort of 244 kidney transplant recipients who systematically had a urine collection 10 days after transplantation. The injury-related markers kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and angiogenin (ANG) levels in urines were measured. We determined the prognostic values of these markers on graft outcomes.

Results

Urinary KIM-1 and ANG concentrations were strongly correlated to each other and were significantly and independently associated with cold ischemia time, delayed graft function, and plasma creatinine 10 days after transplantation, indicating that these markers reflect the severity of IRI. However, urinary ANG and KIM-1 were not predictive of histological changes on protocol biopsies performed 3 and 12 months after transplantation. Finally, urinary ANG and urinary KIM-1 were not associated with graft survival.

Conclusions

Together, our results indicate that, in a cohort of 244 kidney transplant recipients, urinary ANG and KIM-1 levels in a single measurement 10 days after transplantation reflect the severity of IRI after kidney transplantation, but are neither independent predictors of renal function, histological changes and graft survival.

Project description:The standard test for the diagnosis of acute rejection in kidney transplants is the renal biopsy. Noninvasive tests would be preferable.We prospectively collected 4300 urine specimens from 485 kidney-graft recipients from day 3 through month 12 after transplantation. Messenger RNA (mRNA) levels were measured in urinary cells and correlated with allograft-rejection status with the use of logistic regression.A three-gene signature of 18S ribosomal (rRNA)-normalized measures of CD3? mRNA and interferon-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) mRNA, and 18S rRNA discriminated between biopsy specimens showing acute cellular rejection and those not showing rejection (area under the curve [AUC], 0.85; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.78 to 0.91; P<0.001 by receiver-operating-characteristic curve analysis). The cross-validation estimate of the AUC was 0.83 by bootstrap resampling, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated good fit (P=0.77). In an external-validation data set, the AUC was 0.74 (95% CI, 0.61 to 0.86; P<0.001) and did not differ significantly from the AUC in our primary data set (P=0.13). The signature distinguished acute cellular rejection from acute antibody-mediated rejection and borderline rejection (AUC, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.68 to 0.89; P<0.001). It also distinguished patients who received anti-interleukin-2 receptor antibodies from those who received T-cell-depleting antibodies (P<0.001) and was diagnostic of acute cellular rejection in both groups. Urinary tract infection did not affect the signature (P=0.69). The average trajectory of the signature in repeated urine samples remained below the diagnostic threshold for acute cellular rejection in the group of patients with no rejection, but in the group with rejection, there was a sharp rise during the weeks before the biopsy showing rejection (P<0.001).A molecular signature of CD3? mRNA, IP-10 mRNA, and 18S rRNA levels in urinary cells appears to be diagnostic and prognostic of acute cellular rejection in kidney allografts.

Project description:Objectives: Secretion of extracellular vesicles (EV) and associated micro-RNAs (miR) is altered during cellular stress and may serve as biomarkers of organ injury. We hypothesized that measuring changes in urinary levels of EV and miR will predict the onset of acute kidney injury in cardiac surgery patients. Design: Predictive accuracy biomarker study performed in the cohort of the REVAKI-2 trial Setting: Single center ICU between September 2015 and September 2018 Interventions: Intravenous sildenafil citrate 12.5 mg kg-1 over 150 min or dextrose 5% at the commencement of surgery. Measurements and main results: Urine samples were collected before and 24 hours after the procedure from 93 cardiac surgery patients. Urine EV concentrations and size distribution were assessed using NanoSight. EV derivation and levels were measured using flow cytometry. Samples from 10 selected patients were sequenced to detect differentially expressed miR. Verification was performed with advanced TaqMan assays in samples from all patients. Urine EV concentrations significantly increased in patients with AKI after surgery, with the percentage of EV positive for aquaporin-2 and β1-integrin also increasing. Pre surgery podocalyxin-positive EV were significantly lower, and β1-integrin EV werehigher in patients with AKI. The levels of the former correlated with the severity of theinjury. miR-125a-5p was expressed at higher levels in urine from patients with AKI stage 2/3. Levels of miR-10a-5p decreased after surgery in AKI patients; its levels correlated with the severity of the injury. Preoperative levels of podocalyxin EVs and miR-125a-5p had moderate AKI predictive value and, in a logistic model together with ICU lactate levels, offered good (AUC = 80.9%) AKI prediction. Conclusions: Lower levels of podocalyxin-positive EV at baseline predict the severity of post-surgery AKI. Urine EV concentrations and miR expression offer excellent predictive accuracy when combined with commonly measured biomarkers.

Project description:Background and objectivesKidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) has been suggested as a clinically relevant highly specific biomarker of acute kidney tubular damage. However, community-based data on the association between urinary levels of KIM-1 and the risk for cardiovascular mortality are lacking. This study aimed to investigate the association between urinary KIM-1 and cardiovascular mortality.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsThis was a prospective study, using the community-based Uppsala Longitudinal Study of Adult Men (N=590; mean age 77 years; baseline period, 1997-2001; median follow-up 8.1 years; end of follow-up, 2008).ResultsDuring follow-up, 89 participants died of cardiovascular causes (incidence rate, 2.07 per 100 person-years at risk). Models were adjusted for cardiovascular risk factors (age, systolic BP, diabetes, smoking, body mass index, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, antihypertensive treatment, lipid-lowering treatment, aspirin treatment, and history of cardiovascular disease) and for markers of kidney dysfunction and damage (cystatin C-based eGFR and urinary albumin/creatinine ratio). Higher urinary KIM-1/creatinine (from 24-hour urine collections) was associated with a higher risk for cardiovascular mortality (hazard ratio per SD increase, 1.27; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.05 to 1.54; P=0.01). Participants with a combination of high KIM-1/creatinine (upper quintile, ?175 ng/mmol), low eGFR (?60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2)), and microalbuminuria/macroalbuminuria (albumin/creatinine ratio?3 g/mol) had a >8-fold increased risk compared with participants with low KIM-1/creatinine (<175 ng/mmol), normal eGFR (>60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2)), and normoalbuminuria (albumin/creatinine ratio<3 g/mol) (hazard ratio, 8.56; 95% CI, 4.17 to 17.56; P<0.001).ConclusionsThese findings suggest that higher urinary KIM-1 may predispose to a higher risk of cardiovascular mortality independently of established cardiovascular risk factors, eGFR, and albuminuria. Additional studies are needed to further assess the utility of measuring KIM-1 in the clinical setting.
