DMP1 prevents osteocyte alterations, FGF23 elevation and left ventricular hypertrophy in mice with chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: During chronic kidney disease (CKD), alterations in bone and mineral metabolism include increased production of the hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) that may contribute to cardiovascular mortality. The osteocyte protein dentin matrix protein 1 (DMP1) reduces FGF23 and enhances bone mineralization, but its effects in CKD are unknown. We tested the hypothesis that DMP1 supplementation in CKD would improve bone health, prevent FGF23 elevations and minimize consequent adverse cardiovascular outcomes. We investigated DMP1 regulation and effects in wild-type (WT) mice and the Col4a3^-/- mouse model of CKD. Col4a3^-/- mice demonstrated impaired kidney function, reduced bone DMP1 expression, reduced bone mass, altered osteocyte morphology and connectivity, increased osteocyte apoptosis, increased serum FGF23, hyperphosphatemia, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and reduced survival. Genetic or pharmacological supplementation of DMP1 in Col4a3^-/- mice prevented osteocyte apoptosis, preserved osteocyte networks, corrected bone mass, partially lowered FGF23 levels by attenuating NFAT-induced FGF23 transcription, and further increased serum phosphate. Despite impaired kidney function and worsened hyperphosphatemia, DMP1 prevented development of LVH and improved Col4a3^-/- survival. Our data suggest that CKD reduces DMP1 expression, whereas its restoration represents a potential therapeutic approach to lower FGF23 and improve bone and cardiac health in CKD.

Project description:Background and objectivesHigh plasma concentration of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a risk factor for left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in adults with CKD, and induces myocardial hypertrophy in experimental CKD. We hypothesized that high FGF23 levels associate with a higher prevalence of LVH in children with CKD.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsWe performed echocardiograms and measured plasma C-terminal FGF23 concentrations in 587 children with mild-to-moderate CKD enrolled in the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children (CKiD) study. We used linear and logistic regression to analyze the association of plasma FGF23 with left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and LVH (LVMI ≥95th percentile), adjusted for demographics, body mass index, eGFR, and CKD-specific factors. We also examined the relationship between FGF23 and LVH by eGFR level.ResultsMedian age was 12 years (interquartile range, 8-15) and eGFR was 50 ml/min per 1.73 m2 (interquartile range, 38-64). Overall prevalence of LVH was 11%. After adjustment for demographics and body mass index, the odds of having LVH was higher by 2.53 (95% confidence interval, 1.28 to 4.97; P<0.01) in participants with FGF23 concentrations ≥170 RU/ml compared with those with FGF23<100 RU/ml, but this association was attenuated after full adjustment. Among participants with eGFR≥45 ml/min per 1.73 m2, the prevalence of LVH was 5.4%, 11.2%, and 15.3% for those with FGF23 <100 RU/ml, 100-169 RU/ml, and ≥170 RU/ml, respectively (Ptrend=0.01). When eGFR was ≥45 ml/min per 1.73 m2, higher FGF23 concentrations were independently associated with LVH (fully adjusted odds ratio, 3.08 in the highest versus lowest FGF23 category; 95% confidence interval, 1.02 to 9.24; P<0.05; fully adjusted odds ratio, 2.02 per doubling of FGF23; 95% confidence interval, 1.29 to 3.17; P<0.01). By contrast, in participants with eGFR<45 ml/min per 1.73 m2, FGF23 did not associate with LVH.ConclusionsPlasma FGF23 concentration ≥170 RU/ml is an independent predictor of LVH in children with eGFR≥45 ml/min per 1.73 m2.

Project description:Aortic valve stenosis is the most common cardiac valve disease, and with current trends in the population demographics, its prevalence is likely to rise, thus posing a major health and economic burden facing the worldwide societies. Over the past decade, it has become more than clear that our traditional genetic views do not sufficiently explain the well-known link between AS, proatherogenic risk factors, flow-induced mechanical forces, and disease-prone environmental influences. Recent breakthroughs in the field of epigenetics offer us a new perspective on gene regulation, which has broadened our perspective on etiology of aortic stenosis and other aortic valve diseases. Since all known epigenetic marks are potentially reversible this perspective is especially exciting given the potential for development of successful and non-invasive therapeutic intervention and reprogramming of cells at the epigenetic level even in the early stages of disease progression. This review will examine the known relationships between four major epigenetic mechanisms: DNA methylation, posttranslational histone modification, ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling, and non-coding regulatory RNAs, and initiation and progression of AS. Numerous profiling and functional studies indicate that they could contribute to endothelial dysfunctions, disease-prone activation of monocyte-macrophage and circulatory osteoprogenitor cells and activation and osteogenic transdifferentiation of aortic valve interstitial cells, thus leading to valvular inflammation, fibrosis, and calcification, and to pressure overload-induced maladaptive myocardial remodeling and left ventricular hypertrophy. This is especcialy the case for small non-coding microRNAs but was also, although in a smaller scale, convincingly demonstrated for other members of cellular epigenome landscape. Equally important, and clinically most relevant, the reported data indicate that epigenetic marks, particularly certain microRNA signatures, could represent useful non-invasive biomarkers that reflect the disease progression and patients prognosis for recovery after the valve replacement surgery.

Project description:ObjectiveVolume overload is a frequent feature related to left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in dialysis patients, but its influence on patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) not on dialysis has not been accurately uncovered. This article was to examine the relationship between overhydration (OH) and LVH in patients with CKD not yet on dialysis.MethodsA total of 302 patients with CKD stages 1-4 were included. Participants were divided into different subgroups according to occurring LVH or not, and OH tertiles. Clinical and laboratory parameters were compared among groups. Spearman correlation analyses were adopted to explore the relationships of echocardiographic findings with the clinical and laboratory characteristics. Binary logistic regression models were performed to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) for the associations between OH and LVH. Restricted cubic splines were implemented to assess the possible non-linear relationship between OH and LVH. LVH was defined as left ventricular mass index (LVMI) >115 g/m2 in men and >95 g/m2 in women.ResultsOf the enrolled patients with CKD, the mean age was 45.03 ± 15.14 years old, 165 (54.6%) cases were men, and 65 (21.5%) cases had LVH. Spearman correlation analyses revealed that OH was positively correlated with LVMI (r = 0.263, P < 0.001). After adjustment for age, gender, diabetes, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP), hemoglobin, serum albumin, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and logarithmic transformation of urinary sodium and urinary protein, multivariate logistic regression analyses demonstrated that both the middle and highest tertile of OH was associated with increased odds of LVH [OR: 3.082 (1.170-8.114), P = 0.023; OR: 4.481 (1.332-15.078), P = 0.015, respectively], in comparison to the lowest tierce. Restricted cubic spline analyses were employed to investigate the relationship between OH and LVH, which unfolded a significant non-linear association (P for non-linear = 0.0363). Furthermore, patients were divided into two groups according to CKD stages. The multivariate logistic regression analyses uncovered that increased odds of LVH were observed in the middle and the highest tertile of OH [OR: 3.908 (0.975-15.670), P = 0.054; OR: 6.347 (1.257-32.054), P = 0.025, respectively] in patients with stages 1-2.ConclusionThese findings suggest that a higher level of OH was associated with a higher occurrence of LVH in patients with CKD not on dialysis, especially in patients with CKD stages 1-2.
