The tripartite interaction of phosphate, autophagy, and ?Klotho in health maintenance.

ABSTRACT: Aging-related organ degeneration is driven by multiple factors including the cell maintenance mechanisms of autophagy, the cytoprotective protein ?Klotho, and the lesser known effects of excess phosphate (Pi), or phosphotoxicity. To examine the interplay between Pi, autophagy, and ?Klotho, we used the BK/BK mouse (homozygous for mutant Becn1F121A ) with increased autophagic flux, and ?Klotho-hypomorphic mouse (kl/kl) with impaired urinary Pi excretion, low autophagy, and premature organ dysfunction. BK/BK mice live longer than WT littermates, and have heightened phosphaturia from downregulation of two key NaPi cotransporters in the kidney. The multi-organ failure in kl/kl mice was rescued in the double-mutant BK/BK;kl/kl mice exhibiting lower plasma Pi, improved weight gain, restored plasma and renal ?Klotho levels, decreased pathology of multiple organs, and improved fertility compared to kl/kl mice. The beneficial effects of heightened autophagy from Becn1F121A was abolished by chronic high-Pi diet which also shortened life span in the BK/BK;kl/kl mice. Pi promoted beclin 1 binding to its negative regulator BCL2, which impairs autophagy flux. Pi downregulated ?Klotho, which also independently impaired autophagy. In conclusion, Pi, ?Klotho, and autophagy interact intricately to affect each other. Both autophagy and ?Klotho antagonizes phosphotoxicity. In concert, this tripartite system jointly determines longevity and life span.

Project description:Background: Membrane-bound α-klotho functions as a co-receptor with fibroblast growth factor receptor at the renal tubule conferring specificity to fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), allowing it to inhibit tubular phosphate reabsorption at physiological concentrations. α-klotho also exists as a soluble protein. However, the complex interrelationships between soluble α-klotho (sKl), FGF-23 and phosphate reabsorption are poorly understood, with little known about the links between sKl, FGF-23 and phosphate reabsorption in chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study addresses this issue in a cohort of patients with and without CKD. Methods: We conducted a single-centre, cross-sectional study of contemporaneously obtained samples of blood and 24-h urine biochemistry along with sKl and intact FGF-23 (iFGF-23) from non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients and healthy volunteers. Pearson's correlation coefficients were used to determine correlations between natural log-transformed (Ln) sKl and iFGF-23 with other parameters of interest. Backward multivariate analysis was undertaken to evaluate the relationship between mineral parameters. Results: One hundred and sixteen participants (77 with CKD and 39 healthy volunteers) were studied, of which 74 (63.8%) were male. The median age was 61 (interquartile range 49-71) years. Those with CKD had lower sKl (408 versus 542 pg/mL), higher iFGF-23 (94 versus 41 pg/mL), higher fractional excretion of phosphate (25.05 versus 10.98%) and lower daily urinary phosphate excretion (UPE) (24.8 versus 32.3 mmol/L) compared with healthy volunteers (all P ≤ 0.002). Age correlated inversely and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) correlated positively with phosphate reabsorption and Ln(sKl), while the opposite was seen with Ln(iFGF23). Upon multivariate analysis, eGFR, Ln(sKl) and parathyroid hormone were independently associated with phosphate reabsorption, whereas Ln(iFGF-23) was not, after adjustment for age. Conclusions: Abnormalities in phosphate regulatory pathways are disturbed early in CKD. While iFGF-23 is associated with phosphate excretion on univariate analyses, sKl demonstrates a significant association with phosphate reabsorption independent of iFGF-23, and this relationship deserves further exploration.

Project description:Cellular senescence is an irreversible cell growth arrest and is associated with aging and age-related diseases. High plasma phosphate (Pi) and deficiency of Klotho contribute to aging and kidney fibrosis, a pathological feature in the aging kidney and chronic kidney disease. This study examined the interactive role of Pi and Klotho in kidney senescence and fibrosis. Homozygous Klotho hypomorphic mice had high plasma Pi, undetectable Klotho in plasma and kidney, high senescence with massive collagen accumulation in kidney tubules, and fibrin deposits in peritubular capillaries. To examine the Pi effect on kidney senescence, a high (2%) Pi diet was given to wild-type mice. One week of high dietary Pi mildly increased plasma Pi, and upregulated kidney p16/p21 expression, but did not significantly decrease Klotho. Two weeks of high Pi intake led to increase in plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, and decrease in kidney Klotho, but still without detectable increase in kidney fibrosis. More prolonged dietary Pi for 12 weeks exacerbated kidney senescence and fibrosis; more so in heterozygous Klotho hypomorphic mice compared to wild-type mice, and in mice with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on high Pi diet compared to CKD mice fed a normal Pi diet. In cultured kidney tubular cells, high Pi directly induced cellular senescence, injury and epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and enhanced H2O2-induced cellular senescence and injury, which were abrogated by Klotho. Fucoidan, a bioactive molecule with multiple biologic functions including senescence inhibition, blunted Pi-induced cellular senescence, oxidation, injury, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and senescence-associated secretary phenotype. In conclusion, high Pi activates senescence through distinct but interconnected mechanisms: upregulating p16/p21 (early), and elevating plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and downregulating Klotho (late). Klotho may be a promising agent to attenuate senescence and ameliorate age-associated, and Pi-induced kidney degeneration such as kidney fibrosis.
