Assessment of ELISA-based method for the routine examination of serum indoxyl sulfate in patients with chronic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Indoxyl sulfate (IS), a protein-bound uremic toxin, is associated with kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related complications. Currently, serum IS levels are primarily quantified using mass spectrometry-based methods, which are not feasible for routine clinical examinations.

Methods

The efficiencies of three commercial ELISA kits in determination of serum IS were validated by comparing with ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC)-MS/MS-based method using Bland-Altman analysis. The associations between kidney parameters and serum IS levels determined by ELISA kit from Leadgene and UPLC-MS/MS were evaluated by Spearman correlation coefficient in a CKD validation cohort.

Results

ELISA kit from Leadgene showed clinical agreement with UPLC-MS/MS in the determination of serum IS levels (p = 0.084). In patients with CKD, Spearman's correlation analysis revealed a perfect correlation between the IS levels determined using the Leadgene ELISA kit and UPLC-MS/MS (r = 0.964, p < 0.0001). IS levels determined using the Leadgene ELISA kit were associated with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (r = -0.772, p < 0.0001) and serum creatinine concentration (r = 0.824, p < 0.0001) in patients with CKD, and on dialysis (r = 0.557, p = 0.006).

Conclusions

The Leadgene ELISA kit exhibits comparable efficacy to UPLC-MS/MS in quantifying serum IS levels, supporting that ELISA would be a personalized method for monitoring the dynamic changes in serum IS levels in dialysis patients to prevent the progression of CKD.

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) patients experience skeletal muscle wasting and decreased exercise endurance. Our previous study demonstrated that indoxyl sulfate (IS), a uremic toxin, accelerates skeletal muscle atrophy. The purpose of this study was to examine the issue of whether IS causes mitochondria dysfunction and IS-targeted intervention using AST-120, which inhibits IS accumulation, or mitochondria-targeted intervention using L-carnitine or teneligliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor which retains mitochondria function and alleviates skeletal muscle atrophy and muscle endurance in chronic kidney disease mice.MethodsThe in vitro effect of IS on mitochondrial status was evaluated using mouse myofibroblast cells (C2C12 cell). The mice were divided into sham or 5/6-nephrectomized (CKD) mice group. Chronic kidney disease mice were also randomly assigned to non-treatment group and AST-120, L-carnitine, or teneligliptin treatment groups.ResultsIn C2C12 cells, IS induced mitochondrial dysfunction by decreasing the expression of PGC-1α and inducing autophagy in addition to decreasing mitochondrial membrane potential. Co-incubation with an anti-oxidant, ascorbic acid, L-carnitine, or teneligliptine restored the values to their original state. In CKD mice, the body and skeletal muscle weights were decreased compared with sham mice. Compared with sham mice, the expression of interleukin-6 and atrophy-related factors such as myostatin and atrogin-1 was increased in the skeletal muscle of CKD mice, whereas muscular Akt phosphorylation was decreased. In addition, a reduced exercise capacity was observed for the CKD mice, which was accompanied by a decreased expression of muscular PCG-1α and increased muscular autophagy, as reflected by decreased mitochondria-rich type I fibres. An AST-120 treatment significantly restored these changes including skeletal muscle weight observed in CKD mice to the sham levels accompanied by a reduction in IS levels. An L-carnitine or teneligliptin treatment also restored them to the sham levels without changing IS level.ConclusionsOur results indicate that IS induces mitochondrial dysfunction in skeletal muscle cells and provides a potential therapeutic strategy such as IS-targeted and mitochondria-targeted interventions for treating CKD-induced muscle atrophy and decreased exercise endurance.

Project description:BackgroundProtein-bound uremic toxins are associated with poor outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between indoxyl sulfate (IS), a protein-bound solute, and 90-day mortality in patients with acute kidney injury.MethodsAdults with hospital-acquired AKI (HA-AKI) were enrolled in this prospective cohort study between 2014 and 2015, according to the KDIGO creatinine criteria. The primary end point was all-cause death during follow-up.ResultsThe mean serum IS level in patients with HA-AKI was 2.74 ± 0.75 μg/ml, which was higher than that in healthy subjects (1.73 ± 0.11 μg/ml, P < 0.001) and critically ill patients (2.46 ± 0.35 μg/ml, P = 0.016) but was lower than that in patients with chronic kidney disease (3.07 ± 0.31 μg/ml, P < 0.001). Furthermore, serum IS levels (2.83 ± 0.55 μg/ml) remained elevated in patients with HA-AKI on the seventh day after AKI diagnosis. Patients with HA-AKI were divided into the following two groups according to the median serum IS level: the low-IS group and the high-IS group. A total of 94 (35.9%) patient deaths occurred within 90 days, including 76 (29.0%) in the low-IS group and 112 (42.7%) in the high-IS group (P = 0.019). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the two groups differed significantly with respect to 90-day survival (log-rank P = 0.007), and Cox regression analysis showed that an IS level ≥ 2.74 μg/ml was significantly associated with a 2.0-fold increased risk of death (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 2.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.76 to 4.86; P < 0.001) compared with an IS level < 2.74 μg/ml.ConclusionsSerum IS levels were significantly elevated in patients with HA-AKI compared to those in healthy subjects and critically ill patients and were associated with a worse prognosis of HA-AKI.Trial registrationwww.clinicaltrials.gov NCT 00953992.
