Mitochondrial dysregulation and oxidative stress in patients with chronic kidney disease

ABSTRACT: Several reports have focused on the identification of biological elements involved in the development of abnormal systemic biochemical alterations in chronic kidney disease, but this abundant literature results most of the time fragmented. To better define the cellular machinery associated to this condition, we employed an innovative high-throughput approach based on a whole transcriptomic analysis and classical biomolecular methodologies. The genomic screening of peripheral blood mononuclear cells revealed that 44 genes were up-regulated in both chronic kidney disease patients in conservative treatment (CKD, n=9) and hemodialysis (HD, n=17) compared to healthy subjects (NORM) (p<0.001, FDR=1%). Functional analysis demonstrated that 11/44 genes were involved in the oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS). Western blotting for COXI and COXIV, key constituents of the complex IV of OXPHOS, performed on an independent testing-group (12 NORM, 10 CKD and 14 HD) confirmed the elevated synthesis of these subunits in CKD/HD patients. However, complex IV activity was significantly reduced in CKD/HD patients compared to NORM (p<0.01). Finally, CKD/HD patients presented higher reactive oxygen species and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine levels compared to NORM. Taken together these results suggest, for the first time, that CKD/HD patients may have an impaired mitochondrial respiratory system and this condition may be both the consequence and the cause of an enhanced oxidative stress.

Experiment Overall Design: For microarray analysis, we studied subjects included in the training group. This population included 8 healthy subjects (NORM), 9 patients with Chronic kidney disease (CKD) on stage II-III (CKD II-III) (mean±SD of estimated GFR by MDRD formula: 41.4±4.3 ml/min) and 17 patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment (HD).All HD patients were stably treated, for at least 1 year, three times a week (4-5 hours per session), using synthetic membrane dialyzers. During the study period, no CKD patients received dialysis treatment. In addition, all patients suffering from infectious diseases, diabetes, chronic lung diseases, neoplasm, or inflammatory diseases and patients receiving antibiotics, corticosteroids, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents were excluded. No patients had symptomatic coronary artery diseases or a family history of premature cardiovascular diseases. For all subjects, 20 ml of whole blood were collected. For HD patient the biological material was obtained at the beginning of the second HD session of the week. PBMC were isolated by density separation over a Ficoll-PaqueTM (GE healthcare, Sweden) gradient (460g for 30 min). Cells were then counted and their viability was assessed by trypan blue exclusion (>90% PBMC were viable). Total RNA was isolated by RNeasy mini kit Qiagen (QIAGEN AG, Basel, Switzerland) from a minimum of 5 milion cryopreserved PBMC. RNA was, then, processed and hybridized to the GeneChip Human Genome Plus 2.0 or U133A oligonucleotide microarray (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA)
