Circulating kidney injury molecule-1 as a biomarker of renal parameters in diabetic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: AIMS/INTRODUCTION:Urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) has been associated with proximal tubular damage in human and animal studies. Although it has been recognized as a biomarker of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease, its significance in the serum remains unclear. Therefore, we examined the relationship of serum and urinary KIM-1 levels with renal parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Serum and urinary KIM-1 levels, together with urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein, were measured in 602 patients with type 2 diabetes and an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m2 . These were then compared with the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio and eGFR. RESULTS:The serum and urinary KIM-1 levels were significantly different among the three (eGFR ≥60, 45-59, <45 mL/min/1.73 m2 ) groups. These levels were positively associated with the albumin-to-creatinine ratio and negatively associated with eGFR. In a multivariate logistic model, both serum and urinary KIM-1 were associated with an increased albumin-to-creatinine ratio (>30 mg/g Cr), but only the serum KIM-1 was associated with a lower eGFR (<60 mL/min/1.73 m2 ), after adjustment for covariates. CONCLUSIONS:Renal parameters appear to be strongly associated with serum KIM-1, and not urinary KIM-1, in patients with type 2 diabetes and an eGFR ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m2 .

Project description:To identify mechanisms associated with sepsis-acute kidney injury based on the expression levels of renal injury biomarkers, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and kidney injury molecule-1 in renal biopsies which may allow the identification of sepsis-acute kidney injury patient subtypes.DesignProspective, clinical laboratory study using "warm" human postmortem sepsis-acute kidney injury kidney biopsies.SettingResearch laboratory at university teaching hospital.SubjectsAdult patients who died of sepsis in the ICU and control patients undergoing tumor nephrectomy.Measurements and main resultsReverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical staining were used to quantify messenger RNA and protein expression levels of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 in the kidney of sepsis-acute kidney injury patients and control subjects. Morphometric analysis was used to quantify renal and glomerular neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 protein levels. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 messenger RNA and protein levels were increased in kidneys of sepsis-acute kidney injury patients compared with control kidney tissue. Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin was localized in the distal tubules, collecting ducts, the adventitia of the renal arterioles, and in the glomerular tufts of renal biopsies from sepsis-acute kidney injury patients. In contrast, kidney injury molecule-1 was localized at the brush border of the proximal tubules. There was no correlation between neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 levels. Furthermore, renal neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 levels were not associated with the extent of renal injury, the severity of critical illness, or serum creatinine levels at either ICU admission or day of expiration. By laser microdissecting glomeruli, followed by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction, we identified heterogenous glomerular neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin production in the kidney of sepsis-acute kidney injury patients.ConclusionWe found differences in the expression of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1 in patients with the same syndrome "sepsis-acute kidney injury" meaning there is no single pathway leading to sepsis-acute kidney injury. This underscores the beliefs that there are many/different pathophysiological pathways that can cause sepsis-acute kidney injury. Hence, patients with criteria that meet the definitions of both acute kidney injury and sepsis can be divided into subtypes based on pathophysiological features.
