Metabolomic Alterations Associated with Cause of CKD.
Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : CJASN 2017 November 8
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Causes of CKD differ in prognosis and treatment. Metabolomic indicators of CKD cause may provide clues regarding the different physiologic processes underlying CKD development and progression.
DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS & MEASUREMENTS: Metabolites were quantified from serum samples of participants in the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study, a randomized controlled trial of dietary protein restriction and BP control, using untargeted reverse phase ultraperformance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry quantification. Known, nondrug metabolites ( n =687) were log-transformed and analyzed to discover associations with CKD cause (polycystic kidney disease, glomerular disease, and other cause). Discovery was performed in Study B, a substudy of MDRD with low GFR ( n =166), and replication was performed in Study A, a substudy of MDRD with higher GFR ( n =423).
RESULTS: Overall in MDRD, average participant age was 51 years and 61% were men. In the discovery study (Study B), 29% of participants had polycystic kidney disease, 28% had glomerular disease, and 43% had CKD of another cause; in the replication study (Study A), the percentages were 28%, 24%, and 48%, respectively. In the discovery analysis, adjusted for demographics, randomization group, body mass index, hypertensive medications, measured GFR, log-transformed proteinuria, and estimated protein intake, seven metabolites (16-hydroxypalmitate, kynurenate, homovanillate sulfate, N2,N2-dimethylguanosine, hippurate, homocitrulline, and 1,5-anhydroglucitol) were associated with CKD cause after correction for multiple comparisons ( P <0.0008). Five of these metabolite associations (16-hydroxypalmitate, kynurenate, homovanillate sulfate, N2,N2-dimethylguanosine, and hippurate) were replicated in Study A ( P <0.007), with all replicated metabolites exhibiting higher levels in polycystic kidney disease and lower levels in glomerular disease compared with CKD of other causes.
CONCLUSIONS: Metabolomic profiling identified several metabolites strongly associated with cause of CKD.
