Primary hyperoxaluria (PH) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by the functional defect of alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT) enzyme in the liver and it is characterized by the deposition of diffuse calcium oxalate crystals. A 38-year-old male patient presented with history of recurrent nephrolithiasis and has received chronic hemodialysis treatment for 2 years. Cadaveric renal transplantation was applied to the case. The patient was reoperated on postoperative day 13 because of the collection surrounding the urethra. During this operation, kidney biopsy was made due to late decrease in creatinine levels. Deposition of diffuse oxalate crystal was detected in allograft kidney biopsy, whereas in the 0-hour biopsy there were no oxalate crystals. Oxalate level was found to be high in a 24-hour urine specimen (118 mg/L, normal level: 7–44 mg/L). The patient was identified with primary hyperoxaluria and followed up in terms of systemic oxalate deposition as well as allograft kidney. In the kidney biopsy taken after 18 months, we detected that oxalate crystals almost entirely disappeared. In our case, bilateral preretinal, intraretinal, and intravascular diffuse oxalate crystals were detected, and argon laser photocoagulation treatments were needed for choroidal and retinal neovascularization. Repeated ophthalmic examinations showed the regressive nature of oxalate depositions. In the 18th month, fundus examination and fluorescein angiography revealed that oxalate crystals were significantly regressed. To increase the quality of life and slow down the systemic effects of oxalosis, kidney-only transplantation is beneficial. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The pig has been extensively used in biomedical research because of the similarities in organ structure and function to humans. It is desirable to have an animal model of oxaluria and urolithiasis with physiological, anatomical and nutritional characteristics that more closely resemble those of man. In this study we determined if feeding pigs trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline (HP) increased urine oxalate levels and if it would serve as a model for human hyperoxaluria and stone disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male Yorkshire-Durox cross-bred pigs were fed HP for up to 20 days. Urine was periodically collected and analyzed for oxalate levels and the presence of crystalluria. After 20 days of feeding the kidneys were removed and examined grossly and microscopically for indications of injury, crystal deposition and stone formation. RESULTS: Feeding pigs 10% HP (weight per weight HP/food) produced hyperoxaluria, which reached a maximum and leveled off by day 6. Urine oxalate remained near this level until the study ended at 20 days regardless of the further increase in HP to 20% of the weight of the food. When the kidneys were removed and grossly examined, calcium oxalate encrustations were observed on multiple papillary tips. Histopathological observation of the papillary tissue showed tissue injury and crystal deposition. CONCLUSIONS: Pigs fed HP have hyperoxaluria and calcium oxalate crystalluria, and calcium oxalate papillary deposits form that may be precursors of kidney stones. The use of the pig as a model of human hyperoxaluria and stone formation should prove ideal for studies of these human diseases. 相似文献

Abstract: Formation of calcium oxalate stones tends to increase with age and begins from the attachment of a crystal formed in the cavity of renal tubules to the surface of renal tubular epithelial cells. Though most of the crystals formed in the cavity of renal tubules are discharged as is in the urine, in healthy people, crystals that attach to the surface of renal tubular epithelial cells are thought to be digested by macrophages and/or lysosomes inside of cells. However, in individuals with hyperoxaluria or crystal urine, renal tubular cells are injured and crystals easily become attached to them. Various factors are thought to be involved in renal tubular cell injury. Crystals attached to the surface of renal tubular cells are taken into the cells ( crystal–cell interaction ). And then the crystal and crystal aggregates grow, and finally a stone is formed. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the potential influence of cranberry juice on urinary biochemical and physicochemical risk factors associated with the formation of calcium oxalate kidney stones, as this product might affect the chemical composition of urine.SUBJECTS AND METHODS
Urinary variables were assessed in a randomized cross‐over trial in 20 South African men (students) with no previous history of kidney stones. The first group of 10 subjects drank 500 mL of cranberry juice diluted with 1500 mL tap water for 2 weeks, while the second group drank 2000 mL of tap water for the same period. This was followed by a 2‐week ‘washout’ period before the two groups crossed over. During the experimental phase subjects kept a 3‐day food diary to assess their dietary and fluid intakes; 24‐h urine samples were collected at baseline and on day 14 of the trial periods, and analysed using modern laboratory techniques. Urine analysis data were used to calculate the relative urinary supersaturations of calcium oxalate, uric acid and calcium phosphate. Data were assessed statistically by analysis of variance.RESULTS
The ingestion of cranberry juice significantly and uniquely altered three key urinary risk factors. Oxalate and phosphate excretion decreased while citrate excretion increased. In addition, there was a decrease in the relative supersaturation of calcium oxalate, which tended to be significantly lower than that induced by water alone.CONCLUSION
Cranberry juice has antilithogenic properties and, as such, deserves consideration as a conservative therapeutic protocol in managing calcium oxalate urolithiasis.8.

PURPOSE: Oxalate, a metabolic end product, is a major constituent of majority of renal stones. Previous studies with LLC-PK1 cells, a line of proximal renal epithelial cells of porcine origin, have shown that oxalate produces time and concentration dependent effects on the growth and viability of these cells. We assessed the possibility that oxalate may be toxic to HK-2 cells, a line of human proximal renal epithelial cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: HK-2 cells were maintained in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum and antibiotics. Cells were exposed to oxalate for various intervals. Trypan blue exclusion criteria were used to assess membrane integrity, cell morphology was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining and crystal violet staining was used to measure cell density. DNA synthesis was measured by [3H]-thymidine incorporation and superoxide production was measured by the nitroblue tetrazolium reduction method. RESULTS: Exposure of HK-2 cells to oxalate produced time and concentration dependent increase in the membrane permeability to trypan blue and changes in the light microscopic appearance of the cells. Long-term exposure to oxalate resulted in an increase in DNA synthesis and alterations in cell viability with net cell loss after exposure to high oxalate concentrations. CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge the results provide the first direct demonstration of the toxic effects of oxalate in HK-2 cells, a line of human renal epithelial cells, and suggest that hyperoxaluria may contribute to renal tubular damage associated with calcium oxalate stone disease. 相似文献

Objective: We investigated and compared the effects of taraxasterol, aqueous extract of T. officinale (AET) aerial part, and potassium citrate (PC) on calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystallization in vitro.Materials and methods: CaOx crystallization was induced by adding sodium oxalate to synthetic urine. Taraxasterol (2.5, 5, 7.5 and 12.5?μg/mL), extract (1, 2, 4 and 8?mg/mL), and PC (100, 150, 200 and 350?mg/mL) were subjected to anti-crystallization activities. The absorbance and %inhibition of nucleation of CaOx crystals were evaluated by spectrophotometer at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60?min and the number and morphology of crystals were studied by light microscopy after 60?min.Results: Presence of taraxasterol, extract and PC decreased absorbance in experimental samples compared to control, significantly. The nucleation of crystals is inhibited by taraxasterol, extract, and PC (26–64, 55–63 and 60–70%, respectively). The number of CaOx crystals were decreased in presence of taraxasterol (p?.01), extract (p?.001), and PC (p?.001) in a dose-dependent manner. Presence of taraxasterol, extract, and PC decreased the number of CaC2O4 monohydrate, while increased CaC2O4 dihydrate crystals, significantly. Also, the diameter of CaC2O4 dihydrate crystals was decreased in presence of taraxasterol, extract and PC, significantly.Conclusions: This research indicated that taraxasterol and extract have anti-crystallization activities and effectiveness of the extract is more potent than taraxasterol. It could be because of another constituent in the extract with the synergistic effect. 相似文献

香豆素对实验性大鼠草酸钙结石形成的影响 总被引:16,自引:4,他引:12
应用偏光显微镜和解剖镜观察VitaminK(Vit-K)拮抗剂香豆素对大鼠草酸钙结石形成影响,观察到香豆素显著地增加大鼠肾内草酸钙结晶数目,肾组织匀浆中草酸含量(1.14±0.73mg/g)也显著高于对照组(0.036±0.15mg/g,P<0.05)。当停用香豆素后,肾内草酸钙结晶数又可减少。推测香豆素可拮抗Vit-K使得肾内依赖Vit-K的羧化作用减弱,肾内草酸钙抑制物Nephrocalcin(Nc)中谷氨酸转化成γ-羧基谷氨酸(Gla)减少,Nc与钙结合减少,对草酸钙结晶抑制活性降低,易发生草酸钙结石。提示Vit-K缺乏可促进肾结石形成。 相似文献

We report two cases of acute renal failure in patients witharteriosclerosis obliterans treated by intravenous infusionof naftidrofuryl oxalate. At renal biopsy the histological lesionswere identical with those found in ARF due to hyperoxaluriaof other causes, revealing tubular epithelial necrosis and massiveintra-tubular precipitation of calcium oxalate monohydrate (Cl)crystals. A second study was then conducted in four other patientswith arteriosclerosis obliterans to evaluate serum and urinarylevels of oxalate, and crystalluria during the intravenous administrationof 800 mg of naftidrofuryl oxalate per day for 10 days. Duringthe course of treatment, the serum and urinary oxalate levelswere found to increase substantially, with the gradual onsetof massive Cl crystalluria. These results indicate that naftidrofuryloxalate was responsible for the acute renal failure in the firsttwo patients. High intravenous doses of naftidrofuryl oxalatemust be used cautiously, with close surveillance of renal function. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Oxalate bioavailability is an important determinant of whether the consumption of a particular food is a high risk in individuals predisposed to kidney stones. We estimated and compared oxalate absorption from a high oxalate containing legume (black beans) and a high oxalate containing nut (almonds). We also compared an isotope method using extrinsically labeled oxalate and an oxalate load method to assess oxalate absorption. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Six male and 5 female subjects participated in the 4 oxalate load tests, namely almonds, almonds with 20 mg C2-oxalic acid, black beans and black beans with 20 mg C2-oxalic acid. Each treatment provided a total of 120 mg oxalate, after which timed urine samples were collected for the analysis of oxalate, calcium and creatinine. RESULTS: Average oxalate absorption from the 2 almond treatments (5.9%) using the oxalate load method was significantly higher than that from the 2 black bean treatments (1.8%) during the 24-hour post-oxalate load collection period. In contrast, C2-oxalic acid absorption from the almond (7.9%) and black bean (8.6%) treatments did not significantly differ. CONCLUSIONS: The higher oxalate absorption from almonds than from black beans suggests that the relative amount of soluble and insoluble oxalate in food has an important role in the determination of oxalate absorption. Since extrinsically provided C2-oxalate and oxalate naturally occurring in the high oxalate test foods appeared to be differentially absorbed, the data do not support the use of extrinsically labeled oxalate to assess food oxalate absorption. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Tamm-Horsfall protein is believed to inhibit calcium oxalate crystallization, aggregation or adhesion to the renal epithelium. We determined whether ethylene glycol induced urolithiasis changes the expression of renal and urinary Tamm-Horsfall protein. For comparison the expression of another calcium oxalate inhibitor, osteopontin, was also analyzed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male rats were treated with 0.75% ethylene glycol plus an AIN-76 diet (Dyets, Bethlehem Pennsylvania) (ethylene glycol group) or standard rat chow and water (control group) for up to 8 weeks (6 per group for 8 weeks and 3 per group for 3 days to 6 weeks). Kidneys and urine (8 weeks only) were harvested and analyzed by Northern and Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Tamm-Horsfall protein message and protein (membrane bound form) were decreased, while those of osteopontin were increased in the kidneys of rats treated with ethylene glycol for 8 weeks. As judged by immunochemistry Tamm-Horsfall protein and osteopontin were consistently present in a few tubules in rats in the ethylene glycol and control groups, respectively. In urine expression of the free form of Tamm-Horsfall protein (approximately 75 kDa.) was decreased but detectable in ethylene glycol treated rats. Although readily detected in tissue, osteopontin was not detected in the urine of control or ethylene glycol treated rats. In the time course experiment Tamm-Horsfall protein did not decrease until 4 weeks, when calcium oxalate crystals were detectable in the kidneys of treated rats. In contrast, osteopontin was increased, although inconsistently, beginning at 3 days. CONCLUSIONS: Unlike other calcium oxalate inhibitors, such as osteopontin, renal message and protein for Tamm-Horsfall protein was decreased in ethylene glycol treated rats. Tamm-Horsfall protein expression did not decrease until aggregates of crystals had been deposited in the kidneys, while osteopontin expression began to increase almost immediately. Comparisons of the data on kidneys and urine obtained by RNA or protein blot analysis and immunochemistry underscore the need to examine tissue and urine by multiple techniques to obtain the most accurate assessment of how protein expression is changed by a given treatment. 相似文献
