ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Glomerular hyperfiltration, initiating development of obesity-related glomerulopathy, results in an enlargement of the glomeruli and unsealing of the filtration barrier. It can be followed by adaptive focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of the study was to determine the expression pattern of lipid metabolism and selected kidney damage markers in obese adolescents and to identify potential factors which can predict CKD.METHODS:
The study group consisted of 142 adolescents with a BMI z-score > 2. Sixty-two healthy and normal-weight individuals served as controls. The factors associated with the rate of glomerular filtration in obese adolescents were assessed by linear regression methods using univariate and multivariate analyses. The risk of developing CKD was estimated using the Fisher's exact test.RESULTS:
The study group was divided into "elevated," "normal," and "decreased" glomerular filtration rate (GFR) patients. Increased urine galectin-3 (Gal-3) concentration was diagnosed in all patients. "Decreased GFR" subjects expressed increased urine concentration of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and daily megalin excretion. Thirty-nine study participants developed CKD. Increased uric acid (UA) concentration was associated with CKD development both in "normal" and "decreased GFR" patients. Additionally, in "normal" GFR patients, increased concentrations of cholesterol (Ch), triglycerides (TG), and NGAL were associated with CKD.CONCLUSIONS:
Increased serum concentrations of Ch, TG, and UA and increased urine concentration of NGAL might predict CKD development in obese adolescents with normal and decreased GFR. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.Palabras clave
