ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA)-mediated homeostatic mechanism links to how sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) slow progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and may link to how tolvaptan slows renal function decline in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). AREA COVERED JGA-mediated homeostatic mechanism has been hypothesized based on investigations of tubuloglomerular feedback and renin-angiotensin system. We reviewed clinical trials of SGLT2is and tolvaptan to assess the relationship between this mechanism and these drugs. EXPERT OPINION When sodium load to macula densa (MD) increases, MD increases adenosine production, constricting afferent arteriole (Af-art) and protecting glomeruli. Concurrently, MD signaling suppresses renin secretion, increases urinary sodium excretion, and counterbalances reduced sodium filtration. However, when there is marked increase in sodium load per-nephron, as in advanced CKD, MD adenosine production increases, relaxing Af-art and maintaining sodium homeostasis at the expense of glomeruli. The beneficial effects of tolvaptan on renal function in ADPKD may also depend on the JGA-mediated homeostatic mechanisms since tolvaptan inhibits sodium reabsorption in the thick ascending limb.The JGA-mediated homeostatic mechanism regulates Af-arts, constricting to relaxing according to homeostatic needs. Understanding this mechanism may contribute to the development of pharmacotherapeutic compounds and better care for patients with CKD.Palavras-chave
