简要总结
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) includes several metabolic diseases all characterized by high sugar levels in the blood. Although diabetic nephropathy is widespread, its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain poorly understood and, so far, little progress has been made to prevent the development of diabetic nephropathy and to delay kidney functions decline.
Increasing amount of data based on animal studies support the pathogenic role of tissue hypoxia in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy. Blood Oxygenation-Level Dependent Magnetic Resonance Imaging (BOLD-MRI) is increasingly used in research to measure cortical and medullary oxygenation in a non-invasive manner. Interestingly, in two cross-sectional clinical studies, we have recently found a positive correlation between high circulating blood glucose levels and cortical R2* levels in type 2 DM patients. This discovery suggests that an increase in glycemia might acutely decrease renal tissue oxygenation.
The goal of this study is to investigate the impact of serum glucose on renal tissue oxygenation in healthy subjects and subjects with glucose intolerance.
详细描述
Therefore, we plan to recruit 10 healthy subjects and 10 glucose intolerant patients with preserved kidney functions and to perform repetitive BOLD-MRI, before and after the administration of IV glucose. This will allow us to study the influence of hyperglycemia as a single factor, regardless of inflammation, oxidative stress and medical treatments, such as oral hypoglycemic agents and/or insulin, which are confounding factors present in all DM patients.
The main hypothesis of the project is that acute hyperglycemia could be partially responsible for renal tissue hypoxia detected in diabetic nephropathy cases.
In this study we will include 60 participants with a family history of diabetes, with a Body Mass Index (BMI) over 25 kg / m2 and/or having glucose intolerance. Each participant will undergo an initial glucose tolerance test. In total, we will select 10 participants with impaired glucose tolerance and 10 healthy subjects (matched for sex and age), to be included as control group.
Selected subjects will return for a third visit at CHUV (V3): they will start at home with an oral hydration protocol (load dose of 3 ml / kg at 8:00 am, followed by 1 ml / kg every hour between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm to avoid as much as possible changes in kidney perfusion). Patients will arrive at the Department of Nephrology and Hypertension (CHUV) at 11.00 am. In this occasion, two catheters will be placed into each patient's arm. Later, participants will be escorted to the Radiology Department to undergo four renal oxygenation imaging (between 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm) by the mean of BOLD-MRI technique. During this period, patients and control subjects will lie down and are not allowed to stand up. At T0, they will receive a bolus (0.75 ml / kg) of glucose 20%. Subsequently, four BOLD-MRI scans, together with blood tests, will be performed at T0, T1 (+10 min), T2 (+20 min), T3 (+30 min). Sodium intake will be measured by 24 hours urinary collection the day before V3 (sodium is known to influence R2*).
