김근호,나기영,한진석,오윤규,이정상,주권욱,엄재호 대한신장학회 2002 Kidney Research and Clinical Practice Vol.21 No.2

목 적 : 저자들은 임상에서 흔히 사용하면서 대사성 알칼리증을 유발할 수 있는 furosemide와 hydrochlorothiazide를 장기간 투여할 때 발생하는 요 산성화능의 변화를 관찰하고, 이에 동반하여 근위세관 및 헨리고리관의 NHE3와 집합관의 H^(+)-ATPase 단백 발현에 변화가 있는지 조사하고자 하였다. 방 법 : Sprague-Dawley rat에서 수분과 전해질 용액을 자유롭게 섭취시키면서 furosemide12 mg/day/rat 혹은 hydrochlorothiazide 7.5 mg/day/rat을 각각 7일간 지속적 피하 주입시킨 후 신장에서 반정량적 immunoblot 분석을 시행하여 대조군과 비교하였다. 결 과 : Furosemide 투여 후 대조군과 실험군 사이에 체중, 혈청 알도스테론 및 크레아티닌청소율은 차이가 없었다. 요량 및 요 소디움 배설은 furosemide 투여 후 현저하게 증가하였다. 요 pH가 furosemide 투여 후 감소하였고, 요 암모늄 배설은 furosemide 투여 후 증가하였다. 반정량적 immunoblot 분석 결과 furosemide 투여 후 신 피질의 NHE3 발현에 유의한 변화는없었으나, 신 외수질의 NHE3 발현은 실험군(182±25%)에서 대조군(100±25%)에 비해 증가하였다(p<0.05). 또한, H^(+)-ATPase B1 subunit 발현은 furosemide 투여 후 신 피질(대조군100±13%, 실험군 178±11%, p<0.01)과 신 외수질(대조군 100±29%, 실험군 239±24%, p<0.05)에서 모두 증가하였다. Hydrochlorothiazide 투여 실험에서도 요량 및 요 소디움 배설의 증가와 요 pH의 감소를 확인하였다. 신 피질과 외수질의 NHE3 발현은 hydrochlorothiazide투여 후 변화 없었으나, H^(+)-ATPase B1 subunit 발현은 신 피질(대조군 100±24%, 실험군212±27%, p<0.05)과 신 외수질(대조군 100±13%, 실험군 194±13%, p<0.01)에서 모두 증가하였다. 결 론 : 장기간 furosemide 혹은 hydrochlorothiazide 투여에 의해 원위 요 산성화 능력의 항진을 확인하였고, 이는 집합관 H^(+)-ATPase 단백 발현이 증가하여 발생한 결과로 설명할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다. Purpose : Commonly used diuretics such as furosemide and hydrochlorothiazide may cause metabolic alkalosis by increasing proton secretion from distal nephron. We evaluated changes in urinary acidification and abundance of proton-secreting transporters in response to chronic subcutaneous infusion of diuretics. Methods : Osmotic minipumps were implanted into Sprague-Dawley rats to deliver 12 mg/day furoemide or hydrochlorothiazide 7.5 mg/day for 7 days. All animals were offered tap water and a solution containing 0.8% NaCl and 0.1% KCl as drinking fluid. Results : Compared with vehicle-infused controls, diuretic and natriuretic responses were evident from furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide infusion. However, there were no changes in body weight, serum aldosterone and creatinine clearance between diureticinfused( n=6) and control(n=6) rats. In both furosemide- infused and hydrochlorothiazide-infused rats, urine pH was significantly lowered compared with controls. Furosemide-infused rats showed significantly larger excretion of urinary ammonium. Semiquantitative immunoblotting was carried out from rat kidneys to investigate abundance of proximal tubule or medullary thick ascending limb Na^(+)/H^(+) exchanger type 3(NHE3) and collecting duct H^(+)- ATPase using specific polyclonal antibodies to NHE3 and H^(+)-ATPase B1 subunit, respectively. The abundance of NHE3 from cortical homogenates was not changed by either furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide infusion. However, the abundance of NHE3 from outer medullary homogenates was increased by furosemide infusion. The H^(+)-ATPase B1 subunit abundance was increased by furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide infusion in both cortical and outer medullary homogenates. Conculsion : These increases in the abundance of proton-secreting transporters may account for the enhanced distal urinary acidification in response to chronic diuretic administration.

정상인에서 옥시토신의 항이뇨 작용

주권욱,전은실,오윤규,김근호,한진석,김성권,이정상 대한신장학회 2002 Kidney Research and Clinical Practice Vol.21 No.2

배 경 : 옥시토신은 바소프레신과 매우 유사한 구조의 호르몬으로서, 과거부터 항이뇨 효과가 있을 것으로 생각하였으나, 최근에야 체외실험을 통하여 옥시토신의 항이뇨 작용이 증명되었다. 인체에서도 옥시토신이 항이뇨 호르몬으로 작용할 가능성이 있지만 아직 분명하지 않다. 저자들은 정상인에게 옥시토신 또는 desmopressin(dDAVP)을 투여하여 인체에서 옥시토신의 항이뇨 효과를 직접적으로 검증하고자 하였다. 방 법: 신기능 장애의 증거가 없는 건강한 성인 남자 10명을 대상으로 기저상태와 옥시토신(20 mU/hour로 정주) 또는 dDAVP(2 μg을 피하 주사)를 투여한 후 2시간 동안 수집한 요에서 요량, 요 삼투질농도, 자유수분 청소율 등을 측정하였고, 요 전해질 배설의 변화를 함께 관찰하였다. 결 과 : 혈청 전해질이나 삼투질농도는 옥시토신 또는 dDAVP 투여 후에 기저상태에 비해 유의한 변화가 없었다. 2시간 요량은 기저상태 446±75 mL로부터, dDAVP 투여 후 92±9 mL로 감소하였고(p<0.05), 옥시토신 투여 후에는 289±53 mL로 변화하였다. 요 삼투질농도는 기저상태 223±25.0 mOsm/kg에서, dDAVP 투여 후 936±34 mOsm/kg 및 옥시토신 투여 후427±63 mOsm/kg로 모두 증가하였다(p<0.05). 자유수분 청소율은 기저상태 110±51 mL/2hour로부터, dDAVP 투여 후 -218±28 mL/2 hour, 옥시토신 투여 후 -57±51 mL/2 hour로 각각 감소하였다(p<0.05). 요나트륨분획배설율(FENa)을 포함한 다른 요 전해질 배설의 유의한 변화는 없었다. 결 론 : 옥시토신이 정상 성인 남자에서 요 삼투질농도의 증가 및 자유수분 청소율의 저하를유발함을 확인하였으며, 이는 옥시토신이 인체에서도 항이뇨 작용이 있음을 시사하는 결과이다. 그러나 생리적인 농도에서 옥시토신이 어떤 역할을 할 것인가와 그 작용기전은 앞으로 규명되어야 할 과제이다. Background : The antidiuretic action of oxytocin in human has been controversial. To investigate whether oxytocin directly acts on water balance in human, we evaluated the parameters of urinary concentration in response to administration of oxytocin in ten healthy male volunteers. Methods : Oxytocin was infused intravenously at a rate of 20 mU/hour for 2.5 hours and urine was collected during the last 2 hours of oxytocin infusion. Changes in urine volume, urine osmolality, excretions of urine electrolytes and free water clearance after the administrartion of oxytocin were compared with the baseline data. Results : The changes in the levels of serum electrolytes and osmolality after the administration of oxytocin were not significant compared with the baseline data. The volume of 2 hours' urine were 446±75 mL and 289±53 mL in the basal state and after the administration of oxytocin, respectively. The urine osmolality was increased significantly by the infusion of oxytocin(427±63 mOsm/kg) compared with that in the basal state(223±25 mOsm/kg)(p< 0.05). The free water clearance was 110±51 mL/2 hours in the basal state and decreased significantly to -57±51 mL/2 hours(p<0.05). Conclusion : We conclude that administration of oxytocin to normal men enhances urinary concentration, evidenced by increased urinary osmolality and decreased free water clearance. In human, oxytocin may play an important role in the regulation of renal water excretion as an antidiuretic hormone. (Korean J Nephrol 2002;21(2):251-258)

Alcohol can cause rhabdomyolysis by either direct toxicity or associated metabolic abnormality such as hypophosphatemia and hypokalemia. It can also predispose to or cause trauma, seizures, or coma- induced ischemic pressure necrosis. In order to investigate the clinical features of acute renal failure caused by alcohol induced rhabdomyolysis, we reviewed the medical records of the 12 patients. All patients had been drinking much amounts of alcohol for several years. All patients showed elevation of muscle enzyme such as creatine phosphokinase, lactic dehydrogenase, aspartate transaminase and blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine. Predisposing factors of rhabdomyolysis were ischemic compression due to unconsciousness and dehydration(2 cases), and hypophosphatemia and dehydration(1 case), seizure and dehydration(1 case), and only severe dehydration(3 cases). Initial symptoms were painful swelling at lesion site(5 cases), abdominal pain(2 cases), general ache(2 cases), leg pain without swelling(1 case), dyspnea(1case), and lethargy(1 case). Seven patients developed delirium tremens during recovery stage. Eight patients showed oliguric acute renal failure and 8 patients were treated with hemodialysis. Complications were disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC)(3 cases), compartment syndrome(2 cases), capillary leak syndrome and DIC(1 case). One of 12 patients died of disseminated intravascular coagulation and other patients showed complete recovery of renal function.

Background: In many countries, nephrologists follow clinical practice guidelines for mineral bone disorders to control secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) associated with abnormal serum calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) levels in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). The Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) Guidelines have long been used in Korea, and this study was undertaken to investigate the current status of serum Ca and P control in MHD patients. Methods: Data were collected from a total of 1,018 patients undergoing MHD without intercurrent illness, in 17 hemodialysis centers throughout the country. Serum levels of Ca, P, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) were measured over 1 year, and the average values were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Serum levels of Ca, P, and the Ca×P product were 9.1±0.7mg/dL, 5.3±1.4mg/dL, and 48.0±13.6mg2/dL2, respectively. However, the percentages of patients with Ca, P, and Ca × P product levels within the KDOQI guideline ranges were 58.7%, 51.0%, and 70.7%, respectively. Of the 1,018 patients, 270 (26.5%) had iPTH >300pg/mL (uncontrolled SHPT), whereas 435 patients (42.7%) showed iPTH <150pg/mL. Patients with uncontrolled SHPT had significantly higher values of serum Ca, P, and Ca×P product than those with iPTH ≤300pg/mL. Conclusion: Despite the current clinical practice guidelines, SHPT seems to be inadequately controlled in many MHD patients. Uncontrolled SHPT was associated with higher levels of serum Ca, P, and Ca × P product, suggestive of the importance of SHPT management.

Hepcidin as a Biomarker of Cardiorenal Syndrome

Gheun-Ho Kim 대한의학회 2020 Journal of Korean medical science Vol.35 No.1

Anemia is frequently accompanied with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), and its prevalence was reported to be 45% among 2,198 non-dialysis CKD patients from stage 1 to 5 in Korea.1 Treatment of anemia is very important in CKD because anemia itself can cause high-output heart failure and lead to cardiovascular mortality. Thus, anemia may be the common denominator in progression of cardiorenal syndrome. The importance of managing cardiorenal syndrome is recently reemerging because CKD and heart failure are frequently associated and influence each other in a vicious cycle of comorbidity that increases the risk of mortality.

조기위암에 병발한 미세변화 신증후군양 IgA 신병증 1 예 : 국내외 보고 예 고찰

김진철,이상무,구자룡,정성원,김우중,이현순,조성태,윤종우,오흥영,채동완,김근호,노정우,김형직,전로원,육청미 대한내과학회 2001 대한내과학회지 Vol.61 No.3

The nephrotic syndrome has been reported in association with a wide variety of neoplastic disease. The relationship between early gastric cancer and glomerulonephritis has not been well elucidated. Only 6 cases (5 cases in Korea and 1 case in Japan) have been reported associated with glomerulonephritis by this time. 5 cases in Korea included three cases of membranous glomerulonephritis, one case of IgA nephropathy and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. Four out of six cases including presented case were mucin secreting adenocarcinomas of stomach. Minimal change disease associated with solid tumors has been reported very rarely. Three cases of colon adenocarcinoma have been reported in association with minimal change disease by this time. Complete remission of nephrotic syndrome with tumor resection without corticosteroid therapy was reported in one of three cases, but two of them had to be on corticosteroid therapy in addition to tumor resection to get complete remissions. We report a 44-year-old man case with nephrotic syndrome associated with early gastric cancer. Renal biopsy findings were indicative of minimal change disease but with scanty IgA deposition. Low grade IgA nephropathy was suggested. Endoscopic biopsy on stomach demonstrated the adenocarcinoma with signet ring cells. Serum IgA concentration was 543 mg/dL, and decreased to 336 mg/dL after tumor resection. But, owing to persistent proteinuria and acute renal failure complicated, corticosteroid therapy was applied on the 30th day after operation. So we could not prove definite relationship between early gastric cancer and the development of IgA nephropathy mimicking minimal change disease. But, it is regarded that normalized serum IgA level and the complete remission of nephrotic syndrome with tumor resection and corticosteroid therapy can be indirect evidences for the relationship between early gastric cancer and the development of IgA nephropathy mimicking minimal change disease.(Korean J Med 61:286-292, 2001)

Review : Gaps between Global Guidelines and Local Practices in CKD-MBD

( Gheun Ho Kim ) 대한전해질학회 2014 Electrolytes & Blood Pressure Vol.12 No.2

The term ‘chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder’ (CKD-MBD) is a new term that, in contrast to the old term ‘renal osteodystrophy’, implies a systemic syndrome associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This new terminology is in line with previous studies that show elevated serum calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels associated with increased cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. In order to improve outcomes in patients with CKD-MBD, many countries have developed clinical practice guidelines. Globally, the Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative (KDOQI) and Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines are the most commonly used. However, whether these global guidelines can be successfully implemented on a local level needs to be studied. Differences in medical care and social factors between countries may limit the generalizability of global guidelines. Reports from the Korean registry and the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS) suggest that many dialysis patients are not within the target ranges recommended by the KDOQI and KDIGO guidelines for serum calcium, phosphorus, and PTH, suggesting gaps between global guidelines and local practices. Clinical studies with Korean CKD-MBD patients are necessary to compare Korean practices and outcomes to those suggested by global guidelines and to determine the target serum mineral levels associated with the best local outcomes.
