There is still a lack of established biomarkers that help to identify patients at high risk for short and long-term complications. The aim of the current study was to evaluate plasma kynurenine as a predictive biomarker for CI-AKI and long-term complications, measured by the combined endpoint "major adverse kidney events" (MAKE) up to 120 days after CM application. Methods: In this prospective cohort study 245 patients undergoing coronary angiography were analyzed. Blood samples were obtained at baseline, 24h and 48h after contrast media (CM) application to diagnose CI-AKI. Patients were followed for 120 days for adverse clinical events including death, the need for dialysis, and a doubling of plasma creatinine. Occurrence of any of these events was summarized in the combined endpoint MAKE. Results: Preinterventional plasma kynurenine was not associated with CI-AKI. Patients who later developed MAKE displayed significantly increased preinterventional plasma kynurenine levels (p<0.0001). ROC analysis revealed that preinterventional kynurenine is highly predictive for MAKE (AUC=0.838; p<0.0001). The optimal cutoff was found at >= 3.5 mu mol/L. Using this cutoff, the Kaplan-Meier estimator demonstrated that concentrations of plasma kynurenine >= 3.5 mu mol/L were significantly associated with a higher prevalence of MAKE until follow up (p<0.0001). This association remained significant in multivariate Cox regression models adjusted for relevant factors of long-term renal outcome. Conclusion: Preinterventional plasma kynurenine might serve as a highly predictive biomarker for MAKE up to 120 days after coronary angiography.}, language = {en} } @article{ReichetzedervonWebskyTsuprykovetal.2017, author = {Reichetzeder, Christoph and von Websky, Karoline and Tsuprykov, Oleg and Samarin, Azadeh Mohagheghi and Falke, Luise Gabriele and Putra, Sulistyo Emantoko Dwi and Hasan, Ahmed Abdallah Abdalrahman Mohamed and Antonenko, Viktoriia and Curato, Caterina and Rippmann, Joerg and Klein, Thomas and Hocher, Berthold}, title = {Head-to-head comparison of structurally unrelated dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors in the setting of renal ischemia reperfusion injury}, series = {British journal of pharmacology : journal of The British Pharmacological Society}, volume = {174}, journal = {British journal of pharmacology : journal of The British Pharmacological Society}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {0007-1188}, doi = {10.1111/bph.13822}, pages = {2273 -- 2286}, year = {2017}, abstract = {BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Results regarding protective effects of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors in renal ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) are conflicting. Here we have compared structurally unrelated DPP4 inhibitors in a model of renal IRI. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH IRI was induced in uninephrectomizedmale rats by renal artery clamping for 30 min. The shamgroup was uninephrectomized but not subjected to IRI. DPP4 inhibitors or vehicle were given p. o. once daily on three consecutive days prior to IRI: linagliptin (1.5 mg.kg(-1).day(-1)), vildagliptin (8mg.kg(-1).day(-1)) and sitagliptin (30 mg.kg(-1).day(-1)). An additional group received sitagliptin until study end (before IRI: 30 mg.kg(-1).day(-1); after IRI: 15mg.kg(-1).day(-1)). KEY RESULTS Plasma-active glucagon-like peptide type 1 (GLP(-1)) increased threefold to fourfold in all DPP4 inhibitor groups 24 h after IRI. Plasma cystatin C, a marker of GFR, peaked 48 h after IRI. Compared with the placebo group, DPP4 inhibition did not reduce increased plasma cystatin C levels. DPP4 inhibitors ameliorated histopathologically assessed tubular damage with varying degrees of drug-specific efficacies. Renal osteopontin expression was uniformly reduced by all DPP4 inhibitors. IRI-related increased renal cytokine expression was not decreased by DPP4 inhibition. Renal DPP4 activity at study end was significantly inhibited in the linagliptin group, but only numerically reduced in the prolonged/dose-adjusted sitagliptin group. Active GLP(-1) plasma levels at study end were increased only in the prolonged/dose-adjusted sitagliptin treatment group. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS In rats with renal IRI, DPP4 inhibition did not alter plasma cystatin C, a marker of glomerular function, but may protect against tubular damage.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{TsuprykovBuseSkobloetal.2017, author = {Tsuprykov, Oleg and Buse, Claudia and Skoblo, Roman and Hocher, Berthold}, title = {Free 25 (OH) vitamin D, but not total 25 (OH) vitamin D, is strongly correlated with gestational age and calcium in normal human pregnancy}, series = {Journal of bone and mineral research}, volume = {32}, booktitle = {Journal of bone and mineral research}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {0884-0431}, pages = {S323 -- S323}, year = {2017}, language = {en} }
