Sprague-Dawley rats, 6 with aminonucleoside nephrosis and 6 controls, were intravenously injected with human liver ferritin isolated from post mortem liver, and their 24-h urine samples were examined for human ferritin by immunoradiometric assay. In rats with aminonucleoside nephrosis, the amount of excreted ferritin in urine was forty times greater than in control rats. Much more monomeric ferritin was excreted than that of polymeric ferritin. We are the first to have utilized human liver ferritin as a tracer to measure a minor amount of ferritin by a commercially available kit. Our present study seems to indicate a critical role for glomerular basement membrane as a size barrier.

GBM prepared by sonication methods and conductive-staining could be observed without metal coating at magnifications as high as 400,000 times. The GBM showed an irregular meshwork structure composed of various strands and pores. The width of the strands ranged from 6 to 15 nm, and the diameter of pores ranged from 6 to 50 nm. The present study confirmed our molecular sieve theory of the basement membrane.

This method was used in electron microscopy of the glomerular basement membranes (GBM). The GBM in patients with nephrotic syndrome was discovered to possess a tunnel structure, designated as "nephrotic tunnel", with lumen large enough to allow free passage of protein molecules. This tunnel seemed to be involved in the etiology of nephrotic syndrome. This new method appears to be applicable to a variety of purposes in biological studies.

The normal human GBM showed a fine meshwork structure consisting of fibrils forming the small pores. The diameter of these pores was slightly smaller than that of human albumin molecules. The GBM in patients with diabetic nephropathy showed irregular thickening. At higher magnification, hitherto unknown cavities and tunnel structures, which were not seen in normal controls, were observed in the thickened GBM. In some portions, these cavities presented a honeycomb-like appearance. The diameters of the cavities and tunnels were far larger than the dimensions of albumin molecules. These enlarged structures are believed to allow serum protein molecules to pass through the GBM from the capillary lumen to the urinary space. These results suggest that the cause of massive proteinuria in diabetic nephropathy is the disruption of the size barrier of the GBM.

In diabetic patients with normoalbuminuria and microalbuminuria, plasma concentrations of vitronectin were significantly higher than those of control subjects. Plasma concentrations of vitronectin in diabetic patients with chronic renal failure were significantly lower than those with normal renal function. There was a significant positive correlation between plasma concentration of vitronectin and blood platelet counts. In the early stage of diabetic nephropathy, vitronectin may be increased caused by synthesis from activated platelets. With progression of diabetic nephropathy, plasma vitronectin may be decreased because of accumulation in sclerotic glomeruli and arteriosclerotic lesions. In conclusion, the plasma concentration of vitronectin appears to be an important marker for the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

en-abstract= kn-abstract=C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the strongest independent predictors of cardiovascular disease. We have previously reported that oxidized LDL (oxLDL) interacts with beta 2-glycoprotein I (beta 2GPI), implicating oxLDL/P2GPI complexes as putative autoantigens in autoimmune-mediated atherosclerotic vascular disease. In this study, we investigated the interaction of CRP with oxLDL/beta 2GPI complexes and its association with atherosclerosis in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). CRP/oxLDL/R2GPI complexes were predominantly found in sera of DM patients with atherosclerosis. In contrast, noncomplexed CRP isoforms were present in sera of patients with acute/chronic inflammation, i.e., various pyrogenic diseases, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and DM. Immunohistochemistry staining colocalized CRP and beta 2GPI together with oxLDL in carotid artery plaques but not in synovial tissue from RA patients, strongly suggesting that complex formation occurs during the development of adierosclerosis. Serum levels of CRP correlated with soluble forms of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and oxLDL/beta 2GPI complexes correlated with total cholesterol and hemoglobin Al c. Thus, the generation of CRP/oxLDL/beta 2GPI complexes seems to be associated with arterial inflammation, hyperglycemia, and hypercholesterolemia. CRP/oxLDL/R2GPI complexes can be distinguished from pyrogenic noncomplexed CRP isoforms and may represent a more specific and predictive marker for atherosclerosis. en-copyright= kn-copyright=

Factors for Dietary Behaviors of Patients with Diabetic Nephropathy en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The aim of this study was to clarify the factors influencing the dietary behavior of patients with diabetic nephropathy. One hundred twenty-two patients with type 2 diabetes were recruited from the outpatients of Okayama University Hospital in Okayama, Japan. We performed a cross-sectional study using a questionnaire including 206 items among 18 categories as follows:background factors, coping behavior (coping scale), degree of uncertainty in illness (uncertainty scale), and dietary behavior. The data were analyzed by correlation analysis, t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. We found that those patients with microalbuminuria alone tended to recognize more mild about their kidney status than those with macroalbuminuria and chronic renal failure. We also found that common factors influencing the dietary behavior of diabetic patients with and without nephropathy are as follows:1. coping with the problem (beta0.342, p0.01);2. anxiety about prognosis (beta0.344, p0.01);3. sex (beta0.234, p0.05);4. uncertainty regarding treatment (beta0.377, p0.01);5. negative coping (beta0.354, p0.01);and 6. employment status (beta0.367, p0.01). Coping and uncertainty in illness had a significant relation to positive support and lack of support. To maintain appropriate dietary behavior in diabetic patients, medical staff need to determine what the social supports are important for the patient, and also to ensure good communication among healthcare personnel as well as positive support for patients and families.

A total of 11,711 Japanese subjects, aged 20-79 years, were recruited in a cross-sectional clinical investigation. From this group, we further investigated the data on 1,576 subjects. eGFR was calculated using serum creatinine (Cr), age and sex. The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was based on the Japanese criteria. In the first analysis, 288 men (7.8%) and 498 women (6.2%) were diagnosed with reduced eGFR (<60ml/min). eGFR was not correlated with anthropometric, body composition parameters in either sex. In the second analysis, in subjects without medications, 132 men (20.8%) and 15 women (1.6%) were diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. eGFR was lower in men with abdominal obesity and in women with hypertension was than in those without. Among Japanese not taking medications, lower eGFR may be a characteristic of men with abdominal obesity and of women with hypertension. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MiyatakeNobuyuki en-aut-sei=Miyatake en-aut-mei=Nobuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=NumataTakeyuki en-aut-sei=Numata en-aut-mei=Takeyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hygiene, Faculty of Medicine, Kagawa University affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Southern Institute of Health, Okayama Health Foundation en-keyword=metabolic syndrome kn-keyword=metabolic syndrome en-keyword=estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) kn-keyword=estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) en-keyword=abdominal circumference kn-keyword=abdominal circumference END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=64 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=339 end-page=343 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2010 dt-pub=201010 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Decreasing Systolic Blood Pressure Is Associated with Improving Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) with Lifestyle Modification in Japanese Healthy Women en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The link between changes in a subject's metabolic syndrome components and her estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was evaluated in healthy Japanese women. We used data for 53 Japanese women (46.0±10.9 years) with a 1-year follow up. eGFR was defined by a new equation developed for Japan. There were no significant relationships between eGFR and clinical parameters at baseline. Subjects were given advice for dietary and lifestyle improvement. At the 1-year follow up, eGFR was significantly increased. In addition, changes in eGFR were weakly correlated with systolic blood pressure(r＝−0.306, p＝0.0260). A decrease in systolic blood pressure may be associated with improving eGFR in Japanese women. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MiyatakeNobuyuki en-aut-sei=Miyatake en-aut-mei=Nobuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=NumataTakeyuki en-aut-sei=Numata en-aut-mei=Takeyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hygiene, Faculty of Medicine, Kagawa University affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Southern Institute of Health, Okayama Health Foundation en-keyword=systolic blood pressure kn-keyword=systolic blood pressure en-keyword=estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) kn-keyword=estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) en-keyword=metabolic syndrome kn-keyword=metabolic syndrome en-keyword=lifestyle modification kn-keyword=lifestyle modification END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=65 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=129 end-page=133 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201104 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Emphysematous Cystitis in a Patient with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=A 62-year-old woman with a history of poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus was admitted to our hospital with a 3-week history of mild fever, vomiting, and anorexia. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed bilateral hydronephrosis and gas accumulation in the urinary bladder wall and left ureter. Laboratory tests showed leukocytosis and elevated C-reactive protein level. Urine culture showed heavy growth of Escherichia coli. The final diagnosis was emphysematous cystitis. The patient was treated with systemic antibiotics and drainage using a urethral catheter. The clinical and radiographic findings resolved rapidly, and she was discharged from the hospital on day 28. Emphysematous cystitis is a relatively rare urinary tract infection associated with gas formation, and has the potential for a serious outcome if untreated. Early detection by imaging studies such as CT is important in providing prompt treatment and favorable clinical outcome. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ToyotaNoriko en-aut-sei=Toyota en-aut-mei=Noriko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OgawaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Ogawa en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=IshiiKeita en-aut-sei=Ishii en-aut-mei=Keita kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=HirataKyoji en-aut-sei=Hirata en-aut-mei=Kyoji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=WadaJun en-aut-sei=Wada en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Chugoku Central Hospital affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Chugoku Central Hospital affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine en-keyword=computed tomography kn-keyword=computed tomography en-keyword=diabetes mellitus kn-keyword=diabetes mellitus en-keyword=emphysematous cystitis kn-keyword=emphysematous cystitis END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=65 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=81 end-page=89 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201104 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=The Macrophage Is a Key Factor in Renal Injuries Caused by Glomerular Hyperfiltration en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Glomerular hyperfiltration is a common pathway leading to glomerulosclerosis in various kinds of kidney diseases. The 5/6 renal ablation is an established experimental animal model for glomerular hyperfiltration. On the other hand, low-grade inflammation is also a common mechanism for the progression of kidney diseases including diabetic nephropathy and atherosclerosis. Here we analyzed the gene expression profile in the remnant kidney tissues of 5/6 nephrectomized mice using a DNA microarray system and compared it with that of sham-operated control mice. The 5/6 nephrectomized mice showed glomerular hypertrophy and an increase in the extracellular matrix in the glomeruli. DNA microarray analysis indicated the up-regulated expression of various kinds of genes related to the inflammatory process in remnant kidneys. We confirmed the up-regulated expression of platelet factor-4, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, 2, and 5 in remnant kidneys by RT-PCR. The current results suggest that the inflammatory process is involved in the progression of glomerulosclerosis and is a common pathway of the pathogenesis of kidney disease. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=SasakiMotofumi en-aut-sei=Sasaki en-aut-mei=Motofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OkadaShinichi en-aut-sei=Okada en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyamotoSatoshi en-aut-sei=Miyamoto en-aut-mei=Satoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=NishishitaShingo en-aut-sei=Nishishita en-aut-mei=Shingo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=Usui KataokaHitomi en-aut-sei=Usui Kataoka en-aut-mei=Hitomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=SatoChikage en-aut-sei=Sato en-aut-mei=Chikage kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=WadaJun en-aut-sei=Wada en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OgawaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Ogawa en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=kidney kn-keyword=kidney en-keyword=inflammation kn-keyword=inflammation en-keyword=chemokine kn-keyword=chemokine END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=65 cd-vols= no-issue=4 article-no= start-page=247 end-page=257 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201108 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Involvement of MAPKs in ICAM-1 Expression in Glomerular Endothelial Cells in Diabetic Nephropathy en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Inflammatory processes are involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. The aim of this study was to clarify the role of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways for induction of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in glomerular endothelial cells under diabetic conditions. We examined the expression of ICAM-1 in the kidneys of experimental diabetic rats. Human glomerular endothelial cells (GE cells) were exposed to normal glucose concentration, high glucose concentration (HG), or high mannitol concentration (HM), and then the expression of the ICAM-1 protein and the phosphorylation of the 3 subfamilies of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) were determined using Western blot analysis. Next, to evaluate the involvement of MAPKs in HG- or HM-induced ICAM-1 expression, we preincubated GE cells with the inhibitors for ERK, p38 or JNK 1h prior to the application of glucose or mannitol. Expression of ICAM-1 was increased in the glomeruli of diabetic rats. Both HG and HM induced ICAM-1 expression and phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 and JNK in GE cells. Expression of ICAM-1 was significantly attenuated by inhibitors of ERK, p38 and JNK. We conclude that activation of ERK1/2, p38 and JNK cascades may be involved in ICAM-1 expression in glomerular endothelial cells under diabetic conditions. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=WatanabeNaomi en-aut-sei=Watanabe en-aut-mei=Naomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataYasushi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Yasushi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=SaraiKei en-aut-sei=Sarai en-aut-mei=Kei kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=OmoriKazuyoshi en-aut-sei=Omori en-aut-mei=Kazuyoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoderaRyo en-aut-sei=Kodera en-aut-mei=Ryo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=SatoChikage en-aut-sei=Sato en-aut-mei=Chikage kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=WadaJun en-aut-sei=Wada en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Diabetic Nephropathy, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=diabetic nephropathy kn-keyword=diabetic nephropathy en-keyword=ICAM-1 kn-keyword=ICAM-1 en-keyword=ERK kn-keyword=ERK en-keyword=p38 MAPK kn-keyword=p38 MAPK en-keyword=JNK kn-keyword=JNK END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=65 cd-vols= no-issue=6 article-no= start-page=363 end-page=367 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201112 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Decreasing Abdominal Circumference Is Associated with Improving Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) with Lifestyle Modification in Japanese Men: A Pilot Study en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The link between changes in a subject's metabolic syndrome components and his estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was evaluated in healthy Japanese men. We used data from 120 Japanese men (45.5±8.4 years) with a 1-year follow up. eGFR was defined by a new equation developed for Japan. There were no significant differences in eGFR between men with and without metabolic syndrome components at baseline. Subjects were given advice for dietary and lifestyle improvement. At the 1-year follow up, almost all metabolic syndrome components were significantly improved. However, eGFR was significantly decreased. The changes in eGFR were weakly correlated with abdominal circumference (r＝−0.232, p＝0.0106). A decrease in abdominal circumference may be associated with improving eGFR in Japanese men. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MiyatakeNobuyuki en-aut-sei=Miyatake en-aut-mei=Nobuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=NumataTakeyuki en-aut-sei=Numata en-aut-mei=Takeyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hygiene, Faculty of Medicine, Kagawa University affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Center for Innovative Medicine, Okayama University Hospital affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Southern Institute of Health, Okayama Health Foundation en-keyword=abdominal circumference kn-keyword=abdominal circumference en-keyword=estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) kn-keyword=estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) en-keyword=metabolic syndrome kn-keyword=metabolic syndrome en-keyword=lifestyle modification kn-keyword=lifestyle modification END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=123 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=197 end-page=206 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=20111201 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=A new paradigm for the treatment of lifestyle-related diseases : Microinflammation as a novel therapeutic target kn-title=生活習慣病治療のパラダイムシフト―慢性炎症を標的とした治療戦略― en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name=四方賢一 kn-aut-sei=四方 kn-aut-mei=賢一 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院 新医療研究開発センター en-keyword=生活習慣病 kn-keyword=生活習慣病 en-keyword=メタボリック症候群 kn-keyword=メタボリック症候群 en-keyword=糖尿病 kn-keyword=糖尿病 en-keyword=炎症 kn-keyword=炎症 en-keyword=心血管疾患 kn-keyword=心血管疾患 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=16 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=739 end-page=748 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2012 dt-pub=201210 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Phenotypic change of macrophages in the progression of diabetic nephropathy; sialoadhesin-positive activated macrophages are increased in diabetic kidney en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Inflammatory process is involved in pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy, although the activation and phenotypic change of macrophages in diabetic kidney has remained unclear. Sialoadhesin is a macrophage adhesion molecule containing 17 extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains, and is an I-type lectin which binds to sialic acid ligands expressed on hematopoietic cells. The aim of this study is to clarify the activation and phenotypic change of macrophages in the progression of diabetic nephropathy. We examined the expression of surface markers for pan-macrophages, resident macrophages, sialoadhesin, major histocompatibility complex class II and alpha-smooth muscle actin in the glomeruli of diabetic rats using immunohistochemistry at 0, 1, 4, 12, and 24 weeks after induction of diabetes by streptozotocin. Expression of type IV collagen and the change of mesangial matrix area were also measured. The mechanism for up-regulated expression of sialoadhesin on macrophages was evaluated in vitro. The number of macrophages was increased in diabetic glomeruli at 1 month after induction of diabetes and the increased number was maintained until 6 months. On the other hand, sialoadhesin-positive macrophages were increased during the late stage of diabetes concomitantly with the increase of alpha-smooth muscle actin-positive mesangial cells, mesangial matrix area and type IV collagen. Gene expression of sialoadhesin was induced by stimulation with interleukin (IL)-1 beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha but not with IL-4, transforming growth factor-beta and high glucose in cultured human macrophages. The present findings suggest that sialoadhesin-positive macrophages may contribute to the progression of diabetic nephropathy. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NagaseRyo en-aut-sei=Nagase en-aut-mei=Ryo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KajitaniNobuo en-aut-sei=Kajitani en-aut-mei=Nobuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OgawaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Ogawa en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoderaRyo en-aut-sei=Kodera en-aut-mei=Ryo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=OkadaShinichi en-aut-sei=Okada en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KidoYuichi en-aut-sei=Kido en-aut-mei=Yuichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=68 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=43 end-page=46 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2014 dt-pub=201402 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Lifestyle Modification Is Associated with Improving Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) and Proteinuria in Japanese with Proteinuria en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The link between lifestyle modification and changes in both proteinuria and estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) was evaluated in Japanese subjects with proteinuria who were not taking medications.

associated with the remission and/or regression of microalbuminuria in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We retrospectively analyzed the data of 130 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with microalbuminuria for 2-6 years (3.39±1.31 years). Remission was defined as improving from microalbuminuria to normoalbuminuria using the albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR), and regression of microalbuminuria was defined as a decrease in ACR of 50% or more from baseline. Progression of microalbuminuria was defined as progressing from microalbuminuria to overt proteinuria during the follow-up period. Among 130 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with microalbuminuria, 57 and 13 patients were defined as having remission and regression, respectively, while 26 patients progressed to overt proteinuria. Sex (female), higher HDL cholesterol and lower HbA1c were determinant factors associated with remission/regression of microalbuminuria by logistic regression analysis. Lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) was also correlated with remission/regression, but not at a significant level. These results suggest that proper control of blood glucose, BP and lipid profiles may be associated with remission and/or regression of type 2 diabetes mellitus with microalbuminuria in clinical practice. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OnoTetsuichiro en-aut-sei=Ono en-aut-mei=Tetsuichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=ObikaMikako en-aut-sei=Obika en-aut-mei=Mikako kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyatakeNobuyuki en-aut-sei=Miyatake en-aut-mei=Nobuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoderaRyo en-aut-sei=Kodera en-aut-mei=Ryo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HirotaDaisyo en-aut-sei=Hirota en-aut-mei=Daisyo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=WadaJun en-aut-sei=Wada en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KataokaHitomi en-aut-sei=Kataoka en-aut-mei=Hitomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OgawaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Ogawa en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Center for Graduate Medical Education, Okayama University affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hygiene, Faculty of Medicine, Kagawa University affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Diabetic Nephropathy, Okayama University affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine and Clinical Science, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=microalbuminuria kn-keyword=microalbuminuria en-keyword=type 2 diabetes mellitus kn-keyword=type 2 diabetes mellitus en-keyword=remission kn-keyword=remission en-keyword=regression kn-keyword=regression END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=128 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=121 end-page=123 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2016 dt-pub=20160801 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Mid-West Japan Clinical Study Consortium kn-title=中央西日本臨床研究コンソーシアム en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name=四方賢一 kn-aut-sei=四方 kn-aut-mei=賢一 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil=岡山大学病院 新医療研究開発センター en-keyword=中央西日本臨床研究コンソーシアム kn-keyword=中央西日本臨床研究コンソーシアム en-keyword=岡山大学病院 kn-keyword=岡山大学病院 en-keyword=ARO kn-keyword=ARO en-keyword=臨床研究 kn-keyword=臨床研究 en-keyword=治験 kn-keyword=治験 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=11 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=97 end-page=104 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2019 dt-pub=20190916 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=The hypoglycemia-prevention effect of sensor-augmented pump therapy with predictive low glucose management in Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a short-term study en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Aims/introduction The predictive low glucose management (PLGM) system was introduced in March 2018 in Japan. Although there are some reports demonstrating the benefit of PLGM in preventing hypoglycemia, no data are currently available in Japanese patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of PLGM with sensor-augmented pump therapy in the prevention of hypoglycemia in Japanese patients. Materials and methods We included 16 patients with T1DM who used the MiniMed?640G system after switching from the MiniMed?620G system. We retrospectively analysed the data of the continuous glucose monitoring system in 1 month after switching to MiniMed?640G. Results The area under the curve (AUC) of hypoglycemia of??180 mg/dL and the duration of hyperglycemia did not change. With the PLGM function, 79.3% of the predicted hypoglycemic events were avoided. Conclusions The hypoglycemia avoidance rate was comparable to those in previous reports. In addition, we demonstrated that PLGM can markedly suppress severe hypoglycemia without deteriorating glycemic control in Japanese T1DM patients. It is necessary to further investigate the effective use of the PLGM feature such as establishing a lower limit and the timing of resumption. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KatayamaAkihiro en-aut-sei=Katayama en-aut-mei=Akihiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToneAtsuhito en-aut-sei=Tone en-aut-mei=Atsuhito kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=WatanabeMayu en-aut-sei=Watanabe en-aut-mei=Mayu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=TeshigawaraSanae en-aut-sei=Teshigawara en-aut-mei=Sanae kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyamotoSatoshi en-aut-sei=Miyamoto en-aut-mei=Satoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=EguchiJun en-aut-sei=Eguchi en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakatsukaAtsuko en-aut-sei=Nakatsuka en-aut-mei=Atsuko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=WadaJun en-aut-sei=Wada en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Diabetes Center, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Diabetes Center, Okayama Saiseikai General Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Primary Care and Medical Education, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Diabetes Center, Okayama Saiseikai General Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= en-keyword=Hypoglycemia kn-keyword=Hypoglycemia en-keyword=Predictive low glucose management (PLGM) kn-keyword=Predictive low glucose management (PLGM) en-keyword=Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) kn-keyword=Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) en-keyword=Sensor-augmented pump therapy (SAP) kn-keyword=Sensor-augmented pump therapy (SAP) END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=11 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=325 end-page=332 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=20200517 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Prevalence of albuminuria and renal dysfunction, and related clinical factors in Japanese patients with diabetes: The Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention prospective study 5 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Aims/Introduction To clarify the prevalence of albuminuria and renal dysfunction, and related factors in Japanese patients with diabetes, we analyzed the baseline data of the Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention prospective study. Materials and Methods We used the data of 355 patients with type 1 diabetes and 5,194 patients with type 2 diabetes to evaluate the prevalence of albuminuria and renal dysfunction, and related factors. A binomial logistic regression analysis was used to investigate independent contributing factors for estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or albuminuria. Results The prevalence of microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria was 15.2% (54/355) and 3.1% (11/355) in type 1 diabetes patients, and 25.0% (1,298/5,194) and 5.1% (265/5,194) in type 2 diabetes patients, respectively. The proportion of renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) was 9.9% (35/355) in type 1 diabetes patients, and 15.3% (797/5,194) in type 2 diabetes patients. The proportion of patients with renal dysfunction with normoalbuminuria was 7.3% (26/355) for type 1 diabetes patients, and 9.0% (467/5,194) for type 2 diabetes patients. The factors related to albuminuria in type 2 diabetes patients were glycated hemoglobin, hypertension, age, duration of diabetes, body mass index and estimated glomerular filtration rate. In contrast, factors to related renal dysfunction were age, duration of diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, body mass index, male sex and albuminuria. Conclusions We showed the recent prevalence of albuminuria and renal dysfunction, and related factors in Japanese type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients using the baseline data of the Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention prospective study. The current results suggest that renal disease in patients with type 2 diabetes is heterogeneous, and different mechanisms might be involved in albuminuria and deterioration of renal function. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoderaRyo en-aut-sei=Kodera en-aut-mei=Ryo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=UtsunomiyaKazunori en-aut-sei=Utsunomiya en-aut-mei=Kazunori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoyaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Koya en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=NishimuraRimei en-aut-sei=Nishimura en-aut-mei=Rimei kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyamotoSatoshi en-aut-sei=Miyamoto en-aut-mei=Satoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TajimaNaoko en-aut-sei=Tajima en-aut-mei=Naoko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=the JDCP study group en-aut-sei=the JDCP study group en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=The Japan Diabetes Society kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=The Japan Diabetes Society kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=The Japan Diabetes Society kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=The Japan Diabetes Society kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=The Japan Diabetes Society kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil= en-keyword=Diabetic nephropathy kn-keyword=Diabetic nephropathy en-keyword=Diabetic kidney disease kn-keyword=Diabetic kidney disease en-keyword=Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention study kn-keyword=Japan Diabetes Complication and its Prevention study END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=12 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=207 end-page=216 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=20200808 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Randomized trial of an intensified, multifactorial intervention in patients with advanced‐stage diabetic kidney disease: Diabetic Nephropathy Remission and Regression Team Trial in Japan (DNETT‐Japan) en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Aims/Introduction We evaluated the efficacy of multifactorial intensive treatment (IT) on renal outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and advanced‐stage diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Materials and Methods The Diabetic Nephropathy Remission and Regression Team Trial in Japan (DNETT‐Japan) is a multicenter, open‐label, randomized controlled trial with a 5‐year follow‐up period. We randomly assigned 164 patients with advanced‐stage diabetic kidney disease (urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio ?300 mg/g creatinine, serum creatinine level 1.2?2.5 mg/dL in men and 1.0?2.5 mg/dL in women) to receive either IT or conventional treatment. The primary composite outcome was end‐stage kidney failure, doubling of serum creatinine or death from any cause, which was assessed in the intention‐to‐treat population. Results The IT tended to reduce the risk of primary end‐points as compared with conventional treatment, but the difference between treatment groups did not reach the statistically significant level (hazard ratio 0.69, 95% confidence interval 0.43?1.11; P = 0.13). Meanwhile, the decrease in serum low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol level and the use of statin were significantly associated with the decrease in primary outcome (hazard ratio 1.14; 95% confidence interval 1.05?1.23, P < 0.001 and hazard ratio 0.53, 95% confidence interval 0.28?0.998, P < 0.05, respectively). The incidence of adverse events was not different between treatment groups. Conclusions The risk of kidney events tended to decrease by IT, although it was not statistically significant. Lipid control using statin was associated with a lower risk of adverse kidney events. Further follow‐up study might show the effect of IT in patients with advanced diabetic kidney disease. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=HanedaMasakazu en-aut-sei=Haneda en-aut-mei=Masakazu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=NinomiyaToshiharu en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Toshiharu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KoyaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Koya en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=SuzukiYoshiki en-aut-sei=Suzuki en-aut-mei=Yoshiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=SuzukiDaisuke en-aut-sei=Suzuki en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=IshidaHitoshi en-aut-sei=Ishida en-aut-mei=Hitoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=AkaiHiroaki en-aut-sei=Akai en-aut-mei=Hiroaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=TominoYasuhiko en-aut-sei=Tomino en-aut-mei=Yasuhiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=UzuTakashi en-aut-sei=Uzu en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=NishimuraMotonobu en-aut-sei=Nishimura en-aut-mei=Motonobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaShiro en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Shiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= en-aut-name=OgawaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Ogawa en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=13 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyamotoSatoshi en-aut-sei=Miyamoto en-aut-mei=Satoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=14 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakinoHirofumi en-aut-sei=Makino en-aut-mei=Hirofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=15 ORCID= en-aut-name=the Diabetic Nephropathy Remission and Regression Team Trial in Japan (DNETT‐Japan) collaborative group en-aut-sei=the Diabetic Nephropathy Remission and Regression Team Trial in Japan (DNETT‐Japan) collaborative group en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=16 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Division of Metabolism and Biosystemic Science, Department of Medicine, Asahikawa Medical University kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Epidemiology and Public Health, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Diabetology & Endocrinology, Kanazawa Medical University kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Health Administration Center, Niigata University kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Suzuki Diabetes Clinic kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Research Center for Health Care, Nagahama City Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Division of Metabolism and Diabetes, Tohoku Medical and Pharmaceutical University kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Division of Nephrology, Department of Internal Medicine, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Nippon Life Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Diabetes and Endocrinology, National Hospital Organization Chiba‐East National Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=12 en-affil=Department of Advanced Genomic and Laboratory Medicine, Graduate School of Medicine, University of the Ryukyus kn-affil= affil-num=13 en-affil=Okayama Diabetes and Neurology Clinic kn-affil= affil-num=14 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=15 en-affil=Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=16 en-affil= kn-affil= en-keyword=Diabetic kidney disease kn-keyword=Diabetic kidney disease en-keyword=Diabetic nephropathy kn-keyword=Diabetic nephropathy en-keyword=Diabetic Nephropathy Remission and Regression Team Trial in Japan kn-keyword=Diabetic Nephropathy Remission and Regression Team Trial in Japan END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=10 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=14928 end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=20200910 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Dysfunction of CD8+PD-1+T cells in type 2 diabetes caused by the impairment of metabolism-immune axis en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The metabolic changes and dysfunction in CD8+T cells may be involved in tumor progression and susceptibility to virus infection in type 2 diabetes (T2D). In C57BL/6JJcl mice fed with high fat-high sucrose chow (HFS), multifunctionality of CD8+splenic and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) was impaired and associated with enhanced tumor growth, which were inhibited by metformin. In CD8+splenic T cells from the HFS mice, glycolysis/basal respiration ratio was significantly reduced and reversed by metformin. In the patients with T2D (DM), multifunctionality of circulating CD8+PD-1+T cells stimulated with PMA/ionomycin as well as with HLA-A*24:02 CMV peptide was dampened, while metformin recovered multifunctionality. Both glycolysis and basal respiration were reduced in DM, and glycolysis was increased by metformin. The disturbance of the link between metabolism and immune function in CD8+PD-1+T cells in T2D was proved by recovery of antigen-specific and non-specific cytokine production via metformin-mediated increase in glycolytic activity. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NojimaIchiro en-aut-sei=Nojima en-aut-mei=Ichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=EikawaShingo en-aut-sei=Eikawa en-aut-mei=Shingo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TomonobuNahoko en-aut-sei=Tomonobu en-aut-mei=Nahoko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=HadaYoshiko en-aut-sei=Hada en-aut-mei=Yoshiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KajitaniNobuo en-aut-sei=Kajitani en-aut-mei=Nobuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TeshigawaraSanae en-aut-sei=Teshigawara en-aut-mei=Sanae kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyamotoSatoshi en-aut-sei=Miyamoto en-aut-mei=Satoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToneAtsuhito en-aut-sei=Tone en-aut-mei=Atsuhito kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=UchidaHaruhito A. en-aut-sei=Uchida en-aut-mei=Haruhito A. kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakatsukaAtsuko en-aut-sei=Nakatsuka en-aut-mei=Atsuko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=EguchiJun en-aut-sei=Eguchi en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShikataKenichi en-aut-sei=Shikata en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= en-aut-name=UdonoHeiichiro en-aut-sei=Udono en-aut-mei=Heiichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=13 ORCID= en-aut-name=WadaJun en-aut-sei=Wada en-aut-mei=Jun kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=14 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Hematology/Oncology, Hess Cancer Institute, Icahn School of Medicine At Mount Sinai kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Cell Biology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Internal Medicine, Diabetes Center, Okayama City Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Diabetes Center, Okayama S kn-affil=italama Univ, Dept Med & Clin Sci, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=7 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Diabetes Center, Okayama Saiseikai General Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Chronic Kidney Disease and Cardiovascular Disease, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=12 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=13 en-affil=Department of Immunology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=14 en-affil=Department of Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology and Metabolism, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=Cytokines kn-keyword=Cytokines en-keyword=Diabetes kn-keyword=Diabetes en-keyword=Endocrine system and metabolic diseases kn-keyword=Endocrine system and metabolic diseases en-keyword=Immunology kn-keyword=Immunology en-keyword=Tumour immunology kn-keyword=Tumour immunology END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=8 cd-vols= no-issue= article-no= start-page=668059 end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2021 dt-pub=20210524 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Novel Urinary Glycan Biomarkers Predict Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Multicenter Prospective Study With 5-Year Follow Up (U-CARE Study 2) en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Background: Although various biomarkers predict cardiovascular event (CVE) in patients with diabetes, the relationship of urinary glycan profile with CVE in patients with diabetes remains unclear. Methods: Among 680 patients with type 2 diabetes, we examined the baseline urinary glycan signals binding to 45 lectins with different specificities. Primary outcome was defined as CVE including cardiovascular disease, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease. Results: During approximately a 5-year follow-up period, 62 patients reached the endpoint. Cox proportional hazards analysis revealed that urinary glycan signals binding to two lectins were significantly associated with the outcome after adjustment for known indicators of CVE and for false discovery rate, as well as increased model fitness. Hazard ratios for these lectins (+1 SD for the glycan index) were UDA (recognizing glycan: mixture of Man5 to Man9): 1.78 (95% CI: 1.24-2.55, P = 0.002) and Calsepa [High-Man (Man2-6)]: 1.56 (1.19-2.04, P = 0.001). Common glycan binding to these lectins was high-mannose type of N-glycans. Moreover, adding glycan index for UDA to a model including known confounders improved the outcome prediction [Difference of Harrel's C-index: 0.028 (95% CI: 0.001-0.055, P = 0.044), net reclassification improvement at 5-year risk increased by 0.368 (0.045-0.692, P = 0.026), and the Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion decreased from 725.7 to 716.5, and 761.8 to 757.2, respectively]. Conclusion: The urinary excretion of high-mannose glycan may be a valuable biomarker for improving prediction of CVE in patients with type 2 diabetes, and provides the rationale to explore the mechanism underlying abnormal N-glycosylation occurring in patients with diabetes at higher risk of CVE. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MiseKoki en-aut-sei=Mise en-aut-mei=Koki kn-aut-name=

Postprandial Triglyceride Variability with Renal Dysfunction and Microalbuminuria in Patients with Type 2 Diabetic Mellitus: A Retrospective and Observational Study en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Objective. We examined whether or not day-to-day variations in lipid profiles, especially triglyceride (TG) variability, were associated with the exacerbation of diabetic kidney disease. Methods. We conducted a retrospective and observational study. First, 527 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) who had had their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) checked every 6 months since 2012 for over 5 years were registered. Variability in postprandial TG was determined using the standard deviation (SD), SD adjusted (Adj-SD) for the number of measurements, and maximum minus minimum difference (MMD) during the first three years of follow-up. The endpoint was a & GE;40% decline from baseline in the eGFR, initiation of dialysis or death. Next, 181 patients who had no micro- or macroalbuminuria in February 2013 were selected from among the 527 patients for an analysis. The endpoint was the incidence of microalbuminuria, initiation of dialysis, or death. Results. Among the 527 participants, 110 reached a & GE;40% decline from baseline in the eGFR or death. The renal survival was lower in the higher-SD, higher-Adj-SD, and higher-MMD groups than in the lower-SD, lower-Adj-SD, and lower-MMD groups, respectively (log-rank test p=0.0073, 0.0059, and 0.0195, respectively). A lower SD, lower Adj-SD, and lower MMD were significantly associated with the renal survival in the adjusted model (hazard ratio, 1.62, 1.66, 1.59; 95% confidence intervals, 1.05-2.53, 1.08-2.58, 1.04-2.47, respectively). Next, among 181 participants, 108 developed microalbuminuria or death. The nonincidence of microalbuminuria was lower in the higher-SD, higher-Adj-SD, and higher-MMD groups than in the lower-SD, lower-Adj-SD, and lower-MMD groups, respectively (log-rank test p=0.0241, 0.0352, and 0.0474, respectively). Conclusions. Postprandial TG variability is a novel risk factor for eGFR decline and the incidence of microalbuminuria in patients with type 2 DM. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=Matsuoka-UchiyamaNatsumi
