【 摘 要 】

BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), partly due to endothelial dysfunction and chronic inflammation. Vitamin D treatment in end stage renal disease is suggested to modulate the immune system and lead to improved outcomes. We and others have demonstrated that treatment with vitamin D or activated vitamin D analogues protects the endothelial function in less severe renal disease as well. Since the endothelial protection might be mediated by vitamin D effects on inflammation, we assessed levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and micro RNAs (miRs) in patients with moderate CKD, treated with an active vitamin D analogue (paricalcitol).MethodsThirty-six patients with moderate CKD were randomized to 12 weeks treatment with placebo, 1 μg, or 2 μg paricalcitol daily. Cytokines were measured by Milliplex 26-plex. Total RNA was isolated from plasma and miRs were determined by quantitative reverse transcription PCR analysis.ResultsSelected pro-inflammatory cytokines decreased significantly following treatment, while no change was observed in the placebo group. The micro RNAs; miR 432-5p, miR 495-3p, and miR 576-5p were significantly downregulated in the active treated groups, compared to the placebo group.ConclusionParicalcitol treatment for 12 weeks in patients with moderate CKD reduces cytokines and micro RNAs involved in atherosclerosis and inflammation. The potentially protective role of vitamin D receptor activation in the inflammatory processes regarding the long-term outcomes in CKD patients warrants further studies.Trial registrationSOLID study; NCT01204528, April 27, 2010.
