    Abstract Accurate assessment of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial for researching kidney disease in rats. Although validation of methods that assess GFR is crucial, large-scale comparisons between different methods are lacking. Both transcutaneous GFR (tGFR) and a newly developed estimated GFR (eGFR) equation by our group provide a low-invasive approach enabling repeated measurements. The tGFR is a single bolus method using FITC-labeled sinistrin to measure GFR based on half-life of the transcutaneous signal, whilst the eGFR is based on urinary sinistrin clearance. Here, we retrospectively compared tGFR, using both 1- and 3- compartment models (tGFR_1c and tGFR_3c, respectively) to the eGFR in a historic cohort of 43 healthy male rats and 84 male rats with various models of chronic kidney disease. The eGFR was on average considerably lower than tGFR-1c and tGFR-3c (mean differences 855 and 216 μL/min, respectively) and only 20 and 47% of measurements were within 30% of each other, respectively. The relative difference between eGFR and tGFR was highest in rats with the lowest GFR. Possible explanations for the divergence are problems inherent to tGFR, such as technical issues with signal measurement, description of the signal kinetics, and translation of half-life to tGFR, which depends on distribution volume. The unknown impact of isoflurane anesthesia used in determining mGFR remains a limiting factor. Thus, our study shows that there is a severe disagreement between GFR measured by tGFR and eGFR, stressing the need for more rigorous validation of the tGFR and possible adjustments to the underlying technique.

    Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease. Obese ZSF1 rats, a model of HFpEF, exhibit multiple such comorbidities that can disturb cardiac function. Little attention has been paid to how these comorbidities affect renal disease in ZSF1 rats. HFpEF is found predominantly in women in whom obesity and hypertension are particularly prevalent. Therefore, we characterized the renal phenotype in female and male lean and obese ZSF1 rats and investigated additional effects of worsened hypertension on disease severity. Systolic blood pressure and renal function were assessed biweekly from 12 to 26 wk. From 19 wk, rats were implanted with either a deoxycorticosterone acetate pellet and fed a high-salt diet (DS) or a placebo pellet and fed a normal-salt diet. At 26 wk of age, terminal glomerular filtration rate was assessed via inulin clearance under isoflurane. Renal sections were processed for histological analysis. Lean and obese ZSF1 rats, both female and male, were mildly hypertensive (systolic blood pressure: 140-150 mmHg). All obese ZSF1 rats showed HFpEF. In female normoglycemic ZSF1 rats, obesity associated with mild proteinuria, decreased glomerular filtration rate, and glomerular hypertrophy. DS-worsened hypertension enhanced proteinuria and triggered glomerulosclerosis. Male obese ZSF1 rats were hyperglycemic and showed proteinuria, glomerular hypertrophy and sclerosis, and tubulointerstitial damage. DS-worsened hypertension aggravated this phenotype in male ZSF1 rats. In conclusion, female obese ZSF1 rats develop mild renal dysfunction and DS-worsened hypertension compromises renal function and structure in normoglycemic female obese ZSF1 rats as in hyperglycemic male obese ZSF1 rats.

    Abstract Albumin is the most abundant protein in blood plasma and acts as a carrier for many circulating molecules. Hypoalbuminaemia, mostly caused by either renal or liver disease or malnutrition, can perturb vascular homeostasis and is involved in the development of multiple diseases. Here we review four functions of albumin and the consequences of hypoalbuminaemia on vascular homeostasis. (i) Albumin is the main determinant of plasma colloid osmotic pressure. Hypoalbuminaemia was therefore thought to be the main mechanism for oedema in nephrotic syndrome (NS), however, experimental studies showed that intrarenal mechanisms rather than hypoalbuminaemia determine formation and, in particular, maintenance of oedema. (ii) Albumin functions as an interface between lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and circulating factors (lipoproteins and erythrocytes) and the endothelium. Consequently, hypoalbuminaemia results in higher LPC levels in lipoproteins and erythrocyte membrane, thereby increasing atherosclerotic properties of low-density lipoprotein and blood viscosity, respectively. Furthermore, albumin dose-dependently restores LPC-induced inhibition of vasodilation. (iii) Hypoalbuminaemia impacts on vascular nitric oxide (NO) signalling by directly increasing NO production in endothelial cells, leading to reduced NO sensitivity of vascular smooth muscle cells. (iv) Lastly, albumin binds free fatty acids (FFAs). FFAs can induce vascular smooth muscle cell apoptosis, uncouple endothelial NO synthase and decrease endothelium-dependent vasodilation. Unbound FFAs can increase the formation of reactive oxygen species by mitochondrial uncoupling in multiple cell types and induce hypertriglyceridemia in NS. In conclusion, albumin acts as an interface in the circulation and hypoalbuminaemia impairs multiple aspects of vascular function that may underlie the association of hypoalbuminaemia with adverse outcomes. However, hypoalbuminaemia is not a key to oedema in NS. These insights have therapeutic implications.
