| Abstract | Objective: This study aims to evaluate the markers of tubular phosphate handling in adults with sickle cell anemia (SCA) and the influence of hydroxyurea (HU), the degree of anemia and Hb F concentration on these markers. Methods: Eighty-eight steady state SCA patients in outpatient follow-up in Fortaleza, Ceara, Brazil and 31 healthy individuals were included in this study. Vitamin D (25OHD) was measured by enzyme-bound fluorescence assay, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) by electrochemiluminescence, and serum and urinary phosphate and creatinine by colorimetric methods. Details of Hb F and HU use were obtained from clinical records. Tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) and maximum tubular reabsorption of phosphate (MTRP) were calculated. SCA patients were stratified according to the use of HU, degree of anemia and percentage of Hb F. The significance level was set for p-values <0.05. Results: Compared to controls the 25OHD level (25 ± 11 vs. 30 ± 9 pg/mL) was lower in SCA, while serum phosphate and MTRP were higher (3.86 ± 0.94 vs. 3.46 ± 0.72 and 3.6 ± 1.21 vs. 3.21 ± 0.53, respectively). There was no significant difference in iPTH, TRP and phosphaturia. Serum phosphate showed correlation with TRP (r = 0.32; p-value = 0.008) and MTRP (r = 0.9; p-value <0.001) in SCA. Patients taking HU, especially those with Hb F >10 % presented reduced serum phosphate levels, and TRP and MTRP rates. Those with mild anemia presented reduced serum phosphate levels and MTRP rates. Conclusion: Serum phosphate levels and renal phosphate reabsorption rate were increased in SCA. HU use, high Hb F concentration and total Hb were associated with better control of tubular phosphate handling markers. |
