Abstract
The correction of anemia with human recombinant erythropoietin (rHuEPO) in end stage renal disease is associated with hypertension in about one third of hemodialysis patients. The pathogenesis of the rHuEPO-induced hypertension is still uncertain, though evidence of the involvement of endothelial cells has emerged. The aim of this study was to determine plasma endothelin-1 during hemodialysis and to compare the endothelin-1 levels in hemodialysis patients with and without rHuEPO substitution. Nineteen stable patients (13 male and 6 female, mean age 62 ± 11 years) with end stage renal disease were studied. Cuprophan dialysers (GFS 12®, Gambro, Lund, Sweden) were used for hemodialysis in all cases. rHuEPO (40U/kg s.c.) was administered to 10 patients. Blood pressure (BP; RR mmHg) and blood volume changes (ΔBV; hemoglobinometry %) were serially measured. Samples were taken before and every hour during hemodialysis. Plasma endothelin-1 was measured by ELISA (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, USA) and corrected for hemoconcentration. Endothelin-1 concentration was elevated before commencement of hemodialysis (1.16 ± 0.36 pg/ml) when compared to healthy controls (ref. 0.3 - 0.9) and increased to 1.47 ± 0.51 pg/ml by the end of the session (p<0.05). In patients under rHuEPO-substitution plasma endothelin-1 was higher when compared to patients without substitution before (1.25 ± 0.3 vs. 1.05 ± 0.3 pg/ml) and at the end of HD (1.62 ± 0.5 vs. 1.28 ± 0.3 pg/ml, p<0.05). There was no difference in BP and ΔBV between the two groups during treatment. Plasma endothelin-1 was higher in hemodialysis patients and there was a continuous rise in plasma endothelin-1 during a session. Comparison of two groups of hemodialysis patients with and without s.c. rHuEPO-replacement treatment revealed a significantly higher plasma endothelin-1 concentration in patients with s.c. rHuEPO treatment. However, the elevated endothelin-1 levels were not accompanied by arterial hypertension.

Abstract
In patients on chronic hemodialysis the prevalence of atherosclerosis is increased and is by far the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Endothelin-1, an endothelium-derived peptide with vasoconstrictive and mitogenic effects on vascular smooth muscles, is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the time course of plasma endothelin-1 levels during a hemodialysis session and to explore the influence of preexisting type 2 diabetes mellitus. Forty-five clinically stable hemodialysis patients (21 females, 24 males; mean age 62 +/- 12 years) were evaluated. Patients with type 2 diabetes (n= 11) were compared with the group of patients without diabetes (n=34). Relative blood volume (BV) changes (hemoglobinometry) and blood pressure (BP) was measured. Samples were taken before, every hour during, and after hemodialysis. Plasma endothelin-1 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) and results were corrected according to hemoconcentration. Hemodialysis with an ultrafiltration of 2215 +/- 952 mL was performed. Total BV at the end of hemodialysis was 89.3% +/- 8.3% of the pretreatment volume. Plasma endothelin-1 was enhanced in hemodialysis patients compared to normal subjects and increased from 1.28 +/- 0.47 before to 1.44 +/- 0.54 pg/mL (ref. 0.3-0.9) at the end of hemodialysis (p<0.05). The BV change (r=0.41) and the BP (mean BP: r=0.34) correlated with plasma endothelin-1 at the end of hemodialysis (p<0.05). The levels of endothelin-1 were significantly higher in the group of dialysis patients with type 2 diabetes compared to nondiabetics in all measurements (p<0.05). These findings suggest a potential role of endothelin-1 in the pathogenesis of vascular dysfunction in diabetes mellitus. The dialysis procedure per se, through vasoconstriction due to BV decrease, local endothelial injury (a.v. fistula), or bioincompatibility reactions (foreign surface contact) may additionally alter endothelial cell functions.

Is there a role for endothelin-1 in the hemodynamic changes during hemodialysis? Clin Exp Nephrol 2008; 12:370-375. [PMID: 18568290 DOI: 10.1007/s10157-008-0065-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2007] [Accepted: 05/07/2008] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The etiology of hemodialysis (HD)-induced hypotension and hypertension remains speculative. There is mounting evidence that endothelin-1 (ET-1) may play a vital role in these hemodynamic changes. We examined the possible role of intradialytic changes of ET-1 in the pathogenesis of hypotension and rebound hypertension during HD. METHODS The present study included 45 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on regular HD. They were divided according to their hemodynamic status during HD into three groups (group I had stable intradialytic hemodynamics, group II had dialysis-induced hypotension, and group III had rebound hypertension during HD). In addition, 15 healthy volunteers were included as a control group. Pulse and blood pressure were monitored before, during (every half hour), and after HD session. ET-1 level was measured at the beginning, middle, and end of HD. ET-1 was measured in the control group for comparison. RESULTS Pre-dialysis levels of ET-1 were significantly higher in dialysis patients compared to the controls (P < 0.001); however, they were comparable in the three HD groups. The post-dialysis ET-1 level was not changed significantly in group I compared with predialysis values (14.49 +/- 2.04 vs. 14.33 +/- 2.23 pg/ml; P = NS), while the ET-1 concentration decreased significantly in group II and increased in group III in comparison to predialysis values (8.56 +/- 1.44 vs. 11.75 +/- 2.51; 16.39 +/- 3.12 vs. 11.93 +/- 2.11 pg/ml, respectively; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Altered ET-1 levels may be involved in the pathogenesis of rebound hypertension and hypotension during HD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Etiology of dialysis induced hypotension and hypertension remains speculative. There is mounting evidence that nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin (ET-1) may play a vital role in these hemodynamic changes. We examined the intradialytic dynamic changes in NO and ET-1 levels and their role in the pathogenesis of hypotension and rebound hypertension during hemodialysis (HD). METHODS The serum nitrate + nitrite (NT), fractional exhaled NO concentration (FENO), L-arginine (L-Arg), NGNG-dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) and endothelin (ET-1) profiles were studied in 27 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on HD and 6 matched controls. The ESRD patients were grouped according to their hemodynamic profile; Group I patients had stable BP throughout HD, Group II had dialysis-induced hypotension, and Group III had intradialytic rebound hypertension. RESULTS Pre-dialysis FENO was significantly lower in the dialysis patients compared to controls (19.3 +/- 6.3 vs. 28.6 +/- 3.4 ppb, P < 0.002). Between the experimental groups, pre-dialysis FENO was significantly higher in Group II (24.1 +/- 6.7 ppb) compared to Group I (17.8 +/- 5.6 ppb) and Group III (16.1 +/- 4.2 ppb; P < 0.05). Post-dialysis, FENO increased significantly from the pre-dialysis values (19.3 +/- 6.3 vs. 22.6 +/- 7.9 ppb; P=0.001). Pre-dialysis NT (34.4 +/- 28.2 micromol/L/L) level was not significantly different from that of controls (30.2 +/- 12.3 micromol/L/L). Serum NT decreased from 34.4 +/- 28.2 micromol/L/L at initiation of dialysis to 10.0 +/- 7.4 micormol/L/L at end of dialysis (P < 0.001). NT concentration was comparable in all the three groups at all time points. Pre-dialysis L-Arg (105.3 +/- 25.2 vs. 93.7 +/- 6.0 micromol/L/L; P < 0.05) and ADMA levels were significantly higher in ESRD patients (4.0 +/- 1.8 vs. 0.9 +/- 0.2 micromol/L/L; P < 0.001) compared to controls. Dialysis resulted in significant reduction in L-Arg (105.3 +/- 25.2 vs. 86.8 +/- 19.8 micromol/L/L; P < 0.005) and ADMA (4.0 +/- 1.8 vs. 1.6 +/- 0.7 micromol/L/L; P < 0.001) concentrations. Pre-dialysis ET-1 levels were significantly higher in ESRD patients compared to the controls (8.0 +/- 1.9 vs. 12.7 +/- 4.1 pg/mL; P < 0.002), but were comparable in the three study groups. Post-dialysis ET-1 levels did not change significantly in Group I compared to pre-dialysis values (14.3 +/- 4.3 vs.15.0 +/- 2.4 pg/mL, P=NS). However, while the ET-1 concentration decreased significantly in Group II (12.0 +/- 4.0 vs. 8.7 +/- 1.8 pg/mL, P < 0.05), it increased in Group III from pre-dialysis levels (12.8 +/- 3.8 vs. 16.7 +/- 4.5 pg/mL, P=0.06). CONCLUSION Pre-dialysis FENO is elevated in patients with dialysis-induced hypotension and may be a more reliable than NT as a marker for endogenous NO activity in dialysis patients. Altered NO/ET-1 balance may be involved in the pathogenesis of rebound hypertension and hypotension during dialysis.

Abstract
Vasoactive autocoids with directly opposing actions on the renal vasculature, glomerular function, and in salt and water homeostasis have been demonstrated in the kidney. In the renal cortex, endothelin (ET)-1 and angiotensin-II cause vasoconstriction, decreasing renal blood flow, and glomerular filtration rate, whereas bradykinin and atrial natriuretic peptide cause vasodilation and increase glomerular capillary permeability. ET-1 causes vasoconstriction of the afferent and efferent arteries and outer medullary descending vasa recta, thereby decreasing vasa recta and papillary blood flow, while bradykinin has the opposite effect. ET-1 stimulates cell proliferation, increasing the expression of several genes, including collagenase, prostaglandin endoperoxidase synthase, and platelet-derived growth factor. ET-1 promotes natriuresis via the ET-B receptor, causing down-regulation of the epithelial Na(+) channel in the renal tubule. Thus, ETs affect three major aspects of renal physiology: vascular and mesangial tone, Na(+) and water excretion, and cell proliferation and matrix formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main causes of death in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) are cardiovascular complications. The aim of the present study was to compare endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (EDV) in patients with chronic renal failure with a control population controlling for hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hypercholesterolaemia. METHODS Fifty-six patients with moderate CRF (mean creatinine clearance 29.4 ml/min/1.73 m(2)) underwent evaluation of EDV and endothelium-independent vasodilatation (EIDV) by means of forearm blood flow (FBF) measurements with venous occlusion plethysmography during local intra-arterial infusions of methacholine (Mch, 2 and 4 microg/min evaluating EDV) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 5 and 10 microg/min evaluating EIDV). Fifty-six control subjects without renal impairment underwent the same investigation. RESULTS Infusion of Mch increased FBF significantly less in patients with renal failure than in controls (198 vs 374%, P<0.001), whereas no significant difference was seen regarding the vasodilatation induced by SNP (278 vs 269%). The differences in EDV between the groups were still significant after controlling for hypertension, blood glucose, and serum cholesterol in multiple regression analysis (P<0.001). EDV was related to serum creatinine (r=-0.37, P<0.01), creatinine clearance (r=0.45, P<0.005) and to serum triglyceride levels (r=-0.29, P<0.005) in the CRF group. CONCLUSIONS Patients with moderate CRF have an impaired EDV even after correction for traditional cardiovascular risk factors and this impairment is related to the degree of renal failure.

Abstract
The possible diagnostic or prognostic significance of changes in circulating level of endothelins in a variety of pathological conditions is currently of interest. Unfortunately, no consensus regarding optimization of sensitivity and extraction procedures for the reliable radioimmunoassay of endothelin-1 (ET-1), big endothelin-1 (BigET-1), and endothelin-3 (ET-3) currently exists. The object of the present study was to evaluate aspects of currently used extraction and assay procedures that limit accurate determination of ET in human plasma and define criteria to reduce variability. Critical parameters include the selectivity of commercial antibodies and the ability to remove interfering material after Sep-Pak absorption by selective washing with 24% ethanol in 4% acetic acid or methylene chloride in 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. Assay sensitivity and specificity in the physiological range is improved by optimizing total binding parameters for the antibodies to give approximately 15-20% binding of radiolabeled peptide. With these modifications normal plasma values for ET-1, BigET-1, and ET-3 averaged 1.7 +/- 0.06, 2.5 +/- 0.3, and 5.8 +/- 0.2 pg/ml, respectively. These data suggest that such modifications may help to resolve many of the earlier difficulties concerning the role of ET under normal and pathological conditions.

Abstract
Increased plasma concentrations of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and big endothelin-1 (big ET-1) have been reported in patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRD). In the present study, which included hemodialysis (HD) patients with (n = 21) and without (n = 32) ischemic heart disease, the putative association between plasma levels of ET-1 and big ET-1 and ischemic heart disease and the influence of the dialysis procedure on ET concentrations was investigated. This study also examined in an additional five HD patients without cardiac disease whether intravenously infused ET-1 and big ET-1 (0.2, 1, and 4 pmol/kg per min, each dose for 20 min) preserve their vasoactive potency and whether exogenous big ET-1, which in healthy humans is converted in the kidney, is still converted to ET-1 in ESRD. HD patients with ischemic heart disease demonstrated higher plasma levels of ET-1 and big ET-1 than HD patients without this disorder, and HD reduced plasma ET-1 and big ET-1 concentrations. In HD patients, the big ET-1 infusion, resulting in a 1.5-fold increase in plasma ET-1, caused a more marked and prolonged rise in mean arterial BP than ET-1 (20% versus 13%, P = 0.0001) and a slightly smaller but more prolonged decrease in estimated splanchnic blood flow than ET-1 (37% versus 44%, P = 0.02). Furthermore, big ET-1 lowered heart rate by 9% (P = 0.01) but ET-1 did not. Plasma half-lives of ET-1 and big ET-1 were longer in HD patients than in healthy humans. Thus, ET-1 and big ET-1 preserve their vasoactive potency, and circulating big ET-1 is still converted to active ET-1 in ESRD. Consequently, the increased plasma levels of ET-1 and big ET-1 noted in HD patients, especially in patients with ischemic heart disease, might play a role in the development of uremic cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
Forty-three patients with systemic scleroderma (SSc), 10 with non-SSc (6 cases of systemic lupus erythematosus and 4 cases of dermatomyositis), 14 cases of mild- or non-sclerotic type of scleroderma with capillaroscopic abnormalities of nailfolds (SSD; scleroderma spectrum disorders) and 10 healthy volunteers (HC) were subjected to examination of plasma levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1). The sex ratios (male/female) in the patients with SSc, non-SSc and HC were 7:36, 4:6 and 0:10, and the ranges of their ages were 22-74, 19-78 and 33-62 years old, respectively. The plasma levels of ET-1 in SSD, SSc (Barnett I;15), SSc (Barnett II;16), SSc (Barnett III;12 cases), non-SSc and HC were 1.67 +/- 0.37 2.04 +/- 0.58 2.04 +/- 0.68 1.85 +/- 041 191 +/- 0.7 and 1.31 +/- 0.34 pg/ml, respectively, confirming previous results from other laboratories. The plasma levels of ET-1 statistically differ between each collagen disease (SSD, SSc and non-SSc) and HC using Student's t-test (P < 0.05). Although a statistically significant difference was obtained in the plasma levels of ET-1 between the SSc group (6 cases) and HC (6 cases) measured at 06:00, 12:00, 18:00 and 24:00 h, there was no significant circadian variation of plasma levels of ET-1 at these times in both the SSc group and HC. The present study revealed that (1) the ET-1 level in HC showed no circadian fluctuation, and remained at a low level (0.8-1.6 pg/ml). (2) When compared to HC, ET-1 in blood plasma of patients with SSc was elevated (0.3-3 pg/ml) throughout the day and night (P < 0.05). (3) ET-1 tended to increase more at midnight (24:00 h) in the SSc group without PSL treatment, though no statistical significance was obtained. (4) TAT showed a significant increase at noon (12:00 h) suggesting coagulation activity in patients with SSc, but PlC did not show a significant increase compared to HC. In conclusion, the observed increase of vasoconstrictive ET-1 in the patients with SSc throughout the day and night may make maintenance of peripheral blood flow more difficult, may have some biological origin and should be further investigated.

Abstract
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a 21-amino acid peptide that potently modulates renal function. ET-1 is produced by, and binds to, most renal cell types. ET-1 exerts a wide range of biologic effects in the kidney, including constriction of most renal vessels, mesangial cell contraction, inhibition of sodium and water reabsorption by the nephron, enhancement of glomerular cell proliferation, and stimulation of extracellular matrix accumulation. ET-1 functions primarily as an autocrine or paracrine factor; its renal effects must be viewed in the context of its local production and actions. This is particularly important when comparing ET-1 biology in the nephron, where it promotes relative hypotension through increased salt and water excretion, with ET-1 effects in the vasculature, where it promotes relative hypertension through vasoconstriction. Numerous studies indicate that ET-1 is involved in the pathogenesis of a broad spectrum of renal diseases. These include those characterized by excessive renal vascular resistance, such as ischemic renal failure, cyclosporine (CyA) nephrotoxicity, radiocontrast nephropathy, endotoxemia, rhabdomyolysis, acute liver rejection, and others. ET-1 appears to play a role in cell proliferation in the setting of inflammatory glomerulonephritides. The peptide also may mediate, at least in part, excessive extracellular matrix accumulation and fibrosis occurring in chronic renal failure, diabetes mellitus, and other disorders. Deranged ET-1 production in the nephron may cause inappropriate sodium and water retention, thereby contributing to the development and/or maintenance of hypertension. Finally, impaired renal clearance of ET-1 may cause hypertension in patients with end-stage renal disease. Many ET-1 antagonists have been developed; however, their clinical usefulness has not yet been determined. Despite this, these agents hold great promise for the treatment of renal diseases; it is hoped that the next decade will witness their introduction into clinical practice.
