Background
The aim of this study is to examine the clinical advantages of SGLT2 inhibitor predominantly focusing on the amelioration of tubulo-interstitial nephropathy (TIN) through the prospective clinical study.
Methods
Patients with diabetic kidney disease were enrolled, and the patients were received 50 mg of Iplagliflozin. Their blood and urine were sampled at 0 M as baseline, 1 M and 12 M for measurement of parameters including urine Liver Fatty Acid Binding Protein (L-FABP), urine N-acetyl β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), urine monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), urine type IV collagen (T4C), 8-hydroxy-2'- deoxyguanosine (8OHdG) in addition to the regular biochemical parameters.
Results
All enrolled patients (n=25, 57.6 of mean age) showed no significant change in their blood pressure and body mass index during the observation period. Their eGFR was not changed either (57.7±21.3 at 0 M, 56.5±21.9 at 1 M, 58.0±24.4 mL/min at 12 M). Urine albumin-to-Cr ratio (ACR) was significantly reduced at 1 M and maintained until 12 M (median: 298.3 at 0 M, 136.0 at 1 M, 141.5 mg/gCr at 12 M). The reduction of ACR was even significant in xx patients who showed GFR<60 mL/min (median: 298.3 at 0 M vs 111.7 mg/gCr at 1 M, p=0.002). We also examined the correlation between baseline ACR and other parameters by single regression analysis, indicating that TIN-related parameters showed weak correlation (LFABP: R2=0.242, p=0.032, MCP-1: R2=0.252, p=0.029) but T4C and eGFR did not. When the patients were divided into two groups based on the ACR reduction responding to SGLT2 inhibitor by the median value of percent-reduction rate of ACR at 1 M, parameters related to TIN showed significant difference among the two groups (LFABP median: 6.58 vs 3.07 µg/gCr, NAG index median: 9.63 vs 7.19 U/gCr, MCP-1 median: 2.42 vs 1.77 pg/gCr) whereas T4C and eGFR were not different.
Conclusion
SGLT2 inhibitor significantly reduced the albuminuria even in patients with advanced renal damage. In these subjects, the reduction of ACR might be highly involved in the severity and restoring of TIN than glomerular damages.
