摘要
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide health burden with increases risk of end-stage renal function if left untreated. CKD induced in the context of metabolic syndrome (MS) increases risks of hypertension, hyperglycemia, excess body fat and dyslipidemia. To test if combining a high-fat diet (HFD) regimen onto the hypertensive/ diabetic phenotype would mimic features of MS induced-CKD in mice, hyperglycemia was induced in genetically hypertensive mice (Lin), followed by HFD regimen. For that, 8-week-old male were subjected to streptozotocin (STZ) intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections (50 mg/kg, 5 days consecutive). LinSTZ were fed a 60% kCal HFD for 8 weeks. Lin mice treated with STZ developed polydipsia, became hypertensive and hyperglycemic. HFD induced weight gain, protected against glomerular hypertrophy, scarring, and albuminuria at endpoint compared to regular diet fed LinSTZ. On the other hand, HFD induced steatosis, liver fibrosis, inflammation, and increase in AST/ALT ratio, characteristics of non-alcoholic liver disease. Taken together, our results show that LinSTZ mice fed a HFD did not lead to a more robust model of MS-induced CKD, protected against kidney injury, but inducing liver damage. More studies are necessary to understand the kidney protective mechanisms of HFD when superimposed with hypertension and type 1 diabetes.
