Brief Summary:
Prevent CSA-AKI Cardiac Surgery Associated Acute Kidney Injury trial is a double blinded randomized controlled trial 242 patients undergoing elective cardiopulmonary bypass surgery CPBwill either receive a placebo or daily 1200 mg of Co enzyme Q10 CoQ10 and 1000 mg of Glutathione GSH the first dose will be given the day before surgery and continues while admitted up to 1 week Blood and urine samples will be collected Adverse events related to the study drugs will be collected
Detailed Description:
AKI Acute Kidney Injury is a serious and common complication post Cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass CPB the incidence is up to 30 Independent predictor for 30-day mortality with a 41 62 in AKI stage III without and with the needs for RRT Renal Replacement Therapy respectively Its also associated with an a 3-fold increase in the long-term risk of ESRD End Stage Renal Disease Despite the high burden of CPB-induced AKI our understanding of the pathophysiology still primitive that makes us limited in designing directed therapies for prophylaxis early detection and interventions that can lower its incidence severity and progression CPB induced AKI is multifactorial however renal ischemia-reperfusion injury RIRI is considered a major factor poor renal perfusion driven by hemodynamic and volume changes increased systemic inflammation endothelial and epithelial cell injury and perioperative use of nephrotoxic agents all contribute to AKI post cardiac surgery
Renal mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of RIRI reperfusion following ischemia causes opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore MPTP leading to depolarization of mitochondrial membrane increased production of reactive oxygen species ROS and release of apoptotic proteins mitochondrial disruption contributes to impairment of ATP dependent cellular repair mechanisms cell death and persistent suppression of mitochondrial biogenesis a process of which cells form new mitochondria furthermore cell injury releases mitochondrial endogenous damage associated molecular patterns DAMPs Mitochondrial DAMPs MTD activates toll-like receptor-9 TLR9 which results in innate immune cascade activation and further renal injury Loss of Mitochondrial function and integrity has been linked to initiation progression and recovery phases of ischemia reperfusion acute kidney injury In mice subjected to Sham surgery UmtDNA Urinary Mitochondrial Deoxyribonucleic Acid increased after 10 min of ischemia positively correlated with ischemia time and negatively correlated with renal cortical mtDNA and mitochondrial gene expression Levels of UmtDNA in AKI was evaluated with different population and different results UmtDNA level correlated with renal function recovery but not with AKI severity following cardiac surgery Same finding of correlation between UmtDNA with renal recovery was observed but wasnt statistically significant additionally UmtDNA level reflected the severity of AKI and duration of renal replacement therapy in patients admitted with AKI Co Q10 or ubiquinone is an essential mitochondrial co-factor that has a critical role as a component of the electron transport chain and free radical scavenger Co Q10 levels were found to be low in critically ill patients lower levels found in post cardiac arrest with correlation poor neurological outcome and higher mortality American heart association included CoQ10 as a promising neuroprotective agent significantly lower left ventricular ejection fractions LVEFs seen in the lowest tertile of CoQ10 Biopsies taken from patients with cardiomyopathy showing increasing severity of heart disease correlate with lower levels of serum and myocardial deficiency of CoQ10 supplementation with CoQ10 resulted in significant increases in both myocardial and serum levels as well as reduction of disease severity Coenzyme Q10 as Adjunctive Treatment of Chronic Heart Failure has shown that CoQ10 supplement reduced the primary 2-year end point of cardiovascular death hospital stays for HF Heart Failure or mechanical support or cardiac transplant It was also demonstrated that CoQ10 reduced the risk of congestive heart failure hospitalization and its complications like pulmonary edema and cardiac asthma Q12 supplement is safe and widely available as an over-the-counter CoQ10 is available as ubiquinol reduced form or ubiquinone oxidized form Additionally the ubiquinol containing formulation resulted in a higher plasma CoQ10 levels compared with ubiquinone formulations after a single dose of supplement Dose of 1200 mg chose based on safety shown in many clinical trial data for CoQ10 The half-life of CoQ10 is 217 h 28 Mitochondria consume about 90 of the cellular O2 for ATP Adenosine Tri-Phosphate synthesis through oxidative phosphorylation optimizing mitochondrial function and reducing oxygen free radicals may enhance cellular function and mitigate cellular injury thereby leading to improved outcome Despite the accumulating evidence on the relevance of mitochondrial dysfunction in AKI initiation and progression and the crucial role mitochondrial therapies such as Co Q10 Glutathione would play in renal protection and recovery human data in this field are very limited Using renal scintigraphy immunohistochemical evaluation it was demonstrated that CoQ10 decreased tissue oxidative stress levels scores of histopathology and apoptosis and decreased quantitative scintigraphic parameters with increased split renal function in ischemic kidney The mitochondria-targeted Triphenylphosphine CoQ10 nanoparticles T-NPCoQ10 which resulted in alleviation of mtDNA damage suppressed inflammatory and apoptotic responses and improved renal function in both cell and animal models In human Co Q10 with Trimetazidine significantly lowered the incidence of Contrast induced nephropathy in previous research
Glutathione GSH In addition to Oxidative stress as a key in cardiac surgery associated AKI iron-dependent lipid peroxidation resulting in cell death play an important role this process starts with intracellular glutathione GSH depletion Glutathione S-transferases GST are a diverse group of phase II detoxification enzymes that works as a scavenger through conjugation of glutathione to a wide variety of electrophiles and reactive oxygen species Alpha-GST isoforma-GST has specificity for the proximal tubule and pi- GST isoformpi-GST thats confined to distal tubule
It was demonstrated that post cardiac surgery Urinary pi- GST levels predicted development of AKI and overall prognosis in ischemiareperfusion mouse models that total GST activity is reduced by 35 during 0 4 h AKI initiation and 18 or 72 h maintenance phases In previous research acute kidney injury model established by systemic glutathione depletion in mice In patients undergoing cardiac surgery low levels of cardiac and systemic glutathione found to correlate to the functional status and structural cardiac abnormalities of patients with cardiac diseases it was shown that that high levels of serum GST Pi in the first 6 h after birth are associated with an increased AKI and mortality in prematurely born neonates Experiment showed exogenous glutathione supplement alleviated Gentamicin induced AKI in rats intoxicated with gentamycin partially by inhibiting oxidative stress and intrinsic apoptosis Glutathione supplements are safe and already available over the counter studies have shown effectiveness of daily Glutathione administration at elevating stores of Glutathione and impacting the immune function and levels of oxidative stress
