Abstrakt: | Background and Objective: In acute kidney injury (AKI), a strong inflammatory component is activated in response to the renal damage, and one of the main mediators behind this process is the pro-inflammatory interleukin 6 or IL-6. Beside to this phenomenon, there are also alterations in different components of mineral metabolism, such as those dependent on fibroblast growth factor (FGF)23 and the anti-ageing cofactor klotho. The aim of this work was to explore the association between renal function and systemic levels of IL-6, as well as FGF23 and klotho in the early stages of AKI, analysing the predictive capacity of IL-6 in early mortality associated with AKI. Material and Methods: Plasma levels of IL-6, klotho and FGF23 were analysed in samples from 28 patients with AKI and related to renal function on hospital admission, and after 24 and 72 h. In addition, the predictive capacity of IL-6 on AKI-associated mortality was analysed at the three study time points. In an experimental nephrotoxic -AKI mouse model, systemic IL-6 and FGF23 values were also analysed 24 and 72 h after induction of kidney damage, as well as in mice overexpressing the anti-ageing protein, klotho. Results: Systemic IL-6 levels increased in AKI patients, especially in hospital admission time, and decreased in parallel with improving renal function. At the same time as IL-6 values increased, there was an increase in FGF23 and a decrease in klotho levels, with a significant and positive correlation between IL-6 and FGF23 levels. In addition, we obtained that systemic IL-6 levels were a good predictor of mortality in these patients, with an area under the curve equal to one at 72 h after AKI. In the experimental mouse AKI model, we also observed an increase in plasma levels in both IL-6 and FGF23 after 24 h of kidney damage. Nevertheless, in transgenic mice overexpressing klotho, there was no such increase in any of them. Conclusions: There is an association between renal damage and increased levels of IL-6 and FGF23 in patients with AKI, especially on hospital admission time. Moreover, IL-6 levels are able to predict mortality in these patients, being a promising prognostic biomarker at any study time with a strong prediction at 72 h after patient admission. Maintaining adequate klotho levels could prevent the IL-6 mediated inflammatory response and therefore also reduce the degree and severity of renal damage after AKI.
