Popis: | During continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis, solutes capable of stimulating fibroblast activity could be transferred into dialysate; their significance and consequences remain to be established. Sixty-three stable non-selected patients on CAPD were included in this study. Peritoneal transport for water and small solutes was assessed. To explore the mitogenic-induced capacity of peritoneal nocturnal effluent, 50 microliters were added to culture plates of mice and human fibroblasts. Peritoneal effluent alone shows a mitogenic potency slightly greater than insulin and clearly less than bovine fetal serum. When coadjuvants are added, mitogenicity increases but in a variable manner among patients. No differences can be observed in relation to diabetes mellitus, time on CAPD, previous peritonitis, and losses of diffusion capacity. We noted significant inverse linear correlations between mitogenicity value and ultrafiltration, effluent calcium, and creatinine. Neither adrenergic nor calcium-channel blockers influenced these values. We conclude that the peritoneal effluent of CAPD patients has a variable effect on fibroblast growth. Some of the blood components seem to be implicated in this activity. Reduced peritoneal ultrafiltration capacity, probably by a concentration mechanism, is related to a greater mitogenic potency in peritoneal effluent. CAPD patients with impaired ultrafiltration may be at high risk for autoactivation of peritoneal fibroblasts, mainly in mesothelial denudate states. |
