Popis: The presence of obesity and metabolic syndrome is strongly linked with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but the mechanisms responsible for the association are poorly understood. Here, we tested the hypothesis that mice with obesity and metabolic syndrome might have increased susceptibility to CKD from liquid high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) by favoring the absorption and utilization of fructose. We evaluated the pound mouse model of metabolic syndrome to determine if it showed baseline differences in fructose transport and metabolism and whether it was more susceptible to chronic kidney disease when administered HFCS. Pound mice have increased expression of fructose transporter (Glut5) and fructokinase (the limiting enzyme driving fructose metabolism) associated with enhanced fructose absorption. Pound mice receiving HFCS rapidly develop CKD with increased mortality rates associated with intrarenal mitochondria loss and oxidative stress. In pound mice lacking fructokinase, the effect of HFCS to cause CKD and early mortality was aborted, associated with reductions in oxidative stress and fewer mitochondria loss. Obesity and metabolic syndrome show increased susceptibility to fructose-containing sugars and increased risk for CKD and mortality. Lowering added sugar intake may be beneficial in reducing the risk for CKD in subjects with metabolic syndrome.
