reported to be closely associated with low levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) due to exposure to high levels of serum calcium following the administration of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) or vitamin D agents. This study was conducted to clarify the therapeutic effect of a non-calcemic phosphate binder, sevelamer hydrochloride (sevelamer), for hypoparathyroidism in hemodialysis patients with or without diabetes mellitus. Methods: Based on entry criteria, 40 Japanese chronic hemodialysis patients (22 males and 18 females with a mean age of 60.6, 14 diabetic patients and 26 non-diabetic patients) were switched from CaCO3 to sevelamer for 48 weeks. Serum calcium, phosphate, intact (i) PTH and PTH-(1-84) were analyzed. Bone remodeling activity was evaluated by determining intact osteocalcine (iOC), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP). Results: The switch from CaCO3 to sevelamer significantly decreased the serum levels of calcium, resulting in the elevation of iPTH levels from 31±18 pg/mL to 95±96 pg/mL by 48 weeks. In contrast, serum phosphate levels remained similar to those in patients with CaCO3 treatment. Concomitantly, the levels of BAP and iOC were elevated. Further, these beneficial effects on bone turnover were observed in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Conclusion: Sevelamer reduced the calcium concentration and thereby increased PTH levels, resulting in the improvement of markers of bone turnover. The administration of sevelamer is of therapeutic benefit for the improvement of bone remodeling activity even in hemodialysis patients with diabetes. © 2007 The Japanese Society of Internal Medicine.

may be a good marker for monitoring disease activity of interstitial pneumonia. This study was designed to ascertain the clinical significance of serum KL-6 levels in interstitial pneumonia associated with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-related vasculitis. Methods. Serum KL-6 levels were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Patients. We examined 20 healthy subjects, 13 patients with perinuclear (myeloperoxidase, MPO) ANCA-related vasculitis and 12 dermatomyositis (DM)/polymyositis (PM) patients as disease controls in this study. Six out of 13 patients with ANCA-related vasculitis had interstitial pneumonia. Results. Serum levels of KL-6 in ANCA-positive patients with interstitial pneumonia were significantly elevated, while they remained as low as those of healthy subjects in ANCA- positive patients without interstitial pneumonia. Similarly, KL-6 levels in sera were higher in 12 dermatomyositis/polymyositis patients with interstitial pneumonia, while they remained low in DM/PM patients without interstitial pneumonia. Moreover, the elevated serum KL-6 level was reduced during the convalescence induced by glucocorticoid therapy and reflected the disease activity of interstitial pneumonia associated with ANCA-related vasculitis. Conclusion. These data suggest that the measurement of serum KL-6 levels may be a good monitoring system for the diagnosis and follow-up of interstitial pneumonia of patients with ANCA-related vasculitis.

s well as the development of cardiovascular disease. Fibrocytes have been shown to contribute to organ fibrosis. In this study, the presence of fibrocytes was investigated immunohistochemically in kidney biopsy specimens from 100 patients with chronic kidney disease. In addition, 6 patients with thin basement membrane disease were studied as a disease control. In patients with chronic kidney disease, the infiltration of fibrocytes was observed mainly in the interstitium. The number of interstitial fibrocytes in patients with chronic kidney disease was higher than that in patients with thin basement membrane disease. The number of infiltrated fibrocytes in the interstitium correlated well with the severity of tubulointerstitial lesions, such as interstitial fibrosis, in patients with chronic kidney disease. In addition, there were significant correlations between the number of interstitial fibrocytes and the number of CD68-positive macrophages in the interstitium as well as urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein-1/CCL2 levels. In particular, there was an inverse correlation between the number of interstitial fibrocytes and kidney function at the time of biopsy. Finally, the numbers of interstitial fibrocytes and macrophages as well as urinary CCL2 levels were significantly decreased during convalescence induced by glucocorticoid therapy. These results suggest that fibrocytes may be involved in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease through the interaction with macrophages as well as CCL2. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

in tumor-related inflammation. However, the pathogenesis of MDSCs for autoimmune disease has not been investigated as yet. The aim of this study was to address whether MDSCs contribute to autoimmune organ injury in lupus-prone mice. Methods: MDSCs were analyzed by flow cytometric staining of CD11b+ GR-1+ in MRL-Faslpr mice. CD4+ T-cell proliferation assay was performed by coculture with CD11b+ GR-1+ splenocytes. The percentage of immunosuppressive cells was examined during disease progression. Expression of chemokine receptor on immunosuppressive cells was analyzed, and chemotaxis assay was performed. Results: CD11b+ GR-1low cells had a suppressive effect on CD4+ T-cell proliferation, which was restored by an arginase-1 inhibitor. CD11b+ GR-1low cells increased in percentage during disease progression in kidney and blood. The number of migrated CD11b+ GR-1low cells increased in the presence of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1/CCL2. Conclusion: We assessed the involvement of CD11b+ GR-1low cells in autoimmune disorder in MRL-Faslpr mice. These cells regulate immunological responses via CCL2/CCR2 signaling. The regulation of immunosuppressive monocytes may provide novel therapeutic strategy for organ damage in autoimmune diseases. © 2010 Japanese Society of Nephrology..
