PURPOSE: To study (1) the differences in the relative abundance of urinary proteins between children with kidney stones (RS) and hypercalciuria, hypocitraturia, normal metabolic work-up, and healthy controls (HC); (2) the association of these proteins with various diseases.
METHODS: Quantitative proteomic comparison of pooled urine from RS (N = 30, 24 females, mean age 12.95 ± 4.03 years) versus age- and gender-matched HC, using mass spectrometry. Relative protein abundance was estimated using spectral counting. Proteins of interest were selected using the following criteria: (1) ≥ 5 spectral counts; (2) ≥ twofold difference in spectral counts; and (3) ≤ 0.05 p value for the Fisher's Exact Test.
RESULTS: Of the 1813 proteins identified, 229 met the above criteria, with 162 proteins up-regulated in the RS group and 67 up-regulated in HC. The largest group of proteins (30 out of 229) was found to be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Of those, 16 were involved in coagulation, fibrinolysis, and adhesion, 10 in inflammation, 5 in lipid transport and metabolism, and 4 in oxidative stress. All except two were exclusively found in children with hypercalciuria and hypocitraturia, and were not seen in children with normal metabolic work-up.
CONCLUSION: Using a proteomic approach, we found a significant association between hypercalciuric and hypocitraturic nephrolithiasis and CVD in children. The shared risk factors among both diseases are endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis caused by abnormal coagulation, adhesion, disturbance of lipid transport and metabolism, oxidative stress and inflammation. Further understanding of the pathophysiological link between nephrolithiasis and CVD is necessary for developing new therapeutic targets.
