Abstract

Introduction: Indoxyl sulfate (IS) is a protein-bound uremic toxin that causes uremic sarcopenia. IS has poor dialysis clearance; however, the addition of a binding competitor improves its removal efficiency.

Methods: Dialysis experiments were performed using N-acetyl-l-tryptophan (L-NAT) instead of l-tryptophan (Trp) using pooled sera obtained from dialysis patients. The molecular structures of L-NAT and Trp were similar to that of IS. Therefore, we examined whether Trp and L-NAT were involved in muscle atrophy in the same manner as IS by performing culture experiments using a human myotube cell line.

Results: The removal efficiency of L-NAT was the same as that of Trp. However, L-NAT concentrations in the pooled sera increased at the end of the experiment. Trp (1 mM) decreased the area of human myocytes, similar to IS, whereas L-NAT did not.

Conclusion: L-NAT is a binding competitor with the ability to remove protein-bound IS while preventing sarcopenia.

N-乙酰-L-色氨酸对蛋白结合的尿毒症毒素硫酸吲哚酚解吸的影响以及对尿毒症少肌症的影响。

引言：硫酸吲哚酚（IS）是一种与蛋白质结合的尿毒症毒素，可导致尿毒症少肌症。IS透析清除率低；然而，添加结合竞争对手提高了其去除效率。方法：使用从透析患者获得的混合血清，使用N-乙酰-l-色氨酸（l-NAT）代替l-色氨酸进行透析实验。L-NAT和Trp的分子结构与IS相似。因此，我们通过使用人肌管细胞系进行培养实验来检测Trp和L-NAT是否以与IS相同的方式参与肌肉萎缩。结果：L-NAT的去除效率与Trp的去除效率相同，但在实验结束时，合并血清中的L-NAT浓度增加。Trp（1 mM）降低了人肌细胞的面积，类似于IS，而L-NAT没有。结论：L-NAT是一种结合竞争对手，能够去除蛋白结合的is，同时预防少肌症。
