Gut Microbiome Diversity and Uric Acid in Serum and Urine
Introduction
An increasing body of evidence has shown the importance of the gut microbiota in modulating serum uric acid (SUA) levels. In this study, we aimed to determine the association between gut microbiome diversity, diet, SUA, and fractional excretion of uric acid (FEUA) in the kidney.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted in 53 adults with normal or elevated SUA and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) range from 37 to 124 ml/min per 1.73 m2. Fecal microbiome composition was analyzed using 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing; and alpha diversity was expressed as reverse Simpson, Shannon, and Richness indices. Dietary data were collected, and dietary patterns were identified using principal component analysis. Unadjusted linear regression and models adjusted for sex, waist-hip ratio (WHR), and eGFR were used to study the association between gut microbial diversity, dietary pattern scores, and SUA/FEUA.
Results
Shannon index was negatively associated with SUA after multiple adjustment (β −36.4, 95% CI [−66.2 to −6.7], P = 0.017; adjusted R2 = 0.62, P < 0.001). Sex (standardized β = 0.52) and WHR (standardized β = 0.35) had the highest effect on SUA, followed by Shannon diversity index (standardized β = −0.22). We found that Shannon index (standardized β = 0.49, P < 0.001) was positively associated with FEUA after adjustment for sex and “sweet” dietary pattern. This model explained 40% of the variability in FEUA (P < 0.001). None of the dietary patterns were associated with SUA or FEUA.
Conclusion
A higher gut microbial diversity was associated with lower SUA and more efficient elimination of uric acid by the kidneys. There is a need for studies assessing efficacy and safety of interventions on the gut microbiome as a treatment of hyperuricemia.
期刊介绍:
Kidney International Reports, an official journal of the International Society of Nephrology, is a peer-reviewed, open access journal devoted to the publication of leading research and developments related to kidney disease. With the primary aim of contributing to improved care of patients with kidney disease, the journal will publish original clinical and select translational articles and educational content related to the pathogenesis, evaluation and management of acute and chronic kidney disease, end stage renal disease (including transplantation), acid-base, fluid and electrolyte disturbances and hypertension. Of particular interest are submissions related to clinical trials, epidemiology, systematic reviews (including meta-analyses) and outcomes research. The journal will also provide a platform for wider dissemination of national and regional guidelines as well as consensus meeting reports.
