ABSTRACT
Bone tissue alterations and vascular calcification (VC) are commonly found in patients with chronic renal failure (CKD). The importance of phosphorus (P) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) is not clear, yet. An in vitro study showed that inorganic phosphate was able to transform vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) into calcifying cells confirmed for up-expression of Runx2 in these cells. Besides, it has been demonstrated the in vivo expression of Runx2 in intimal and medial VSMC in calcified arteries of CKD patients. We evaluated the effect of phosphorus (P) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) on bone remodeling and on the expression of bone proteins (Runx2, Osteoprotegerin, type I Collagen, Osteocalcin, Osteopontin and NF?B) in aortic valve and heart in experimental uremia. Wistar rats were submitted to parathyroidectomy, nephrectomy (Nx) and continuous infusion of 1-34 rat PTH in physiologic or 5 times the normal values. The diet was identical, however the P content was low (LP 0,2%) or high (HP 1,2%). We performed biochemical, histomorphometric, imuno-histochemistry and RT-PCR analysis. Rats submitted to Nx developed renal failure. The P overload contributed to loss bone volume independent of uremia. Besides Nx animals that received high PTH doses bone loss was slight probably because of the anabolic effect of PTH, which was attenuated by the phosphorus overload toxic. VC was only observed in Nx animals that received high PTH doses independently of P overload. However, the P overload with physiologic PTH doses induced phenotypic changes in VSMC that was confirmed for the up-expression of Runx2 on aorta of these animals. The high concentrations of P and PTH promoted histological changes on expression of osteoprotegerin and type I Collagen in calcified arteries and heart. This study does not established ideal levels of PTH sufficient for the maintenance of the bone integrity and also to prevent VC when animal are submitted to different P overload.
