Renal Manifestations of HIV/AIDS Ryan Sanford 7/17/09
Medications – FTD! Ayclovir – ATN, crystalluria, obstructive nephropathy Adefovir – Fanconi’s syndrome AMGs – ATN, RTA, Bartter’s Syndrome, Fanconi’s AMB – ATN, RTA, K and Mg Cidofovir – proximal tubule damage, HCO3- wasting Foscarnet – electrolytes, nephrogenic DI Indinavir – crystalluria and obstructive nephropathy NSAIDS – ATN, AIN Pentamidine – ATN, K and Ca Rifampin – AIN Sulfadiazine – Cyrstalluria, obstructive nephropathy, AIN
Aminoglycosides PCT: includes . . . receptor mediated endocytosis higher affinity for mitocondrial ribosomes Mitochondrial dysfunction loss of ATP Loss of basolateral Na/K ATPase Generation of proximal RTA or Fanconi syndrome
Aminoglycosides Thick ascending limb: Calcium Sensing Receptor [CaSR] on basolateral surface senses elevated Ca++, and leads to calciuria by inhibiting NKCC transporters and Na/K ATPase Bartters like syndrome [hypoMg, hypoCa, hypoK, metabolic alkalosis] in AMG use 2/2 activation of CaSR
Trimethoprim Collecting Duct GFR ≠ CrCl 2/2 some Cr secretion Inhibits ENaC [aldo] Loss in Na influx No K efflux to lumen 2/2 loss of lumen negative charge Hyperkalemia GFR ≠ CrCl 2/2 some Cr secretion TMP can inhibit this secretion, increasing SCr Not a reflection of decreased GFR
AKI Similar causes and approach to non HIV population Prerenal: increased with diarrhea, fever, poor PO Instrinsic: nephrotoxins, changed hemodynamics 50% AKI 2/2 ischemic injury 25% AKI 2/2 nephrotoxins Postrenal: crystal induced obstruciton Indinavir, acyclovir, sulfadiazine Thrombotic Microangiopathies [TMAs] HUS/TTP increasingly recognizied in HIV
CKD HIV Associated Nephropathy (HIVAN) Also Most common cause of CKD in HIV patients #3 cause of ESRD in African Americans between 20 and 64y Renal Bx imperative! – 40% of suspected HIVAN will be a different diagnosis Also Membranoproliferative GN Minimal change disease Membranous glomerulopathy IgA nephropathy
HIVAN Presentation Largely restricted to African Americans – 90% Other 10% - mixed heritage or Hispanics S/Sx Proteinuria, then azotemia Normotensive Large, echogenic kidneys on renal u/s Typically w/ CD4 < 200, but also seen at seroconversion Progress to ESRD in weeks to months
HIVAN Pathology FSGS and microcystic distortion of tubulointerstitium FSGS often of collapsing variant [but not pathognomonic] Microcysts filled with proteinaceous casts Proliferation of epithelial cells Proliferation of podocytes Some interstitial infiltration of immune cells Interstitial fibrosis EM: tubuloreticular inclusions
First, Normal Beans
EPITHELIAL HYPERTROPHY
Collapsing FSGS in HIVAN
Proteinaceous Casts
Tubuoreticular Inclusions HIV SLE IFNalpha in HCV
HIVAN Pathogenesis A direct role of the virus Renal epithelium able to support viral reproduction Renal epithelium an HIV reservoir
Management - ESRD CKD and HIV Transplant candidates: Undetectable viral burden Stable HAART regimen No evidence of OI or neoplasm CD4 > 200 ESRD: standard precautions and CKD therapy
Management - HIVAN Most evidence from poorly designed studies/observations ACEi: esp if SCr <2 mg/dL Corticosteroids: potential benefit; Increased OIs? Cyclosporine: has been used Progression to ESRD slowed by HAART
