- the excretion rate is understood by the principle of homeostasis that the amount of excretion in urine increases when the amount of intake or biosynthesis of the target component is large, and decreases when the amount of intake is small and the amount of biodegradation is large. Therefore, disorders and pathological changes in the kidneys, which control the major homeostasis of biological components, can affect changes in the excretion rate.

Further, when the total amount of D-form and L-form is used as an index, it is not necessary to analyze the D-form and L-form separately, and the amino acid can be analyzed without distinguishing between D-form and L-form. Even in that case, it can be separated and quantified by an enzyme method, an antibody method, GC, CE, or HPLC.
- the amount of D-serine and D-asparagine in the blood strongly correlates with the glomerular filtration rate as compared with the conventional marker creatinine. This is because the amount of creatinine in the blood is strongly affected by muscle mass, so it shows high values in athletes, patients with locomotive syndrome, and when a large amount of meat is ingested. It is derived from the fact that it cannot reflect accurate renal function because it shows low values in patients with sarcopenia, locomotive syndrome, implantation, and when protein intake is restricted. In healthy individuals with no prevalence, the amount of D-serine in the blood is kept in a very small range of about 1-2% of the total amount of serine in the urine, as opposed to 30 in the urine.

診断及び/又は治療目的のために大阪大学医学部付属病院腎臓内科(Department of Nephrology,Osaka University Hospital))に、2016年~2017年の間に入院した腎臓病患者からなるコホートから、原発性アルドステロン症(PA)、骨髄腫腎(IGAN)、糖尿病性腎症(DM)、IgA腎症(IGAN)の患者について、後ろ向き研究に用いた。IgA腎症の被験者は血圧が基準範囲を超えていたため、降圧剤としてアンジオテンシンII受容体拮抗薬(ARB)を投与した。それとは別に、前述した国立医薬基盤・健康・栄養研究所では15名の健常ボランティアを非腎臓病対象として採用した。試験プロトコルは、各施設における倫理委員会により承認され、かつすべての被験者から書類によるインフォームドコンセントを取得した。
サンプル調製
ヒト血漿及び尿からのサンプル調製を、下記のとおり行った:
20倍体積のメタノールを血漿に添加し、完全に混合した。遠心後、メタノールホモジネートから得られた上清の10μLを褐色チューブに移し、減圧乾燥させた。残渣に、20μLの200mMホウ酸ナトリウム緩衝液(pH8.0)及び5μLの蛍光標識試薬(無水MeCN中に40mMの4-フルオロ―7-ニトロ-2,1,3-ベンゾオキサジアゾール(NBD-F))を添加し、次いで60℃で2分加熱した。75μLの0.1%TFA水溶液(v/v)を加えて反応を止め、そして2μLの反応混合液を2次元HPLCに供した。
アミノ酸光学異性体を、以下の2次元HPLCシステムを用いて定量した。アミノ酸のNBD誘導体を、逆相カラム(KSAA RP、1.0mmi.d. ×400mm;株式会社資生堂)を用い移動相(5~35%MeCN、0~20%THF、及び0.05%TFA)で分離、溶出した。カラム温度は45℃、移動相の流速は25μL/分に設定した。分離したアミノ酸の画分を、マルチループバルブを用いて分取し、連続的にキラルカラム(KSAACSP-001S,1.5mmi.d.×250mm;資生堂)で光学分割した。移動相として、アミノ酸の保持に応じて、クエン酸(0~10mM)又はギ酸(0~4%)含むMeOH- MeCNの混合用液を用いた。NBD-アミノ酸は470nmの励起光を用い、530nmで蛍光検出した。NBD-アミノ酸の保持時間は、アミノ酸光学異性体の標準品により同定し、検量線により定量した。
血液中・尿中D-セリン量、血液中・尿中D-アスパラギン量及びクレアチニン量を下記式に代入して算出した。
UD-Serは、尿中のD-セリンの量を表し、
PD-Serは、血液中のD-セリンの量を表し、
Ucreは、尿中のクレアチニンの量を表し、
Pcreは、血液中のクレアチニンの量を表す。]
UD-Asnは、尿中のD-アスパラギンの量を表し、
PD-Asnは、血液中のD-アスパラギンの量を表し、
Ucreは、尿中のクレアチニンの量を表し、
Pcreは、血液中のクレアチニンの量を表す。]
前述の通り、非腎臓病被験者のD-セリン排泄率の基準値は平均値±1.96標準偏差から42.46~89.66%、その対数値は3.75~4.50と算出された。また、非腎臓病被験者のD-アスパラギン排泄率の基準値は平均値±1.96標準偏差から51.65~78.74%、その対数値は3.95~4.37と算出された。腎臓病被験者のD-セリン排泄率はそれぞれ、PAは117.24%で基準を超え、IGANは64.56%で基準内、DMは42.58%は基準下限(非腎臓病被験者の実測値を下回っている)、MGRSは107.01%で基準を超えており、明確に基準値を外れる病態が存在していた(図2)。また、腎臓病被験者のD-アスパラギン排泄率はそれぞれ、PAは150.78%で基準を超え、IGANは45.71%で基準内、DMは53.75%は基準下限(非腎臓病被験者の実測値を下回っている)、MGRSは105.25%で基準を超えており、明確に基準値を外れる病態が存在していた(図2)。
高血圧のためにARBを投与されたIGANのD-セリン排泄率は、64.56%から25.73%へと基準値を下回る値へ変動した(図2)。また、ARBを投与されたIGANのD-アスパラギン排泄率も、45.71%から35.39%へと基準値を下回る値へ変動した(図2)。薬剤投与等の治療介入において、血圧降下のような病態変化が排泄率に影響を与えていることが示唆され、薬理機構解明や創薬を目的とする研究、さらには治療介入時の効果のモニタリングにおいて、治療の継続・中断等の方針決定の補助におけるD-セリン排泄率及びD-アスパラギン排泄率の有用性が示された。
大阪大学病院に全身性エリテマトーデスで入院した36歳の女性で、同大学の倫理承認下で書面によるインフォームドコンセントを取得後に経時的に血液・尿を採取した。入院90日前の血清クレアチニンレベル0.57mg/dLから11.68mg/dLへ、尿中タンパク濃度は0.5g/gCreから4.0g/gCreへと急激に悪化し、血圧は122 / 65mmHg、心拍数は64bpm、経皮的動脈酸素飽和度は100%(室内空気)、体温は36.5℃。マウス潰瘍、脱毛、網膜出血が指摘されたが、異常な肺音、心音、下肢浮腫は観察されなかった。臨床検査では、血中ヘモグロビンは4.6g/dL、正常レベルの補体はC3:88mg/dL、C4:21mg/dL、陽性抗dsDNA抗体は13.0IU/mL1、及びP-ANCAは182.0U / mLで、急速進行性糸球体腎炎が疑われたため、血漿交換(PE)のセッションが続き、腎生検が実施された。糸球体の79%が細胞性三日月形を示し、13%が細胞性線維性三日月形を示し、糸球体毛細血管は泡立ちとスパイクで肥厚したが、糸球体硬化症は観察されなかった。間質領域は炎症性細胞の中等度のびまん性浸潤を示したが、細動はわずかしかなかった。管状萎縮は限局性かつ軽度であった。免疫蛍光染色は、IgG、IgA、IgM、C3、C4及びC1qについての顆粒状の全体的糸球体毛細血管壁陽性であった。ANCAと潜在的に関連する三日月形の糸球体腎炎、及びループス腎炎クラスVが診断された。プレドニゾロンパルス療法(3日間1g)、続いて経口プレドニゾロン(40mg/日)、間欠パルス静注シクロホスファミド療法(500mg/m2)及びミコフェノール酸モフェチル(MMF、500mg/日で治療された。さらに、8シリーズ血漿交換を行った。これらの治療に反応して、血清クレアチニンレベルは0.72mg / dLに低下したが、尿中タンパク質レベルは持続した。フォローアップ腎生検は、糸球体の細胞の三日月の後退を示したが、糸球体の30%が全体的に硬化し、毛細血管肥厚が持続した。
採取された血液・尿試料は、実施例1と同様に調整、D-セリン定量とともにD-セリン排泄率が算出された。
D-セリン排泄率は、治療開始直後0(基準以下)、8日後0(基準以下)、12日後0(基準以下)、16日後0(基準値以下)、22日後0(基準値以下)、29日後58.9%(基準内)、34日後87.6%(基準越え)、48時間後41.7%(基準内)となった。治療によりクレアチニンレベルが正常域に戻る中、D-セリン排泄率は一過性に上昇し、実施例1で算出した基準内に収まった。
採取された血液・尿試料は、実施例1と同様に調整、定量の後にD-セリン排泄率が算出された。
各被験者の血液中D-セリン量とD-セリン排泄率を、実施例1の腎臓病被験者とともに2軸の座標にプロットした(図13)。各病態血液中D-セリン量、D-セリン排泄率それぞれの情報のみよりもプロットの分離能が高くなっており、原因の鑑別や病勢の評価・判定の補助に有用であることが示された。
