Does Hemodialysis Increase Protein Breakdown? Dissociation between Whole-Body Amino Acid Turnover and Regional Muscle Kinetics

Abstract: Hemodialysis (HD) is a protein catabolic procedure. Whole-body amino acid turnover studies identify dialysate amino acid loss and reduced protein synthesis as the catabolic events; proteolysis is not increased. Regional amino acid kinetics, however, document enhanced muscle protein breakdown as the cause of the catabolism; muscle protein synthesis also increased but to a lesser magnitude than the increment in protein breakdown. This discordance between whole-body and regional kinetics is best explained by the … Show more

“…This may have been due to higher levels of renal dysfunction and poor nutritional status, reflecting both an inflammatory state and poor nutritional status among the patients. The high prevalence of these conditions may also have been due to a hypercatabolic state in CKD, caused by accumulation of proinflammatory cytokines and a combination of factors like uremic toxicity, insulin resistance, and amino acid losses 13 during the dialysis procedure, rather than mere lack of a high protein diet.…”

“…The lack of increased muscle mass after strength training may be related to a disturbed balance between protein synthesis and protein breakdown in patients undergoing dialysis [21]. Even though strength training induces an increased protein synthesis, the protein breakdown may exceed the synthesis due to IR [22] and the dialysis per se [23] resulting in a negative net balance. Thus, the observed effect on glucose tolerance in these patients is probably associated with improvements of e.g.…”

“…Principal causes of malnutrition include dietary restrictions, metabolic acidosis, hormonal alterations, dialytic nutrient losses, catabolic properties of dialysis, and chronic inflammation [6,7,8,9,10]. Patient history and physical examination are fundamental tools for diagnosing malnutrition.…”
