The Western-style diet: a major risk factor for impaired kidney function and chronic kidney disease

Abstract: The Western-style diet is characterized by its highly processed and refined foods and high contents of sugars, salt, and fat and protein from red meat. It has been recognized as the major contributor to metabolic disturbances and the development of obesity-related diseases including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. Also, the Western-style diet has been associated with an increased incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). A combination of dietary factors contributes to the impairment… Show more

“…In this work, we found that HFD augmented TGFβ1 and collagen IV gene expression, increased renal lipid accumulation, as well as heightened oxidative stress in both glomerular and tubular compartments in the kidneys of Dia-HF mice, resulting in significant glomerulosclerosis, tubular fibrosis, and apoptosis. Although our findings are consonant with other reports (14)(15)(16), results reported in remnant kidney rats receiving HFD (33) seem to ameliorate these parameters/pathways to prevent kidney injury. Currently, we do not have further explanation for this discrepancy beside species differences.…”

“…Compelling evidence from both experimental (14)(15)(16) and human studies (17,18) have suggested that perirenal and/or visceral fat depots may mediate the development of chronic kidney disease and hypertension. CD36 (19)(20)(21)(22) and fatty acid-binding protein 4 (Fabp4) (23)(24)(25)(26)(27) may mediate chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, oxidant stress, and fibrosis involved in proatherogenic hyperlipidemic states such as obesity.…”

“…The two study arms provide a comparison of conventional canola oil (low SFA, high MUFA, and good source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid [PUFA]) with an oil mixture representing the Western diet. The Western diet is characterized by high intakes of high-fat (high SFA and rich in omega-6 PUFA 23,24 ) and high-sugar foods. In our study, the fatty acid composition of the canola oil-containing foods (100% conventional canola oil) would provide 6% SFA, 62% MUFA, 32% PUFA (2:1 ratio for omega-6:omega-3 PUFA), whereas the fatty acid composition of the food items containing the oil mixture representing the Western …”

“…It has been recognized as the major contributor to metabolic disturbances, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases [5]. Also, it has been associated with an increased incidence of chronic kidney disease CKD [6]. A combination of dietary factors contributes to the impairment of renal vascularization, steatosis and inflammation, hypertension, and impaired renal hormonal regulation.…”
