| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Phosphate loading for short duration repressed EPO production in the kidney, however did not induce anemia. Phosphate loading for long duration induced anemia, but at the same time, brought about renal fibrosis. These findings might indicate that phosphate loading induce renal anemia, but does not support our hypothesis of “phosphate-driven anemia” that phosphate loading per se induce anemia not by worsening renal function.
Abandoning our prior hypothesis, we moved on to the next question if phosphate loading shorten the lifespan of rodents. To address this question, we administered a phosphate binder, lanthanum carbonate, to mice for nearly two years. We found that adding 3.0 % lanthanum carbonate to chow lengthened the survival time only in male mice. Observed better renal function of mice fed lanthanum carbonate might be the reason for improved survival. We will elucidate the mechanisms of renoprotection by phosphate restriction.
