N-acetylcysteine modulates effect of the iron isomaltoside on peritoneal mesothelial cells.

2020 
Intravenous (i.v.) iron supplementation is used in patients on chronic peritoneal dialysis (pd). Iron induced intraperitoneal inflammation observed in our previous studies with iron sucrose may deteriorate the function of the peritoneum as the dialysis membrane. We evaluated effect iron compound, iron-isomaltoside-100 (IIS) on the peritoneal mesothelial cells (MC). We studied the effect of iv treatment with IIS ± N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on the dialysate parameters and function of MC. In 7 uremic pd patients IIS 200 mg was infused i.v. ± NAC 600 mg. Afterward, a 4 hours exchange was performed with Dianeal 1.5%. As a control dialysate exchange preceding IIS treatment was used. Inflammatory parameters of the drained dialysates as well as the dialysates and IIS effects on MC were evaluated in ex vivo experiments. Intravenous infusion of IIS resulted in an increase of the dialysate Fe (+147%, P < 0.01). Concentrations of the dialysates inflammatory mediators were increased: interleukin-6 (IL-6) +39%, P < 0.02, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP1) +50%, P < 0.02, and hyaluronan (HA) +64%, P < 0.02. Simultaneous i.v. infusion of NAC prevented increase of the dialysate inflammatory mediators. Dialysates collected after IIS treatment induced oxidative stress in MC (+29%, P < 0.05) and stimulated IL-6 synthesis (+64%, P < 0.05) in MC; no such effect was seen in dialysates obtained after simultaneous IIS and NAC i.v. treatment. IIS used as the additive to culture medium stimulated synthesis in MC of IL6 (+76%, P < 0.001) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) (28%, P < 0.001) whereas synthesis of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) was reduced (-16%, P < 0.001). These changes were prevented in the presence of NAC 1 mmol/L. Intravenous administration of IIS results in the mild stimulation of intraperitoneal inflammation. IIS changes MC phenotype to the inflammatory one with reduced fibrinolytic activity. These effects are prevented by NAC.
