Aim To investigate the correlation of renal tubular inflammatory and injury markers with renal uric acid excretion in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Methods Seventy-three patients with CKD were enrolled. Fasting blood and morning urine sample were collected for routine laboratory measurements. At the same time, 24 h of urine was collected for urine biochemistry analyses, and 10 ml was extracted from the 24-h urine sample to further detect renal tubular inflammatory and injury markers, including interleukin-18 (IL-18), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1). The patients were divided into three tertile groups according to their 24-h urinary uric acid (24-h UUA) levels (UUA1: 24-h UUA ≤ 393.12 mg; UUA2: 393.12 < 24-h UUA ≤ 515.76 mg; UUA3: 24-h UUA > 515.76 mg). The general clinical and biochemical indexes were compared. Multivariable linear regression models were used to test the association of IL-18/Urinary creatinine concentration (IL-18/CR), IL-1β/CR, NGAL/CR and KIM-1/CR with renal uric acid excretion indicators. Results All of tested renal tubular inflammation- and injury-related urinary markers were negatively associated with 24-h UUA and UEUA, and the negative correlation still persisted after adjusting for multiple influencing factors including urinary protein and eGFR. Further group analyses showed that these makers were significantly higher in the UUA1 than in the UUA3 group. Conclusions Our findings suggest that markers of urinary interstitial inflammation and injury in CKD patients are significantly correlated with 24-h UUA and Urinary excretion of uric acid (UEUA), and those with high 24-h UUA have lower levels of these markers. Renal uric acid excretion may also reflect the inflammation and injury of renal tubules under certain conditions.
