Condition: Chronic Kidney Disease · Sponsor: Groupe Hospitalier de la Rochelle Ré Aunis
Persistent glomerular hyperfiltration is a characteristic feature of the early stages of kidney disease and represents a factor in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this context, the benefit of low-protein diets (less than 0.8g/kg/day) has been demonstrated in slowing the progression of CKD, although the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms remain unclear. Some studies suggest that the effects of protein on renal hemodynamics are primarily linked to the quality of the protein, particularly the amount of AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) consumed. Recently, edible seaweeds have gained popularity in Western countries due to their anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and antihypertensive properties. These seaweeds are also associated with the above-average longevity of certain Asian populations who consume them daily. Wakame seaweed (Undaria pinnatifida), which is locally harvested along the French Atlantic coast, has shown promising biological properties, notably antihypertensive and anti-diabetic effects. It has also been recently demonstrated that fucoxanthin, a compound found in high concentrations in wakame, possesses strong anti-AGE activity. Dietary modifications are essential for nephroprotection, but they are often difficult to implement. This highlights the need to develop approaches that are both acceptable on a daily basis and sustainable in the long term for patients.
