Related Stories Next Story Source: Indiana University Date: INDIANAPOLIS New research into the origin of kidney stone formation published in the March 1 issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation may well change the direction of the most basic level of research in that area. The study, conducted at Indiana University School of Medicine, Clarian Health Partners and the University of Chicago, will dispel the current beliefs of where stone formation begins, said Andrew P. Evan, Ph.D., the article's lead author. Dr. Evan, who is a professor of anatomy and cell biology at IU School of Medicine, said the research did confirm a hypothesis published in 1940 by Alexander Randall, M.D. Dr. Randall theorized that kidney stones developed from crystals of calcium phosphate in a centrally located area of the kidney known as the papilla tip. However, analytical and imaging tools available during Dr. Randall's day were inadequate to confirm his hypothesis. Today, the primary theory is that cell injury is necessary before crystals can attach to kidney tissue and develop and that crystals are composed of calcium oxalate. Both theories were refuted by the current Clinical Investigation article.

Extractions: Overview Kidney stones (calculi) are hardened mineral deposits that form in the kidney. They originate as microscopic particles and develop into stones over time. The medical term for this condition is nephrolithiasis, or renal stone disease The kidneys filter waste products from the blood and add them to the urine that the kidneys produce. When waste materials in the urine do not dissolve completely, crystals and kidney stones are likely to form. Small stones can cause some discomfort as they pass out of the body. Regardless of size, stones may pass out of the kidney, become lodged in the ureter (tube that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder), and cause severe pain that begins in the lower back and radiates to the side or groin. A lodged stone can block the flow of urine, causing pressure to build in the affected ureter and kidney. Increased pressure results in stretching and spasm, which cause severe pain.

Extractions: Findings may change direction of research in that area WEDNESDAY, March 5 (HealthScoutNews) An American study that provides new information about the formation of kidney stones may change the direction of basic research in that area. The researchers did confirm a longstanding hypothesis that kidney stones develop from calcium phosphate crystals in a centrally located area of the kidney called the papilla tip. However, the new study refuted the current theory that cell injury is necessary before crystals can attach to kidney tissue and develop into kidney stones. This new study also says the crystals are composed of calcium phosphate, which contradicts the current belief that the crystals are composed of calcium oxalate. Calcium phosphate is a common component of bone and teeth, and the researchers suggest that kidney stones first form as calcium phosphate and then change into calcium oxalate. For the study, which appears in the March 1 issue of the

(NASA) Mission: Expedition Three, ISS Mission 7A.1, STS-105 Space Shuttle Flight Experiment Location on ISS: n/a Principal Investigator: Dr. Peggy A. Whitson, Johnson Space Center, Houston Project Manager: Michelle Kamman, Johnson Space Center, Houston Overview Human exposure to microgravity the unique low-gravity environment inside the International Space Station and other spacecraft results in a number of physiological changes to the human body. Among these changes are alterations in renal function, fluid redistribution, bone loss and muscle atrophy, all of which contribute to an altered urinary environment and the potential for renal stone formation during and immediately after flight. Previous data have demonstrated that human exposure to microgravity increases the risk of renal (kidney) stone development during and immediately after space flight. In-flight changes previously observed include decreased urine volume and increased urinary excretion of calcium, phosphate, and sodium.

Extractions: Using infrared analysis, researchers looked at tissue from three groups of kidney patients: calcium oxalate stone formers, who account for 75 percent of all kidney stone patients; patients prone to developing kidney stones following intestinal bypass surgery for obesity; and a control group of patients who had malignant tumors in their ureters, a tube that carries urine to the bladder. Researchers learned that in the first group, the calcium phosphate crystals are first deposited in the interstitial tissue inside the papilla, as surmised by Dr. Randall. However, in the obesity-related bypass group, the crystals begin in the lining of very small tubules as they thread their way to the ureter. The control group showed no sign of stone formation.
