Although disturbed phosphate metabolism frequently accompanies chronic kidney disease (CKD), its causal role in CKD progression remains unclear. It is also not fully understood how excess salt induces organ damage. We here show that urinary phosphate-containing nanoparticles promote kidney injury in salt-sensitive hypertension. In Dahl salt-sensitive rats, salt loading resulted in a significant increase in urinary phosphate excretion without altering serum phosphate levels. An intestinal phosphate binder sucroferric oxyhydroxide attenuated renal inflammation and proteinuria in this model, along with the suppression of phosphaturia. Using cultured proximal tubule cells, we confirmed direct pathogenic roles of phosphate-containing nanoparticles in renal tubules. Finally, transcriptome analysis revealed a potential role of complement C1q in renal inflammation associated with altered phosphate metabolism. These data demonstrate that increased phosphate excretion promotes renal inflammation in salt-sensitive hypertension and suggest a role of disturbed phosphate metabolism in the pathophysiology of hypertensive kidney disease and high salt-induced kidney injury.
