In the case of dialysis patients, a low normal level of ECV is maintained
by the powerful tool of ultrafiltration,
which if properly used along with
moderate dietary sodium restriction and
maintenance of natriuresis by diuretics,
are the only proven method of
controlling blood pressure in the hemodialysis population.

- blood pressure independent target organ damage (cardiovascular damage, progression of CKD)

Marinobufagenin cardiotonic steroid inhibitor of Na+ K+ ATP’ase
- concentration correlated to cardiomyopathy in subtotally nephrectomised rats - cardiomyopathy reproduced by administration of marinobufagenin
- cardiomyopathy prevented by neutralizing antibodies to marinobufagenin
- deserves investigation in dialsysis patients

Therapeutic targets and potential future approaches

Epidemiological facts
Underlying cardiac disease
New therapeutic targets- salt and salt mediated hormones- (phosphate- vitamin D) sympathetic activity
Neglected cardiovascular risks- depression- sleep apnea- disrupted biorhythm
Attractive areas for future investigation - micro-RNA – arhythmia/cardiac fibrosis- salt and marinobufagenin - sympathetic overactivity and beta blockers - oxydative stress- target blodd pressure

• Renalase – novel amino-oxydase synthesized as precursor in the kidney– prorenalase transformed into active renalase by catecholamines or blood
pressure increase– renalase degrades catecholamines
• Renalase -/- mice are hypertensive and susceptible to ischemic myocardial damage
