Cystatin C Level in Prediabetic and Diabetic Patients

open access: bronzeSouthern Clinics of Istanbul Eurasia, 2017
INTRODUCTION[|]Cystatin C is a novel marker of kidney function, considered to be more accurate than creatinine. Serum Cystatin C has been shown to correlate with the progression of pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Cystatin C Is Not Causally Related to Coronary Artery Disease. [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS ONE, 2015
Strong and independent associations between plasma concentration of cystatin C and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) suggests causal involvement of cystatin C.The aim of our study was to assess whether there is a causal relationship between plasma ...

Cystatin C is downregulated in prostate cancer and modulates invasion of prostate cancer cells via MAPK/Erk and androgen receptor pathways. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Cystatin C is believed to prevent tumor progression by inhibiting the activities of a family of lysosomal cysteine proteases. However, little is known about the precise mechanism of cystatin C function in prostate cancer.

Megalin dependent urinary cystatin C excretion in ischemic kidney injury in rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Cystatin C, a marker of kidney injury, is freely filtered in the glomeruli and reabsorbed by the proximal tubules. Megalin and cubilin are endocytic receptors essential for reabsorption of most filtered proteins.

GFR Estimation After Cystatin C Reference Material Change

open access: yesKidney International Reports, 2021
Introduction: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is routinely estimated with cystatin C. In June 2010, the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry (IFCC) released a certified cystatin C reference material (ERM-DA471/IFCC), and new cystatin C ...

Association of serum cystatin C level with coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden: a comprehensive analysis of observational studies and genetic study

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2023
Background and Aims Epidemiological studies show that high circulating cystatin C is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), independent of creatinine-based renal function measurements.

Serum Cystatin C as a Potential Marker for Glomerular Filtration Rate in Patients with Cholangiocarcinoma

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2020
Background: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the second most common primary hepatobiliary cancer. These patients have meager prognosis and short-term survival. Precise assessment of glomerular filtration rate is a fundamental aspect of clinical care in cancer
