NMR STUDIES OF HUMAN CYSTATIN C – STABLE ISOTOPE LABELING OF HUMAN CYSTATIN C
The objective of this study was to obtain a double and triple labeled human cystatin C (hCC). Another objective was to record sets of 2D and 3D NMR spectra of the hCC dimer (in a solution) using a 700MHz spectrometer.

Cystatin C and Cardiovascular Risk [PDF]
Abstract Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cardiovascular events. Cystatin C, a protease inhibitor synthesized in all nucleated cells, has been proposed as a replacement for serum creatinine for the assessment of renal function, particularly to detect ...

Cystatin C in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Changes in expression and secretion levels of cystatin C (CysC) in the brain in various neurological disorders and in animal models of neurodegeneration underscore a role for CysC in these conditions. A polymorphism in the CysC gene (CST3) is linked to increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Diagnostic and prognostic ability of urinary NGAL in patients with cirrhosis and AKI. Abstract Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) commonly occurs in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Urinary neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin (uNGAL) could help discriminate between different etiologies of AKI.

Elevated cystatin-C concentration is associated with progression to prediabetes: the Western New York Study [PDF]
OBJECTIVE – We conducted a nested case-control investigation to examine if elevated baseline concentrations of cystatin-C predicted progression from normoglycaemia to prediabetes over 6 years of follow-up from the Western New York Health Study. RESEARCH

Cystatin C and Uncontrolled Hypertension
Increased serum level of cystatin C, a sensitive biomarker for renal function, seems to predict adverse cardiovascular events. We investigated the predictive value of serum cystatin C for controlling hypertension in an observational study.We screened 1037 adults residing in both rural and urban communities.
