NMR STUDIES OF HUMAN CYSTATIN C – STABLE ISOTOPE LABELING OF HUMAN CYSTATIN C
TASK Quarterly, 2014 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.

Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation Based on Cystatin C Formulas among Neonates [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Neonatology, 2021 Background: Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best indicator to assess renal function; however, it is difficult to perform it, especially in neonates.

Creatinine-Cystatin C Discrepancy and Renal Transporter Polymorphisms in Japanese Patients with Breast Cancer Receiving Abemaciclib. [PDF]
Clin Pharmacol TherAbemaciclib increases serum creatinine by inhibiting renal tubular transporters rather than reducing true glomerular filtration rate, a phenomenon known as pseudo‐acute kidney injury. Creatinine–cystatin C discrepancy and genetic determinants of this elevation remain insufficiently characterized in Japanese patients.

Cystatin C as a Renal Biomarker in Infants with Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT): A Systematic Review [PDF]
DiagnosticsBackground: The evaluation of renal function in neonates is challenging due to maternal creatinine transfer, reduced muscle mass, and non-steady-state physiology.

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

Serum Cystatin C Levels Are Associated With Obesity in Adolescents Aged 14–17 Years
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 BackgroundThe association between serum cystatin C levels and obesity has not been fully explored in adolescents. This study aimed to explore the association between serum cystatin C levels and obesity in adolescents of different sexes.MethodsWe ...

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

Cystatin C and Cardiovascular Risk [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2009 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 ...

GFR Estimation After Cystatin C Reference Material Change
Kidney 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 ...
