Impact of Growth Hormone on Cystatin C [PDF]

open access: yesNephron Extra, 2013
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Cystatin C (CysC) is an alternative marker to creatinine for estimation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Hormones such as thyroid hormones and glucocorticoids are known to have an impact on CysC.

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Cadmium exposure, epigenetic modifications, and serum cystatin C: insights into mediated pathways and mortality risks in U.S. adults

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics
Background Cadmium exposure has been linked to elevated cystatin C levels, disruptions in epigenetic patterns, and increased mortality risk. However, the role of epigenetic modifications in the relationship between cadmium and cystatin C remains poorly ...

Cystatin C versus Creatinine in Renovascular Disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2002
Renovascular disease (RVD) is emerging as a common and frequently unsuspected cause of chronic renal failure and end-stage renal disease (1); moreover, it is frequently associated with renovascular hypertension, which generally carries a worse cardiovascular prognosis than other hypertensive conditions (2)(3).

Cystatin C: A prognostic marker after myocardial infarction in patients without chronic kidney disease

open access: yesJournal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2016
Aims: Cystatin C is an endogenous marker of renal function. It is a well established better marker of glomerular filtration rate than serum creatinine. There is also evidence that cystatin C is associated with atherosclerotic disease.

Early Trends in Cystatin C and Outcomes in Patients with Cirrhosis and Acute Kidney Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and severe complication in patients with cirrhosis. Progression of AKI to a higher stage associates with increased mortality.

Folding-related Dimerization of Human Cystatin C [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
With the aim to improve our understanding of the structural basis for protein self-association and aggregation, in particular in relationship to protein refolding and amyloid formation, folding-related processes for human cystatin C have been studied. Using NMR spectroscopy together with chromatographic and electrophoretic methods, a self-association ...

Clinical Relevance and Diagnostic Utility of Standard Serum Biomarkers in Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease: A Single‐Center Observational Study From Bangladesh

open access: yesiLABMED, EarlyView.
This study evaluated conventional and emerging biochemical markers for assessing chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression in Bangladeshi patients elevated serum uric acid and parathyroid hormone levels, along with reduced eGFR, vitamin D, and albumin levels, were significantly associated with CKD, highlighting their potential as cost‐effective early ...

Renal function impairment in children with intestinal failure receiving parenteral nutrition: A descriptive cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Children with intestinal failure are at risk for kidney dysfunction; however, the contributing factors are not well established. We aimed to describe risk factors associated with glomerular and tubular renal dysfunction in children with intestinal failure.

Cystatin C as a Biomarker for Identifying High-Risk Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome: An Observational Study

open access: yesClinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis
Background Cystatin C is a cysteine protease inhibitor, synthesized by nucleated cells, and released into various body fluids. Lots of studies have reported an association between cystatin C and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
