Cystatin C as Biomarker for the Evaluation of Renal Outcome in AL Amyloidosis
ABSTRACT Cystatin C (CysC) has emerged as a novel and potentially more reliable biomarker for the estimation of glomerular filtration in the general population in patients with various conditions. In AL amyloidosis, the current renal staging system and renal response criteria are based on proteinuria and creatinine‐based eGFR.

Abstract Aims The aim of this study was to determine if head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients treated with cisplatin chemoradiotherapy and short hydration (SH) experience less dose‐limiting toxicity (DLT) and receive more cisplatin than those with medium hydration (MH) or long hydration (LH).

Cystatin C and Aging Success [PDF]
To our knowledge, the effect of kidney function on successful aging has not been examined.We evaluated the relationship between cystatin C and aging success during a 6-year follow-up in the Cardiovascular Health Study, a community-based cohort of older adults (aged >or= 65 years). Successful aging was defined as remaining free of cardiovascular disease,

Aims The aim of this phase 1 trial was to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of balcinrenone (previously AZD9977) in participants with severe renal impairment vs. those with normal renal function. Methods Participants with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) not on dialysis were ...

Abstract Aim Heart transplantation (HT) is frequently complicated by chronic kidney disease, of which tacrolimus‐related nephrotoxicity is an important cause. In kidney and liver transplant recipients, fast tacrolimus metabolism (defined as a low concentration‐to‐dose [C0/D] ratio), negatively affects kidney function.

Recent findings indicate that mitochondria‐associated membranes (MAMs), where the endoplasmic reticulum directly contacts the mitochondria, are a novel microdomain essential for cellular homeostasis, including proteostasis. We summarize the disruption of protein homeostasis and MAM alteration in neurodegenerative diseases, then discuss challenges and ...

Cystatins — Inhibitors of Cysteine Proteinases [PDF]
The cystatin superfamily of proteins, derived from a common ancestor, is comprised of a diverse group of potent cysteine proteinase inhibitors and antibacterial/viral agents grouped into several families. This review concentrates on family 2 cystatins, namely, the human salivary cystatins and cystatin C.

Abstract RBN‐3143 is an inhibitor of PARP14 in development for inflammatory diseases. Multiple assessments were conducted to evaluate the clinical pharmacology properties of RBN‐3134. A randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study assigned healthy volunteers (HVs) to single ascending doses (SADs) (25‐1000 mg) or multiple ascending doses (MADs ...

The disulphide bridges of human cystatin C (γ‐trace) and chicken cystatin
Human cystatin C, a powerful physiological protein inhibitor of cathepsins B, H and L, contains two disulphide bridges, at least one of which is essential to its inhibitory activity. The positions of these bridges in the single polypeptide chain of the protein have been determined by diagonal paper electrophoresis. The cysteine residues at positions 73
