ABSTRACT Background In sepsis survivors aged ≥ 90 years, physiological reserve defines recovery. We previously identified liver dysfunction as protective (‘liver paradox’) and rehabilitation as a trigger for mental decline. Here, we hypothesised a ‘metabolic dichotomy’, where chronic kidney disease (CKD) damages the brain by accumulating neurotoxins ...

Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins: New Insight from Clinical Studies
The uremic syndrome is attributed to the progressive retention of a large number of compounds which, under normal conditions, are excreted by healthy kidneys. The compounds are called uremic toxins when they interact negatively with biological functions.

Alterations in gut‐derived uremic toxins before the onset of azotemic chronic kidney disease in cats
Background Although gut‐derived uremic toxins are increased in azotemic chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats and implicated in disease progression, it remains unclear if augmented formation or retention of these toxins is associated with the development ...

Indoxyl Sulfate Suppresses Hpdlc Osteogenesis Through Ferroptosis
Aim or purpose: Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLCs) play pivotal roles in periodontal tissue repair and bone regeneration. This study investigated the inhibitory effects and underlying mechanisms of indoxyl sulfate (IS), a uremic toxin, on the
