Assessment of kidney function in adults [PDF]
Medicine, 2007 Abstract Kidney function is typically assessed by measuring the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and many approaches have been used. Accuracy demands complex techniques involving the use of exogenous filtration markers (e.g. inulin, iohexol, 51 Cr-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid). For most clinical purposes accuracy is sacrificed for practicality and

Epigenome-wide association studies identify DNA methylation associated with kidney function
Nature Communications, 2017 Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined by reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Previous genetic studies have implicated regulatory mechanisms contributing to CKD.

Proximal Tubular Secretory Clearance: A Neglected Partner of Kidney Function.
American Society of Nephrology. Clinical Journal, 2018 The secretion of small molecules by the proximal tubules of the kidneys represents a vital homeostatic function for rapidly clearing endogenous solutes and medications from the circulation. After filtration at the glomerulus, renal blood flow is directed

Serum uromodulin—a marker of kidney function and renal parenchymal integrity
Nephrology, Dialysis and Transplantation, 2017 Background An ELISA to analyse uromodulin in human serum (sUmod) was developed, validated and tested for clinical applications. Methods We assessed sUmod, a very stable antigen, in controls, patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 1–5, persons ...
