If chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an impairment of kidney function, several uremic solutes are retained. Some of these exert toxic effects, which are called uremic toxins.

Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms that Induce Arterial Calcification by Indoxyl Sulfate and P-Cresyl Sulfate [PDF]
The protein-bound uremic toxins, indoxyl sulfate (IS) and p-cresyl sulfate (PCS), are considered to be harmful vascular toxins. Arterial media calcification, or the deposition of calcium phosphate crystals in the arteries, contributes significantly to ...

The relationship of indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate with target cardiovascular proteins in hemodialysis patients [PDF]
Protein-bound uremic toxins (Indoxyl sulfate [IS] and p-cresyl sulfate [PCS]) are both associated with cardiovascular (CV) and all-cause mortality in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Possible mechanisms have not been elucidated.

Phenyl sulfate, indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate decrease glutathione level to render cells vulnerable to oxidative stress in renal tubular cells. [PDF]
In chronic kidney disease patients, oxidative stress is generally associated with disease progression and pathogenesis of its comorbidities. Phenyl sulfate is a protein-bound uremic solute, which accumulates in chronic kidney disease patients, but little

Serum P-Cresyl Sulfate Is Associated with Peripheral Arterial Stiffness in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Arterial stiffness is a major cardiovascular risk factor in patients with hemodialysis (HD). We conducted a cross-sectional study aimed at determining the relationship between serum p-Cresyl sulfate (PCS) and peripheral arterial ...

Unambiguous Characterization of p-Cresyl Sulfate, a Protein-Bound Uremic Toxin, as Biomarker of Heart and Kidney Disease [PDF]
p-Cresyl sulfate is one of the bound uremic toxins whose level increases in the sera of patients with the severity of chronic kidney disease and is therefore used as a standard for clinical investigations.

Altered Gut Microbiota and Gut-Derived p-Cresyl Sulfate Serum Levels in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients [PDF]
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal disease. Gut microbiota-derived uremic solutes, indoxyl sulfate (IS), p-cresyl sulfate (PCS), and trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) accumulate in PD patients.

Serum P-Cresyl Sulfate Levels Correlate with Peripheral Arterial Disease in Hypertensive Patients [PDF]
Background/Objectives: p-Cresyl sulfate (PCS) is implicated in inflammation, oxidative stress and vascular dysfunction. Hypertension is a major risk factor for peripheral arterial disease (PAD), which is linked to increased mortality in patients with ...

Gamma-tocopherol vitamin E enhances the cytotoxicity of p-cresyl sulfate to renal tubular cells [PDF]
Background The protein-bound uremic toxins p-cresyl sulfate (PCS) and indoxyl sulfate (IS) are commonly found at elevated levels in patients with chronic kidney disease and can promote oxidative stress leading to the progression of renal disease. However,

Elevated p-Cresyl Sulfate Levels Are Associated with Impaired Endothelial Function in Patients Undergoing Long-Term Peritoneal Dialysis [PDF]
p-Cresyl sulfate (PCS) is associated with endothelial injury and adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, its association with endothelial function in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains unclear.
