MXene: An efficient hemoperfusion sorbent for the removal of uremic toxins

open access: yesJournal of Materiomics, 2023
MXene, a family of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides and nitrides have attracted extensive interests for many biochemical applications, including tumour elimination, biosensors, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Uremic Toxins in the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease and Cardiovascular Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive loss of renal function. The gradual decline in kidney function leads to an accumulation of toxins normally cleared by the kidneys, resulting in uremia. Uremic toxins are classified into three categories: free

Protein-bound uremic toxins impaired mitochondrial dynamics and functions. [PDF]

open access: yesOncotarget, 2017
Protein-bound uremic toxins, indoxyl sulfate and p-cresol sulfate, increase oxidative stress and adversely affect chronic kidney disease progression and cardiovascular complications. In this study, we examined whether mitochondria are the target of indoxyl sulfate and p-cresol sulfate intoxication in vivo and in vitro. The kidneys of 10-week-old male B-

Uremic Vascular Calcification: The Pathogenic Roles and Gastrointestinal Decontamination of Uremic Toxins

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Uremic vascular calcification (VC) commonly occurs during advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) and significantly increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

Enhanced Removal of Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins Using Displacers: Road to Success? [PDF]

open access: yesClin J Am Soc Nephrol, 2019
Patients on maintenance dialysis suffer a substantial mortality risk. Traditionally, this increased mortality is attributed to enhanced cardiovascular damage, in itself mostly linked to hastened calcification and vascular stiffness related to inflammation.

The Microbiome and Uremic Solutes

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Uremic retention solutes, especially the protein-bound compounds, are toxic metabolites, difficult to eliminate with progressive renal functional decline.

Effects of an SGLT Inhibitor on the Production, Toxicity, and Elimination of Gut-Derived Uremic Toxins: A Call for Additional Evidence

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Sodium–glucose cotransporter (SGLT) inhibitors are a class of oral hypoglycemic agents, which, in recent years, have been shown to improve renal and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetic and non-diabetic chronic kidney disease.

Loop diuretics in anuric hemodialysis patients for the clearance of protein-bound uremic toxins. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Kidney J
ABSTRACT Background In chronic kidney disease, the accumulation of protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs), such as hippuric acid (HA), p-cresyl sulfate (PCS) and indoxyl sulfate (IS), contributes to systemic toxicity and organ dysfunction.

Uremic Toxins and Blood Purification: A Review of Current Evidence and Future Perspectives

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Accumulation of uremic toxins represents one of the major contributors to the rapid progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in patients with end-stage renal disease that are undergoing dialysis treatment.
