Changes in the Conformational State of Hemoglobin in Hemodialysed Patients with Chronic Renal Failure [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the properties of internal components of erythrocytes in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) in comparison to control subjects.

Dinucleoside polyphosphates : newly detected uraemic compounds with an impact on leucocyte oxidative burst [PDF]
Background. Dinucleoside polyphosphates (NpnN) have pathophysiologic roles in cardiovascular disease and are newly detected uraemic retention solutes. They were retrieved in human plasma, tissues and cells.

The Impact of CKD on Uremic Toxins and Gut Microbiota
Numerous studies have indicated that the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is strictly associated with the accumulation of toxic metabolites in blood and other metabolic compartments.

Binding Affinity and Capacity for the Uremic Toxin Indoxyl Sulfate
Protein binding prevents uremic toxins from removal by conventional extracorporeal therapies leading to accumulation in maintenance dialysis patients. Weakening of the protein binding may enhance the dialytic elimination of these toxins.

Uremic Toxins in Organ Crosstalk
Many putative uremic toxins—like indoxyl sulfate, p-cresol sulfate, kynurenic acid, uric acid, and CMPF—are organic anions. Both inter-organ and inter-organismal communication are involved.

Prebiotic, Probiotic, and Synbiotic Supplementation in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis [PDF]
Gut dysbiosis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Restoring gut microbiota with prebiotic, probiotic, and synbiotic supplementation has emerged as a potential therapeutic intervention but has not been systematically ...

Uraemic toxins and new methods to control their accumulation : game changers for the concept of dialysis adequacy [PDF]
The current concept of an adequate dialysis based only on the dialysis process itself is rather limited. We now have considerable knowledge of uraemic toxicity and improved tools for limiting uraemic toxin accumulation. It is time to make use of these. A

A novel mathematical model of protein-bound uremic toxin kinetics during hemodialysis [PDF]
AbstractProtein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) are difficult to remove by conventional hemodialysis; a high degree of protein binding reduces the free fraction of toxins and decreases their diffusion across dialyzer membranes. Mechanistic understanding of PBUT kinetics can open new avenues to improve their dialytic removal.

Animal Models for Studying Protein-Bound Uremic Toxin Removal—A Systematic Review
Protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) are associated with the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its associated morbidity and mortality. The conventional dialysis techniques are unable to efficiently remove PBUTs due to their plasma protein binding.

Protein-Bound Uremic Toxin Profiling as a Tool to Optimize Hemodialysis
We studied various hemodialysis strategies for the removal of protein-bound solutes, which are associated with cardiovascular damage.This study included 10 patients on standard (3 x 4 h/week) high-flux hemodialysis. Blood was collected at the dialyzer inlet and outlet at several time points during a midweek session.
