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

Derivation and elimination of uremic toxins from kidney-gut axis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Uremic toxins are chemicals, organic or inorganic, that accumulate in the body fluids of individuals with acute or chronic kidney disease and impaired renal function.

The Interplay between Uremic Toxins and Albumin, Membrane Transporters and Drug Interaction

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Uremic toxins are a heterogeneous group of molecules that accumulate in the body due to the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). These toxins are associated with kidney dysfunction and the development of comorbidities in patients with CKD, being ...

Uremic Toxins and the Lung Alveolar Capillary Barrier: A Narrative Review [PDF]

open access: yesToxins
Introduction: Uremic toxins have been shown to cause adverse pulmonary effects by inducing endothelial and epithelial dysfunction, disrupting the alveolar-capillary barrier, and increasing inflammation and oxidative stress.

Food-Derived Uremic Toxins in Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesToxins, 2023
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a higher cardiovascular risk compared to the average population, and this is partially due to the plasma accumulation of solutes known as uremic toxins.

How do Uremic Toxins Affect the Endothelium?

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Uremic toxins can induce endothelial dysfunction in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Indeed, the structure of the endothelial monolayer is damaged in CKD, and studies have shown that the uremic toxins contribute to the loss of cell–cell ...

Uremic Toxins in Organ Crosstalk [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
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.

Uremic Toxins: An Alarming Danger Concerning the Cardiovascular System

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The kidneys and heart share functions with the common goal of maintaining homeostasis. When kidney injury occurs, many compounds, the so-called “uremic retention solutes” or “uremic toxins,” accumulate in the circulation targeting other tissues.

The Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor-Activating Effect of Uremic Toxins from Tryptophan Metabolism: A New Concept to Understand Cardiovascular Complications of Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesToxins, 2014
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases and suffer from accelerated atherosclerosis. CKD patients are permanently exposed to uremic toxins, making them good candidates as pathogenic agents.

Protein-bound uremic toxins as therapeutic targets for cardiovascular, kidney, and metabolic disorders [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome is a systemic clinical condition characterized by pathological and physiological interactions among metabolic abnormalities, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular diseases, leading to multi-organ ...
