Urine NGAL and KIM-1: tubular injury markers in acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivors. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • * The study included 86 ALL survivors and 53 healthy controls, measuring levels of kidney injury molecules (KIM-1 and NGAL) using ELISA kits.
  • * Results showed significantly higher levels of uNGAL and uKIM-1 in ALL survivors, especially in females, with some patients exhibiting decreased kidney function, but cumulative doses of certain drugs did not correlate with these urinary markers.

Article Abstract

Introduction: Nephrotoxicity is a potential adverse effect of anticancer treatment in childhood. Cytostatics, abdominal radiotherapy, total body irradiation (TBI) and some agents used in supportive care may induce acute kidney injury (AKI) or lead to chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis whether urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) are increased in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors.

Method: The study cohort consisted of 86 patients (42 females) previously treated for ALL. The median time after cessation of treatment was 6.55 (IQR: 1.96-9.93) years and median age at the time of study: 12 (IQR: 6.76-16.00). The control group included 53 healthy peers. Immunoenzymatic ELISA commercial kits were used to measure urine KIM-1 and NGAL levels.

Results: The median levels of urine uNGAL (p < 0.05), uNGAL/creatinine (cr.) ratio (p < 0.0001) and uKIM-1/creatinine ratio (p < 0.0001) were significantly higher in ALL survivors in comparison with healthy controls. Female patients had significantly higher levels of NGAL and NGAL/cr. than males (mean 8.42 ± 7.1 vs. 4.59 ± 4.5 ng/mL and 86.57 ± 77 vs. 37.7 ± 37 ng/mg, respectively; p < 0.01). Of all the study participants, 11 (13%) presented eGFR below 90 mL/min/1.73 m. The NGAL/cr. ratio seemed to be the best predictor of decreased eGFR (AUC = 0.65). The cumulative dose of methotrexate and cyclophosphamide did not predict the values of the urine NGAL, NGAL/cr., KIM-1/cr. and eGFR. Five years after the end of treatment, the patients had higher levels of uKIM-1 (1.02 ± 0.8 vs. 0.62 ± 0.6 ng/mL, p < 0.01), uNGAL (7.9 ± 6.7 vs. 4.6 ± 5 ng/mL, p < 0.01) and lower eGFR (114 ± 29 vs. 134 ± 35 mL/min/1.73 m, p < 0.01) in comparison with ALL survivors with the observation period of less than 5 years.

Conclusion: We demonstrated that ALL survivors have higher levels of urine NGAL, NGAL/cr. and uKIM-1/cr. ratio as compared to the control group. Further long-term follow-up studies are necessary to assess the significance of the NGAL and KIM-1 and their relationship to kidney damage after anticancer treatment in childhood.
