: Interstitial fibrosis/tubular atrophy in kidney transplantation is an unspecific lesion induced by immune and non-immune factors, which determines the progression of chronic kidney disease. Hydroxyproline is an imino acid that is part of the molecule of collagen. The aim of this study was to assess hydroxyproline in urine microvesicles as a marker of fibrosis in the renal transplant patient.

Valproic acid (VPA) is a well-known and increasingly documented antiepileptic drug that has been widely used in the treatment of epilepsy and/or epilepsy-related disorders. Prolonged clinical use of VPA has been reported to cause side effects such as nephrotoxicity. Edaravone (EDA) is a powerful free radical scavenger.

Article Synopsis
- - Glyoxylate, a toxic byproduct of metabolism, is rapidly converted into oxalate, necessitating effective detoxification systems in various cell compartments, with key enzymes AGT and GRHPR involved in this process.
- - Mutations in genes encoding AGT and GRHPR lead to primary hyperoxaluria types 1 and 2, respectively, while a defect in the HOGA1 enzyme is associated with type 3, all resulting in serious kidney issues such as nephrocalcinosis and potential kidney failure.
- - Recent advancements in therapies, particularly RNAi-based treatments (lumasiran and nedosiran), are improving outcomes for primary hyperoxaluria, with nedosiran targeting all

Urinary collagen peptides, the breakdown products of endogenous collagen, have been used as biomarkers for various diseases. These non-invasive biomarkers are easily measured via mass spectrometry, aiding in diagnostics and therapy effectiveness. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of consuming collagen-containing meat on collagen peptide composition in human blood and urine.
