Early Markers of Tubulointerstitial Fibrosis in Children With Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome: Preliminary Report.

Medicine (Baltimore)

October 2015

From the Department of Pediatric Nephrology, Medical University of Lublin (BB, MZ, HB, PS, AWP); and Department of Paediatric Endocrinology and Diabetology with Endocrine-Metabolic Laboratory, Lublin, Poland (BW).

Unlabelled: Tubulointerstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). They are also major determinants in chronic kidney disease development and progression in patients with primary renal diseases characterized by persistent or recurrent proteinuria. The purpose of the study was to assess urinary excretion of alpha-glutathione S-transferase (alpha-GST), pi-glutathione S-transferase (pi-GST), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), and serum NGAL level in children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS).
