Is malondialdehyde a putative uremic toxin?
Is Malondialdehyde a Putative Uremic Toxin? B.K. Kishore B.K. Kishore, MD, BCHM 75.39 ICP/UCL, avenue Hippocrate 75, B-1200 Bruxelles (Belgium) Dear Sir, References Various studies have demonstrated that the lipid per-oxidation (LP) status of chronic renal failure (CRF) patients is significantly increased, irrespective of the dialysis treatment [1–3]. While the actual cause for this increased L...
متن کاملParathyroid hormone, a uremic toxin.
Despite the innovations in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism, there are uremic patients with marked elevation in PTH levels. Uremic toxicity is in part attributable to the excess of circulating PTH. It has been known for many years that PTH may induce changes in cell calcium, a key intracellular signal required for normal cell function. The effect of PTH in dialysis patients is not...
متن کاملFibroblast Growth Factor-23—A Potential Uremic Toxin
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a circulating member of the FGF family produced mainly by the osteocytes and osteoblasts that can act as a hormone. The main action of FGF23 is to lower phosphatemia via the reduction of urinary phosphate reabsorption and the decrease of 1,25(OH)₂-D generation in the kidney. In the course of chronic kidney disease (CKD), plasma FGF23 concentration rises ea...
متن کاملPdl1 Is a Putative Lipase that Enhances Photorhabdus Toxin Complex Secretion
The Toxin Complex (TC) is a large multi-subunit toxin first characterized in the insect pathogens Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus, but now seen in a range of pathogens, including those of humans. These complexes comprise three protein subunits, A, B and C which in the Xenorhabdus toxin are found in a 4:1:1 stoichiometry. Some TCs have been demonstrated to exhibit oral toxicity to insects and have ...
متن کاملFunctional Analysis of a Putative Dothistromin Toxin MFS Transporter Gene
Dothistromin is a non-host selective toxin produced by the pine needle pathogen Dothistroma septosporum. Dothistromin is not required for pathogenicity, but may have a role in competition and niche protection. To determine how D. septosporum tolerates its own toxin, a putative dothistromin transporter, dotC, was investigated. Studies with mutants lacking a functional dotC gene, overproducing do...
