Cystatin C Levels, Status of Oxidant-Antioxidant and Inflammation in Hemodialysis Patients

Öz

Objective: Cystatin C is considered an important marker for the detection of renal dysfunction. It was aimed to determine cystatin C levels, status of oxidant-antioxidant and inflammation in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: The study groups consisted of 20 HD patients and 20 healthy controls. Blood samples were obtained from the control group and from the HD group before hemodialysis. Serum cystatin C, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), total oxidative state (TOS), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6) interleukin 18 (IL-18) levels were detected by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), C-reactive protein (CRP) and some biochemical parameters were analyzed by autoanalyser. Results: Cystatin C, TOS, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-18 and CRP levels of the HD group were significantly higher than the control group. Conclusion: As a result; oxidative stress and inflammation were increased in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis. New strategies and new studies are needed to reduce the increase in oxidative stress and inflammation in HD patients.

Hemodializ Hastalarında Sistatin C Düzeyleri, Oksidan-Antioksidan ve İnflamasyon Durumu

Öz

Amaç: Sistatin C, böbrek fonksiyon bozukluğunun saptanması için önemli bir belirteç olarak kabul edilir. Hemodiyaliz (HD) hastalarında sistatin C düzeylerinin, oksidan-antioksidan ve inflamasyon durumunun belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Yöntem: Çalışma grupları 20 HD hastası ve 20 sağlıklı kontrolden oluşturuldu. Hemodiyaliz öncesi kontrol grubundan ve HD grubundan kan örnekleri alındı. Serum sistatin C, total antioksidan kapasite (TAC), total oksidatif durum (TOS), tümör nekroz faktör alfa (TNF-α), interlökin 6 (IL-6), interlökin 18 (IL-18) seviyeleri ELISA ile C- reaktif protein (CRP) ve bazı biyokimyasal parametreler ise otoanalizörde analiz edildi. Bulgular: HD grubunun sistatin C, TOS, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-18 ve CRP düzeyleri kontrol grubuna göre anlamlı derecede yüksekti. Sonuç: Sonuç olarak; hemodiyaliz uygulanan kronik böbrek yetmezliği olan hastalarda oksidatif stres ve inflamasyon artmıştır. Hemodiyaliz hastalarında oksidatif stres ve inflamasyonu azaltmak için yeni stratejilere ve yeni çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
