Uremic Toxins Tests of Kidney Disease

1. BUN -- small molecule toxins

It is an index of glomerular filtration function and dialysis sufficiency.

2. CR -- small molecule toxins

It is a more specific index than GFR.

3. UA -- small molecule toxins

The level of UA rises in cases of decreased kidney function and gout, etc.

4. BMG -- middle molecule toxins

The BMG level become elevated in cases of reduced kidney function and tumor. Amyloidosis can be caused.

5. Cyc C -- middle molecule toxins

It is an ideal index of endogenic glomerular filtration function, which is especially commonly used in children and dialysis patients. Amyloidosis can be caused.

6. RBP -- toxins combined with protein

In case of decreased glomeurlar filtration function, the levels of RBP will become elevated earlier than creatinine. The RBP levels become decreased in both liver diseases and malnutrition.

7. HCY -- toxins combined with protein

An independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. An elevated level of HCY can lead to cardiovascular disease.

8. IL-6 -- middle molecule toxins

An important index of acute inflammation and micro-inflammation. It is associated with many complications of chronic kidney disease, such as cardiovascular complications, malnutrition, Uremic anemia, etc.

9. PTH -- middle molecule toxins


Elevated levels of PTH can be detected in patients with Renal Osteodystrophy.
