Urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a marker of active renal vasculitis.
BACKGROUND Macrophage infiltration and cytokine production are important in the pathogenesis of crescentic glomerulonephritis in anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether urinary levels of chemokines, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and fractalkine, were useful tools for non-invasive assessment of renal vasculiti...
متن کاملUrinary Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1) in Renal Transplant Recipients: Implications in Proteinuric Patients
Background: After the first year of transplantation chronic allograft nephropathy is the most important cause of renal graft loss and hypertension and proteinuria occur commonly. In native nephropathies, proteinuria and progression to renal failure are linked and renal tubulo-interstitial fibrosis determines prognosis. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a powerful chemokine promoting...
متن کاملUrine Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1(UMCP-1) as a Biomarker of Renal Involvement in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Objective(s)Lupus nephritis (LN) is frequently associated with a poor long-term prognosis. Renal biopsy is the diagnostic method of choice in this condition. Urine biomarkers have been mentioned in the diagnosis of LN. The study,s purpose was to evaluate the performance of urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein 1(UMCP-1) as a biomarker of renal involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus.Mate...
متن کاملMonocyte Chemoattractant Protein 1 is a Prognostic Marker in ANCA-Associated Small Vessel Vasculitis
BACKGROUND The (anti neutrophil cytoplasmatic autoantibody ANCA), associated small vessel vasculitides (ASVV) are relapsing-remitting inflammatory disorders, involving various organs, such as the kidneys. (Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 MCP-1) has been shown to be locally up regulated in glomerulonephritis and recent studies have pointed out MCP-1 as a promising marker of renal inflammation...
