Popis: | Dialysis is an invasive treatment in chronic kidney failure associated with increased activation of inflammatory system. The aim of this study was to examine the difference between concentrations of classic inflammatory marker (C-reactive protein, CRP) and new markers from adipokine family (leptin and resistin) in patients on dialysis and with metabolic syndrome. CRP is increased in dialyzed patients and that probably indicates inflammatory response in dialysis. Since leptin and resistin concentrations are not increased in dialyzed patient, we hypothesize that those markers share some other regulatory mechanisms. |
