Abstract:   (1068 Views)
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) occurs if the kidneys suddenly lose their ability to remove waste products. When the kidneys lose their ability to filter, dangerous levels of waste products can accumulate, which can upset the chemical composition of the blood and urine. Chemotherapy is one of the methods used to treat or temporarily reduce cancer by using certain medications. The main task of this treatment is to kill cancer cells without seriously damaging the surrounding tissues. However, this type of treatment also has destructive effects on healthy cells and tissues in the body. Researchers studying cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy found that people undergoing this type of treatment may develop serious kidney problems and be forced to use treatments such as dialysis and kidney transplants. Research showed that people with more severe cancers and advanced tumors are more likely to have acute kidney injury than those with early-stage cancer. AKI biomarkers can be selected from the patient's serum, urine, or body imaging components. Various studies showed that urine is a source of the best markers in AKI. Biomarkers in plasma and urine, such as N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase, Cystatin-C, β2-microglobulin , Cysteine-Rich Protein, Osteopontin, Fetuin-A, Kidney Injury Molecule-1, Liver-type fatty acid-binding protein, Netrin-1, Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and interleukin-18 are effective tools for early detection of AKI. In this review study, an attempt was made to collect biomarkers related to AKI disease.
