Patterns of Dickkopf-3 Serum and Urine Levels at Different Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease
Dickkopf 3 (Dkk3) is a WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway regulator secreted by tubular epithelial cells upon the influence of different stressors. Recently Dkk3 was described as a biomarker of tubular cell injury and a tool that may estimate the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. The da...

description | Dickkopf 3 (Dkk3) is a WNT/β-catenin signaling pathway regulator secreted by tubular epithelial cells upon the influence of different stressors. Recently Dkk3 was described as a biomarker of tubular cell injury and a tool that may estimate the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. The data about Dkk3 concentrations at particular stages of CKD are lacking. The aim of this study was to measure serum and urine Dkk3 levels in patients with different ‘renal status’ and evaluate its role as a biomarker of renal damage. One hundred individuals, aged between 24 and 85 years (mean 53.1 ± 17.1), were enrolled in the study. Five groups of 20 subjects each were recruited based on their kidney function. Serum and urine Dkk3 levels were measured by ELISA. The highest median urinary Dkk3 normalized to urinary creatinine was found in patients with established CKD (7051 pg/mg). It was two times higher in renal transplant patients (5705 pg/mg) than in healthy individuals (2654 pg/mg) and the glomerulonephritis group (2470 pg/mg). Urinary Dkk3 was associated with serum creatinine in participants with established CKD and following transplantation. Our results confirm the potential role of Dkk3 as a biomarker of an ongoing renal injury. |
