Growth differentiation factor 15 is decreased by kidney transplantation
Abstract
Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) is markedly increased in end-stage kidney disease and has been related to increased mortality in patients on dialysis. We hypothesized that kidney transplantation would decrease both GDF15 and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and that GDF-15 decrease relates to post-kidney transplantation allograft function. End-stage kidney disease patients on dialysis awaiting a living donor kidney...
