A Comparison of KL-6 and Clara Cell Protein as Markers for Predicting Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Infants

Abstract: Objectives. To evaluate the predictive characteristics of KL-6 and CC16 for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants, either independently or in combination. Study Design. This prospective cohort study was performed from 2011 to 2013 with preterm neonates of gestational age ≤32 weeks and birth weight ≤1500 g. Serum KL-6 and CC16 levels were determined 7 and 14 days after birth. Results. Seventy-three preterm infants were studied. BPD was identified in 24 of these infants. After adjusting for potenti… Show more

“…Interstitial lung disease is mainly caused by type II lung epithelial cell injury and abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix in lung parenchyma. Similar pathology is also seen in BPD (Wang et al, 2014). It has been reported that KL-6 level in peripheral blood is closely related to the severity of BPD (Wang et al, 2014;Matsumura et al, 2017).…”

“…Similar pathology is also seen in BPD (Wang et al, 2014). It has been reported that KL-6 level in peripheral blood is closely related to the severity of BPD (Wang et al, 2014;Matsumura et al, 2017). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is required for repairing neovascularization in response to ischemic injury by preventing excessive production of superoxide (Kim et al, 2007).…”

“…They also reported that a plasma level of 199 U/mL at 1 week or 232 U/mL at 2 weeks was an excellent predictor of moderate/ severe BPD (PPV of 83% and 80%, respectively). Wang et al (20) investigated predictive characteristics of KL-6 and Clara cell protein (CC16), another peripheral blood biomarker originating from nonciliated Clara cells, for BPD in preterm infants. They found that serum KL-6 levels higher than 79.26 ng/mL at 14 days postpartum in preterm infants predict the occurrence of BPD.…”

“…However, the results are conflicting. Reports from cord blood and postnatal serum found lower levels of CC16 in patients who went on to develop BPD ( 19 , 29 ), while one study demonstrated elevated postnatal serum levels in mechanically ventilated infants and correlations with progression to BPD ( 30 ). Yet, another study of tracheal aspirates in preterm infants showed instead a correlation with gestational age as well as elevations in the setting of acute infection ( 66 ).…”

“…In that study, KL-6 levels were also correlated with measures of oxygenation, length of ventilation, and LOS. Other pediatric studies have demonstrated elevated serum KL-6 in infants with bronchiolitis ( 36 ) or BPD ( 29 , 114 ), as well as with respiratory complications in severely developmentally disabled children ( 115 ) and in pediatric interstitial lung disease ( 116 ).…”
