Evaluation of Renal Functions in Preterm Infants With Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Abstract: Preterm infants with RDS had increased levels of both GST-π and B2-MG levels on PN day 30, suggesting subclinical tubular dysfunction, probably secondary to hypoxic stress.

“…The urinary B2M concentrations in our study were like those observed in healthy adults [ 66 ], but they were significantly lower than in preterm neonates [ 26 , 27 ], which is consistent with the fact that increasing prematurity is associated with increased glomerular permeability and decreased proximal tubular protein reabsorption [ 28 ]. Both situations lead to lower urinary B2M concentration in the full-term neonates assessed in our study when compared to preterm children.…”

“…The same seems to apply to B2M [67]. Increased serum B2M concentrations have recently been associated with respiratory distress syndrome when compared with healthy control newborns, questioning the feasibility of B2M to serve as a marker of neonatal GFR [68]. Questions have been posed as to whether CysC truly does not cross the placenta [23].…”

“…Early studies confirmed that the urinary biomarker B2M was significantly higher in perinatal asphyxiated neonates than in controls when oliguria was present, 33 and oliguria in the perinatal period is a sensitive indicator of infants at risk for long‐term neurologic deficits 34 . Evidence also supported subclinical tubular dysfunction, probably secondary to hypoxic stress, combined with high levels of B2M in preterm infants 35 . Not surprisingly, experimental data suggested that cardiomyocytes express and secrete elevated levels of B2M in response to ischemic damage, which could activate fibroblasts in a paracrine manner associated with therapeutic targets relevant for cardiac repair 36 .…”
