Myo-Inositol Oxygenase as a Novel Marker in the Diagnosis of Acute Kidney Injury

Abstract: SummaryBackground: Due to the lack of diagnostic efficiency of serum creatinine in acute kidney injury (AKI), there is a pressing need to develop novel diagnostic markers. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated myo-inositol oxygenase (MIOX), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and cystatin C in terms of their applicability in the diagnosis of AKI. Methods: We enrolled a total of 39 AKI patients and 38 healthy controls in the study. We compared the levels of serum MIOX, NGAL and cystatin C between… Show more

“…Furthermore, the specifi city of the MIOX enzyme to the kidneys was demonstrated by western blotting technique in that study. In another recent study on human subjects from our research group, serum MIOX level was detected to be higher in the patient group with increased serum creatinine at the time of diagnosis of AKI than in the healthy control group (10). In another study, in which we investigated the effect of retrograde intrarenal surgery on kidney tissue in renal stone treatment, the serum MIOX level was found to be benefi cial in showing renal damage.…”

“…This is a unique pathway for MI catabolism (7)(8)(9). Although the MIOX enzyme is one of rare organ-specifi c enzymes, particularly a renal-specifi c enzyme, the data on the role of MIOX in the diagnosis of AKI are limited (9)(10)(11).…”

“…In a previous study, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the MIOX molecule released from the proximal tubules of kidneys in showing acute kidney injury were observed as 53.8% and 81.5%, respectively. Accordingly, it was concluded that MIOX could be used as a marker of acute kidney injury [21]. In addition, when compared to creatinine, MIOX was observed to increase much earlier in case of kidney injury [21].However, a review of the literature shows no study comparing the MIOX molecule in patients that have undergone PNL and RIRS.…”

“…Recent studies further found that Miox is a kidney-specific proximal tubule protein that increased in the serum of animal with AKI or diabetic nephropathy and the plasma of patients with severe AKI patients or type 2 diabetes mellitus 25 27 . In addition, cadmium-induced toxicity in mice kidney significantly increased Miox levels in the tubular cells 28 , and the Miox concentration in the serum and urine may negatively reflect the rental function 29 . Since Miox is a highly conserved enzyme in mouse, rat, and human kidney, Miox is likely to be an ideal biomarker of AKI for early detection of kidney injury.…”
