Urinary cell cycle arrest biomarkers TIMP-2 and IGFBP7 for the assessment of acute kidney injury in dogs with pyometra

Braz, Larissa A. do N. · Maia, Suellen R. · Gasser, Beatriz · Cruz, Nathan da R. N. · y 5 más

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and may develop secondary to systemic inflammatory conditions. Conventional biomarkers, such as serum creatinine and urinary gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), often fail to detect early renal injury. Cell cycle arrest biomarkers, including t...
