Parameter
| Biomarker | Cys-C | Full name | Cystatin C | Molecular Type | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Molecular Formula | Molecular Weight | Core Functional Dimensions | Renal function assessment, disease staging | ||
| Disease | Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) | Disease Subtypes | / | ||
| Organ | Kidney | Test Sample / Technology Platform | Blood ( immunoturbidimetry ) | ||
| Pathobiological Mechanisms | All nucleated cells are constantly generated and freely pass through glomerular filtration, reflecting changes in GFR. | ||||
| Clinical Availability Status | Clinical routine application | ||||
| Notes and Dynamics | It is more sensitive than serum creatinine, but it still cannot meet the needs of CKD Early diagnosis. It is often used in combination with creatinine for eGFR estimation. | ||||
