UNLABELLED: Cystatin C, a cysteine protease inhibitor, is used as a biomarker of renal function. It offers several advantages compared to creatinine, and formulas for the estimation of the glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C have been developed. Recently, several proteoforms of cystatin C have been discovered, including an intact protein with a hydroxylated proline at the N-terminus, and N-terminal truncated forms. There is little knowledge about the biological significance of these proteoforms.
METHODS: Cross-sectional study of patients with different stages of chronic renal disease (pre-dialysis n = 53; hemodialysis n = 51, renal transplant n = 53). Measurement of cystatin C proteoforms by MALDI-TOF MS, assessment of medicine prescription using the first two levels of the Anatomical Therapeutic chemical system from patients' records.
RESULTS: Patients receiving hemodialysis had the highest cystatin C concentrations, followed by pre-dialysis patients and patients with a renal transplant. In all groups, the most common proteoforms were native cystatin C and CysC 3Pro-OH while the truncated forms made up 28%. The distribution of the different proteoforms was largely independent of renal function and total cystatin C. However, the use of corticosteroids (ATC-L02) and immunosuppressants (ATC-H04) considerably impacted the distribution of proteoforms.
CONCLUSION: The different proteoforms of cystatin C increased proportionally with total cystatin C in patients with chronic kidney disease. Prescription of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants had a significant effect on the distribution of proteoforms. The biological significance of these proteoforms remains to be determined.
