Abstract:
Cystatin C (Cys C) is used to evaluate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), renal function and thus reflects changes in endogenous marker. Cys C is not affected by gender, muscle mass, malignancy and its production rate is usually constant, making it one of ideal markes of GFR. This article focuses on clinical application and research of Cys C in a variety of renal diseases, especially in renal dysfunction at an early stage of clinical significance.
