Targeting Inflammation to Slow CKD Progression- Role of Gut Microbiome Based Therapy
Author(s): Emmanuel Anteyi*, Natarajan Ranganathan and Usha Vyas
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a worldwide public health problem associated with high morbidity, mortality, and socioeconomic burden. Despite
recent advances in pathogenesis and effective Standard of Care (SOC) therapy, the incidence of end stage renal disease remains high, attributed
to the complex and diverse pathophysiological pathways in progression of CKD. Among the many pathogenetic pathways, inflammation plays
the most central role in disease progression and related complications. Current SOC treatment to slow CKD progression has not adequately
addressed these complex processes as a result of persistence of low-grade inflammation occurring at all stages of CKD. Previous attempts
to address the inflammatory pathway with specific anti-inflammatory agents were, in certain cases discontinued for reasons ranging from drug
safety to efficacy concerns, and bus.. Read More»
