Repopulating ability of mouse bone marrow stem cells, treated with pre-dialysis, post-dialysis and control sera was assessed by colony forming units (CFU-S). Significant lower colony counts were observed in pre-dialysis group as compared to control group. There was an improvement in the colony counts when the cells were treated with post-dialysis sera. The study suggests the presence of inhibitor/s of CFU-S in the uraemic sera which is/are partially removed by haemodialysis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
