Non-Invasive Biomarkers for Diagnosis, Risk Prediction, and Therapy Guidance of Glomerular Kidney Diseases: A Comprehensive Review.
International Journal of Molecular Sciences 2024 March 21
Effective management of glomerular kidney disease, one of the main categories of chronic kidney disease (CKD), requires accurate diagnosis, prognosis of progression, assessment of therapeutic efficacy, and, ideally, prediction of drug response. Multiple biomarkers and algorithms for the assessment of specific aspects of glomerular diseases have been reported in the literature. Though, the vast majority of these have not been implemented in clinical practice or are not available on a global scale due to limited access, missing medical infrastructure, or economical as well as political reasons. The aim of this review is to compile all currently available information on the diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive biomarkers currently available for the management of glomerular diseases, and provide guidance on the application of these biomarkers. As a result of the compiled evidence for the different biomarkers available, we present a decision tree for a non-invasive, biomarker-guided diagnostic path. The data currently available demonstrate that for the large majority of patients with glomerular diseases, valid biomarkers are available. However, despite the obvious disadvantages of kidney biopsy, being invasive and not applicable for monitoring, especially in the context of rare CKD etiologies, kidney biopsy still cannot be replaced by non-invasive strategies.
