Abstract. Serum creatinine, a surrogate for both renal function and homocysteine generation, is an important determinant of fasting plasma total homocysteine levels in stable renal transplant recipients. In this study, it is hypothesized that among stable renal transplant recipients with normal creatinine levels (i.e., ≤ 1.5 mg/dl), serum cystatin C, a more sensitive indicator of GFR, would better predict fasting total homocysteine levels compared with serum creatinine. Fasting plasma total homocysteine, folate, vitamin B12, and pyridoxal 5′-phosphate levels, along with serum cystatin C, creatinine, and albumin levels, were determined in 28 consecutive renal transplant recipients (mean age 47 ± 14 yr; 60.7% men) with stable allograft function, whose serum creatinine was ≤1.5 mg/dl. General linear modeling with analysis of covariance revealed that serum cystatin C was independently predictive (partial R = 0.494; P = 0.023) of fasting total homocysteine levels after adjustment for age, gender, vitamin status, albumin, and creatinine levels. In contrast, creatinine levels were not predictive of fasting total homocysteine levels in this model (P = 0.110) or an identical model that excluded cystatin C (P = 0.131). Serum cystatin C levels may reflect subtle decreases in renal function that independently predict fasting total homocysteine levels among stable renal transplant recipients with a normal serum creatinine.

The Gold standard for the evaluation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is inulin clearance, but in widespread use is prevented by several technical difficulties. The most commonly used marker for GFR is serum creatinine alone or in conjunction with 24 hoururine collection for determination of creatinine clearance, but these marker have several limitation include following: influence of age,sex, muscle mass on endogenous creatinine production, dietary intake and the difficulties of 24 hour urine collection. Fifty six patientwith chronic renal failure and 53 control had analyze for serum creatinin, creatinine clearance and serum cystatin C. The chronic renalfailure patient aged range from (64 + 14.54) year and the control group aged range from (62.5+ 17.5) year. The proposed of this studywas to compare cystatin C with another parameter for renal function test. The result showed that in control group serum creatinineand creatinine clearance had influence with age, sex and body mass index, but serum cystatin C was not. The normal value of cystatinC was (0.85 + 0.13) mg/dL In chronic renal failure group there were significant correlation between level of cystatin C with creatininclearance (p = 0.000, r = 0.69). The level of cystatin C increase higher than serum creatinine in patient with low clearance creatinine.In control group we were determined low creatinine clearance in patient with normal serum creatinine and cystatin C.
