Toxin in blood of kidney disease patients could contribute to stroke risk, study suggests
Scientists have revealed that a toxin found in the blood of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) damages the body’s protective blood–brain barrier, likely contributing to the risk of stroke.

Over 7M people in the UK are estimated to live with #CKD. Researchers at #COIRM found a #gut #microbiome toxin in #CKD patients, p-cresol sulfate, damages the blood-brain barrier risking stroke & cognitive decline, but promising drugs may block this. More here: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Huge thank you to David Vauzour at UEA for quantifying pCS in patient samples, and colleagues from The William Harvey Research Institute for providing us with patient samples.
Systems-level microbiome research only works when it's collaborative.
Systems-level microbiome research only works when it's collaborative.
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are more prone to brain bleeds and stroke than the general population. We think that use of EGFR inhibitors (already used clinically) in these patients could protect them from some of the neuro effects of CKD.
