Urinary Innate-Immunity Biomarkers and Serum Vitamin D in Children with CAKUT: sTLR4 as a Potential Predictor of Future Urinary Tract Infection
2026-06-16
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Children with congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are predisposed to develop urinary tract infections (UTIs). Urinary heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) and soluble Toll-like receptor 4 (sTLR4) have emerged as markers of urinary tract inflammation, while serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] has been implicated in mucosal host defense. However, their combin...
