Correlation of serum galectin-3 level with renal volume and function in adult polycystic kidney disease

ConclusionsIn our study, we showed that renal impairment is an important determinant of Gal-3, and there is no correlation of Gal-3 and TKV in ADPKD. As a result, there is an urgent clinical need for new biomarkers to identify individuals with the chance of treatment in the early stage among ADPKD patients.
