CST3 and acute kidney injury: Cisplatin increased mouse kidney-to-body weight ratio and the plasma or urinary levels of predictive biomarkers of AKI, including creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, microalbumin, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and cystatin C. Histological analysis and dUTP nick end labeling of kidney sections indicated tubular injury and renal apoptosis, respectively in cisplatin-treated mice.
