“…A common characteristic of CKD is the presence of chronic morphological and functional disorders in the kidneys, leading to renal failure. The prevalence of CKD among the world’s population currently ranges from 11% to 13% [ 1 , 2 ]. The progressive course of CKD is associated with a steady decline in the glomerular filtration rate to ESRD.…”

“…The number of people with ESRD in the United States alone exceeded 785,000 by the end of 2018 [ 4 ], and there is a steady upward trend in the detection of this pathology [ 5 ]. This is because, during hemodialysis, mainly small solutes are removed from the bloodstream, while larger protein-bound uremic toxins remain in the blood [ 2 ]. The complex action of ESRD-related pathogenic factors causes arterial sclerosis and calcification, as well as other alterations in the cardiovascular system [ 6 ].…”

“…Furthermore, it is envisioned that molecules belonging to two different classes of uremic toxins proposed by the EUToxsmall water-soluble compounds and middle molecules-can be removed, as they are able to cross the membrane. Prototypes to small water-soluble compounds and middle molecules include urea and β 2 -microglobulin, with a respective MW of 60 Da and 11,818 Da [2]. The third group of uremic toxins, PBUTs, remains a challenge: whilst the free fraction of these molecules (MW < 500 Da) is able to cross the membrane and successfully be removed from the blood circulation, the rejection of the bound fraction will be hindered by the large MW associated with the complexes they form with albumin (>60 kDa).…”

“…The progressive loss of kidney function is linked to the retention of metabolic waste products, also known as retention solutes or uremic toxins (UTs), which are normally excreted by healthy kidneys. UTs are classified based on their molecular weight (MW), removal pattern during hemodialysis (HD), and relative affinity for protein binding, and are divided into three major groups: (1) small water-soluble compounds (MW < 500 Da); (2) middle molecules (MW ≥ 500 Da); and (3) protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs; MW < 500 Da when free, >66.5 kDa when bound to albumin (MW 66.5 kDa)) [2].…”

“…Uremia, also known as end-stage renal disease (ESRD), is a disease in which chronic renal insufficiency progresses to the terminal stage [ 1 ]. This is a metabolic disorder syndrome manifested by an irreversible decline in renal function [ 2 ].…”
