PURPOSETo determine serum fetuin-A pattern after renal transplantation and its association with graft outcome.MATERIALS AND METHODSIn 41 renal transplant recipients, serum pretransplant fetuin-A levels and serum fetuin-A concentrations on days 7 and 30 after transplantation were measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent as­say (ELISA) method. Also, the association between serum fetuin-A levels with clinical and laboratory parameters was evaluated.RESULTSA significant decrease in serum fetuin-A levels was noted in the first week after transplantation (P < .001). Subsequently, it started to increase and surpass pretransplant values during the first month (P < .001). Pretransplant fetuin-A levels did not differ among patients with different diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) results. In addition, serum fetuin-A levels did not significantly correlate with metabolic parameters.CONCLUSIONIn this prospective study there was no increase in serum fetuin-A levels during the first month and pretransplant fetuin-A levels are not predictive for allograft outcome in renal transplant recipients.
