Özet

Background Renal involvement is present in approximately 50% of multiple myeloma (MM) cases and is associated with a poor prognosis. Procollagen C-Proteinase Enhancer 1 (PCPE-1) is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that has been shown to increase collagen production by enhancing the activity of Procollagen C-Proteinase (PCP) involved in collagen fibrillogenesis and contribute to the fibrotic process. This study investigates the relationship between PCPE-1 and renal function in myeloma patients. Methods Eighty-one adults, consisting of 61 patients diagnosed with MM and 20 healthy controls, were included in this cross-sectional study. The MM patients with renal injury (RI) were classified as MM-RI( +) and those with no RI as MM-RI(-). Results The median serum PCPE-1 level was 10.7 (5.0-39.4) ng/mL for the entire study population, 9.9 (5.0-13.6) ng/mL for the control group, 10.0 (6.4-22.5) ng/mL for the MM-RI(-) group, and 11.4 (8.1-39.4) ng/mL for the MM-RI( +) group. The difference between the control group and MM-RI( +) group was statistically significant (p < 0.013). PCPE-1 levels negatively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), serum albumin, and hemoglobin levels but positively correlated with serum creatinine and CRP levels in the entire study population. Among MM patients, only serum phosphorus and beta-2-microglobulin (beta 2M) were positively correlated with PCPE-1. PCPE-1 levels was not affected by other parameters in the entire study population and in the MM group. Conclusions Although serum PCPE-1 was higher in the MM-RI( +) group, it was thought to be associated with low GFR reflecting non-specific kidney injury rather than myeloma-related kidney injury.
