Immunosenescence and Immune Exhaustion Are Associated with Levels of Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins in Patients on Hemodialysis

Background: The accumulation of protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) in chronic kidney disease may affect patients’ immune status. The aim of the study was to evaluate their potential impacts on lymphocyte alterations in patients on hemodialysis (HD). Methods: The plasma levels of PBUTs were assessed...
