SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: In this study, we aimed to determine fibroblast growth factor 23, soluble alpha klotho, osteocalcin, indoxyl sulphate, sclerostin, Procollagen 1 N Terminal Propeptide, and beta-CrossLaps levels in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients, and to compare the levels of these markers among hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients, as well as healthy individuals. METHODS: The study included 30 hemodialysis and 23 peritoneal dialysis patients who were followed-up for at least six months at the Sakarya University Hospital, besides 30 healthy volunteers. RESULTS: The participants were divided into three groups with similar characteristics in terms of age, gender and body mass index. Fibroblast growth factor 23, soluble alpha klotho, indoxyl sulphate, beta-CrossLaps, and Procollagen 1 N Terminal Propeptide levels were significantly higher in patients of both the hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis groups than in the healthy volunteers’ group. There was no difference in levels of these molecules between hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis groups. CONCLUSIONS: Fibroblast growth factor 23, sclerostin, indoxyl sulphate, beta-CrossLaps, and Paclitaxel-induced neuropathic pain levels were higher in patients of both groups as inflammatory markers. In our study, we found higher soluble alpha klotho levels in patients of both groups than in the healthy volunteers’ group, suggesting that blood soluble alpha klotho levels may not correlate with renal klotho levels.
