Comment# 1

Endocan also described as endothelial cell specific molecule (ESM1) is a proteoglycan of 50kda which is highly upregulated in various vascular diseases. Endocan binds CD11a / CD18 integrin on human leukocyte. Pro-inflammatory mediators such as TNFalpha and proantiogenic molecules such as VEGF or FGF 2 stimulate the formation of this mediator. Elevated blood levels of endocan have been reported in patients with cancer (lung, kidney, blood), severe sepsis, and post-transplantation veno-occlusive disease. The purpose of this study is to measure endocan in ESRD patients to demonstrate its relevance to this disease.
