Chronic renal failure, also known as chronic kidney disorder (CKD), is a condition in which the kidney functioning declines slowly, but steadily. Chronic renal failure is a gradual process which goes on for weeks, months, or years, and the kidneys slowly stop working.

The main function of kidneys are to remove waste from the body and prevent toxins from building up in the bloodstream. They also produce hormones that control other body functions.

Causes:

The most common causes are diabetes (type 1 or type 2 diabetes) and high blood pressure. Damage to small blood vessels in the body is a complication arising from these two conditions. The kidneys blood vessels also get damaged, resulting into CKD.Other common causes are kidney infection, multiple cysts in the kidneys, urinary tract blockages, and excessive use of medications.

Symptoms:

Chronic renal failure symptoms appear years after it starts developing.This can be caught early only by conducting regular blood tests of a suspected patient. Some signs are more obvious than others. A few signs are abnormal urination, puffy eyes, hands, and feet (called edema), high blood pressure, fatigue and shortness of breath, loss of appetite. This can also go up to seizures and mental confusion.

Once a patient is diagnosed with chronic renal failure, the treatment depends on the medical problem and its complications that have caused the kidney failure.

Stem cells are known to have a tangible application in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). They have the ability to regenerate glomerulus, interstitium, blood vessels and tubules, the four essential components of the renal matrix and in-turn potentially reverses symptoms of CKD. They secrete protective and nourished factors that prevent progressive apoptosis of functional cells and stimulate replication of host cells.

The improvement can be depicted by a gradual decrease in BUN, creatinine, and uric acid levels. Overtime GFR and urine output should also improve substantially with regeneration of the kidney tissue.
