Abstract
Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor (TKI) is a class of drugs that interfere with protein kinases' signal transduction pathways through an array of inhibitory mechanisms. Tyrosine kinases (TK) have an inevitable role in downstream signal transduction and the proliferation of tumour cells. Hence, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are frequently employed as anti-neoplastic agents in the treatment of colon, breast, kidney, and lung cancers. They can be used as single or combination therapy with other targeted therapies. It is understood that TKIs pose a risk of developing proteinuria in some patients as it can primarily result in dysfunction of the split diaphragm, constriction or blockage of capillary lumens mediated by the basement membrane, acute interstitial nephritis, or acute tubular necrosis. This paper reviews the mechanism of action of TKIs, the pathophysiological mechanism of TKI-induced proteinuria, and its management Fig. 1.
期刊介绍：
Drug Research (formerly Arzneimittelforschung) is an international peer-reviewed journal with expedited processing times presenting the very latest research results related to novel and established drug molecules and the evaluation of new drug development. A key focus of the publication is translational medicine and the application of biological discoveries in the development of drugs for use in the clinical environment. Articles and experimental data from across the field of drug research address not only the issue of drug discovery, but also the mathematical and statistical methods for evaluating results from industrial investigations and clinical trials. Publishing twelve times a year, Drug Research includes original research articles as well as reviews, commentaries and short communications in the following areas: analytics applied to clinical trials chemistry and biochemistry clinical and experimental pharmacology drug interactions efficacy testing pharmacodynamics pharmacokinetics teratology toxicology.
