The Potential of Propolis in Chronic Kidney Disease with Bone and Mineral Disorder: A Literature Review

Nathan Adia Abiati1, Joni Susanto2*

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a heterogeneous syndrome characterized by a decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), an increase in serum creatinine within less than 7 days, and/or the presence of oliguria. Chronic kidney disease occurs progressively, evidenced by structural changes and a decline in kidney function for more than 3 months. The causes of chronic kidney disease are diverse, but there are two main pathophysiology underlying CKD: prolonged inflammation and oxidative stress. CKD-MBD (Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder) is one of the common complications that often occurs in CKD patients. It results from a disruption in the homeostasis of phosphate and calcium, leading to excessive resorption of bone matrix and potentially causing complications such as osteoporosis and vascular calcification. Propolis is a bee product with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Propolis has been proven effective as an adjunctive therapy for patients with chronic kidney disease. Additionally, propolis has protective effects on bones in various diseases, such as osteoporosis and fractures. However, to date, no studies have demonstrated the effects of propolis on bone in chronic kidney disease models.
