Abstract
Periostin is strongly expressed by fibroblasts and deposited in the peritoneal cavity of patients with EPS and with simple peritoneal fibrosis on PD. This protein might play a role in the progression of peritoneal injury, and low levels of periostin after prolonged time on PD might be a marker of EPS.
