Tissue xanthine oxidoreductase activity in a mouse model of aristolochic acid nephropathy
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 507-518, February 2021., 2021 We investigated the activity of xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) in a mouse model of aristolochic acid I (AA)‐induced nephropathy, a type of chronic kidney disease (CKD). After 4 weeks of AA (2.5 mg·kg−1) administration, renal histology revealed an increase in tubular interstitial fibrosis and XOR activity was persistently increased in renal tissue.

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) has become an alarming health issue in Sri Lanka. The disease is more notable among farming communities and people who consume groundwater as their main source of drinking water. To assess the possible links between drinking water chemistry and expansion of CKDu, the study was compared with ...

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Objective. Nephritis or kidney inflammation is characterized as one of the most common renal disorders leading to serious damage to the kidneys. Nephritis, especially lupus nephritis (LN), has remained as the main cause of chronic renal failure which needs serious therapeutic approaches such as dialysis and kidney transplant.

Acute Kidney Injury Following the Ingestion of a Medicinal Plants' Mixture: A Case Report. [PDF]
Case Rep NephrolAcute renal failure secondary to medicinal plants is common in countries where the use of traditional phytotherapy is preponderant. Although the nephrotoxic potentials of some herbal preparations have been well characterized, the use of many medicinal plants is still considered largely safe, often relying on weak evidence. Here, we report the case of a

Tamm-Horsfall Protein in Balkan Endemic Nephropathy [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 1985 It is suggested that Tamm-Horsfall protein, a specific renal glycoprotein, may be involved in the pathogenesis of some renal diseases. In cadmium nephropathy and Fanconi syndrome (primary tubular diseases of the kidney) an increased excretion rate of Tamm-Horsfall protein has been observed.
