Diet in Different Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stones [PDF]
Nutrients, 2023 Diet can be a helpful tool to enhance the quality of urine and lower the likelihood and recurrence of kidney stones. This study set out to identify the foods and nutrients that are associated with each type of calcium oxalate kidney stone formation. A single-center, cross-sectional study was conducted.

Gut Microbiota-Isoallolithocholic Acid Crosstalk Promotes Calcium Oxalate Kidney Stone Formation via PARP1-Mediated Parthanatos. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)ABSTRACT Bile acids have been implicated in calcium oxalate (CaOx) nephrolithiasis. Here, we employ multi‐omics approaches to identify isoallolithocholic acid (isoalloLCA) as the key bile acid elevated in the feces, serum, kidney, and urine of CaOx rats, confirmed by spatial metabolomics.

Elemental Content of Calcium Oxalate Stones from a Canine Model of Urinary Stone Disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 One of the most common types of urinary stones formed in humans and some other mammals is composed of calcium oxalate in ordered hydrated crystals. Many studies have reported a range of metals other than calcium in human stones, but few have looked at ...

Calcium oxalate stone formation in genetic hypercalciuric stone-forming rats [PDF]
Kidney International, 2002 Over 54 generations, we have successfully bred a strain of rats that maximizes urinary calcium excretion. The rats now consistently excrete 8 to 10 times as much calcium as controls, uniformly form poorly crystalline calcium phosphate kidney stones, and are termed genetic hypercalciuric stone-forming (GHS) rats.

The Interaction between Enterobacteriaceae and Calcium Oxalate Deposits.
PLoS ONE, 2015 BackgroundThe role of calcium oxalate crystals and deposits in UTI pathogenesis has not been established. The objectives of this study were to identify bacteria present in pediatric urolithiasis and, using in vitro and in vivo models, to determine the ...
