Remodeling of the collecting duct with urinary tract obstruction [PDF]
, 2012 Urinary tract obstruction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Obstruction occurs in both the fetus and adult, can lead to impaired renal development, substantial renal injury, dysplasia, or progressive fibrosis of the kidney.

Effect of acute ureteral obstruction on terminal collecting duct function in the weanling rat [PDF]
, 1979 Micropuncture techniques were employed to evaluate the effects of unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) of 18 h duration on the function of the terminal collecting duct in weanling rats 90-120 min following release of obstruction. In control animals and

Hybrid Continuum Robot Designs and Architectures for Healthcare Applications
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Hybrid continuum robots represent an emerging class of flexible manipulators that blend materials, structures, and actuation concepts from the established fields of soft and continuum robotics. This review introduces an accessible framework to distinguish key hybridization approaches, surveys current designs aimed at complex clinical applications, and ...

Differential expression of KCNQ1 K+ channel in tubular cells of frog kidney
European Journal of Histochemistry, 2010 The aim of this study was to evaluate KCNQ1 K+ channel expression in the frog kidney of Rana esculenta. KCNQ1 K+ channel, also known as KvLQT1, is the pore forming a-subunit of the IKs K+ channel, a delayed rectifier voltage-gated K+ channel, which has ...

The Renal Collecting Duct Rises to the Defence [PDF]
Nephron, 2019 When injury occurs, it implies that attack has overcome defence. Tubulointerstitial injury plays important roles in acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is the common pathway leading to end-stage renal disease, but how the renal tubulointerstitium defends against attack is poorly understood.

Development and Diseases of the Collecting Duct System [PDF]
, 2017 The collecting duct of the mammalian kidney is important for the regulation of extracellular volume, osmolarity, and pH. There are two major structurally and functionally distinct cell types: principal cells and intercalated cells. The former regulates Na+ and water homeostasis, while the latter participates in acid-base homeostasis.

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Interaction of amiloride and hydrochlorothiazide with atrial natriuretic factor in the medullary collecting duct [PDF]
, 1988 Medullary collecting duct function was studied using the in vivo microcatheterization technique in three groups of rats receiving amiloride, hydrochlorothiazide, or both diuretics.

Troglitazone Induces Extracellular Matrix and Cytoskeleton Remodeling in Mouse Collecting Duct Cells [PDF]
, 2012 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARγ) has been shown to have a protective role in the nephron through its ability to inhibit a transforming growth factor- (TGF-β) mediated fibrotic response.
