Changes in renal WT-1 expression preceding hypertension development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Hypertension is a public health problem with mostly unknown causes, and where strong hereditary genetic alterations have not been fully elucidated. However, the use of experimental models has provided valuable information.

Macrophage Zc3h12c Limits Tissue Inflammation and Injury via Alternative Splicing of Pre‐mRNA

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work defines the context‐dependent function of Zc3h12c in macrophages using the Tnfrsf11a‐Cre system. It reveals Zc3h12c's dual mechanism—regulating RNA degradation and alternative splicing—with STAT1 as a key target. The findings elucidate a novel post‐transcriptional pathway and identify STAT1 isoforms as potential therapeutic targets for kidney

Why Is Diabetes Mellitus a Risk Factor for Contrast-Induced Nephropathy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) remains a leading cause of iatrogenic acute kidney injury, as the usage of contrast media for imaging and intravascular intervention keeps expanding. Diabetes is an important predisposing factor for CIN, particularly in

Treating Hearing Loss: From Cochlear Implantation to Gene Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cochlear implantation is the primary treatment for deafness, restoring functional hearing in over a million people. Recently, gene therapy has enabled biological hearing restoration in a small number of patients with OTOF‐related mutations. This perspective evaluates both approaches, concluding that cochlear implants will remain the standard for most ...

Impact of high dose versus low dose atorvastatin on contrast induced nephropathy in diabetic patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing early percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesThe Egyptian Heart Journal, 2015
Background: Statins with its anti-inflammatory and pleiotropic effects may prevent contrast induced nephropathy in high risk diabetic patients. Aim of work: To compare between the effects of high and low dose atorvastatin on preventing contrast induced ...

The Incidence of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy and the Need of Dialysis in Patients Receiving Angiography: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
ObjectivesThe risk of dialysis following contrast exposure is unclear. We aimed to examine the overall risk of contrast induced nephropathy and the need of dialysis based on a systematic review with random-effects meta-analysis.MethodsWe searched the ...

Intelligent Theranostic Systems Enabled by Aggregation‐Induced Emission in Precision Medicine

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
Aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) luminogens are driving a new generation of intelligent theranostic systems that integrate high‐fidelity imaging and multifunctional therapy. This review highlights how AIEgens, through restriction of intramolecular motion (RIM), enable deep‐tissue NIR‐II imaging, ultrasensitive biosensing, CRISPR‐assisted gene ...

Insulin resistance in type 1 diabetes: what is ‘double diabetes’ and what are the risks? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this review, we explore the concept of ‘double diabetes’, a combination of type 1 diabetes with features of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

Comparison of the effects of metformin, citral, Cymbopogon citratus extract and silver nanoparticles of Cymbopogon citratus extract on oxidative stress indices and Nrf2 levels in experimental type 2 diabetes in rats

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The experimental type 2 diabetes model in rats induced by streptozotocin and nicotinamide showed that silver nanoparticles synthesized from lemongrass extract modulate blood glucose, water and food intake, and enhance antioxidant enzyme synthesis and weight gains.
