Adaptive changes in GFR, tubular morphology, and transport in subtotal nephrectomized kidneys: modeling and analysis [PDF]
Removal of renal mass stimulates anatomical and functional adaptations in the surviving nephrons, including elevations in single-nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR) and tubular hypertrophy. A goal of this study is to assess the extent to which the

Aims To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) and PK/pharmacodynamics (PD) regarding glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) lowering using the paediatric data from DINAMO and to assess differences compared with adults. Methods Population PK and PK/PD models previously developed for empagliflozin in adults and adolescents were re‐estimated in a Bayesian ...

A recipe for myositis : nuclear factor κB and nuclear factor of activated T-cells transcription factor pathways spiced up by cytokines [PDF]
Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is a well-known pro-inflammatory transcription factor that regulates the expression of the tissue’s immune-active components, which include cytokines, chemokines and adhesion molecules.

CryoEM structure of the human SLC4A4 sodium-coupled acid-base transporter NBCe1. [PDF]
Na+-coupled acid-base transporters play essential roles in human biology. Their dysfunction has been linked to cancer, heart, and brain disease. High-resolution structures of mammalian Na+-coupled acid-base transporters are not available.

Cation Chloride Cotransporters (CCCs) comprise secondary active membrane proteins mainly mediating the symport of cations (Na+, K+) coupled with chloride (Cl-). They are divided into K+-Cl- outward transporters (KCCs), the Na+-K+-Cl- (NKCCs) and Na+-Cl- (

Aims In this study, we examined the effects of assigning partial credit to selected answer choices on student performance and perceptions in a pharmacology course using Type A multiple‐choice questions (MCQs). Methods Partial credit scoring was incorporated into quizzes and exams in a 10‐week pharmacology course for postbaccalaureate premedical ...

Stochastic models of cotransport
Cell membrane transport plays a pivotal role in facilitating communication between the cell and its environment. Within this context, cotransport emerges as a vital mechanism, harnessing electrochemical gradients to energize the transmembrane translocation of solutes.

Structural Pharmacology of Cation-Chloride Cotransporters
Loop and thiazide diuretics have been cornerstones of clinical management of hypertension and fluid overload conditions for more than five decades. The hunt for their molecular targets led to the discovery of cation-chloride cotransporters (CCCs) that catalyze electroneutral movement of Cl− together with Na+ and/or K+.

Role of physiological ClC-1 Cl- ion channel regulation for the excitability and function of working skeletal muscle. [PDF]
Electrical membrane properties of skeletal muscle fibers have been thoroughly studied over the last five to six decades. This has shown that muscle fibers from a wide range of species, including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, are all ...

Euglycemic diabetes ketoacidosis associated with SGLT-2 inhibitors - review of case reports
AIM: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have gained significant importance in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. One of the adverse effects while using SGLT-2 inhibitors is euglycemic ketoacidosis (euDKA) - acute life-threatening ...
