This systematic review compiles and analyses 364 studies on chronic kidney disease (CKD) that investigated extracellular vesicles (EVs) for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. By systematically categorizing data according to EV source and cargo, it provides an integrated overview of EV application for CKD, highlighting common approaches and shared

Background: chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosis relies on glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) estimation, traditionally using the creatinine-based Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation.

Teriparatide in Two Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVB
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IV is a multisystem lysosomal storage disease characterized by severe skeletal dysplasia resulting from impaired degradation of the glycosaminoglycans keratan sulfate and chondroitin‐6‐sulfate. The condition is classified into Types A and B based on the underlying enzyme deficiency.

Abstract Legumain is a lysosomal cysteine protease that plays a central role in antigen processing for MHC class II presentation. Beyond its canonical proteolytic activity, legumain can also function as a peptide ligase or transpeptidase. This non‐canonical activity becomes particularly relevant under pathophysiological conditions such as cancer and ...

Evaluating Protein Enrichment Methods to Improve Biomarker Discovery in Equine Cerebrospinal Fluid
Here, we compared two protein enrichment methods—ProteoMiner Small‐Capacity and PreOmics Enrich‐iST—for proteomic analysis of equine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). PreOmics Enrich‐iST achieved superior depletion of high‐abundance proteins and identified a greater number of low‐abundance, neuropathology‐relevant proteins than ProteoMiner or native digestion.

Beyond the Barrier: Epithelial Cells as Immune Sentinels in the Female Genital Tract
ABSTRACT Epithelial cells (ECs) of the female genital tract (FGT) serve as an essential barrier and the first line of defense against sexually transmitted pathogens. Beyond providing a physical barrier, these cells actively contribute to immune responses through pathogen recognition, cytokine release, and modulation of adaptive immune responses ...

Abstract This study evaluates mannitol as a clearance marker for measuring glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in outpatients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Multi‐sample iohexol clearance served as the reference method. Twenty patients with CKD, stages 3–4, received bolus injections of both clearance markers simultaneously.

Rapid improvement of renal microcirculatory homeostasis by liraglutide following diabetes induction
Abstract Aims Renal microvascular dysfunction is a central driver of diabetic kidney disease, yet the potential for rapid therapeutic reversal remains obscure. We investigated the effect of short‐term liraglutide on early changes in the renal microcirculation post‐induction of diabetes.
