Claudins in the Renal Collecting Duct [PDF]
The renal collecting duct fine-tunes urinary composition, and thereby, coordinates key physiological processes, such as volume/blood pressure regulation, electrolyte-free water reabsorption, and acid-base homeostasis.

Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a disorder of the hypothalamic‐pituitary axis resulting in abnormal sodium (Na) balance, dilute urine, and hypertonic dehydration. DI may impact lactation by impacting hormones necessary for lactation maintenance or through DI‐related alterations in pituitary function and Na metabolism. Two lactating mothers with DI presented

V2 vasopressin receptor mutations: future personalized therapy based on individual molecular biology
The diluting and concentrating function of the kidney plays a crucial role in regulating the water homeostasis of the body. This function is regulated by the antidiuretic hormone, arginine vasopressin through the type 2 vasopressin receptor (V2R ...

Physiological basis of arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D, formerly central diabetes insipidus) and AVP-resistance (AVP-R, formerly nephrogenic diabetes insipidus) [PDF]
This review explored the physiological mechanisms underlying arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D, formerly central diabetes insipidus) and AVP resistance (AVP-R, formerly nephrogenic diabetes insipidus), with a focus on water balance regulation. Vital

Li exposure up‐regulates FOXO1 expression levels and thus promotes FOXO1‐mediated STEAP4 transcription, up‐regulating STEAP4 levels. Subsequently, STEAP4 up‐regulates intracellular Cu+ ion levels and causes cuproptosis, which further induces miscarriage.

Drug-induced metabolic acidosis [PDF]
Summary: Drug causes of metabolic acidosis are numerous and their mechanisms are diverse. Broadly, they can cause metabolic acidosis with either a normal anion gap (e.g. drug-induced renal tubular acidosis) or an elevated anion gap (e.g.

Lithium Augmentation in Treatment‐Resistant Depression: A Qualitative Review of the Literature
ABSTRACT Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide, affecting people of all ages. Both pharmacological and non‐pharmacological therapies are available for its treatment. However, some patients do not respond to first‐line pharmacological interventions, referred to as treatment‐resistant depression (TRD).

Disruption of cyclooxygenase-2 prevents down-regulation of cortical AQP2 and AQP3 in response to bilateral ureteral obstruction in the mouse [PDF]
Bilateral ureteral obstruction (BUO) in rats is associated with increased cyclooxygenase type 2 (COX-2) expression, and selective COX-2 inhibition prevents downregulation of aquaporins (AQPs) in response to BUO.
