Does salinity make a difference—Kidney anatomy of Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor and restriction by the major histocompatibility complex class I–related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines.

Inflammation in glomerular diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
The structural and functional integrity of glomerular cells is critical for maintaining normal kidney function. Glomerular diseases, which involve chronic histological damage to the kidney, are related to injury to glomerular cells such as endothelial cells, mesangial cells (MCs), and podocytes.

Reactive Oxygen Species–Induced Modifications of Fibrin Clots as a Link Between Immune Responses and Atherothrombosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiovascular events are major determinants of morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), particularly in patients with renal involvement. Although oxidative stress has been implicated in driving vascular and renal damage in SLE, the specific mechanisms remain unclear.

Tubulointerstitial injury and proximal tubule albumin transport in early diabetic nephropathy induced by type 1 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A decrease in the tubular expression of albumin endocytic transporters megalin and cubilin has been associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN), but there are no comprehensive studies to date relating early tubulointerstitial injury and the effect of the ...

Biomarkers of Lupus Nephritis Histopathology: Where Do We Stand?

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is characterized by a variable disease course, necessitating continuous monitoring. There is an urgent need to identify noninvasive biomarkers. By reviewing and critically assessing the quality of existing studies on LN biomarkers correlating with histopathology, we here explore the challenges in promoting their use in ...
