Cystatin C as Biomarker for the Evaluation of Renal Outcome in AL Amyloidosis

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cystatin C (CysC) has emerged as a novel and potentially more reliable biomarker for the estimation of glomerular filtration in the general population in patients with various conditions. In AL amyloidosis, the current renal staging system and renal response criteria are based on proteinuria and creatinine‐based eGFR.

Association Between APOL1 Genotypes and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis). [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND:APOL1 genetic variants confer an increased risk for kidney disease. Their associations with cardiovascular disease (CVD) are less certain. We aimed to compare the prevalence of subclinical CVD and incidence of atherosclerotic CVD and heart ...

Renal Function in Suckling and Fasting Pups of the Northern Elephant Seal [PDF]

, 2001
Elephant seals fast for prolonged periods without access to water. This is made possible, in part, by reductions in urine production. However, the mechanisms involved in reducing urine production are not understood.

Mild and moderate pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease is associated with increased coronary artery calcium. [PDF]

, 2011
BackgroundIt is increasingly evident that patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are more likely to die from heart disease than kidney failure. This study evaluated whether pre- dialysis CKD is an independent risk factor for coronary artery calcium ...

Expressing the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study equation for estimating glomerular filtration rate with standardized serum creatinine values.

Clinical Chemistry, 2007
PURPOSE We sought to reexpress the 4-variable Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation for estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) using serum creatinine (S(cr)) standardized to reference methods.

Long‐term immunosuppression of rabbits through oral tacrolimus administration

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Oral gavage of rabbits with 1.5 mg/kg/d of tacrolimus allows for an efficient long‐term (1 year) immunosuppression with minimal side effects and no loss of animals. lmmunosuppressed rabbits are a convenient animal model to investigate the long‐term efficacy of human allografts in vivo.

Evaluation of estimated glomerular filtration rate and clinical variables in systemic sclerosis patients [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: The most important renal complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc) is scleroderma renal crisis (SRC). Many patients demonstrate less severe renal complications, most likely associated with reduced renal blood flow and a consequent reduction in

Long‐Circulating Nanobody Confers Durable Prophylaxis against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Omicron Infection

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This study explores Fc engineering to extend nanobody half‐lives in vivo. Herein, it is demonstrated that the circulation half‐life of Nanosota‐3A‐Fc, a novel nanobody with potent neutralizing activity against SARS‐CoV‐2 Omicron BA.1 variant, can be greatly prolonged by introducing M252Y/S254T/T256E (YTE) substitutions in the IgG1 Fc domain, which ...
