Pharmacological inhibition of the NLRP3 inflammasome reduces blood pressure, renal damage, and dysfunction in salt-sensitive hypertension

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2018
Aims Renal inflammation, leading to fibrosis and impaired function is a major contributor to the development of hypertension. The NLRP3 inflammasome mediates inflammation in several chronic diseases by processing the cytokines pro-interleukin (IL)-1β and

Angiotensin II‐induced renal angiotensinogen formation is enhanced in mice lacking tumor necrosis factor‐alpha type 1 receptor

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
In hypertension induced by angiotensin II (AngII) administration with high salt (HS) intake, intrarenal angiotensinogen (AGT) and tumor necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) levels increase.

Role of the Sympathetic Nervous System and Its Modulation in Renal Hypertension

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2018
The kidneys are densely innervated with renal efferent and afferent nerves to communicate with the central nervous system. Innervation of major structural components of the kidneys, such as blood vessels, tubules, the pelvis, and glomeruli, forms a ...

Obesity-induced hypertension: interaction of neurohumoral and renal mechanisms.

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2015
Excess weight gain, especially when associated with increased visceral adiposity, is a major cause of hypertension, accounting for 65% to 75% of the risk for human primary (essential) hypertension.

Signaling pathways involved in renal oxidative injury: role of the vasoactive peptides and the renal dopaminergic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The physiological hydroelectrolytic balance and the redox steady state in the kidney are accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between antinatriuretic and natriuretic factors.

Association Between Blood Pressure and Adverse Renal Events in Type 1 Diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
ObjectiveTo compare different blood pressure (BP) levels in their association with the risk of renal outcomes in type 1 diabetes and to determine whether an intensive glycemic control strategy modifies this association.Research design and methodsWe ...

Rehydration with fructose worsens dehydration-induced renal damage

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2018
Background Increasing evidence suggests heat stress induced chronic kidney disease (CKD) may be mediated by endogenous fructose generation and may be exacerbated by rehydration by fructose-containing solutions.

Metformin does not slow cyst growth in the PCK rat model of polycystic kidney disease

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
Metformin (MET) has the potential to activate p‐AMPK and block mTORC1‐induced proliferation of tubular cells in PKD kidneys. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of MET on cyst growth, kidney function, AMPK and mTOR signaling, and lactate ...
