Ferroptosis and kidney diseases

International Urology and Nephrology, 2019
Ferroptosis is a form of iron-dependent, non-apoptotic regulated cell death, which is characterized by the accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides to lethal levels. Ferroptosis recently has been shown to have implications in diverse kidney diseases, such as acute kidney injury, polycystic kidney disease and renal cell carcinoma.

Kidney Disease and Epilepsy

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2021
Chronic kidney disease and seizures often co-exist. When seizures are provoked in patients with kidney disease, their treatment poses a particular challenge. Seizures may be provoked in the context of uremia, and toxic substances associated with uremic encephalopathy. In that case, the mainstay of therapy is to treat the uremia before consideration for

Liver and kidney diseases

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2002
The spectrum of renal disease in patients with liver disease is expanding. The recognition of renal complications of liver diseases is essential in the management of these patients. As liver transplantation is a treatment option for many patients with chronic liver disease, the presence of renal complications impacts the decision regarding ...

Autophagy in Kidney Disease

Annual Review of Physiology, 2020
Autophagy is a cellular homeostatic program for the turnover of cellular organelles and proteins, in which double-membraned vesicles (autophagosomes) sequester cytoplasmic cargos, which are subsequently delivered to the lysosome for degradation. Emerging evidence implicates autophagy as an important modulator of human disease.
