Kidney Aging and Chronic Kidney Disease

International Journal of Molecular Sciences
The process of aging inevitably leads to an increase in age-related comorbidities, including chronic kidney disease (CKD). In many aspects, CKD can be considered a state of accelerated and premature aging. Aging kidney and CKD have numerous common characteristic features, ranging from pathological presentation and clinical manifestation to underlying ...

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

The impact of intravenous methylprednisolone pulses on renal survival in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody associated vasculitis with severe renal injury patients: a retrospective study

BMC Nephrology, 2017
Background High-dose methylprednisolone pulses were one of the main treatments for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) associated vasculitides (AAV) but had obvious side effects.

Monogenic Kidney Diseases in Kidney Transplantation

Kidney International Reports
Monogenic kidney diseases are involved in up to 15% of end-stage kidney diseases (ESKDs) in adults, and in 70 % of pediatric patients. When these disorders lead to kidney failure (KF), kidney transplantation (KT) is the preferred mode of replacement therapy.

Invisible but not inaccessible—Revealing transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins with solution NMR and complementary methods

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Transient oligomers formed by intrinsically disordered proteins may be ‘invisible’ to direct detection yet remain accessible to solution NMR through equilibrium‐exchange measurements and pressure‐jump experiments. Complementary methods report on mass, stoichiometry, selected distance distributions, morphology, and internal packing.

GEN1 as a risk factor for human congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract

Human Genomics
Background Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are prevalent birth defects. Although pathogenic CAKUT genes are known, they are insufficient to reveal the causes for all patients.

Kidney diseases. Advances in diagnosis and treatment. III.Hereditary kidney diseases and others. Polycystic kidney disease.

Nihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1996
多発性嚢胞腎には,常染色体優性多発性嚢胞腎(ADPKD)と常染色体劣性多発性嚢胞腎(ARPKD)がある. ADPKDは,多発性の腎嚢胞が出現し,腎機能が進行性に低下することと,頭蓋内出血が生命を脅かす主要な病態である. ADPKDの遺伝子異常には少なくとも二つの異なった部位が知られている. PKD1は腎機能の予後,嚢胞の程度がPKD2より厳しい.第16番染色体短腕にPKD1が同定され, PKD1蛋白は, 11回細胞膜を貫いて存在する糖蛋白で,細胞細胞間,あるいは細胞マトリックス間の結合に関与していることが推測されている.第4番染色体長腕上にPKD2の遺伝子が同定され,その蛋白は刺激伝達系に関与していることが推測されている.

Neutralization of the PTX3/CD44 axis suppresses TGF‐β1 signaling in kidney fibrosis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study investigates how the PTX3/CD44 axis promotes kidney fibrosis by activating TGF‐β1 signaling. We demonstrate that the neutralizing antibody WHC‐001 effectively inhibits this pathway, suppressing myofibroblast activation and partial epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT).
