Human kidney glomerulus proteome and biomarker discovery of kidney diseases

Proteomics - Clinical Applications, 2008
AbstractThe kidney glomerulus is the site of plasma filtration and production of primary urine in the kidney. The structure not only plays a pivotal role in ultrafiltration of plasma into urine but also is the locus of kidney diseases progressing to chronic renal failure.

Kidney Glomerulus Observation in Interactive VR Space

International Journal of Image and Graphics, 2003
This paper presents the system designed to observe kidney glomeruli interactively with conventional CCD cameras and immersive virtual reality (VR) space. First, we captured the X-ray transmitted images and converted them to computer tomogram (CT). Second, the three-dimensional (3D) image was reconstructed using various image processing, binarization ...

Recognition of kidney glomerulus by dynamic programming matching method

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 1988
Dynamic programming was applied to locate the glomeruli in microscopic images of kidney tissue section. The glomeruli were modeled by a polygon whose sides could be varied within a given range of lengths. The objects were located by determining the best match of the model according to a so-called optimum criterion in which all possible shapes were ...

Ultracytochemistry of Aminopeptidase A (angiotensinase A) in the kidney glomerulus and juxtaglomerular apparatus

Histochemistry, 1982
Ultracytochemical studies of the Aminopeptidase A (APA; angiotensinase A; E.C. 3.4.11.7) were performed on perfusion fixed rat and mouse kidneys (low concentration aldehydes) using simultaneous azo coupling with alpha-L-Glu-MNA as substrate and HPR as well as HNF as coupling agents. The studies of glomeruli and juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) show that

Purinergic Receptors in the Glomerulus and Vasculature of the Kidney

2003
Publisher Summary This chapter summarizes observations in the area of purinergic control of renal microvascular and glomerular function and highlights important questions that remain to be resolved. It focuses on new developments made related to intrarenal P2 receptors; however, some attention is directed toward observations related to P1 or ...

Angiotensin II and the glomerulus: Focus on diabetic kidney disease

Current Hypertension Reports, 2003
The renin-angiotensin system plays a key role in the progression of kidney disease, in addition to its well-described role in the maintenance of extracellular fluid volume and blood pressure. Recent studies have shown that blockade of the renin-angiotensin system at the level of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor can have important effects on ...

[Repartition of the kidney cortex glomerulus in rats].

Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales, 1979
This paper presents the repartition of 989 glomeruli in 8 parallel concentric renal cortex zones, by projecting on a calibrated screen rat kidney slices photographies. The glomerular density increases regularly from the outside to the middle cortical zones and then decreases to the deepest juxtamedullary zones.
