Determinants of Vascular Permeability in the Kidney Glomerulus* [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002 The human kidneys filter 70 liters of blood plasma every day. The hallmark of almost all kidney diseases, whether acquired or genetic, is the leakage of plasma proteins into the urine because of alterations in the glomerular filtration unit of the kidney.

Kidney Lipidomics by Mass Spectrometry Imaging: A Focus on the Glomerulus [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 Lipid disorders have been associated with glomerulopathies, a distinct type of renal pathologies, such as nephrotic syndrome. Global analyses targeting kidney lipids in this pathophysiologic context have been extensively performed, but most often ...

Organogenesis of the kidney glomerulus [PDF]
Organogenesis, 2011 The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is a crucial component of the kidney's filtration barrier that separates the vasculature from the urinary space. During glomerulogenesis, the GBM is formed from fusion of two distinct basement membranes, one synthesized by the glomerular epithelial cell (podocyte) and the other by the glomerular endothelial cell ...

Extracellular matrix and vascular dynamics in the kidney of a murine model for Marfan syndrome.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Fibrillin-1 is a pivotal structural component of the kidney's glomerulus and peritubular tissue. Mutations in the fibrillin-1 gene result in Marfan syndrome (MFS), an autosomal dominant disease of the connective tissue.

Glycerol Improves Intracerebral Hemorrhagic Brain Injury and Associated Kidney Dysfunction in Rats
Antioxidants, 2021 In stroke patients, the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) is closely linked with worse outcomes and increased mortality. In this study, the interplay between post-stroke and AKI and treatment options was investigated in a rodent model of ...

Micromachines, 2021 Kidney microphysiological systems (MPS) serve as potentially valuable preclinical instruments in probing mechanisms of renal clearance and osmoregulation. Current kidney MPS models target regions of the nephron, such as the glomerulus and proximal tubule

MORPHOLOGICAL AND HISTOLOGICAL STUDY FOR THE KIDNEYS OF COOT BIRD ( Fulica atra ) [PDF]
Basrah Journal of Veterinary Research, 2012 Present study were carried out on ten adult males of coot bird, for determinate the histological structure of kidneys. The results were showed that each kidney consisted of three parts, a large cranial (mean of its length 28±0.15mm and its width13±0.08mm)

Effect of Fluoxetine on Kidney of Albino Rats- A Histological Study [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2019 Introduction: Fluoxetine and other Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) are reported to produce hyponatremia especially in elderly patients. Aim: To evaluate histological changes in kidney tissue of albino rats by different doses of fluoxetine
