Testosterone Exposure During Fetal Masculinization Programming Window Determines the Kidney Size in Adult Mice. [PDF]

FASEB J
Kidney size is sex‐dimorphic and regulated by androgens in adult humans and mice. Male mice lacking the main testosterone‐producing enzyme HSD17B3 had reduced testosterone during a short fetal time window, leading to reduced size of kidneys in adults, which were not responsive to high adult testosterone.

Cell Lines from Kidney Proximal Tubules of a Patient with Lowe Syndrome Lack OCRL Inositol Polyphosphate 5-Phosphatase and Accumulate Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Bisphosphate*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
The protein product of the gene that when mutated is responsible for Lowe syndrome, or oculocerebrorenal syndrome (OCRL), is an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase.

Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

A single-nucleus RNA-sequencing pipeline to decipher the molecular anatomy and pathophysiology of human kidneys [PDF]

, 2019
Defining cellular and molecular identities within the kidney is necessary to understand its organization and function in health and disease. Here we demonstrate a reproducible method with minimal artifacts for single-nucleus Droplet-based RNA sequencing (

Albumin uptake in human podocytes: a possible role for the cubilin-amnionless (CUBAM) complex [PDF]

, 2017
Albumin re-uptake is a receptor-mediated pathway located in renal proximal tubuli. There is increasing evidence of glomerular protein handling by podocytes, but little is known about the mechanism behind this process.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Expression of the plasma prekallikrein gene: utilization of multiple transcription start sites and alternative promoter regions [PDF]

, 2005
The plasma prekallikrein gene is expressed in many different human tissues at distinctly different levels and therefore tissue-specific control of the gene transcription is likely.

Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...
