Continuous growth of proximal tubular kidney epithelial cells in hormone-supplemented serum-free medium. [PDF]
An epithelial cell line from pig kidney (LLC-PK1) with properties of proximal tubular cells can be maintained indefinitely in hormone-supplemented serum-free medium. Continuous growth requires the presence of seven factors: transferrin, insulin, selenium,

Localization of the succinate receptor in the distal nephron and its signaling in polarized MDCK cells [PDF]
When the succinate receptor (SUCNR1) is activated in the afferent arterioles of the glomerulus it increases renin release and induces hypertension.

Kidney stones cause significant pain and healthcare costs. Current prediction, diagnosis, and treatment options are limited. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), rich in proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, offer a promising solution. This review explores the roles of EVs in kidney stone management, highlighting their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic ...

Signaling pathways involved in renal oxidative injury: role of the vasoactive peptides and the renal dopaminergic system [PDF]
The physiological hydroelectrolytic balance and the redox steady state in the kidney are accomplished by an intricate interaction between signals from extrarenal and intrarenal sources and between antinatriuretic and natriuretic factors.

Objectives Dotinurad is a selective urate reabsorption inhibitor that reduces serum urate levels. We compared the efficacy and safety of dotinurad with febuxostat in Chinese patients with gout. Methods This phase 3, multicentre, randomised, double‐blind, parallel‐group study randomly allocated (1:1) eligible patients with gout to receive oral dotinurad

MORPHOLOGICAL AND HISTOLOGICAL STUDY FOR THE KIDNEYS OF COOT BIRD ( Fulica atra ) [PDF]
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)

Boundary-Aware Network for Kidney Parsing [PDF]
Kidney structures segmentation is a crucial yet challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of surgery-based renal cancer. Although numerous deep learning models have achieved remarkable success in many medical image segmentation tasks, accurate segmentation of kidney structures on computed tomography angiography (CTA) images remains challenging ...

Expression of metallothionein in renal tubules of rats exposed to acute and endurance exercise.
The induction of exercise-induced apoptosis in not actively involved in exercise organs, such as kidney could be a result of oxidative stress. Metallothionein (MT) exerts a protective effect in the cell against oxidative stress and apoptosis.
