Impact of gender in early structural changes of contrast induced nephropathy in rats

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology
Introduction: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a major iatrogenic cause of acute kidney injury. Experimental studies have shown that intravascular injection causes intense vacuolization of the contrast agent in the proximal renal tubules cells ...

Renal proximal tubular reabsorption is reduced in adult spontaneously hypertensive rats: roles of superoxide and NHE3 [PDF]

, 2009
Proximal tubule reabsorption is regulated by systemic and intrinsic mechanisms, including locally produced autacoids. Superoxide (O2−), produced by NADPH oxidase (NOX) enhances NaCl transport in the loop of Henle and the collecting duct, but its role in ...

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Effects of proximal tubule-specific ATRAP enhancement on hypertension in a remnant kidney chronic kidney disease model of mice

Scientific Reports
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently accompanies hypertension, exacerbating CKD progression in a vicious cycle. Angiotensin II type 1 receptor-associated protein (ATRAP) promotes AT1 receptor internalization to inhibit hyperactivation of its ...

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Tubulointerstitial injury and proximal tubule albumin transport in early diabetic nephropathy induced by type 1 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

, 2017
A decrease in the tubular expression of albumin endocytic transporters megalin and cubilin has been associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN), but there are no comprehensive studies to date relating early tubulointerstitial injury and the effect of the ...

Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and the risk of late onset epilepsy: A real‐world cohort study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Late onset epilepsy (LOE) is associated with substantial morbidity. Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) may exert neuroprotective effects. This study evaluated the association between SGLT2i and risk of LOE among older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Nutritional Potential, Phytochemical Content, In Vivo Antioxidant, and Antanemic Potential of Musa paradisiaca Flower

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
After collecting Musa paradisiaca leaves, some were dried and others were used to produce aqueous extracts. The extracts and powders were characterized and then administered to rats made anaemic by PHZ. After 14 days of administration of the two samples, the rats were euthanized and it was observed that after 9 days of treatment, the aqueous extract ...
