Renal Tubular Epithelial CRLF1 Interacts With ITGB1 to Accelerate Fibrosis During the Transition From AKI to CKD

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During renal fibrosis, SMAD3 acts as a transcription factor for CRLF1, promoting its expression and secretion. CRLF1 then binds to ITGB1 via an autocrine mechanism, activating the PI3K‐AKT signaling pathway to mediate renal fibrosis. This accelerates the progression from AKI to CKD, highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeting CRLF1 for ...

The potency of native postbiotics and paraprobiotics in modulating inflammation by affecting the gut–kidney axis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Native postbiotics and paraprobiotics derived from Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains were administered to dextran sulfate sodium–treated C57BL/6 mice to evaluate their impact on kidney inflammation via the gut–kidney axis. Histological analysis and quantitative polymerase chain reaction of autophagy‐related genes (atg5, atg7, atg12, atg13 ...

THE EFFECT OF CORIANDER LEAF EXTRACT TOWARDS KIDNEY HISTOPATHOLOGICAL FEATURES ON WISTAR RAT INDUCED BY ORALLY ADMINISTERED MERCURY

Jurnal Kedokteran Diponegoro, 2021
Background: Mercury’s a toxic heavy metal that damages the kidney through generation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). Previous study has established that coriander leaves contained high level of antioxidants.

Gephyrin Neurological Autoimmunity

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Gephyrin is a postsynaptic scaffold protein essential for inhibitory neurotransmission. Gephyrin‐immunoglobulin G (IgG) was reported, decades ago, in a single case of paraneoplastic stiff‐person‐like syndrome, but its broader clinical relevance remains unknown.

Altered glycolipid metabolism during acute kidney injury exacerbates renal inflammation

Scientific Reports
Acute kidney injury (AKI) can progress to chronic kidney disease (CKD), via a mechanism that is still largely unknown. We previously reported that glucosylceramide (GlcCer) acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) during AKI.

Proximal Tubular Injury in Medullary Rays Is an Early Sign of Acute Tacrolimus Nephrotoxicity

Journal of Transplantation, 2015
Tacrolimus (FK506) is one of the principal immunosuppressive agents used after solid organ transplantations to prevent allograft rejection. Chronic renal injury induced by tacrolimus is characterized by linear fibrosis in the medullary rays; however, the

Localization of retinol-binding protein messenger RNA in the rat kidney and in perinephric fat tissue.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
The cellular localization of retinol-binding protein (RBP) messenger RNA (mRNA) in the kidney, and the developmental pattern of the renal expression of the RBP gene, were studied in the Sprague-Dawley rat.

Opposite physiological and pathological mTORC1-mediated roles of the CB1 receptor in regulating renal tubular function

Nature Communications, 2022
Renal proximal tubules modulate whole-body homeostasis by sensing various nutrients. Here the authors describe the existence and importance of a unique CB1/mTORC1/GLUT2 signaling axis in regulating nutrient homeostasis in healthy and diseased kidney.

Does salinity make a difference—Kidney anatomy of Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

Morphophysiological dynamics of the proximal post‐testicular ducts in Crotalus durissus Linnaeus, 1758 (Squamata: Viperidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.
