Continuous growth of proximal tubular kidney epithelial cells in hormone-supplemented serum-free medium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
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,

PPARα contributes to protection against metabolic and inflammatory derangements associated with acute kidney injury in experimental sepsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (AKI) is a significant problem in critically ill children and adults resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Fundamental mechanisms contributing to sepsis‐associated AKI are poorly understood.

Highly Tunable and Cell‐Remodelable Thiol‐ene Alginate‐Peptide Crosslinked Hydrogels to Recreate Cellular and Organoid Microenvironments for Biofabrication

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Norbornene‐functionalized alginate is crosslinked with a di‐thiolated peptide sequence cleavable by cell‐secreted matrix metalloproteinases and decorated with cell‐adhesion peptides upon exposure to UV. Thyroid follicles, endometrial and intestinal organoids are encapsulated in a gentle manner with high cell viability and correct phenotype ...

The Antidiabetic Agent Sodium Tungstate Induces Abnormal Glycogen Accumulation in Renal Proximal Tubules from Diabetic IRS2-Knockout Mice

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2018
The kidney is an insulin-sensitive organ involved in glucose homeostasis. One major effect of insulin is to induce glycogen storage in the liver and muscle.

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

open access: yesNature 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.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Notch activates Wnt-4 signalling to control medio-lateral patterning of the pronephros [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Previous studies have highlighted a role for the Notch signalling pathway during pronephrogenesis in the amphibian Xenopus laevis, and in nephron development in the mammalian metanephros, yet a mechanism for this function remains elusive.
