Metabolic Clearance and Production Rates of Human Thyrotropin [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1974
Metabolic clearance (MCR) and production rates (PR) of human thyrotropin (hTSH) were determined by the constant infusion to equilibrium method 57 times in 55 patients. 16 control patients had a mean hTSH MCR of 50.7 ml/min. The mean hTSH MCR was significantly (P < 0.02) higher in 19 euthyroid men (51.6 ml/min) than in 12 euthyroid women (43.0 ml/min ...

Long-term high-fat diet increases glymphatic activity in the hypothalamus in mice

Scientific Reports, 2023
Obesity affects millions of people worldwide and is associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline. The glymphatic system is a brain-wide metabolic waste clearance system, dysfunction of which is linked to dementia.

Decreased maximal cortisol secretion rate in patients with cirrhosis: Relation to disease severity

JHEP Reports, 2021
Background & Aims: Hepatic enzymes play a major role in the metabolic elimination of cortisol, and reduced rates of cortisol clearance have been consistently observed in patients with chronic liver disease.

Effect of Acute Thermal Stress Exposure on Ecophysiological Traits of the Mediterranean Sponge Chondrilla nucula: Implications for Climate Change

Biology, 2023
As a result of climate change, the Mediterranean Sea has been exposed to an increase in the frequency and intensity of marine heat waves in the last decades, some of which caused mass mortality events of benthic invertebrates, including sponges.

Metabolic clearance rate and production rate of calcitriol in uremia

Kidney International, 1989
We have previously demonstrated that while both normal humans and dogs tightly control serum calcitriol levels after 25(OH)D administration, anephric humans and 5/6 nephrectomized dogs significantly increase circulating 1,25(OH)2D when supraphysiological concentrations of 25(OH)D are reached in serum.

Intraoperative lactate level and lactate clearance is associated with long-term mortality in liver transplant recipients [PDF]

Anesthesia and Pain Medicine
Background Hyperlactatemia has been associated with poor outcomes in various clinical settings including liver transplantation (LT). However, the impact of intraoperative lactate levels and lactate clearance on long-term mortality in LT recipients ...

Measuring the Pharmacokinetic Properties of Drugs with a Novel Surgical Rat Model

Journal of Investigative Surgery, 2017
Purpose/aim of the study: The pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters in animal models can help optimize novel candidate drugs prior to human trials. However, due to the complexity of pharmacokinetic experiments, their use is limited in academia.

Population pharmacokinetic analysis of enrofloxacin and its active metabolite ciprofloxacin after intravenous injection to cats with reduced kidney function

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2023
Background It is unknown if enrofloxacin accumulates in plasma of cats with reduced kidney function. Hypothesis To determine if enrofloxacin and its active metabolite ciprofloxacin have reduced clearance in azotemic cats.

Metabolic Clearance Rate of Oxytocin in Human Subjects

Folia Endocrinologica Japonica, 1989
Oxytocin metabolism seems to occur mainly in the kidney and the liver. Placental cystine amino peptidase (CAP), which inactivates oxytocin by cleavage of the bond between the N-terminal cystine residue and adjacent tyrosine, rises progressively with advancing gestation. The role of CAP in oxytocin metabolism is not clear.

Metabolic clearance rate of radioiodinated human calcitonin in man [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1970
The characteristics of the disappearance of radioiodinated synthetic human calcitonin from plasma have been studied in man. After single injection the disappearance curve was multiexponential. The number of exponentials of the theoretical curve fitting the best with the experimental data varied individually. Metabolic clearance rate was determined both
