Abstract Aims Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are the cornerstone of modern oncology; however, side effects such as ICI‐related myocarditis (irM) can be fatal. Recently, Bonaca proposed criteria for irM; however, it is unknown if they correlate well with cardiovascular (CV) ICI‐related adverse events.

Low-Salt Diet Induces Claudin-3 Expression and Drives Adaptive Changes in Collecting Duct of Claudin-3-Deficient Mice. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aim Renal sodium reabsorption occurs through both transcellular and paracellular pathways. Tight junction proteins play a key role in mediating paracellular transport. The collecting duct is critical for the fine tuning of sodium balance and is highly responsive to changes in dietary salt intake.
