PATIENT WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE. RATIONAL CHOICE OF THERAPY
The theory of chronic hyperactivation of neurohormonal systems, in particular, sympathoadrenal and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, is the basis of modern concepts of the pathogenesis of heart failure. The medicinal blocking of these two systems has proved

A combinatorial approach of Proteomics and Systems Biology in unravelling the mechanisms of acute kidney injury (AKI): involvement of NMDA receptor GRIN1 in murine AKI [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent condition in hospitalised patients undergoing major surgery or the critically ill and is associated with increased mortality.

Hypertension in mice lacking 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 [PDF]
Deficiency of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) in humans leads to the syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess (SAME), in which cortisol illicitly occupies mineralocorticoid receptors, causing sodium retention, hypokalemia, and ...

The role of aldosterone in the development of atrial fibrillation: modern understanding of problem
The review of literature presents modern ideas about the role of aldosterone in the development and maintenance of atrial fibrillation. It is shown that hormone takes part in all stages of the electrophysiological and structural atrial remodeling ...

Glucocorticoid feedback paradox: a homage to Mary Dallman
As the end product of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, the glucocorticoid hormones cortisol and corticosterone coordinate circadian activities, stress-coping, and adaptation to change.

Effects of environmental enrichment on behavioral responses to novelty, learning, and memory, and the circadian rhythm in cortisol in growing pigs [PDF]
Previously we showed that pigs reared in an enriched environment had higher baseline salivary cortisol concentrations during the light period than pigs reared under barren conditions.

Experimental rat models of chronic allograft nephropathy: a review [PDF]
Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) is the leading cause of late allograft loss after renal transplantation (RT), which continues to remain an unresolved problem. A rat model of CAN was first described in 1969 by White et al. Although the rat model of RT
