Serum Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor Levels in Resistant Hypertension

Turkish Journal of Nephrology
Background: Although the precise pathogenetic mechanisms remain incompletely elucidated, hypertension is characterized by endothelial damage and inflammation. The soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is an inflammatory biomarker that

Effects of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors on Water and Sodium Metabolism

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors exert hypoglycemic and diuretic effects by inhibiting the absorption of sodium and glucose from the proximal tubule.

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

The Role of Renin in the Exaggerated Natriuresis of Hypertension [PDF]

Circulation, 1970
Hypertensive patients were classified according to their plasma renin response when challenged by the potent diuretics, ethacrynic acid (50 mg IV), or furosemide (40 mg IV), into renin-unresponsive and renin-responsive groups. In the latter plasma renin activity rose by at least 0.5 ng of angiotensin/ml/hr after the diuretic.

Oral Bioinspired Peroxisome‐Engineered Probiotics for Modulating Gut Microbiota Homeostasis and Alleviating Cardiac Chemotherapy Toxicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed an oral bioinspired peroxisome‐engineered probiotic (BPEP) by anchoring lipid‐encapsulated ruthenium nanozymes onto Escherichia coli Nissle 1917, utilizing probiotics to deliver nanozymes to the intestinal barrier for reactive oxygen species/reactive nitrogen species elimination, tight junction restoration, and gut microbiota ...

Angiotensin II‐induced natriuresis is attenuated in knockout mice lacking the receptors for tumor necrosis factor‐α

Physiological Reports, 2021
Intravenous infusion of relatively higher doses of angiotensin II (AngII) elicits natriuresis as opposed to its usual anti‐natruretic response. As AngII can induce tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNFα) production which elicits natriuresis via its action on TNFα

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

Renal effects of uroguanylin and guanylin in vivo

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Uroguanylin and guanylin are newly discovered endogenous heat-stable peptides that bind to and activate a membrane bound guanylyl cyclase signaling receptor (termed guanylyl cyclase C; GC-C).

CK2α Deficiency Drives Myocardial Fibrosis via Desmin‐Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CK2α preserves mitochondrial homeostasis by phosphorylating Desmin to recruit Cryab, ensuring proper filament assembly. CK2α deficiency disrupts this interaction, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic shifts, bioenergetic failure, and oxidative stress—ultimately establishing a pro‐fibrotic environment that drives cardiac fibrosis.

The mechanism of the natriuresis of fasting. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1975
This study tests the hypothesis than obligatory cation coverage of metabolicaly generated anions is the mechanism for the sodium diuresis of fasting. Nine obese female subjects were equilibrated on a constant sodium and caloric intake and then fasted while sodium intake was maintianed.
