Nephrectomy for a case of intrarenal dermoid cyst: was it an appropriate decision? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Dermoid cyst in a kidney is rarely seen. We report a case of intrarenal dermoid cyst which mimics malignant renal tumour and discuss the dilemma in managing this ...

Infectious Diseases Associated With Renal Homotransplantation: I. Incidence, Types, and Predisposing Factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1964
Infectious diseases occurred in 26 of 30 renal homotransplantation patients and contributed to eight of the 12 deaths in this series. There were 52 infections, 17 occurring before and 35 after transplantation.

PBRM1 Deficiency Reshapes an Immune Suppressive Microenvironment Through Epigenetic Tuning of PBRM1‐KDM5C‐IL6 Axis in ccRCC

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PBRM1 ranks as the second most commonly mutated gene in ccRCC. This study reveals that PBRM1 loss promotes an immunosuppressive microenvironment by elevating M2 TAMs via the KDM5C–IL‐6 axis. These M2 TAMs, along with CAFs, form a barrier that excludes CD8+ T cells. Targeting IL‐6 synergizes with anti‐PD1 therapy, offering a promising strategy for PBRM1‐

Polycystic Horseshoe Kidney: A Rare Coexistence as a Challenge for the Surgeons. Case Report

open access: yesActa Medica Lituanica, 2022
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) with concomitant horseshoe kidney is an extremely rare entity. In this case, we report a 45-year-old male patient with ADPKD and a horseshoe kidney who demonstrated hypertension, urological ...

Opioid Consumption After Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy in Early Postoperative Recovery Phase: A Retrospective Cohort Study. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiol Scand
ABSTRACT Background Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy is a relatively common surgical procedure in the treatment of renal cancer and kidney anomalies. Postoperative pain is a major challenge among these patients. Although alternate solutions to conduct analgesia have been researched lately, the pain management of nephrectomy patients still relies on ...

Contribution of Gli1+ Adventitial Stem Cells to Smooth Muscle Cells in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Gli1+ adventitial stem cells (ASCs) have been thought to generate smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerosis. Using a dual‐recombinase lineage tracing to exclude ectopic labeling, Wang et al. found that Gli1+ ASCs do not contribute to SMCs in atherosclerotic plaques.

SETDB2 Mitigates Podocyte Dysfunction in Diabetic Kidney Disease Through Epigenetic Silencing of SMAD3

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SETDB2 epigenetically represses Smad3 transcription by increasing H3K9me3 enrichment at its promoter, thereby mitigating podocyte dysfunction in DKD. The transcription factor TCF21 binds directly to the Setdb2 promoter and enhances its expression in podocytes. Abstract Podocyte dysfunction represents both an early pathological hallmark and a key driver
