Regulation of nephron progenitor cell lifespan and nephron endowment

Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2022
Low nephron number - resulting, for example, from prematurity or developmental anomalies - is a risk factor for the development of hypertension, chronic kidney disease and kidney failure. Considerable interest therefore exists in the mechanisms that regulate nephron endowment and contribute to the premature cessation of nephrogenesis following preterm ...

Crystallization in the nephron

Urological Research, 1999
Recent experimental studies on the crystallization of calcium salts at different nephron levels support the theory that the initial formation of calcium concrements starts with an intratubular crystallization of calcium phosphate (CaP) and calcium oxalate (CaOx).

Nonlinear Phenomena in Nephron-Nephron Interaction

2003
By controling the excretion of water and salts, the kidneys play an important role in regulating the blood pressure and maintaining a proper environment for the cells of the body. This control depends to a large extent on mechanisms that are associated with the individual functional unit, the nephron. However, a variety of cooperative phenomena arising

Suicide of the nephron

The Lancet, 2001
There are various causes of renal disease. However, progressive renal disease is closely linked to the degree and duration of proteinuria. At first sight, this seems a perverse response in which a compromised organ unleashes a coordinated series of reactions that exacerbate the damage already done.

LOWER NEPHRON SYNDROME

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1949
Excerpt The relatively high frequency with which the lower nephron syndrome, a highly fatal disease state, is observed clinically makes imperative a thorough acquaintance with the clinical picture....

Nephron‐sparing surgery

BJU International, 2007
Nephron-sparing surgery is increasingly being used to treat patients with solid renal tumors in both adults and children. A contemporary review of the indications, techniques and outcomes is presented for nephron-sparing approaches to primary renal tumors during childhood.

Ciliar functions in the nephron

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2009
The primary cilium is a microtubule-based nonmotile organelle that is found on most cells in the mammalian body. Once regarded as a vestigial organelle, it has been recently shown to play unforeseen roles in mammalian physiology and tissue homeostasis.

Kidney Nephron Determination

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
The nephron is a multifunctional filtration device equipped with an array of sophisticated sensors. For appropriate physiological function in the human and mouse, nephrons must be stereotypically arrayed in large numbers, and this essential structural property that defines the kidney is determined during its fetal development.

Nephron Algorithm Optimization

International Journal of Applied Metaheuristic Computing, 2016
A new Meta heuristic algorithm inspired of the biologic nephron performance for optimization of objective functions in Np-hard problems is introduced. The complexity of the problems increases with their size, and hence their solution space increases exponentially.

Metabolic requirements of the nephron

Pediatric Nephrology, 2018
The mammalian kidney is a complex organ that has several metabolically active cell types to aid in waste filtration, salt-water balance, and electrolyte homeostasis in the body. These functions are done primarily through the nephron, which relies on strict regulation of various metabolic pathways.
