Supplementary Material for: Changing Protein Permeability with Nephron Loss: Evidence for a Human Remnant Nephron Effect

open access: yes, 2019
Background: If loss of functioning nephrons predisposes to glomerular barotrauma (a “remnant nephron” effect), then glomerular permeability should increase as glomerular filtration rate (GFR) falls, as is observed in animal models of nephron loss ...

GLOMERULAR NUMBER AND CAPILLARY DIMENSIONS IN THE NORMAL LAMB KIDNEY

open access: yesImage Analysis and Stereology, 2011
Reduced nephron endowment, either inherited or acquired, has been linked to adult renal pathology as well as hypertension. The sheep provides an excellent model for studying nephrogenesis and renal development because, as in humans, nephrogenesis is ...

Reporter-based fate mapping in human kidney organoids confirms nephron lineage relationships and reveals synchronous nephron formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nephron formation continues throughout kidney morphogenesis in both mice and humans. Lineage tracing studies in mice identified a self-renewing Six2-expressing nephron progenitor population able to give rise to the full complement of nephrons throughout ...

ppargc1a controls nephron segmentation during zebrafish embryonic kidney ontogeny

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Nephron segmentation involves a concert of genetic and molecular signals that are not fully understood. Through a chemical screen, we discovered that alteration of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling disrupts nephron segmentation ...

PGC-1α in Disease: Recent Renal Insights into a Versatile Metabolic Regulator

open access: yesCells, 2020
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1 alpha (PGC-1α) is perhaps best known as a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis and function.

Chinese Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of Finerenone in Geriatric Comorbidities

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) overactivation drives inflammation, oxidative stress, and fibrosis in the heart, kidneys, and vasculature, leading to cardiorenal dysfunction. MR signaling promotes hypertrophy, remodeling, and injury through pathways like oxidative stress and inflammation, resulting in vascular stiffness and progressive organ damage ...

The Hippo Pathway in Kidney Development

open access: yesEncyclopedia
The kidney, a complex organ crucial for a multitude of homeostatic functions, including the maintenance of fluid and electrolyte balance, removal of various metabolic waste products, and hormone production, undergoes intricate developmental processes to ...

Nephron-Sparing Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Interventional Radiology, 2014
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common malignancy with an increasing incidence.1 2 The classic triad of abdominal mass, hematuria, and flank pain accompanied by the various associated paraneoplastic syndromes (or the “internist's tumor”) are rare presentations of contemporary kidney cancer. With the current use and practice of modern abdominal imaging,

IgG Glycosylation‐Dependent CLEC7A Signaling Drives Podocyte Dysfunction in Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is a severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that can lead to end‐stage kidney disease and increased mortality. IgG from patients with LN displays abnormal glycosylation, contributing to podocyte injury.

Student‐identified barriers to histology learning and the perceived value of coloring as a multimodal educational strategy

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Histology is a visually complex and cognitively demanding subject often perceived as abstract, memorization‐heavy, and disconnected from clinical practice. Despite its foundational importance, histology is frequently under‐emphasized relative to gross anatomy and lacks interactive, multimodal resources tailored to its unique challenges.
