Crystallization and Stone Formation Inside the Nephron [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
A model is presented visualizing the events leading to calcium-salt, crystal- and stone-formation inside the nephron. For each nephron segment, handling of urine components relevant to stone formation is considered and urine composition determined.

Relationship among nephron number, cortical volume, and glomerular pressure in healthy kidney donors

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
Glomerular hypertension is a critical factor in kidney disease progression. Traditionally, nephron number (Nglom) was considered a determinant of glomerular hemodynamics, but emerging evidence suggests a more substantial impact of renal structural ...

The Benefit of Anti-Inflammatory and Renal-Protective Dietary Ingredients on the Biological Processes of Aging in the Kidney

open access: yesBiology, 2018
One of the significant organ systems which decline in aging is the kidney. While the causes of age-associated decline in renal function are likely multifactorial, oxidative stress and inflammation are hypothesized to play important roles in the ...

Navigating the Complexity: A Comprehensive Review of GSK‐3 Inhibition in Regenerative Medicine

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycogen synthase kinase‐3 (GSK‐3) is a central regulator of numerous cellular signaling pathways, with critical roles in metabolism, proliferation, differentiation, and tissue regeneration. This review explores the multifaceted effects of pharmacological GSK‐3 inhibition across multiple body districts, focusing on its highly context‐dependent

Mapping the Knowledge Structure and Thematic Trends of Wilms Tumor: Insights From Text Mining

open access: yesOrgan Medicine, EarlyView.
This scientometric analysis of Wilms tumor research from 1945 to 2024 highlights United States research leadership, limited international collaboration, and emerging hotspots in biomarkers, nephron‐sparing surgery, and immunotherapy. ABSTRACT Background Wilms tumor (WT), also known as nephroblastoma, is one of the most common renal malignancies in ...

Notch is required for the formation of all nephron segments and primes nephron progenitors for differentiation

open access: yes, 2017
Notch signaling plays important roles during mammalian nephrogenesis. To investigate if Notch regulates nephron segmentation, we performed Notch loss-of-function and gain-of-function studies in developing nephrons in mice. Contrary to the previous notion

From cytokine storm to renal scarring in diabetic kidney disease: Biomarkers, risk stratification, and precision therapeutics

open access: yesPrecision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
Hyperglycemia‐driven cytokine activation initiates a sustained inflammatory cascade in diabetic kidney disease, promoting cellular injury and fibrogenic signaling. Integrating cytokine‐based biomarkers with risk stratification enables precision therapeutics that target inflammation and fibrosis, ultimately aiming to halt progression from early renal ...

Effect of Glutathione S‐Transferase and Metallothionein Polymorphisms on Mercury Levels and End‐Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) in Colombian Patients

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a link between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and environmental mercury (Hg) exposure. Colombia has a well‐documented history of artisanal and small‐scale gold mining, where Hg exposure affects miners and nearby riverside and urban populations. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of polymorphisms in

Autoradiography of the Isolated Nephron.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1959
SummaryA method is described in which the combination of microdissection and a stripping film technic has provided autoradiograms of the isolated nephron. Accurate localization of site of action of suitable tagged materials was obtained. For example, after injection of C14 Vit.
