Generation of interspecies limited chimeric nephrons using a conditional nephron progenitor cell replacement system

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Animal fetuses and embryos may have applications in the generation of human organs. Progenitor cells may be an appropriate cell source for regenerative organs because of their safety and availability.

The relationship between renal warm ischemia time and glomerular loss. An experimental study in a pig model [PDF]

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2017
Purpose: To investigate the glomerular number after different warm ischemia times. Methods: Thirty two pigs were assigned into four groups. Three groups (G10, G20, and G30) were treated with 10, 20, and 30 minutes of left renal warm ischemia.

Anatrophic nephrotomy as nephron-sparing approach for complete removal of intraparenchymal renal tumors

open access: yesInternational Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2012
OBJECTIVE: Partial nephrectomy for small kidney tumors has increased in the last decades, and the approach to non-palpable endophytic tumors became a challenge, with larger chances of positive margins or complications.

Kidney regeneration: common themes from the embryo to the adult [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The vertebrate kidney has an inherent ability to regenerate following acute damage. Successful regeneration of the injured kidney requires the rapid replacement of damaged tubular epithelial cells and reconstitution of normal tubular function ...

Modeling of Kidney Hemodynamics: Probability-Based Topology of an Arterial Network. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2016
Through regulation of the extracellular fluid volume, the kidneys provide important long-term regulation of blood pressure. At the level of the individual functional unit (the nephron), pressure and flow control involves two different mechanisms that ...

Mathematical Model of Ammonia Handling in the Rat Renal Medulla [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The kidney is one of the main organs that produces ammonia and release it into the circulation. Under normal conditions, between 30 and 50% of the ammonia produced in the kidney is excreted in the urine, the rest being absorbed into the systemic ...
