The number of nephrons in different glomerular diseases [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Background The total number of nephrons has been measured mainly from post-mortem studies and only in selected populations. Data from living subjects are scanty, and direct comparisons among different glomerular diseases are lacking.

Low Birth Weight due to Intrauterine Growth Restriction and/or Preterm Birth: Effects on Nephron Number and Long-Term Renal Health

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, 2012
Epidemiological studies have clearly demonstrated a strong association between low birth weight and long-term renal disease. A potential mediator of this long-term risk is a reduction in nephron endowment in the low birth weight infant at the beginning ...

Nephron Patterning: Lessons from Xenopus, Zebrafish, and Mouse Studies

open access: yesCells, 2015
The nephron is the basic structural and functional unit of the vertebrate kidney. To ensure kidney functions, the nephrons possess a highly segmental organization where each segment is specialized for the secretion and reabsorption of particular solutes.

The cdx genes and retinoic acid control the positioning and segmentation of the zebrafish pronephros. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2007
Kidney function depends on the nephron, which comprises a blood filter, a tubule that is subdivided into functionally distinct segments, and a collecting duct. How these regions arise during development is poorly understood.

Neonatal high protein intake enhances neonatal growth without significant adverse renal effects in spontaneous IUGR piglets. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In humans, early high protein (HP) intake has been recommended to prevent postnatal growth restriction and complications of intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).

Response to Allopurinol and Febuxostat According to the Fractional Excretion of Urate in Men With Gout

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Body mass index (BMI), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and pretreatment urate levels have been reported to influence the urate‐lowering response to allopurinol. We investigated whether the fractional excretion of uric acid (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations.

An organ-derived extracellular matrix triggers in situ kidney regeneration in a preclinical model

open access: yesnpj Regenerative Medicine, 2022
It has not been considered that nephrons regenerate in adult mammals. We present that an organ-derived extracellular matrix in situ induces nephron regeneration in a preclinical model.

Recent advances in the modelling of renal function [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Differential equation models have become an indispensable tool in the effort towards a complete understanding of hypertonic urine formation. Recent advances in this field include the treatment of a kidney model as an inverse prob lern, the modelling of ...

A Human Kidney Tubuloid Model of Repeated Cisplatin‐Induced Cellular Senescence and Fibrosis for Drug Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Replicating aging and senescence‐related pathophysiological responses in kidney organoids remains a significant challenge. Human adult renal tubular organoid, tubuloids, are successfully developed recapitulating cellular senescence that is the central pathophysiological mechanism of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
