Seven days of mixed‐method heat acclimation improved markers of cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory strain during exercise‐heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A mixed‐method heat acclimation (HA) protocol may optimise performance by supporting the training taper while promoting thermal adaptation; however, the impact on cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory adjustments to protect health is unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of a mixed‐method heat protocol on physiological responses, including

Influence of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor ramipril on indicators of tubular kidney lesion in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis

Current Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2020
To research and deepen the understanding of the links between morphological tubular kidney lesion parameters and serum markers – neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and interleukin-18 (IL-18), in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis ...

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

Effect of foot immersion and neck cooling on renal, intestinal, immune and inflammatory markers in older adults exposed to extreme heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults with reduced thermoregulatory capabilities are increasingly at risk of heat‐related pathophysiological outcomes (e.g., acute kidney injury, heatstroke) due to increasingly frequent, prolonged and intense heatwaves. Foot immersion and neck cooling have been proposed as practical, non‐electrical cooling strategies for protecting ...

Serum Levels and Placental Expression of NGAL in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Objectives. The aim was to investigate neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels in the serum and term placentas and its potential role in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods.

A Review and Future Perspective on Renal Outcome Definitions in Lupus Nephritis

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
Lupus nephritis (LN) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus, yet the lack of standardized definitions for renal outcomes hinders effective diagnosis, prognosis, treatment personalization, comparisons across trials, and interpretable trial endpoints.

Novel early markers of chronic kidney disease

Pediatria i Medycyna Rodzinna, 2019
Chronic kidney disease is an irreversible kidney damage caused by structural or functional renal impairment and persisting for more than 3 months. It is usually accompanied by albuminuria, proteinuria, abnormal histopathological and imaging findings as ...

T Cell‐Independent Role of PD‐L1 in Kidney Repair: Mitigation of Tubular DNA Damage via PD‐L1/BRCA1 Interaction Following AKI

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 40, 17 July 2026.
PD‐L1 is primarily expressed in renal tubules and upregulated in both murine models of AKI and renal biopsy samples from patients with AKI. PD‐L1 can promote adaptive TECs repair through interacting with BRCA1, independent of its canonical immunomodulatory function of T cells, and PD‐L1 supplementation may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for

α7nAChR agonist GTS‐21 ameliorates sepsis‐induced acute kidney injury via MEF2/PGC‐1α/HO‐1 axis in mice

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This diagram illustrates opposing pathways regulating AKI (acute kidney injury). The left pathway shows LPS/TLR4 triggering mitochondrial damage (low MMP, Cyt C release, ROS) leading to apoptosis. The right pathway shows α7nAChR agonists activating MEF2 to upregulate PGC‐1α/HO‐1, promoting mitochondrial biogenesis and inhibiting injury, highlighting ...
