Current Status of Kidney Xenotransplantation in Basic Research

Organ Medicine, EarlyView.
Kidney xenotransplantation is a potential solution to the organ shortage for end‐stage kidney disease. This review systematically elaborates on the application advances of donor pig gene editing technologies, the molecular mechanisms and regulatory strategies of xenogeneic immune rejection, and the optimization approaches of immune compatibility ...

Zero gravity and cardiovascular homeostasis. The relationship between endogenous hyperprolactinemia and plasma aldosterone [PDF]

Prolactin, thyrotropin and aldosterone were measured by radioimmunoassay and plasma renin activity by the radioimmunoassay of angiotensin I in normal women before and after the intravenous injection of 200 micrograms of thyrotropin releasing hormone ...

Renal‐vascular axis: unmasking its role in vascular endothelial growth factor‐inhibitor vascular toxicity in cancer patients

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Vascular toxicity is a growing concern in cancer patients receiving vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (VEGFi) therapy, posing a significant threat to patient prognosis. While the primary mechanism of VEGFi‐induced vascular toxicity is linked to redox‐sensitive reactions that disrupt vascular tone, leading to hypertension and ...

A comprehensive review of cancer‐induced cardiac wasting

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer is frequently accompanied by cachexia, a systemic syndrome characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, with or without loss of fat mass. Increasing evidence indicates that cancer can also induce cardiac muscle wasting, which is associated with structural cardiac remodelling, impaired contractile function and the development of ...

The Blood Plasma Aldosterone Concentration in Stage II Hypertension Patients with Comorbid Chronic Coronary Artery Disease, Frequent Ventricular Extrasystoles and Different Clinical Indicators

Львівський клінічний вісник
Introduction. Diagnosis of hyperaldosteronism (HD) makes it possible to prescribe specific treatment, which may include mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, such as spironolactone and eplerenone contributing to improvement of the therapeutic complex.

Hypercortisolism and primary aldosteronism caused by bilateral adrenocortical adenomas: a case report

BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2019
Background Co-existing Cushing’s syndrome and primary aldosteronism caused by bilateral adrenocortical adenomas, secreting cortisol and aldosterone, respectively, have rarely been reported.

Apparent Bilateral Aldosterone Suppression During Adrenal Vein Sampling: An Artefact of the Liaison Chemiluminescence Immunoassay and Other Causes Revealed by Comparisons With Another Commercial Immunoassay and Mass Spectrometry

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Subtyping of primary aldosteronism usually requires adrenal vein sampling (AVS). Interpretation can be compromised by apparent bilateral aldosterone suppression (ABAS), which we hypothesised reflects an artefact of the Liaison immunoassay of aldosterone.

A Rare Aldosterone-Producing Adenoma Detected by 68Ga-pentixafor PET-CT: A Case Report and Literature Review

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Context: Primary aldosteronism represents an important and common cause of hypertension and is characterized by autonomous aldosterone secretion that results in severe hypertension and hypokalemia.

Physiological Basis of Sex Differences in Human Performance and Exercise‐Associated Pathology

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of sex differences in human physical performance is well‐established and shaped by distinct endocrine, anatomical and physiological mechanisms. Despite sustained advances, our understanding of how inherent biological factors drive variations in exercise capacity and related pathologies is still developing.
