Interpretative Phenomenological Study Exploring Why People With Kidney Failure Say ‘No’ to a Kidney Transplant

Journal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To develop an in‐depth understanding of peoples' perceptions and experiences of decision‐making and reasons why they declined the opportunity of a kidney transplant. Design The Theory of Planned Behaviour informed the qualitative interpretative phenomenological analysis. Methods Semi‐structured interviews were conducted between August 2022

Growth‐regulating proteins differ between British seawater fish species, shedding light on their ecological adaptations

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

A novel PKD1 variant demonstrates a disease-modifying role in trans with a truncating PKD1 mutation in patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]

, 2015
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most common form of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) and occurs at a frequency of 1/800 to 1/1000 affecting all ethnic groups worldwide.

Rationale and design of the RESOLVE trial: lanreotide as a volume reducing treatment for polycystic livers in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

BMC Nephrology, 2012
Background A large proportion of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) suffers from polycystic liver disease. Symptoms arise when liver volume increases.

Photodynamic priming (PDP) targets platinum resistance from chronic perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure in ovarian cancer cells

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
PFAS are environmental contaminants that induce chemoresistance in ovarian cancer cells. This study evaluated BPD‐PDP or ALA‐PpIX‐PDP in combination with carboplatin or doxorubicin to overcome PFAS‐induced chemoresistance in two cell cohorts: (i) PFAS chronically‐exposed and (ii) PFAS outgrown cells (which underwent a “recovery period” after chronic ...

Case Report: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and Wilms’ tumor in infancy and childhood

Frontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is rare but one of the most common inherited kidney diseases. Normal kidney function is maintained until adulthood in most patients.

Mortality Patterns and Phenotypic Clusters in Trisomy 13: A Population‐Based Study From Japan

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 2, Page 329-338, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Trisomy 13, the third most common autosomal trisomy after trisomy 21 and trisomy 18, is associated with a significantly high infant mortality rate. However, large‐scale studies examining causes of death in trisomy 13 remain scarce. Therefore, we aimed to better understand the mortality patterns.

Heat Therapy: Targeting Health, Disease, and Disability

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 1, February 2026.
The predominance of evidence suggests heat therapy has an impact on all aspects of health and performance, but the drivers of that improvement, the extent to which they are improved, and the specific populations in which improvements manifest are far from completely understood.

Generation of Mice Harboring Bicc1 Conditional Null Alleles

genesis, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Bicaudal C1 (Bicc1) encodes an RNA‐binding protein critical for many organ development and epithelial tissue homeostasis. Bicc1 null mutations have been shown to lead to the development of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and death at an early prenatal stage.

CRISPR‐Cas9‐Generated TXNDC15 c.560delA Homozygous Mouse Model Exhibits Meckel–Gruber Syndrome Phenotype

genesis, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT To determine whether TXNDC15 variation causes Meckel–Gruber syndrome (MKS), we assessed the pathogenicity of the frameshift variant c.560delA. A CRISPR–Cas9 generated mouse model carrying the equivalent Txndc15 c.512delA mutation was analyzed at embryonic day 15.5.
