Advances in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Clinical Review
Kidney Medicine, 2020 Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a multiorgan disorder resulting in fluid-filled cyst formation in the kidneys and other systems. The replacement of kidney parenchyma with an ever-increasing volume of cysts eventually leads to kidney failure. Recently,

Combined liver-kidney transplantation and the effect of preformed lymphocytotoxic antibodies [PDF]
, 1994 Thirty-eight sequentially placed liver and kidney allografts were evaluated with respect to patient and graft survival, and the influence of preformed lymphocytotoxic antibodies was analysed.

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Nephrectomies are major surgeries often required in ADPKD for symptom control, removal of septic/malignant foci, and to create space for renal transplantation. Whether ADPKD patients should proceed with nephrectomy/ies should be guided by patient characteristics, technical considerations and anticipated risks and benefits. Methods A

Lkb1 deficiency confers glutamine dependency in polycystic kidney disease
Nature Communications, 2018 Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a common genetic disorder characterized by the growth of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. Several studies reported that the serine-threonine kinase Lkb1 is dysregulated in PKD.

A narrative literature review about alpha‐lipoic acid role in dry eye and ocular surface disease
Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract Ocular surface diseases (OSD) include various conditions that affect the eye's surface, causing discomfort and pain. One such condition, dry eye disease (DED), is a multifactorial disorder that significantly impacts patients' quality of life, with prevalence rates ranging from 5% to 50% and higher incidence in women.

Apoptosis in polycystic kidney disease
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2011 Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death. It is a ubiquitous, controlled process consuming cellular energy and designed to avoid cytokine release despite activation of local immune cells, which clear the cell fragments. The process occurs during organ development and in maintenance of homeostasis.

Combined liver-kidney transplantation: Analysis of patients with preformed lymphocytotoxic antibody [PDF]
, 1988 In this report, we address combined liver-kidney transplantation, with particular attention to the apparent phenomenon of protection of kidney allografts to antibody mediated destruction by liver allografts.
