PKR activation-induced mitochondrial dysfunction in HIV-transgenic mice with nephropathy

open access: yeseLife
HIV disease remains prevalent in the USA and chronic kidney disease remains a major cause of morbidity in HIV-1-positive patients. Host double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-activated protein kinase (PKR) is a sensor for viral dsRNA, including HIV-1.

Interleukin-1β sequesters hypoxia inducible factor 2α to the primary cilium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The primary cilium coordinates signalling in development, health and disease. Previously we have shown that the cilium is essential for the anabolic response to loading and the inflammatory response to interleukin-1β (IL-1β).

Comparison of severe maternal morbidity between pregnancy with subclinical hypothyroidism and overt hypothyroidism

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In this cross‐sectional study, pregnancy with subclinical hypothyroidism was associated with higher rates of severe maternal morbidity at delivery compared with overt hypothyroidism, including cardio‐pulmonary morbidity and eclampsia. This association was especially seen among younger age, Black individuals, prepregnant hypertension, and obesity ...

CRISPR-Cas9 system in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: a comprehensive review [PDF]

open access: yesChildhood Kidney Diseases
Genetic kidney diseases are caused by mutations in specific genes that significantly affect kidney development and function. Although the underlying pathogenic genes of many kidney diseases have been identified, an understanding of their mechanisms and ...

Emerging key roles for P2X receptors in the kidney [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
P2X ionotropic non-selective cation channels are expressed throughout the kidney and are activated in a paracrine or autocrine manner following the binding of extracellular ATP and related extracellular nucleotides. Whilst there is a wealth of literature

Machine Learning‐Based Prediction of Life‐Threatening Complications During Hemodialysis in Hospitalized Patients With Poor General Conditions

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A machine learning model using predialysis data predicted sudden events during or after hemodialysis with high accuracy (auROC: 0.889). The key predictors included emergency hospitalization, recent surgery, high heart rate, low albumin levels, and high CRP.

Rare Combination of Phenotypes of Karyomegalic Interstitial Nephritis and Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease in an Omani Child

open access: yesOman Medical Journal
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease is one of the most prevalent inherited cystic kidney diseases in infants and children, common in highly consanguineous societies such as Oman. Karyomegalic interstitial nephritis is a rare cause of hereditary

Autophagy in Chronic Kidney Diseases

open access: yesCells, 2019
Autophagy is a cellular recycling process involving self-degradation and reconstruction of damaged organelles and proteins. Current evidence suggests that autophagy is critical in kidney physiology and homeostasis.

Generation of Mice Harboring Bicc1 Conditional Null Alleles. [PDF]

open access: yesGenesis
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.

The polycystic kidney disease 1 gene encodes a 14 kb transcript and lies within a duplicated region on chromosome 16 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a common genetic disorder that frequently results in renal fallure due to progressive cyst development. The major locus, PKD1, maps to 16p13.3.
