Effects of ATRAP in Renal Proximal Tubules on Angiotensin‐Dependent Hypertension
Background We have previously shown that ATRAP (angiotensin II receptor–associated protein; Agtrap) interacts with AT1R (angiotensin II type 1 receptor) and promotes constitutive internalization of AT1R so as to inhibit hyperactivation of its downstream ...

Apical endosomes isolated from kidney collecting duct principal cells lack subunits of the proton pumping ATPase. [PDF]
Endocytic vesicles that are involved in the vasopressin-stimulated recycling of water channels to and from the apical membrane of kidney collecting duct principal cells were isolated from rat renal papilla by differential and Percoll density gradient ...

A comprehensive proteome and phosphoproteome atlas across nine organs of the Chinese hamster
This study presents the first comprehensive proteome and phosphoproteome atlas of the Chinese hamster across nine organs (heart, liver, lung, kidney, spleen, cerebral cortex, skeletal muscle, stomach, and testis or ovary). A total of 14 219 proteins were identified in the proteome, with 11 828 phosphorylated proteins and 47 122 phosphorylation sites ...

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

A single-nucleus RNA-sequencing pipeline to decipher the molecular anatomy and pathophysiology of human kidneys [PDF]
Defining cellular and molecular identities within the kidney is necessary to understand its organization and function in health and disease. Here we demonstrate a reproducible method with minimal artifacts for single-nucleus Droplet-based RNA sequencing (

A novel delta current method for transport stoichiometry estimation. [PDF]
BackgroundThe ion transport stoichiometry (q) of electrogenic transporters is an important determinant of their function. q can be determined by the reversal potential (Erev) if the transporter under study is the only electrogenic transport mechanism or ...

Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

Ursolic Acid Alleviates Orchitis via Modulating Ferroptosis in Peritubular Myoid Cells of Testis
Ursolic acid modulates key ferroptosis‐related pathways in the peritubular myoid cells of the testis in forest musk deer. ABSTRACT Chronic stress adversely affects reproductive health, increasing susceptibility to pathologies such as orchitis. Additionally, the maintenance of iron homeostasis is essential for preserving the function of the testicles ...

Discharge-generated electrical fields and electrical tree structures [PDF]
The discharge-avalanche (D-A) model for electrical tree propagation in polymers is founded entirely upon basic physical concepts. Electrical discharges in an existing tree structure are taken to raise the electrical field in the polymer both along the ...

Exosomal Transfer From Human Renal Proximal Tubule Cells To Distal Tubule And Collecting Duct Cells
Objectives Exosomes are 50-90 nm extracellular membrane particles that may mediate trans-cellular communication between cells and tissues. We have reported that human urinary exosomes contain miRNA that are biomarkers for salt sensitivity and inverse ...
