Glucocorticoids Alter Bone Microvascular Barrier via MAPK/Connexin43 Mechanisms
Osteoporosis induced by Glucocorticoids (GCs) is a common complication of long‐term GC use in patients with inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, often leading to an increased fracture risk. A 3D bicellular endo‐osteo microfluidic platform is developed to explore pathogenic mechanisms underlying GCs‐induced osteoporosis, highlighting a novel MAPK ...

Physiology of renal glucose handling via SGLT1, SGLT2 and GLUT2. [PDF]
The concentration of glucose in plasma is held within narrow limits (4-10 mmol/l), primarily to ensure fuel supply to the brain. Kidneys play a role in glucose homeostasis in the body by ensuring that glucose is not lost in the urine.

Aspects of particle production in isospin asymmetric matter
The production/absorption rate of particles in compressed and heated asymmetric matter is studied using a Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) transport model with an isospin dependent collision term.

Analysis of efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors using semi-mechanistic model
Renal sodium-dependent glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) is one of the most promising targets for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Two SGLT2 inhibitors, dapagliflozin and canagliflozin, have already been approved for use in USA and Europe; several ...

Background: Cr is secreted by the proximal tubules and thus Cr clearance (Ccr) can overestimate inulin clearance (Cin). However, in some cases, Ccr can even underestimate Cin. This suggests that Cr could be reabsorbed in the tubuli.

Claudins in the Renal Collecting Duct [PDF]
The renal collecting duct fine-tunes urinary composition, and thereby, coordinates key physiological processes, such as volume/blood pressure regulation, electrolyte-free water reabsorption, and acid-base homeostasis.

Diuretic Agents and Glucose Reabsorption
Acetazolamide, chlorothiazide, ethacrynic acid and furosemide were infused to glucose loaded dogs. Glucose reasorption was unchanged after acetazolamide and chlorothiazide. Ethacrynic acid depressed glucose reabsorption significantly. Furosemide caused a modest decrease in glucose reabsorption which was not significant when the control values were ...

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to
