Bilateral native nephrectomy improves renal isograft function in rats [PDF]
Bilateral native nephrectomy improves renal isograft function in rats. Bilateral native nephrectomy has been suggested to improve renal allograft survival in man. This effect may be most prominent in patients experiencing acute tubular necrosis following

Noninvasive characterization of renal artery blood flow
Noninvasive characterization of renal artery blood flow variables in the human has not been reported. Using a unique dual-frequency real-time two-dimensional echo Doppler (Duplex scanner) that was calibrated in vitro, we characterized renal artery blood flow patterns in 16 normal subjects (6 females).

Bioresorbable and Wireless Rechargeable Implanted Na‐ion Battery for Temporary Medical Devices
An all‐solid‐state bioresorbable Na‐ion battery is developed, composed entirely of bio‐eliminable materials. In vivo and ex vivo tests confirmed harmless disintegration of this implanted battery. Lifetime of the implanted battery can be precisely controlled by adjusting the dissolvable encapsulation layer's thickness.

Reduced CD40L expression on ex vivo activated CD4+T-lymphocytes from patients with excellent renal allograft function measured with a rapid whole blood flow cytometry procedure [PDF]
Background: The CD40-CD40L (CD154) costimulatory pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of kidney allograft rejection. In renal transplant biopsies, CD4+ CD40L+ graft-infiltrating cells were detected during chronic rejection in contrast to ...

THE CONTROL OF RENAL BLOOD FLOW AND GLOMERULAR FILTRATION IN NORMAL MAN.
This report is concerned with the effective renal blood flow and rate of glomerular filtration in normal man, as determined by the diodrast and inulin clearances (26) during diuresis and during the action of phlorizin, adrenin, caffeine, nitrite, and ...

Graphene‐based materials are attracting considerable interest for biomedical applications. Analysis of their biocompatibility is required before their clinical translation, and swine represents an excellent close‐to‐human model. This study evaluates the toxicological and immunological impact of pristine graphene and graphene oxide through a compendium ...

Global Sensitivity Analysis in a Mathematical Model of the Renal Interstitium [PDF]
The pressure in the renal interstitium is an important factor for normal kidney function. Here we develop a computational model of the rat kidney and use it to investigate the relationship between arterial blood pressure and interstitial fluid pressure. In addition, we investigate how tissue flexibility influences this relationship.

Kidney Fibrosis In Vitro and In Vivo Models: Path Toward Physiologically Relevant Humanized Models
This review discusses kidney diseases with a focus on kidney fibrosis and the models currently used. It highlights the limitations of animal and 2D in vitro models in replicating human kidney anatomy and physiology. Consequently, there is a significant need for humanized 3D in vitro models, such as 3D cell aggregates, membranes and hydrogels, on‐chip ...
