Renal nerve stimulation modulates renal blood flow in a frequency-dependent manner. [PDF]
Background Chronic overactivity of the renal nerves is a key pathophysiological attribute of drug-resistant hypertension. Indeed, catheter-based renal denervation can lower blood pressure by severing the brain-kidney (efferent nerves) and kidney-brain ...

TRPV1 protects renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in diet-induced obese mice by enhancing CGRP release and increasing renal blood flow. [PDF]
Background Obesity is a major risk factor for end-stage renal disease. Using transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 knockout (TRPV1−/−) mice, we tested the hypothesis that TRPV1 protects against obesity-induced exacerbation of renal ischemia ...

Simulation and Analyses of Turbulent Flow in Different Phases of Stenosed Renal Artery [PDF]
This study concerns the two-dimensional structure computational results of renal artery stenosis. In this paper, the turbulent flow of the stenosed vessel is stimulated and correlates the different stages of stenosis with each other.

Background Abnormal renal hemodynamic responses to salt‐loading are thought to contribute to salt‐sensitive (SS) hypertension. However, this is based largely on studies in anesthetized animals, and little data are available in conscious SS and salt ...

The renal blood flow reserve in healthy humans and patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease measured by positron emission tomography using [15O]H2O. [PDF]
Background Microvascular function plays an important role in ARVD (atherosclerotic renovascular disease). RFR (renal flow reserve), the capacity of renal vasculature to dilate, is known to reflect renal microvascular function.

PHARMACOLOGICAL CORRECTION OF INTERCEPT HEMODYNAMICS IN ACUTE KIDNEY DAMAGE (PART 1) [PDF]
Introduction: Development of vasoconstriction of kidney arterioles and reduction of renal blood flow is one of the main mechanism of acute kidney injury (AKI) formation. Methods for evaluation of intrarenal hemodynamics status are rather limited. Evident

Acute kidney injury is common, with ~13 million cases and 1.7 million deaths/year worldwide. A major cause is renal ischaemia, typically following cardiac surgery, renal transplant or severe haemorrhage.

Effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) on a Model of Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion in Rats. [PDF]
Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury is a major cause of acute renal failure, causing renal cell death, a permanent decrease of renal blood flow, organ dysfunction and chronic kidney disease.

THE ROLE OF L-TYPE CALCIUM CHANNELS IN THE MEDIATION OF FAST OSCILLATION OF ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE AND RENAL BLOOD FLOW IN RATS [PDF]
The investigation of dynamic characteristics of blood pressure and renal blood flow provides detailed information about the fast regulatory mechanisms involved in arterial blood pressure (ABP) and renal blood flow (RBF) autoregulation.
