Mapping the hemodynamic effects of terlipressin in patients with hepatorenal syndrome using advanced magnetic resonance imaging

open access: yesJHEP Reports
Background & aims: Terlipressin improves renal function in ∼40% of patients with hepatorenal syndrome–acute kidney injury (HRS-AKI). Nonetheless, the pathophysiological mechanisms of terlipressin remain unclear.

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

Nuclear medicine: investigation of renal function in small animal medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Kidney function investigations in veterinary medicine are traditionally based on blood analysis (blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine concentration) and / or urinalysis (urine specific gravity, protein-to-creatinine ratio or fractional ...

An Intact Kidney Slice Model to Investigate Vasa Recta Properties and Function in situ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Medullary blood flow is via vasa recta capillaries, which possess contractile pericytes. In vitro studies using isolated descending vasa recta show that pericytes can constrict/dilate descending vasa recta when vasoactive substances are ...
