Effects of Vasodepressor vs. Vasopressor Arms of Renin Angiotensin System on Renal Hemodynamic Regulation in Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury; Sex Difference [PDF]
The exact mechanisms involved in acute renal injury (AKI) due to renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) are not fully understood, although it has been shown that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may play an important role in IR-associated AKI.

How should we treat acute kidney injury caused by renal congestion? [PDF]
Decreased kidney function is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality, and heart failure (HF) is a well-known risk factor for renal dysfunction.

Functional protection by acute phase proteins alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein and alpha(1)-antitrypsin against ischemia/reperfusion injury by preventing apoptosis and inflammation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Ischemia followed by reperfusion (I/R) causes apoptosis, inflammation, and tissue damage leading to organ malfunction. Ischemic preconditioning can protect against such injury.

Studies of the Renal Circulation [PDF]
This work represents an attempt to confirm reported observations of a juxtamedullary by-pass in the kidneys of animals subjected to various physiologic procedures and to shock. Rabbits injected with epinephrine, pitressin, renin and hypertensin, made hypotensive by bleeding and inhalation of amyl nitrite, and after stimulation of one sciatic nerve ...
