Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Unilateral, minimally invasive, renal arterial embolization and delayed contralateral nephrectomy was described in cats as a novel remnant kidney model of chronic kidney disease using two doses of embolic particles. Renal function declined and characteristic histopathological markers of kidney disease were present 6 months after the embolism procedure.

Hypertension, 2017 See related article, pp 119–128 Organisms tend to compensate for the need of a cellular function by increasing the amount or the size of the responsible cell type. Hypertrophy of all muscle types under increased workload is a prominent example. Also several hormone systems react by increasing the amount of hormone-producing cells, when the main ...

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and endothelin‐1 type A receptor (ETAR), leading to autoantibody‐mediated ...

Brain Renin–Angiotensin System: Does It Exist?
HYPERTENSION, 2017 Because of the presence of the blood–brain barrier, brain renin–angiotensin system activity should depend on local (pro)renin synthesis. Indeed, an intracellular form of renin has been described in the brain, but whether it displays angiotensin (Ang) I ...

Purification of Pig Renin [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1965 1. A new method of purification of renin is described. This method employs the following procedures: ethanol precipitation; saline extraction; precipitation of renin with 40% ammonium sulphate; precipitation of impurities with 3% ammonium sulphate at pH2.5; chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and CM-Sephadex; gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 (both normal ...

The accessory renal arteries: A systematic review with meta‐analysis
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.Abstract The accessory renal arteries (ARAs) are a well‐described variant of the renal vasculature with clinical implications for radiologists, surgeons, and clinicians. The aim of the present systematic review with meta‐analysis was to estimate the pooled prevalence of ARAs, including their variant number, origin, and termination, and to highlight ...

Implications of Plasma Renin Activity and Plasma Aldosterone Concentration in Critically Ill Patients with Septic Shock [PDF]
Korean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017 Background The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is closely associated with volume status and vascular tone in septic shock. The present study aimed to assess whether plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) measurements ...
