No benefit of HIF prolyl hydroxylase inhibition for hypertensive renal damage in renovascular hypertensive rats

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: We previously reported that malignant hypertension is associated with impaired capillary density of target organs. Here, we tested the hypothesis that stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) in a modified “preconditioning” approach ...

The insulin‐like growth factor system and the progression of renal complications of type 2 diabetes

Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Chronic kidney disease is associated with dysregulation of the insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) system. Alterations in IGF bioavailability, driven by IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), may influence the decline in renal function. However, the longitudinal relationship between baseline IGF‐I, IGF‐II, IGFBPs and progression of kidney ...
