Detection of renal tubular transporter proteins in canine urinary extracellular vesicles using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Urinary extracellular vesicles (UEVs) are membranous particles that carry renal tubular transporter proteins. Here, we evaluate whether selected renal tubular transporter proteins can be detected in UEVs isolated from small volume (1–5 mL) canine urine samples of healthy dogs and canine patients with elevated circulating parathyroid hormone ...

LACK OF RELATION BETWEEN SERUM PARATHYROID HORMONE LEVELS AND ERYTHROCYTE OSMOTIC FRAGILITY IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS ON PERITONEAL DIALYSIS

open access: yesEurasian Journal of Medicine, 2019
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been shown to enhance erythrocyte osmotic fragility and has been incriminated as a factor in the anemia seen in patients with chronic renal failure and secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Molecular pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder: Focus on the fibroblast growth factor 23–Klotho axis and bone turnover dynamics

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) is a major complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by disruptions in mineral metabolism, abnormal bone turnover and vascular calcification, which collectively increase the risk of fractures and cardiovascular disease.

Comparison of scintigraphy and ultrasound imaging in patients with primary, secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism – own experience

open access: yes, 2017
Background: The imaging techniques most commonly used in the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidisms are ultrasound and scintigraphy. The diagnostic algorithms vary, depending mainly on the population, and experience of physicians.
