renal artery obstruction/phosphatase

BACKGROUND Transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) is an important cause of hypertension and renal allograft dysfunction occurring in kidney transplant recipients. However, conflicting predisposing risk factors for TRAS have been reported in the literature. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was

OBJECTIVE Renal reperfusion injury occurs after the blood flow to the ischemic kidney is re-established under various clinical conditions, such as organ transplantation, renal artery stenosis, embolic disease, and the repair of descending aortic. The current study aims to explore the effects of src

The inability to separate irreversible lesions of tubular epithelia from reversible tubular atrophy constitutes a major problem in histopathology and in decisions for revascularization of shrunken kidneys with renal artery stenosis. In order to characterize reversible tubular atrophy ('kidney

Cardiomyocytes bind, internalize, and activate recombinant human prorenin through mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor II (M6P/IGFII) receptors. To investigate whether this also applies to native human prorenin, neonatal rat myocytes were incubated for 4 hours at 37 degrees C with various

A 22-year-old black male presented with erythrocytosis and proteinuria. The erythrocytosis was characterized by increased red cell mass, normal arterial oxygen saturation, and normal hemoglobin electrophoresis and oxygen affinity. There was no splenomegaly, and the white blood cell count, platelet

Protein content, enzymatic activites and Ca2+ accumulation capacities were studied in plasma membrane fractions isolated from mesenteric arteries of rats made hypertensive by renal artery stenosis with and without contralateral nephrectomy, i.e., one-kidney, one clip (1-KHR) and two-kidney, one clip
