During kidney injury, these cells are not merely the victim of injury, but they also play a vital role in aggravating it11, indicating their potential as promising target cells for CKD targeted therapy. However, efficient and safe delivery of therapeutic drugs to RTECs is challenging due to ...
During a study at 4300 m, urine norepinephrine levels—a marker of sympathetic activity—peaked 4–6 days after altitude exposure (Mazzeo, 1998). The study compared women in different hormonal phases when exposed to high altitude. The urinary norepinephrine levels heart rates both increased over ti...
To ensure the avoidance of vitamin D toxicity, as manifested by hypercalciuria or hypercalcemia, calcium and creatinine were assessed via blood and urine collection (24-hour urine at baseline and months 12, 24, and 36, second void urine sample at months 6, 18, and 30) and monitored by the...

Urine GLY levels above the limit of detection (0.1 ng/mL) were found in 186 of 187 (99%) pregnant women. Further analyses were limited to 155 pregnant women with singleton live births. The mean age of participants was 29 years, and the majority were non-Hispanic white (70%) or non-Hi...
Calcium phosphate deposition can be formed as calcium phosphate particles (CaPs) in the kidney; the formation was caused by excessive urinary excretion of phosphate and worsened the damage to renal tubular cells3,4. Moreover, CaPs are involved in subepithelial or interstitial plaques in the renal ...
Research has indicated that protein energy malnutrition in mice affects the local immune system in the intestine, and that supplementation with probiotic fermented milk can increase dendritic cells, macrophages, IgA+ cells, and cytokines like TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-12, thus restoring the intestinal...
Red blood cells are mainly used to observe anemia and internal bleeding in patients. Platelets are mainly used to observe the patient's blood coagulation. In the diagnosis and treatment of primary clinics,patients visit mainly because of...
They were excluded if they had a current diagnosis of substance abuse or dependence at screening, positive result in urine drug screen at enrollment or before any of the PET scans, history of clinically significant physical illness, pregnant or lactat- ing women at screening or positive urine ...
neurogenic mechanism involved in this regulation remains largely unknown. Perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT), also known as the adipose capsule of kidney, is a layer of fatty material surrounding the kidney and lies inside the renal fascia. PRAT is neutral fat consisting of white adipose tissue and...
