The initiating causes of diseases thought to originate in the tubulointerstitium have beenespecially elusive. However, one possible cause for the higher prevalence of CKD in cats has recently been proposed. Subcutaneous administration of feline herpesvirus 1, calicivirus, and panleukopeniavirus vaccines ...
Many emerging therapies have shown promise in animal models of CKD, but have been less effective in humans Regression of CKD in humans is rare In the future, endothelin-receptor antagonists, agents that inhibit advanced glycation end-products and agents that reduce inflammation (for example, vitam...
They have variable document structures, they can be lengthy (on average around 1500 words19 in only the discharge summaries in a US intensive care data set, MIMIC-III20), and use terse abbreviations and symbols8,21 (e.g., “a [xx] y/o M w/ Hep C, HTN, CKD, a/w HTN emergency...
Loss of muscle mass is a prevalent complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and especially in those with end stage kidney disease (ESKD) [1,2,3]. The causes are diverse and ultimately converge to increased protein degradation and reduced protein synthesis, resulting in a state...
In CKD in general, vasopressin can cause relative glomerular hyperfiltration that is potentially detrimental.20 In ADPKD specifically, vasopressin causes cystogenesis and is associated with GFR decline.19 Show abstract Copeptin in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: real-world experiences from a...
Bleomycin induces apoptosis and increases the production of reactive oxygen species, resulting in oxidative stress and pulmonary fibrosis. Adenosine deaminase An enzyme that converts adenosine to inosine (and deoxyadenosine to deoxyinosine). Lack of adenosine deaminase causes immune deficiency. Oligomerization...
In most mammals, urate is converted by uricase or urate oxidase into allantoin, which is water-solu- ble and easily excreted in urine. In humans and apes, how- ever, urate is the end product of purine metabolism because of nonsense mutations in uricase, and plasma...

This work is in a preliminary stage and has not been extensively evaluated for its relevance to humans. Finally, it has recently been proposed that dietary Pi has a mechanistic link to tumor progression because of the high P demands needed to construct ribosomal RNA in rapidly growing tumor ...
