Na+/K+-ATPase stabilization by Hsp70 in the outer stripe of the outer medulla in rats during recovery from a low-protein diet
(Springer, 2008-02-19)
A low-protein (LP) diet induces injury from energy depletion in renal epithelial cells. Overexpression of heat-shock proteins has been implicated in the restoration of the cytoskeletal anchorage of Na+/K+-ATPase. We tested ...
Increased AT 1 receptor expression and mRNA in kidney glomeruli of AT 2 receptor gene-disrupted mice
(American Physiological Society, 2001-01)
The proposed feedback between angiotensin II AT2 and AT1 receptors prompted us to study AT1 receptor expression in kidneys of male AT2 receptor-gene disrupted mice (agtr2 −/y). In wild-type (agtr2 +/y) mice, AT1 receptor ...
Altered renal expression of Na + transporters and ROMK in protein-deprived rats
(Karger, 2009-03)
Potassium depletion has been associated with altered sodium reabsorption in tubule segments. We studied if the altered abundance of Na+ transporters and ROMK are associated with distal potassium secretion that contributes ...
Losartan modulation on NOS isoforms and COX-2 expression in early renal fibrogenesis in unilateral obstruction
(Elsevier, 2004-12)
BACKGROUND: Angiotensin II plays a central role in the initiation of renal fibrogenesis at a very early stage leading to a rapid progression in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). We examined the effect of an angiotensin ...
A rapid enzymatic method for the isolation of defined kidney tubule fragments from mouse
(Springer, 2003-08)
The increasing number of available genetically manipulated mice makes it necessary to develop tools and techniques for examining the phenotypes of these animals. We have developed a straightforward and rapid method for the ...
