Background. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) is a ubiquitous coenzyme involved in electron transport and a cosubstrate for sirtuin function. NAD(+) deficiency has been demonstrated in the context of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods. We studied ...
Background. In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the relative contribution of genetic background, clinical risk factors, and antiretrovirals to chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unknown. Methods. We applied a case-control design and performed genome-wide g ...
Background: The relationship between amino acids, B vitamins, and their metabolites with D3-creatine (D3Cr) dilution muscle mass, a more direct measure of skeletal muscle mass, has not been investigated. We aimed to assess associations of plasma metabolite ...
Clinical point of care testing often needs plasma instead of whole blood. As centrifugation is labor intensive and not always accessible, filtration is a more appropriate separation technique. The complexity of whole blood is such that there is still no co ...
Current polyvinylpyrrolidone-modified polysulfone (PVP-PSU) membranes in haemodialysers do not facilitate the attachment and proliferation of renal proximal tubule cells (RPTCs) For bioartificial kidney (BAK) development expensive extracellular matrices ar ...
Employing a combined filtration and pptn. method, the endotoxin concn. in sodium alginate (SA) and sodium cellulose sulfate (SCS) was reduced to a value of 200 EU/g polymer. This is one-tenth of the regulatory threshold calcd., e.g., for an appropriate bio ...
1 The present work examined the effects of the subtype 2 of angiotensin II (AT(2)) receptors on the pressure-natriuresis using a new peptide agonist, and the possible involvement of cyclic guanosine 3', 5' monophosphate (cyclic GMP) in these effects. 2 In ...
The pharmacokinetics of furosemide were investigated in anaesthetized horses with bilateral ureteral ligation (BUL) with (n = 5) or without (n = 5) premedication with phenylbutazone. Horses were administered an intravenous (i.v.) bolus dose of furosemide ( ...
PAH (N-(4-aminobenzoyl)glycin) clearance measurements have been used for 50 years in clinical research for the determination of renal plasma flow. The quantitation of PAH in plasma or urine is generally performed by colorimetric method after diazotation re ...
Facilitated ammonium ion transfer reactions, using the crown ether dibenzo-18-crown-6, at a single microhole supported water/1,2-dichloroethane interface were used as the transducer to detect the biomolecule creatinine. The ammonium ion was produced during ...
