Renal gluconeogenesis, renal glucose uptake and tubular glucose reabsorption are the three ways of renal involvement in glucose homeostasis. In the postabsorptive state, 20% of total glucose ...

If a specific method were available for producing selective inhibition of the renal tubular reabsorption of sodium from the glomerular filtrate, it might well prove useful in the study and ...

Since these features suggest renal tubular acidosis (RTA), urinary acid ... amino-aciduria and normal ability to increase bicarbonate reabsorption with increasing filtered loads during an acute ...

No kidney damage. AKI Serum creatinine increase by ≥0·3 mg/dL (≥26·5 umol ... proteinuria in the absence of albuminuria is a marker of increased production (eg, light chain proteinuria) or impaired ...

Cases of life-threatening effects such as renal tubular acidosis with hyperkalaemia have been described in immunocompromised patients such as patients with HIV, patients who had a prolonged duration ...

The plasma calcium level is maintained by the interplay of three dynamic processes: tubular reabsorption from the kidneys, absorption from the small intestine and bone remodelling. The two main ...

It also reduces necrosis and apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells and promotes tubular repair. For DN and its renal fibrosis, baicalin can act through several pathways. It can lessen the ...

Most cancers are named after the part of the body where the cancer first begins, and kidney cancer is no exception. Kidney cancer begins in the kidneys—two large, bean-shaped organs—one located to the ...

Objectives Human urate transporter 1 (URAT1) is a member of the organic anion transporter family (SLC22A12) that primarily regulates the renal tubular reabsorption of uric acid. This case–control ...

Aim: It has been shown that HMG-CoA inhibitors, also called statins, may interfere with the tubular reabsorption of albumin, increasing urinary albumin excretion. Patients & methods: We have ...
