Journal ArticleDOI

Interstitial eosinophilic aggregates in diabetic nephropathy: allergy or not?

TL;DR: In DN, IEA are associated with the severity of IFTA but not with prescribed medications or clinical history of allergy, which suggests that in DN I EA are often associated with chronic tubulointerstitial injury and are not diagnostic of an allergic interstitial nephritis.
Journal Article

Effects of aging on expression of ischemic acute renal failure in rats.

TL;DR: It is concluded that aging increases susceptibility to severe ischemic acute renal failure in the rat, an effect that is apparent even during a transition from the adolescent to the mature state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Renal expression and activity of the germinal center kinase SK2

TL;DR: SK2 is a renal epithelial protein kinase whose expression and activity are increased during development and recovery from acute renal failure, where tubular epithelial regeneration may recapitulate developmental processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor–A mRNA Expression in Fetal, Normal Adult, and Atherosclerotic Human Aortas Analysis by Competitive Polymerase Chain Reaction

TL;DR: The significance of high levels of PDGF-A mRNA in the "quiescent" aortic media is unknown but it clearly does not promote cell replication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone morphogenetic protein 4: potential regulator of shear stress-induced graft neointimal atrophy.

TL;DR: Increased BMPs (particularly BMP4) coupled with decreased noggin may promote high shear stress-mediated graft neointimal atrophy by inhibiting SMC proliferation and increasing SMC death.
