Intensity of renal support in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury

Paul M. Palevsky, +207 more
TL;DR: Intensive renal support in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury did not decrease mortality, improve recovery of kidney function, or reduce the rate of nonrenal organ failure as compared with less-intensive therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gelatinase A (MMP-2) is necessary and sufficient for renal tubular cell epithelial-mesenchymal transformation.

TL;DR: These studies indicate that a discrete matrix metalloproteinase, gelatinase A, is capable of inducing the complex genetic rearrangements that characterize renal tubular epithelial-mesenchymal transformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and expression of the human gene for the matrix metalloproteinase matrilysin.

TL;DR: Comparisons and differences observed between the promoters of matrilysin and the other metalloproteinases may provide insights into the molecular mechanisms that regulate the expression of this family of enzymes as a whole and the factors that distinguish the expression patterns of individual family members.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 Regulates Fibroblast Proliferation and Migration through the Extracellular Matrix in Association with Transcriptional Activation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2

TL;DR: Stable reconstitution of either wild-type DDR2 or constitutively active chimeric DDR2 in DDR2−/−cells by retroviral infection restored cell proliferation, migration through a reconstituted basement membrane (Matrigel), and MMP-2 levels to those of DDR2+/− fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Matrix metalloproteinase 2 and basement membrane integrity: a unifying mechanism for progressive renal injury

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that transgenic renal proximal tubular epithelial expression of a specific enzyme, MMP‐2, is sufficient to generate the entire spectrum of pathological and functional changes characteristic of human CKD.
