Journal ArticleDOI
The hyperfiltration theory: a paradigm shift in nephrology.
TL;DR: Clinical studies indicate that dietary protein restriction and antihypertensive therapy also slow progression in many of these disorders, including diabetes mellitus, solitary or remnant kidneys, and various forms of acquired renal disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of explosive brain death on cytokine activation of peripheral organs in the rat.
Moriatsu Takada,Kari C. Nadeau,Wayne W. Hancock,Harald S. Mackenzie,Gray D. Shaw,Ana Marie Waaga,Anil Chandraker,Mohamed H. Sayegh,Nicholas L. Tilney +8 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that irreversible central nervous system injury may up-regulate proinflammatory mediators and cell surface molecules in peripheral organs to be engrafted, making them more prone to host inflammatory and immunological responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppression subtractive hybridization identifies high glucose levels as a stimulus for expression of connective tissue growth factor and other genes in human mesangial cells.
Madeline Murphy,Catherine Godson,Sarah Cannon,Shinichiro Kato,Harald S. Mackenzie,Finian Martin,Hugh R. Brady +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, suppression subtractive hybridization identified 15 genes differentially induced when primary human mesangial cells are exposed to high glucose (30 mM versus 5 mM) in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fewer nephrons at birth: A missing link in the etiology of essential hypertension?
TL;DR: It is argued that recent independent observations in humans relating low birth weight to both increased risk of hypertension in later life and the formation of fewer nephrons at birth lend strong support to the nephron number hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular and molecular predictors of chronic renal dysfunction after initial ischemia/reperfusion injury of a single kidney.
TL;DR: Early ischemia and reperfusion, if severe enough in a single kidney, may be an important antigen-independent risk factor for later renal deterioration and failure and in the context of a renal allograft, may contribute to chronic rejection.
