Journal ArticleDOI

Spironolactone ameliorates PIT1-dependent vascular osteoinduction in klotho-hypomorphic mice

TL;DR: It is shown that the mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist spironolactone reduced vascular and soft tissue calcification and increased the life span of kl/kl mice, without significant effects on 1,25(OH)2D3, FGF23, calcium, and phosphate plasma concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sgk1-Dependent Stimulation of Cardiac Na+/H+ Exchanger Nhe1 by Dexamethasone

TL;DR: Sgk1 is critically involved in the phosphorylation and activation of the cardiac Na+/H+ exchanger Nhe1, and the effects of dexamethasone were significantly blunted in sgK1-/- mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Uremic Toxin Acrolein Promotes Suicidal Erythrocyte Death

TL;DR: Whether the uremic toxin acrolein could trigger eryptosis is explored, an effect at least in part due to stimulation of ceramide formation with subsequent sensitisation of the erythrocytes to cytosolic Ca2+.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stimulation of suicidal erythrocyte death by increased extracellular phosphate concentrations.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that suicidal erythrocyte death is triggered by complexed CaHPO4, an effect depending on extracellular but not intracellular Ca2+ concentration.
