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

Mechanism by which Liddle's syndrome mutations increase activity of a human epithelial Na^+ channel

TL;DR: By deleting a conserved motif, Liddle's mutations increase the number of Na+ channels in the apical membrane, which increases renal Na+ absorption and creates a predisposition to hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of the beta subunit of the epithelial Na+ channel in mice: hyperkalemia and neonatal death associated with a pseudohypoaldosteronism phenotype.

TL;DR: The results indicate that, in vivo, the beta subunit is required for ENaC function in the renal collecting duct, but, in contrast to the alpha subunit, thebeta sub unit is not required for the transition from a liquid-filled to an air-filled lung.
Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane topology of the amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel.

TL;DR: A model of alpha rENaC consisting of an intracellular N terminus and C terminus, a large N-glycosylated extracellular domain, and two membrane-spanning domains that each pass once through the plasma membrane is supported.
