Journal ArticleDOI
Inflammation and cachexia in chronic kidney disease
TL;DR: Higher serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines may be caused by reduced renal function, volume overload, oxidative or carbonyl stress, decreased levels of antioxidants, increased susceptibility to infection in uremia, and the presence of comorbid conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of mutations in the GNPTA (MGC4170) gene coding for GlcNAc-phosphotransferase alpha/beta subunits in Korean patients with mucolipidosis type II or type IIIA.
Kyung Hoon Paik,Seng Mi Song,Chang-Seok Ki,Han-Wook Yu,J. Kim,Ki Hoon Min,Soo Hee Chang,Eun Jae Yoo,In Jung Lee,Eun Kyung Kwan,Sun Joo Han,Dong-Kyu Jin +11 more
TL;DR: Mucolipidosis types II and III are autosomal recessive inherited diseases caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal enzyme N‐acetylglucosamine‐1 phosphotransferase, which adds phosphate to function as a recognition marker for the uptake and transport of lysOSomal enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary focal segmental glomerular sclerosis in children:clinical course and prognosis
Kyung Hoon Paik,Bum Hee Lee,Hee Yeon Cho,Hee Gyung Kang,Il Soo Ha,Hae Il Cheong,Dong Kyu Jin,Kyung Chul Moon,Yong Choi +8 more
TL;DR: A more prolonged use of corticosteroid therapy and early introduction of cyclosporin A (CsA) may improve the prognosis for primary FSGS in patients with initial steroid nonresponsiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation between fasting plasma ghrelin levels and age, body mass index (BMI), BMI percentiles, and 24-hour plasma ghrelin profiles in Prader-Willi syndrome.
Kyung Hoon Paik,Dong-Kyu Jin,Sang Yong Song,Ji Eun Lee,Si Hwan Ko,Seng Mi Song,J. Kim,Yoo Joung Oh,Sun Woo Kim,Soo Hyun Lee,Sung Hye Kim,Eun Kyung Kwon,Yon Ho Choe +12 more
TL;DR: The data show that there may be a suppressive (or up-regulating) controlling mechanism of ghrelin secretion in obese (or lean) PWS children, and it is hoped that the data may further explain the mechanisms underlying the insatiable appetite and obesity characteristic of PWS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppression of Acylated Ghrelin during Oral Glucose Tolerance Test Is Correlated with Whole-Body Insulin Sensitivity in Children with Prader-Willi Syndrome
Kyung Hoon Paik,Yon Ho Choe,Won Hah Park,Yoo Joung Oh,An Hee Kim,Su Hyun Chu,Seonwoo Kim,Eun Kyung Kwon,Sun Ju Han,Woo Yun Shon,Dong-Kyu Jin +10 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that AG is sensitively suppressed by insulin and that this suppression correlated with insulin sensitivity in Prader-Willi syndrome children.
