Mechanisms of Acute Kidney Injury and Repair
The mechanisms involved in kidney injury and repair are complex. In this chapter, I will briefl y summarize various components of this complexity. There are many potential causes of acute kidney injury (AKI), and each has its own characteristics, but I will focus on overriding themes, recognizing that the importance of some mechanisms may be dependent on the factors leading to the development o...
متن کاملMechanisms of kidney cell injury from metals.
The most environmentally abundant toxic metals/metalloids (arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury) are each known to produce cell injury in the kidney but the molecular mechanisms underlying these events are now being elucidated. It is clear that the nephrotoxicity of these agents is due, in part, to the fact that urinary elimination is a major route of excretion from the body. The role(s) of mole...
متن کاملSearching for mechanisms that matter in early septic acute kidney injury: an experimental study
INTRODUCTION In almost half of all sepsis patients, acute kidney injury (AKI) develops. However, the pathobiologic differences between sepsis patients with and without AKI are only poorly understood. We used a unique opportunity to examine dynamic inflammatory, renal hemodynamic, and microvascular changes in two clinically relevant large-animal models of sepsis. Our aim was to assess variabilit...
متن کاملColloid-induced kidney injury: experimental evidence may help to understand mechanisms
Fluid resuscitation is widely used, and many patients are therefore exposed to plasma volume expanders. Among these, colloids, particularly hydroxyethyl starches, have been shown in recent experiments and clinical studies to induce acute kidney injury. The mechanisms of colloid-induced acute kidney injury remain incompletely elucidated. The risks associated with colloid osmotic pressure elevati...
متن کاملContrast-induced kidney injury: mechanisms, risk factors, and prevention.
In general, iodinated contrast media (CM) are tolerated well, and CM use is steadily increasing. Acute kidney injury is the leading life-threatening side effect of CM. Here, we highlight endpoints used to assess CM-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI), CM types, risk factors, and CIAKI prevention. Moreover, we put forward a unifying theory as to how CIAKI comes about; the kidney medulla's unique...
