Inhibitory effect of NH4Cl treatment on renal Tgfß1 signaling following unilateral ureteral obstruction.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Consequences of obstructive nephropathy include tissue fibrosis, a major pathophysiological mechanism contributing to development of end-stage renal disease. Transforming growth factor β 1 (Tgfβ1) is involved in the progression of renal fibrosis. According to recent observations, ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) prevented phosphate-induced vascular remodeling, effects involving decreas...
متن کاملThe effect of aliskiren on the renal dysfunction following unilateral ureteral obstruction in the rat.
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of blocking renin-angiotensin system by direct renin inhibition using aliskiren on the renal dysfunction following reversible unilateral ureteral obstruction (UO). METHODS Wistar rats underwent reversible left UO for 72 hours. Group-Alsk (n=12) received aliskiren (30 mg/kg/day) dissolved in water starting one day before creating UO and continued until the ter...
متن کاملPKB/SGK-resistant GSK-3 signaling following unilateral ureteral obstruction.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Renal tissue fibrosis contributes to the development of end-stage renal disease. Causes for renal tissue fibrosis include obstructive nephropathy. The development of renal fibrosis following unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is blunted in gene-targeted mice lacking functional serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase SGK1. Similar to Akt isoforms, SGK1 phosphorylates and th...
متن کاملRenin-angiotensin system and unilateral ureteral obstruction
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is a clinical scenario that leads to obstructive nephropathy. UUO alters the expression of many mediators in the ipsilateral kidney. Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is involved in UUO. Angiotensin II (Ang II) and angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7) as the main arms of RAS influence kidney function which may alter by UUO. Ang II via Ang II receptor subtypes I (AT1R) ...
متن کاملCompensatory renal growth after unilateral ureteral obstruction.
Compensatory renal growth after unilateral ureteral obstruction. The accumulation of bulk renal protein, RNA and DNA was studied in mice during a 35-day period of accelerated renal growth in the kidney contralateral to that obstructed by acute ureteral ligation. Control mice were sham-operated and nonoperated. RNA was determined by the method of Monroe and Fleck, DNA after Ceriotti and protein ...
