Uremic Toxins
The genomic action of calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3) is mediated through the interaction of the calcitriol receptor (VDR) with vitamin D response elements (VDREs). Although renal failure is associated with resistance to the action of calcitriol, the mechanism of this resistance is not well understood. Therefore, we used the electrophoretic mobility shift assay to compare the ability of ...
متن کاملHemolytic Uremic Syndrome: Toxins, Vessels, and Inflammation
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is characterized by thrombotic microangiopathy of the glomerular microcirculation and other vascular beds. Its defining clinical phenotype is acute kidney injury (AKI), microangiopathic anemia, and thrombocytopenia. There are many etiologies of HUS including infection by Shiga toxin-producing bacterial strains, medications, viral infections, malignancy, and mutat...
متن کاملNormal and pathologic concentrations of uremic toxins.
An updated review of the existing knowledge regarding uremic toxins facilitates the design of experimental studies. We performed a literature search and found 621 articles about uremic toxicity published after a 2003 review of this topic. Eighty-seven records provided serum or blood measurements of one or more solutes in patients with CKD. These records described 32 previously known uremic toxi...
متن کاملInactivation of botulinum and tetanus toxins by chelators.
Purified type A botulinum toxin of about 10(6) mouse 50% lethal doses per ml was greater than 99.9% inactivated when incubated at pH 7.4 for 30 min at 37 degrees C in 20 mM 1,10-phenanthroline (PTL) or 2,2'-dipyridyl (DPD) and was 96% inactivated when incubated in 70 mM 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid (HQL), but was not affected when incubated in 200 mM EDTA. When used as a representative of...
متن کاملBioengineered kidney tubules efficiently excrete uremic toxins
The development of a biotechnological platform for the removal of waste products (e.g. uremic toxins), often bound to proteins in plasma, is a prerequisite to improve current treatment modalities for patients suffering from end stage renal disease (ESRD). Here, we present a newly designed bioengineered renal tubule capable of active uremic toxin secretion through the concerted action of essenti...
