Involvement of Renal Efflux Transporter MATE1 in Renal Excretion of Flecainide

Hepatobiliary excretion of 99mTc-EC: A potential source of mistake in the interpretation of renal scintigraphy

A 10-year-old boy with a history of bloody discoloration of urine following recent appendectomy was referred to our department for urinary leakage/fistula evaluation. A renal Technetium-99m-L,L-ethylenedicysteine (99mTc-EC) scintigraphy was performed. After injection of radiotracer, a focus of activity appeared in the supralateral part of the right kidney which was confirmed as accum...

Two cases of pseudoxanthoma elasticum with renal involvement

  Abstract   Pseudoxanthoma elasticum is a rare, hereditary, multisystemic disease affecting   the skin, eye, and cardiovascular system. Renal involvement is uncommon.   We describe two cases of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) in two women with   distinctive skin lesions and nephrocalcinosis that renal ultrasonography showed a   characteristic pattern of dotted increased echogenicity in the cort...

The Renal Excretion of Oxypurines.

Renal Water Excretion in Premature

It is generally believed that, after water ingestion, the young infant can neither dilute his urine nor increase the rate of urine flow as rapidly or as effectively as the adult (1-4). Although several sound investigations (4-6) have demonstrated that the kidneys of newborn animals are relatively inefficient in this regard, there have been very few direct observations on these important functio...

Renal lithium excretion in man.

THOMSEN, KLAUS, AND MOGENS SCHOU. Renal lithium excretion k man. Am. J. Physiol. 215(4): 823-827. 1968.--Renal clearances of creatinine, lithium, sodium, and potassium were determined in six healthy human subjects. Lithium excretion was not significantly affected by water diuresis or the administration of furosemide, bendroflumethiazide, ethacrynic acid, ammonium chloride, spironolactone, or po...
