Modulation of gene expression by moxonidine in rats with chronic renal failure.
BACKGROUND Sympathetic overactivity is a hallmark of chronic renal failure. In a previous experimental study, the sympatholytic drug moxonidine (MOX) had beneficial effects on progression of chronic renal failure. The present study investigates whether moxonidine influences the expression of genes associated with adaptive changes in kidneys of subtotally nephrectomized rats. METHODS RNA was i...
متن کاملMoxonidine normalizes sympathetic hyperactivity in patients with eprosartan-treated chronic renal failure.
Enalapril and losartan reduce but not normalize sympathetic hyperactivity in patients with hypertensive chronic renal failure (CRF). This study assessed the effect of chronic eprosartan on BP and sympathetic activity, and assessed the effect of moxonidine during chronic eprosartan treatment. In 11 stable patients with CRF (creatinine clearance 47 +/- 10 ml/min), muscle sympathetic nerve activit...
متن کاملAssociation of hemodialysis and pruritus in chronic renal failure
Background and aim: Pruritus is a common disabling problem in patients with end stage renal disease. Several studies has recorded the relation between pruritus with hemodialysis in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of hemodialysis on pruritus of patients with CRF.Materials and Methods: After recording the demographic data and the diagnosis of d...
متن کاملEtiology of Chronic Renal Failure in Children and Lnfants
Chronic renal failure is an uncommon disease in children with some difference in the etiology in different countries. In this study on 180 children (From 1987 to 1997 in Shiraz) with age range of 3 months to 15 years (mean 8.6±4.2 years). The male to female ratio was 1. 57: 1. The etiology of chronic renal failure in decreasing order of frequency were: reflux nephropathy (25 % ) , glbmerular di...
