Novel diuretic targets.
As the molecular revolution continues to inform a deeper understanding of disease mechanisms and pathways, there exist unprecedented opportunities for translating discoveries at the bench into novel therapies for improving human health. Despite the availability of several different classes of antihypertensive medications, only about half of the 67 million Americans with hypertension manage thei...
متن کاملA novel target for diuretic therapy.
The reabsorption of salt in the distal nephron is predominantly mediated via the thiazide-sensitive sodium chroride cotransporter, NCC (SLC12A3), and the chloride-bicarbonate exchanger pendrin (SLC26A4, PDS), with pendrin working in tandem with the epithelial sodium channel and NCC working by itself. Single deletion of NCC or pendrin in genetically engineered mouse models does not cause salt wa...
متن کاملtolvaptan: a novel diuretic in heart failure management
heart failure (hf) is still a major problem worldwide with high morbidity and mortality rates. the recently developed medication for hf is still incapable of reducing its morbidity and mortality, and clinical data supporting the efficacy and safety of its mainstay therapy remain insufficient. arginine-vasopressin (avp) plays important roles in circulatory and water homeostasis, one of which is ...
متن کاملNovel astrocyte targets
During the last 20 years, it has been well established that a finely tuned, continuous crosstalk between neurons and astrocytes not only critically modulates physiological brain functions but also underlies many neurological diseases. In particular, this novel way of interpreting brain activity is markedly influencing our current knowledge of epilepsy, prompting a re-evaluation of old findings ...
