Reverse mid-dilution: new way to remove small and middle molecules as well as phosphate with high intrafilter convective clearance.
BACKGROUND The removal of small and middle molecules has a relevant impact on haemodialysis (HD) patient survival. Mid-dilution (MD) is a technique combining ease of use with high diffusive-convective clearances. However, MD may increase the intrafilter blood pressure due to the high filtration fraction. We devised a new filter configuration, reverse MD, with an inverted blood inlet and outlet....
متن کاملSmall and Innovative Molecules as New Strategy to Revert MDR
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a complex phenomenon principally due to the overexpression of some transmembrane proteins belonging to the ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter family. Among these transporters, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is mostly involved in MDR and its overexpression is the major cause of cancer therapy failure. The classical approach used to overcome MDR is the co-administration o...
متن کاملApplication of Cystatin C Reduction Ratio to High-Flux Hemodialysis as an Alternative Indicator of the Clearance of Middle Molecules
BACKGROUND/AIMS Although high-flux (HF) dialyzers with enhanced membrane permeability are widely used in current hemodialysis (HD) practice, urea kinetic modeling is still being applied to indicate the adequacy of both low-flux (LF) and HF HD. In comparison with urea (molecular weight, 60 Da) and beta(2)-microglobulin (beta(2)MG, 12 kDa), cystatin C (CyC, 13 kDa) is a larger molecule that has a...
متن کاملP122: Small Molecules as Chemical and Pharmacological Tools for Neuroinflammatory Diseases Treatment (with Emphasis on Multiple Sclerosis)
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neuroinflammatory disease resulting in degeneration of the myelin sheaths and death of oligodendrocytes. So far, several strategies have been introduced to control the disease. Treatment with small molecules is one of the strategies that have recently attracted the attention in the scientific community. These molecules that target epigenetic and other cellular proce...
