Renal tubular proteinuria and microalbuminuria in diabetic patients.
The urinary extraction of albumin, retinol binding protein, and N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase were studied in 60 children with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and in 45 normal children to find out whether the renal tubules played a part in causing the early increase in urinary excretion of albumin that occurs in diabetes mellitus. Two overnight urine samples were collected and the protein...
متن کاملProteinuria and phenotypic change of proximal tubular cells.
Terminal renal failure is the final common fate of chronic nephropathies independent of the type of initial insult. The outstanding review by Brenner et al. (1) in 1982 introduced the idea that glomerular hemodynamic changes that develop as compensatory adaptation to irreversible nephron damage cause progressive deterioration of function and structure of the remaining nephrons. After reduction ...
متن کاملTenofovir is associated with increased tubular proteinuria and asymptomatic renal tubular dysfunction in Ghana
BACKGROUND HIV infection is associated with increased risk of renal dysfunction, including tubular dysfunction (TD) related to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is becoming available for ART in sub-Saharan Africa, although data on its long-term safety there is limited. We aimed to study the prevalence of HIV-associated renal dysfunction in Ghana and explore assoc...
متن کاملProximal Tubular Hypertrophy and Enlarged Glomerular and Proximal Tubular Urinary Space in Obese Subjects with Proteinuria
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with glomerular hyperfiltration, increased proximal tubular sodium reabsorption, glomerular enlargement and renal hypertrophy. A single experimental study reported an increased glomerular urinary space in obese dogs. Whether proximal tubular volume is increased in obese subjects and whether their glomerular and tubular urinary spaces are enlarged is unknown. O...
متن کاملLimited capacity of proximal tubular proteolysis in mice with proteinuria.
Albuminuria is associated with the additional loss in the urine of small molecular weight proteins normally degraded by the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT), and competition for binding to the megalin/cubilin reuptake system has been considered the likely cause. We have previously reported that deficiency of the intrinsic lysosomal protein Limp-2 causes tubular proteinuria due to reduced fusion...
