Shear stress is normalized in glomerular capillaries following ⅚ nephrectomy.
Loss of significant functional renal mass results in compensatory structural and hemodynamic adaptations in the nephron. While these changes have been characterized in several injury models, how they affect hemodynamic forces at the glomerular capillary wall has not been adequately characterized, despite their potential physiological significance. Therefore, we used intravital multiphoton micro...

متن کاملReversal of glomerular lesions involves coordinated restructuring of glomerular microvasculature.
There is increasing evidence from both human and experimental studies that at least partial reversal of glomerulosclerosis can be achieved by glomerular remodeling. This requires substantial changes in glomerular architecture, specifically of glomerular capillaries. It was the purpose of the present study to characterize the stereologic and topologic characteristics of glomerular capillaries wh...
متن کاملCyclooxygenase-2, prostaglandin E2, and prostanoid receptor EP2 in fluid flow shear stress-mediated injury in the solitary kidney.
Hyperfiltration subjects podocytes to increased tensile stress and fluid flow shear stress (FFSS). We showed a 1.5- to 2.0-fold increase in FFSS in uninephrectomized animals and altered podocyte actin cytoskeleton and increased synthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) following in vitro application of FFSS. We hypothesized that increased FFSS mediates cellular changes through specific receptors of ...
متن کاملPhenotypic Expression of ADAMTS13 in Glomerular Endothelial Cells
BACKGROUND ADAMTS13 is the physiological von Willebrand factor (VWF)-cleaving protease. The aim of this study was to examine ADAMTS13 expression in kidneys from ADAMTS13 wild-type (Adamts13⁺/⁺) and deficient (Adamts13⁻/⁻) mice and to investigate the expression pattern and bioactivity in human glomerular endothelial cells. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Immunohistochemistry was performed on ki...
