Effects of aging on renal function and regenerative capacity.

چکیده
Along with the increase in aging of our population, the proportion of older patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is on the rise as a result of the accumulation of comorbidities as well as biological processes associated with aging. Older patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) comprise an increasing proportion of patients with CKD/ESRD as well. In this review, we will discuss biological processes of aging that predispose patients to AKI and CKD.

متن کاملTelomere shortening reduces regenerative capacity after acute kidney injury.
Telomeres of most somatic cells progressively shorten, compromising the regenerative capacity of human tissues during aging and chronic diseases and after acute injury. Whether telomere shortening reduces renal regeneration after acute injury is unknown. Here, renal ischemia-reperfusion injury led to greater impairment of renal function and increased acute and chronic histopathologic damage in ...
متن کاملFeasibility and toxicity of hematopoietic stem cell transplant in multiple sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis is a debilitating disease of the central nervous system. It affects people of all ages but is more prevalent among 20-40 year olds. Patients with MS can be presented with potentially any neurological symptom depending on the location of the lesion. A quarter of patients with MS suffer from bilateral lower limb spasticity among other symptoms. These devastating effects can be ...
متن کاملEffects of Chronic Administration of Different Doses of Nitrate on Renal Function in Female Rats
Introduction: As a nitric oxide (NO) donor, nitrate administration improves renal function in male animals. This study aims to determine the effects of chronic administration of different doses of nitrate on kidney function in normal adult female rats by measuring serum urea and creatinine and assessing the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Materials and Method: Two-month old female ...
