Enzyme activity in obstructive uropathy: basis for salt wastage and the acidification defect.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The clinical use of cyclosporine (CsA) is limited by its nephrotoxicity. Apoptosis, perhaps instigated by increased nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity, may play a role in such toxicity. METHODS:Human mesangial cells, human tubular cells, human umbilical vein endothelial cells, or murine endothelial cells ...

abstract：:Diabetic nephropathy shows a higher incidence in male subjects, which may in part be owing to genetic factors. The angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2), present in the renal glomerulus, may oppose the deleterious effects of the type I receptor (AT1) through vasodilatation and growth inhibition. We determined whether t...
