Transcriptome analysis of a rat PKD model: Importance of genes involved in extracellular matrix metabolism.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Previous experiments from our laboratory have demonstrated that HKalpha(2) coimmunoprecipitated with beta(1)-Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. Although HKalpha(2) is expressed abundantly in the apical membrane of distal colon, the demonstration that beta(1) localizes to this same membrane in distal colon has not been demon...

abstract：:Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are known to lower urinary protein excretion in human renal disease. This proteinuria lowering effect of ACE inhibition has been hypothesized to be a result of renal hemodynamic changes due to the inhibition of angiotensin II (Ang II) production. To test this hypothesis w...
