- Pathological and functional significance of aging mouse kidneys: clinical implications to reduce the risk of hyper- or hypokalemia in the elderly

Elderly patients are prone to develop hyper- or hypokalemia, since they are susceptible to drugs or diets that affect the urinary or fecal potassium (K+) excretion. In aging mouse kidneys, in addition to glomerulosclerosis, proximal tubular atrophy, and atherosclerosis in renal arterioles, there was diffuse tubulointerstitial fibrosis with a number of inflammatory leukocytes infiltrating into the cortical interstitium. Since these...

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is one of the common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults and children worldwide. FSGS consists of a group of kidney diseases classified based on specific histopathological features. The current classification of FSGS makes it difficult to distinguish individual differences in pathogenesis, disease progression, and response to treatment. In recent years, the spread of next-generation sequencing,...
- The crosstalk of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and p53 in acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease

Wnt/β-catenin is a signaling pathway associated with embryonic development, organ formation, cancer, and fibrosis. Its activation can repair kidney damage during acute kidney injury (AKI) and accelerate the occurrence of renal fibrosis after chronic kidney disease (CKD). Interestingly, p53 has also been found as a key modulator in AKI and CKD in recent years. Meantime, some studies have found crosstalk...

Background: This study aimed to develop a machine learning-based 2-year risk prediction model for early identification of patients with rapid progressive immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). We also assessed the model’s performance to predict the long-term kidney-related outcome of patients. Methods: A retrospective cohort of 1,301 patients with biopsy-proven IgAN from two tertiary hospitals was used to derive and externally validate...
- Medium cut-off dialyzer improves reduction ratios of large middle molecules associated with vascular calcification

Background: We aimed to investigate the change in the large middle molecule (>15 kDa) removal rate, which is associated with vascular calcification, when using a medium cut-off (MCO) dialyzer compared to a high-flux (HF) dialyzer. Methods: Twenty patients with clinically stable maintenance hemodialysis were investigated over a 15-week study period. Dialyzer efficacies were evaluated during the last midweek hemodialysis treatment...

Background: Aging is a risk factor for development of chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus with commonly shared features of chronic inflammation and increased oxidative stress. Here, we investigated the effect of pan-Nox-inhibitor, APX-115, on renal function in aging diabetic mice. Methods: Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin at 50 mg/kg/day for 5 days in 52-week-old C57BL/6J mice....

Background: Neurologic complications, such as cognitive and emotional dysfunction, have frequently been observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Previous research shows that uremic toxins play a role in the pathogenesis of CKD-associated cognitive impairment. Since astrocytes contribute to the protection and survival of neurons, astrocyte function and brain metabolism may contribute to the pathogenesis of neurodegeneration. Indoxyl sulfate (IS)...

Background: Transferrin saturation (TSAT) has been used as an indicator of iron deficiency. However, there is no consensus regarding its optimal range for patient with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to analyze the effect of TSAT on the prognosis of patients with non-dialysis CKD (NDCKD). Methods: From 2011 to 2016, 2157 NDCKD patients with baseline TSAT measurements were followed...

Background: Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) are potential biomarkers for various kidney diseases. In this study, we aimed to identify a circulating miRNA signature for detecting acute kidney injury (AKI) in scrub typhus. Methods: We prospectively enrolled 40 patients with scrub typhus (20 with AKI, AKI group; 20 without AKI, non-AKI group) and 20 healthy volunteers (the HV group). Thereafter, we performed...
