Kidney Injury Molecule-1 and Cardiovascular Diseases: From Basic Science to Clinical Practice
Despite the recent findings concerning pathogenesis and novel therapeutic strategies, cardiovascular disease (CVD) still stays the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with renal dysfunction, especially acute kidney injury (AKI). Early detection of patients with impaired renal function with cardiovascular risk may help ensure more aggressive treatment and improve clinical outcom...
متن کاملSudden arrhythmic death: from basic science to clinical practice
Sudden cardiac death refers to unexpected death attributable to a cardiac cause occurring within 1 h of the onset of symptoms (NICE, 2006). It often results from cardiac arrhythmias and is a major worldwide cause of morbidity and mortality. Arrhythmias account for 180,000 to 250,000 deaths per year in the United States and ∼70,000 deaths per year in the United Kingdom (NICE, 2006; Chugh et al.,...
متن کاملLeukemia: A Transition From Basic Science to Clinical Practice.
The term "leukemia" actually refers to a family of blood cancers, each having a distinct pattern of symptoms and cytology and each differing in age of onset, prognosis, and therapeutic options. The acute leukemias -acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) -have been recognized for their rapid clinical progression when untreated and are diagnosed by the identificat...
متن کاملKidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1): a novel kidney-specific injury molecule playing potential double-edged functions in kidney injury.
Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), a recently discovered transmembrane protein, is expressed in dedifferentiated proximal renal tubular epithelial cells in damaged regions. It may participate in the progress of renal injury or repair. Many studies have illustrated the different functions of KIM-1 in various renal diseases including protective functions in acute kidney injury and damaging functio...
متن کاملA basic science view of acute kidney injury biomarkers.
Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in the identification and validation of novel biomarkers as well as refinements in the use of serum creatinine as a marker of kidney function. These advances have taken advantage of laboratory investigations, which have identified these novel molecules that serve important biological functions in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (A...
