Human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells protect kidneys from cisplatin nephrotoxicity in rats.
Cisplatin has multiple cellular targets and modes of action that lead to nephrotoxicity. This suggests novel therapies that act at multiple cisplatin target sites may be effective. We tested whether human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) can affect multiple target sites and protect against cisplatin-induced kidney damage. Rats were divided into four groups: control, infus...

متن کاملTaurine and the kidneys
The interactions between the kidney and taurine are multifaceted. Taurine contributes to several biologic processes in the kidney, and the kidney influences specific aspects of taurine homeostasis [1]. The numerous molecular and cellular regulators of taurine handling by the kidney have been recently reviewed [2]. Thus, this chapter will examine several aspects of renal function in relation to ...
متن کاملRelationship between Cd and Zn concentration in the kidneys, liver, and muscles of moose (Alces alces) from north-eastern Poland
The aim of the study was to evaluate the cadmium and zinc content in the kidneys and liver of moose from north-eastern Poland. Animals were divided with respect to their age. The mean concentration of cadmium in the kidneys of moose studied was 11.31 mg kg-1, while in the liver it amounted to 2.68 mg kg-1. Age had a significant effect on the content of cadmium in both organs. In the muscles of ...
متن کاملChildhood CanCer and the Kidneys
objective: To compare the diagnostic performance of two height-independent equations used to calculate estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), those of Pottel (eGFR-Pottel) and the British Columbia Children’s Hospital (BCCH; eGFR-BCCH), with the commonly used Schwartz equation (eGFR-Schwartz). study design: We externally validated eGFR-Pottel and eGFR-BCCH in a well-characterized pediatric...
