Re: Urinary Proteomics Yield Pathological Insights for Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction.

چکیده
Prenatal hydronephrosis is a common condition that may spontaneously resolve after birth. However, this condition can result in renal damage and requires surgical correction in a number of cases. Preventing renal damage is paramount, but existing diagnostic technology is invasive, exposes infants to radiation, is costly, and is often indeterminate. A better understanding of the pathophysiology of renal obstruction as reflected in the urinary proteome may provide new insights into the disease that could potentially alter the clinical management of hydronephrosis. We performed a quantitative proteomics study of urine that was surgically obtained from eight clinically significant, unilaterally obstructed infants versus eight healthy controls, with the goal of identifying quantitatively varying proteins and the biological networks associated with them. Notably, urine was obtained from both the obstructed kidney and the bladder. Over 1100 proteins were identified, and a total of 76 quantitatively varying proteins were identified. Proteins involved in oxidative stress, inflammation, and renal disease pathways showed the most significant abundance differences. This study gives a deeper understanding of the critical proteomic changes associated with renal obstruction and represents the deepest proteomic profile of renal obstruction to date.

Upper urinary tract urodynamic parameters were measured serially in 12 dogs subjected to partial ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Measurements of pressure-volume relationships (pelvimetrics) and the physiologic capacity of the renal pelvis were important predictors of hydronephrotic equilibrium which occurred only in kidneys whose pelvic urine volume remained lower than the renal pelvic capa...
متن کاملNephrolithiasis Caused by Ceftriaxone in a 3-Year-Old Child with Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction
We report the case of a 3-year-old boy with urinary tract malformation (left sided stenosis of the ureteropelvic junction) which was precipitating factor for ensuing nephrolithiasis of the left kidney during the therapy with ceftriaxone. The treatment with spasmolytics was initiated, together with the forced parentheral hydration. After 3 weeks, there was no evidence of calculi in the urinary t...

ABSTRACT Congenital genitourinary tract abnormalities occur in 0.1% to 1% of all neonates and are a major cause of perinatal mortality and morbidity. Nowadays, prenatal ultrasonography can detect most malformations and anomalies. In this study the genitourinary tract abnormalities of the Fetuses of the pregnant women by prenatal ultrasonography and causes of these abnormalities were evaluated...
