Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is associated with a urine-concentrating defect attributed to renal cystic changes. As PKD genes are expressed in the brain, altered central release of arginine vasopressin could also play a role. In order to help determine this we measured central and nephrogenic components of osmoregulation in 10 adults and 10 children with ADPKD, all with ...
The TGFbeta superfamily plays diverse and essential roles in kidney development. Gdf11 and Bmp4 are essential for outgrowth and positioning of the ureteric bud, the inducer of metanephric mesenchyme. During nephrogenesis, Bmp7 is required for renewal of the mesenchyme progenitor population. Additionally, in vitro studies demonstrate inhibitory effects of BMPs and TGFbetas on collecting duct bra...
We experienced a case of chronic fibrosing pancreatitis in an 18/12-year-old girl, which was idiopathic because there were no familial back ground, no cystic fibrosis of pancrease, no ductal anomalies and obstruction. The patient presented intermittent colicky abdominal pain and progressive obstructive jaundice, but T-tube drainage and removal of the lymph nodes around the common bile duct reli...
OBJECTIVE To assess patients with SSc who present without circulating ANAs or RP. METHODS Five thousand three hundred and ninety patients who fulfilled the ACR criteria for SSc and were enrolled in the EULAR Scleroderma Trials and Research (EUSTAR) database were screened for the absence of both RP and circulating ANA. To differentiate SSc from its mimics, additional information was gathered u...
BACKGROUND Extrarenal nephroblastomatosis is a rare entity which occurs in retroperitoneum and inguinal region predominantly. Here we report two cases of primary extrarenal nephroblastomatosis of Han Chinese in Asian in unusual locations, one is located in testis and paratestis, and the other is paraspinal cord. CASE PRESENTATION Patient 1 was a 19-month-old boy with a hard and nodular mass a...
Nephrogenic metaplasia or nephrogenic adenoma of the urinary tract is an infrequent benign lesion that occurs in patients with a history of genitourinary surgery, stone disease, trauma, chronic urinary tract infection, or renal transplantation. The term “nephrogenic adenoma” was introduced by Friedman and Kuhlenbeck because the structure resembled that of renal collecting tubules. Nephrogenic m...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The pathogenesis of acquired nephrogenic systemic fibrosis recently described for patients with renal insufficiency and a history of exposition to gadolinium-based magnetic resonance contrast agents is not completely understood. A role for circulating fibroblasts in the fibrosing tissue is hypothetical, and the mechanism of the assumed trigger function of gadolinium re...
We have developed novel gold-silver alloy nanoshells as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) dual T1 (positive) and T2 (negative) contrast agents as an alternative to typical gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents. Specifically, we have doped iron oxide nanoparticles with Gd ions and sequestered the ions within the core by coating the nanoparticles with an alloy of gold and silver. Thus, these nanop...
Background Prior work demonstrated the utility of first-pass gadolinium-enhanced calf muscle perfusion MRI in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). However patients with PAD often have advanced renal disease which prohibits the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents due to the concern for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. ASL for quantification of calf muscle blood flow could provide a...
BACKGROUND Late gadolinium enhanced (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is frequently used to evaluate myocardial viability, estimate total infarct size and transmurality, but is not always straightforward is and contraindicated in patients with renal failure because of the risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. T2- and T1-weighted CMR alone is however relatively insensitive to chroni...
