Abstract:
The capillary tuft of glomeruli of the hagfish mesonephros contains both 'low'-pressure and 'high'-pressure glomerular vessels (LPGVs and HPGVs). The existence of the HPGV raised the possibility that pressure filtration could occur in the hagfish kidney when the blood pressure was sufficiently high. Therefore, measurements of glomerular capillary pressure were made in HPGVs and LPGVs whilst single glomeruli were perfused with hagfish Ringer's solution that contained the colloid Ficoll 70. Calculations of the effective colloid osmotic pressure in perfused capillaries were made; these showed tha

Abstract:
Our knowledge of the structure and function of the renal glomerulus is reviewed in a historical context. The glomerular corpuscles were first described by Malpighi in 1666. Subsequent injection studies led to conflicting claims concerning a glomerular-tubular connection. This connection was accepted only after the convincing demonstration of the anatomical relationship essentially as we now know it by Bowman in 1842. Ludwig was the first to propose that the mechanism of separation of fluid in the glomeruli was by ultrafiltration. Estimates of the ultrafiltration forces in mammals led to confli

This article is motivated by some longitudinal clinical data of kidney transplant recipients, where kidney function progression is recorded as the estimated glomerular filtration rates at multiple time points post kidney transplantation.

We find that the estimated functional principal component scores can be used to cluster glomerular filtration rate curves.

The zebrafish pronephric kidney provides a simplified model of nephron development and epithelial cell differentiation which is amenable to genetic analysis.

Abstract. The objective of this study was to determine whether the glomerular hyperfiltration of pregnancy is maintained even after Caesarean section and, if so, to define the responsible hemodynamics. The dynamics of glomerular filtration were evaluated in 12 healthy women who had just completed an uncomplicated pregnancy and were delivered by Caesarean section. Age-matched but non-gravid female volunteers (n = 22) served as control subjects. GFR in postpartum women was elevated above control values by 41%; 149 ± 10 versus 106 ± 3 ml/min per 1.73 m2, respectively (P < 0.001). In contrast,

The total plasma clearance of iohexol at urography and 51Cr-EDTA was compared in 31 patients with di- or tetraparesis. A reference 51Cr-EDTA clearance was also performed 24 hours prior to the urography. The GFR was calculated from one, 2 or 4 plasma samples collected 180, 210, 240 and 270 min after the injection. An X-ray fluorescence analyzer was used for the analysis of iohexol in plasma as well as the contrast medium clearance calculations. It was shown that single or multiple sample clearance of iohexol and 51Cr-EDTA were equivalent methods for measurement of the GFR. The GFR was not affec

BackgroundUnderstanding podocyte-specific responses to injury at a systems level is difficult because injury leads to podocyte loss or an increase of extracellular matrix, altering glomerular cellular composition. Finding a window into early podocyte injury might help identify molecular pathways involved in the podocyte stress response.MethodsWe developed an approach to apply proteome analysis to very small samples of purified podocyte fractions. To examine podocytes in early disease states in FSGS mouse models, we used podocyte fractions isolated from individual mice after chemical induction

We studied glomerular function longitudinally for 36-120 mo in 21 patients undergoing treatment for diffuse, proliferative lupus nephritis. We determined glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and glomerular oncotic pressure (IIGC) and computed the two-kidney ultrafiltration coefficient (Kf) at 6- to 12-mo intervals. The relationships and cross talk among the three variables over time were then analyzed by eigenfunction regression and canonical correlations. We also performed a morphometric analysis of serial biopsies and computed single-nephron Kf in patent glomeruli at baseline and after 36-94 mo
