Although the mechanisms involved in cytotoxicity mediated by the compound are not fully understood, its pro-oxidant activity is directly related to its toxicology.

Abstract:

Ischemia and reperfusion are natural steps during kidney transplantation, and IRI is considered one of the most important nonspecific factors affecting allograft dysfunction. Transplanted organs experience several episodes of ischemia, in which cold ischemia occurs during allograft storage in preservation solutions. Even though cold ischemia has been studied extensively, all of the studies have been carried out in vitro and ex vivo models. There is no in vivo model available to examine renal IRI induced solely by cold ischemia. In the present study, we developed an in vivo mouse model to study

Abstract:

For the majority of patients with end-stage kidney disease, kidney transplantation remains the optimal treatment modality, offering superior survival and quality of life at a fraction of the cost of dialysis. However, the requirement for long-term immunosuppression increases the susceptibility of transplant recipients to metabolic complications, infection, cancer, and cardiovascular disease, meaning that a “normal” lifespan is rarely, if ever achieved. Innovative strategies are needed to reduce the burden of current immunosuppressive regimens and to maintain the balance between immunosuppressi

Abstract:

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is caused by mutations of the PKD1 or PKD2 genes. Cyst cells exhibit sustained expression of fetal genes such as PAX2. Normally, PAX2 is involved in kidney development and is rapidly downregulated after birth. Overactivity of the canonical beta-catenin signaling pathway has also been linked to the formation of renal cysts. To determine whether beta-catenin activity is linked to the level of PAX2 expression in vivo, we created a transgenic mouse overexpressing PAX2 in mature proximal tubules of the kidney. Here we report that the canonic

Abstract:

During kidney development, there is a switch from predominantly canonical to non-canonical WNT signalling. This switch transitions the developing kidney from a state of active proliferation to that of terminal differentiation. The current belief is that a defect in this switch is an underlying mechanism in the pathogenesis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. We first hypothesized that a failure to suppress canonical WNT signalling would lead to cyst formation and following this line of reasoning, crossed a β-catenin transcriptional activity reporter mouse to mice with mutations

<p> Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is among the most prevalent life-threatening genetic conditions. Despite this, no approved medical therapies exist to treat the disease. Until the recent past, no methods could reliably measure the course of the disease far in advance of end stage renal disease (ESRD). As normal tissue is progressively destroyed or blocked by enlarging cysts, remaining nephrons compensate in a process called hyperfiltration. This beneficial physiological response confounds tests of renal function. Thus, potential interventions could not be tested against

This thesis explores and explains a method using discrete curvature as a feature to find regions of vertices that can be classified as being likely to indicate the presence of an underlying tumor on a kidney surface mesh. Vertices are tagged based on curvature type and mathematical morphology is used to form regions on the mesh. The size and location of the tumor is approximated by fitting a sphere to this region. The method is intended to be employed in noninvasive radiotherapy with a dynamic soft tissue model. It could also provide an alternative to volumetric methods used to segment tumors.

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are a group with a markedly increased risk of adverse events following cardiac surgery.

Currently, there are no effective therapies proven to modify AKI in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This thesis has three parts. The first describes an analysis of the Barts Health NHS Trust cardiac surgical dataset. Specifically, outcomes of patients with CKD and AKI were examined.

Abstract:

In human medicine proteinuria and systemic hypertension have been implicated in the development and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Whilst the presence of increased concentrations of albumin within the urine may predominantly be associated with vascular changes at the level of the glomerulus, the presence of low molecular weight (LMW) proteins may be more indicative of damage at the level of the proximal tubules. In cats with CKD, proteinuria is an independent variable significantly associated with survival. To evaluate the role of clinical parameters, proteinuria and lifestyle fa

Abstract:

Kidney disease is an important contributor to the burden of ill-health worldwide. Genetic factors have an important role in determining which people are affected by kidney disease, and this study aimed to identify the genes responsible for disease in families in which unusual kidney diseases were transmitted in a pattern suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance. I performed genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism-based linkage studies and identified two new human disease genes. Hypoxia Inducible Factor-2α (HIF2α) is a widely expressed transcription factor which is rapidly broken down in th

Abstract:

The prognosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been dramatically improved over the years owing to more widespread access and earlier use of antiretroviral drug therapy. Consequently, HIV-positive patients are no longer dying from AIDS related illnesses but increasingly are experiencing non-infectious complications such as end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). The prevalence of ESKD among 7,307 black HIV-positive patients in the UK CHIC cohort increased from 0.44% in 2000/2001 to 1.09% in 2010/2011. Kidney transplantation was increasingly used to treat ESKD. Among those suitable for transpl

Abstract:

Introduction Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common and important public health problem, with significant impact on the person’s quality of life and chances of survival. Cardiovascular disease is major cause of morbidity and mortality among people with CKD. Cancer is also a well-recognised complication in people on dialysis and with kidney transplants, but has not been adequately assessed in people with mild to moderately reduced kidney function. It is uncertain whether the basis of such increased risk in the end-stage kidney and transplant populations is solely related to their immunocompr

Abstract:

Urine contains exosomes originating from the circulation and all cells lining the urinary tract. Exosomes are a route of inter-cellular communication along the nephron potentially able to transfer of protein and/or RNA. It is not known whether this is a regulated process analogous to other cell-to-cell signalling systems. The aims of this study were to develop nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) as a technique to quantify exosomes in urine. Secondly, the hormonal regulation of exosome uptake in vitro and in vivo was investigated. Thirdly, exosome excretion in a central diabetes insipidus (DI)

Abstract:

In this thesis, we present three image processing tools inspired by and designed for histology image analysis. Histology, which is the examination of biological tissue under a microscope, is a critical technique in biomedical research and clinical practice. While slide preparation and imaging is increasingly becoming automated, the analysis of the resulting histology images is not: even routine analyses still require the trained eyes of a pathologist. In our work, we aim to understand histology images as a class of signals and develop tools to aid in the automated analysis of these signals. Ou
