Renal histology across the stages of chronic kidney disease
The chronic kidney disease (CKD) classification represents a simple tool to evaluate kidney disease. However, it is not based on kidney histology and this might limit the correlation between renal function and...

Open AccessIL28B rs12979860 genotype as a predictor marker of progression to BKVirus Associated nephropathy, after kidney transplantation
BK virus (BKV) associated nephropathy (BKVAN) is still an important cause of allograft dysfunction after kidney transplantation (KT). Recent data have shown that the new interferon (IFN)-λ family has been ascr...

Open AccessMicroRNA 193b-3p as a predictive biomarker of chronic kidney disease in patients undergoing radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma
A significant proportion of patients undergoing radical nephrectomy (RN) for clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) develop chronic kidney disease (CKD) within a few years following surgery. Chronic kidney dise...

Open AccessInhibition of chemokine expression in rat inflamed paws by systemic use of the antihyperalgesic oxidized ATP
We previously showed that local use of periodate oxidized ATP (oATP, a selective inhibitor of P2X7 receptors for ATP) in rat paw treated with Freund's adjuvant induced a significant reduction of hyperalgesia H...

Selective intra-graft apoptosis and down-regulation of lymphocyte bcl-2, iNOs and CD95L expression in kidney–pancreas transplanted patients after anti-Thymoglobulin induction
Intra-graft infiltrating cells apoptosis was evaluated in 20 consecutive kidney–pancreas transplanted (KP) patients without kidney rejection. Two fine-needle aspirated biopsy (FNAB) and two peripheral blood ly...

Effects of Trimetazidine on Metabolic and Functional Recovery of Postischemic Rat Hearts
The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that the beneficial effect of trimetazidine during reflow of ischemic hearts is mediated by energy sparing and ATP pool preservation during ischemia. Isol...
