Effect of Neurohypophysial Hormones on Protein Excretion by the Kidneys
AbstractVasopressin (VP) is one of the main factors affecting intraglomerular hemodynamics, filtration pressure, and the state of mesangial...

Pre-flight body weight effects on urinary calcium excretion in space
Microgravity-induced bone loss increases urinary calcium excretion which increases kidney stone formation risk. Not all individuals show the same...

Induction of open-form bile canaliculus formation by hepatocytes for evaluation of biliary drug excretion
Biliary excretion is a major drug elimination pathway that affects their efficacy and safety. The currently available in vitro sandwich-cultured...

Ammonia excretion by the fish gill: discoveries and ideas that shaped our current understanding
The fish gill serves many physiological functions, among which is the excretion of ammonia, the primary nitrogenous waste in most fishes. Although it...

Urinary Silicon Excretion in Relation to Lactation and Bone Mineral Density — a Longitudinal Study Post-partum
Silicon (Si) may be a mineral beneficial for bone health. Pregnancy and lactation have major impacts on maternal bone metabolism as bone minerals,...

The effect of salinity and calcium on diffusive water flux, oxygen consumption, and nitrogenous waste excretion rates in Pacific sanddab (Citharichthys sordidus) and Rock sole (Lepidopsetta bilineata)
Marine flatfishes have a low metabolic rate and routinely encounter large fluctuations in salinity, and are therefore of interest in the study of...

Pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution, bioavailability and excretion of the anti-virulence drug Fluorothiazinon in rats and rabbits
Growing antimicrobial resistance has accelerated the development of anti-virulence drugs to suppress bacterial toxicity without affecting cell...

Role of albumin in the metabolism and excretion of ochratoxin A
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is known to be strongly bound to serum albumin, but it remains unknown how albumin affects its metabolism and kinetics. To close...

Could natural phytochemicals be used to reduce nitrogen excretion and excreta-derived N2O emissions from ruminants?
Ruminants play a critical role in our food system by converting plant biomass that humans cannot or choose not to consume into edible high-quality...

Impact of different nitrogen additions on microbes and exopolysaccharides excretion in cyanobacterial biocrusts
BackgroundRecently, it has been found that nitrogen (N) deposition strongly affects the coverage of biocrusts. However, we know little about the...
