Puerarin prevents calcium oxalate crystal-induced renal epithelial cell autophagy by activating the SIRT1-mediated signaling pathway
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals can activate autophagy, causing damage to renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs). Puerarin has been shown to have...

Acute oxalate nephropathy: exploring the role of excess dietary oxalate intake
Acute oxalate nephropathy is a rare but important cause of severe acute kidney injury. We report here two cases presenting as unexplained AKI which...

Effect of calcium content of diet on crystal formation in urine of patients with calcium oxalate stones: a randomized crossover clinical trial
BackgroundPatients with idiopathic calcium oxalate stones are advised to consume a low-oxalate diet to prevent recurrence. In this study, on patients...

STUB1 exacerbates calcium oxalate-induced kidney injury by modulating reactive oxygen species-mediated cellular autophagy via regulating CFTR ubiquitination
The formation of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals in the kidneys leads to renal epithelial damage and the progression of crystalline nephropathy. This...
