1. SGLT-2 inhibitors in diabetes: a focus on renoprotection
SUMMARY Type 2 diabetes mellitus is an important public health problem, with a significant impact on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and an important risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Various hypoglycemic therapies have proved to be beneficial to clinical outcomes, while others have failed to provide an improvement in cardiovascular and renal fa

2. Benzbromarone in the treatment of gout
Abstract Background Benzbromarone is a uricosuric drug that has been used in the treatment of gout over the last 30 years. Due to its potent inhibition of the dominant apical (luminal) urate exchanger in the human proximal tubule URAT1, it reduces the urate reabsorption, diminishing serum urate levels and therefore preventing gout flares. Main body of the

3. Inhibition of the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 in the elderly: clinical and mechanistic insights into safety and efficacy
RESUMO A prevalência da diabetes mellitus tipo 2 em idosos cresceu muito na última década. A redução na sensibilidade à insulina e na capacidade secretora, ganho de peso, sarcopenia e adiposidade elevada são todas alterações metabólicas e corporais comuns entre a população idosa. Essas mudanças críticas favorecem o aumento no risco de hipoglice

4. Morphological and histological characterization of sexual segment of the kidney in Notomabuya frenata (Cope, 1862) and Aspronema dorsivittatum (Cope, 1862) (Squamata, Mabuyidae)
Abstract The kidneys in two viviparous species of Neotropical lizards, Notomabuya frenata and Aspronema dorsivittatum (Mabuyidae), were investigated by light and scanning electron microscopy in order to determine the presence of the sexual segment of the kidney (SSK) and to study its morphology. The individuals used in this study belong to the Herpetological

5. Tadalafil protector effect during ischemia-reperfusion in rats
Abstract Purpose: To evaluate histological parameters in rat renal tissue after tadalafil use during hot ischemia for 45 minutes and reperfusion for 24 hours. Methods: Twenty rats were divided into 2 groups. In the experimental group 10 mg/kg of tadalafil was used per gavage before the procedure. All cases underwent left partial nephrectomy, followed by

6. Serum uric acid and disorders of glucose metabolism: the role of glycosuria
Hyperuricemia has been associated with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome. We studied the association between hyperuricemia and glycemic status in a nonrandomized sample of primary care patients. This was a cross-sectional study of adults ≥20 years old who were members of a community-based health care program. Hyperuricemia was defined

7. Polyphenols of Mangifera indica modulate arsenite-induced cytotoxicity in a human proximal tubule cell line
Inorganic arsenic is an ubiquitous environmental contaminant able to cause severe pathologies in humans, including kidney disorders. The possible protective effects of Mangifera indica L., Anacardiaceae, stem bark extract (MSBE) and some mango phenols on the cytotoxicity of arsenite (AsIII) in the proximal tubule cell line HK-2 was investigated. In cells cul

8. Essential regulatory elements for NHE3 gene transcription in renal proximal tubule cells
The objectives of the present study were to identify the cis-elements of the promoter absolutely required for the efficient rat NHE3 gene transcription and to locate positive and negative regulatory elements in the 5’-flanking sequence (5’FS), which might modulate the gene expression in proximal tubules, and to compare this result to those reported for i

9. Analysis of nucleus activity in malpighian tubules of Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) larvae by critical electrolyte concentration
Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius) has cryptonephridial type Malphigian tubules (MT). This type of MT is characterized by the penetration of the distal part of the MT into the external walls of the rectum, which is usually lined with a perinephral membrane. The MT is divided into three differentiated regions: proximal, middle and distal. In this study, our obj

10. Efeitos não-genômicos dos hormônios esteróides - aldosterona e corticosterona - sobre a acidificação do túbulo proximal (S2) de ratos: estudos de microperfusão tubular e capilar, in vivo . / Nongenomic effect of steroid hormones - aldosterone and corticosterone - on acidification of rat proximal tubule (S2) studies by tubular and capillary microperfusion, in vivo .
The purpose was to determine if aldosterone and corticosterone act on the acidification of proximal tubule and if these hormonal effects are genomic and/or nongenomic. Bicarbonate reabsorption was evaluated by microperfusion. Aldosterone and corticosterone caused a significant increase in JHCO3-. In the presence of ethanol, actinomycin D, cycloheximide or es

11. Action of ANP on the nongenomic effects of aldosterone on the Na+/H+ exchanger in the S3 segment of proximal tubule of rat: studies in isolated tubules role of cytosolic calcium. / Ação do ANP no efeito não genômico da aldosterona sobre o trocador Na+/H+ no segmento S3 do túbulo proximal de rato - Estudos em túbulos isolados: função do cálcio citosólico.
The effects of aldosterone and ANP(2 min preincubation) on the intracellular pH recovery rate (pHirr) after the acid load induced by NH4Cl and on the [Ca2+]i were investigated in isolated rat S3 segment. The basal pHi was 7.20 + ou - 0.009(n=47/209) and the basal pHirr via the Na+/H+ exchanger was 0.195 + ou - 0.012 pHi/min(n=16/96). Aldosterone(10-12M) caus

12. Study of nuclear texture of Wistar rats after lead poisonig / Estudo da textura nuclear em ratos Wistar intoxicados por chumbo
Lead (Pb) is one of the most important naturally occurring and ubiquitous heavy metals, with toxic effects after acute or chronic exposure on liver, the nervous system, hematopoesis, and, especially the kidneys. The aim was to study the time course of the renal tubular sodium handling during chronic experimental lead poisoning in rats comparing it with the m
