Brattleboro rats have impaired apical membrane water permeability regulation in the outer medullary collecting duct principal cells
(2016)Vasopressin (AVP) regulates the body salt-water balance. Brattleboro rats carry an AVP gene mutation resulting in a recessive form of central diabetes insipidus, being ideal for AVP deficiency studies. Herein, we studied ... -
Comparison of isotonic activation of cell volume regulation in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells and in kidney outer medullary collecting duct principal cells
(2021)In disease states, mesothelial cells are exposed to variable osmotic conditions, with high osmotic stress exerted by peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluids. They contain unphysiologically high concentrations of glucose and result ... -
The effect of plasma osmolality and baroreceptor loading status on postexercise heat loss responses
(2016)We examined the separate and combined effects of plasma osmolality and baroreceptor loading status on postexercise heat loss responses. Nine young males completed a 45-min treadmill exercise protocol at 58 ± 2% V O2 peak, ... -
Pleural effusion osmolality correlation with pH and glucose level of pleural fluid and its effects on the pleural membrane permeability
(2021)Background and aim: Pleural effusions (PE) are a common clinical entity resulting from pathologies that affect the pleural space such as congestive heart failure, malignancy and pneumonia. The osmolality of the pleural ... -
Tear film osmolarity in subjects with acute allergic rhinoconjunctivitis
(2018)Background/Aim: Acute allergic rhinoconjuctivitis is the most common form of ocular allergies. The pathogenetic mechanisms are based on an immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated hypersensitivity reaction. On the other hand, tear ...
