Effect of sodium-potassium pump inhibition by ouabain on the permeability of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum

Zarogiannis, S.; Liakopoulos, V.; Hatzoglou, C.; Kourti, P.; Vogiatzidis, K.; Potamianos, S.; Eleftheriadis, T.; Gourgoulianis, K.; Molyvdas, P. A.; Stefanidis, I. (2007)

The permeability for small solutes and the ultrafiltration capacity of the peritoneum are essential for effective peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment. Elucidation of the factors that regulate these two properties is therefore ...

Diagnostic discordance for hepatitis C virus infection in hemodialysis: Correlations with clinical and laboratory features

Stefanidis, I.; Liakopoulos, V.; Rigopoulou, E. I.; Dalekos, G. N. (2005)

Visfatin levels are elevated but not correlated with insulin resistance in chronic haemodialysis patients

Papavassileiou, V.; Liakopoulos, V.; Dovas, S.; Giannopoulou, M.; Atmatzidis, T.; Zarogiannis, S.; Koukoulis, G.; Stefanidis, I. (2007)

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase depletes tryptophan, activates general control non-derepressible 2 kinase and down-regulates key enzymes involved in fatty acid synthesis in primary human CD4+ T cells

Eleftheriadis, T.; Pissas, G.; Antoniadi, G.; Liakopoulos, V.; Stefanidis, I. (2015)

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is expressed in antigen-presenting cells and exerts immunosuppressive effects on CD4+ T cells. One mechanism is through the inhibition of aerobic glycolysis. Another prerequisite for T-cell ...

Renal physiology in elderly persons with severe immobility syndrome

Musso, C.; Liakopoulos, V.; Pangre, N.; DiTrolio, J.; Jauregui, R.; De Miguel, R.; Stefanidis, I.; Imperiali, N.; Algranati, L. (2009)

The immobility syndrome (IS) is a common condition in the elderly and consists of a reduction in the capacity to perform daily activities because of motor function deterioration. This syndrome leads to characteristic ...

Significant intra- and interpatient variation in ultrafiltration achieved by icodextrin in APD patients

Liakopoulos, V.; Zarogiannis, S.; Eleftheriadis, T.; Dovas, S.; Stefanidis, I. (2007)

Aquaporin-1 and sodium transport in the peritoneal membrane - need for more research?

Liakopoulos, V.; Zarogiannis, S.; Eleftheriadis, T.; Stefanidis, I. (2006)

Resistin serum levels are increased but not correlated with insulin resistance in chronic hemodialysis patients

Filippidis, G.; Liakopoulos, V.; Mertens, P. R.; Kiropoulos, T.; Stakias, N.; Verikouki, C.; Patsidis, E.; Koukoulis, G.; Stefanidis, I. (2005)

Background/Aims: Insulin resistance is a well-known phenomenon in uremia. Resistin, a recently discovered insulin inhibitor secreted by adipocytes, is associated with obesity and insulin resistance in mice. Adiponectin, ...

Transtubular potassium concentration gradient: comparison between healthy old people and chronic renal failure patients

Musso, C.; Liakopoulos, V.; De Miguel, R.; Imperiali, N.; Algranati, L. (2006)

Transtubular potassium concentration gradient (TTKG) is an index of potassium secretory activity in the distal tubule. Since water reabsorption takes place in the distal tubule as well, urine potassium concentration is a ...

Aeromonas hydrophila as a causative organism in peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis: case report and review of the literature

Liakopoulos, V.; Arampatzis, S.; Kourti, P.; Tsolkas, T.; Zarogiannis, S.; Eleftheriadis, T.; Giannopoulou, M.; Stefanidis, I. (2011)

Most episodes of peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis could be attributed to a single organism, but in almost 10% of peritonitis episodes multiple organisms are identified. Polymicrobial peritonitis is often related ...
