Ferroportin in monocytes of hemodialysis patients and its associations with hepcidin, inflammation, markers of iron status and resistance to erythropoietin
(2014)
Disturbed iron homeostasis contributes to resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Increased hepcidin, which downregulates the iron exporter ferroportin, has been incriminated. ...
Serum copper and ferroportin in monocytes of hemodialysis patients are both decreased but unassociated
(2014)
Disturbed iron homeostasis contributes to resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Although increased hepcidin, which downregulates the iron exporter ferroportin, had been ...
Disturbances of acquired immunity in hemodialysis patients
(2007)
Acquired immunity disturbances in hemodialysis (HD) patients are many and diverse. They are caused by uremia per se, the HD procedure, chronic renal failure complications, and therapeutic interventions for their treatment. ...
Malate dehydrogenase-2 inhibitor LW6 promotes metabolic adaptations and reduces proliferation and apoptosis in activated human T-cells
(2015)
Activated T cells rely on aerobic glycolysis and glutaminolysis in order to proliferate and differentiate into effector cells. Therefore, intervention in these metabolic pathways inhibits proliferation. The aim of the ...
Sternal instability in a hemodialysis patient with secondary hyperparathyroidism
(2014)
A 77-year-old man, 11 years under chronic hemodialysis treatment for chronic renal failure of unknown origin, presented with anterior chest pain, dyspnea with paradoxical breathing, and sternal instability after a simple ...
Pulmonary renal syndrome in an adult patient with Henoch-Shönlein purpura
(2006)
Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a small vessel vasculitis characterized by purpuric skin rash, haematuria, abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding and arthritis. Nephritis is more frequent and severe in adults than in ...
Inverse Association of Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D With Markers of Inflammation and Suppression of Osteoclastic Activity in Hemodialysis Patients
(2012)
Introduction. In hemodialysis patients, 25-hydroxyvitamin D conversion to active 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D by the kidneys is very limited. The expression of both vitamin D receptor and 1 alpha-hydroxylase in cells of the ...
Factors affecting effectiveness of vaccination against hepatitis B virus in hemodialysis patients
(2014)
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major global health problem. Despite the success of the general measures against blood transmitted infections in hemodialysis (HD) units, the prevalence of HBV infection among the HD patients ...
Differential diagnosis of hyperkalemia: an update to a complex problem
(2012)
Hyperkalemia is a relative common and sometimes life threatening electorlyte disorder. Although its symptomatic treatment is relatively easy, since precise therapeutic algorithms are available, its differential diagnosis ...
T-Cell zeta chain expression, phosphorylation and degradation and their role in T-cell signal transduction and immune response regulation in health and disease
(2006)
T-cell zeta chain expression, phosphorylation and degradation and their role in T-cell signal transduction and immune response regulation in health and disease. Zeta chain is a stable constituent of the antigen specific ...
