The effect of ischemia induced acute renal failure (ARF) on the transport of phosphate (Pi) after early (15-30 min) and prolonged (60 min) ischemia in the brush border membrane vesicles (BBMV) from rat renal cortex was studied. Sodium-dependent transport of Pi declined significantly and progressively due to ischemia. Western blot analysis of BBM from ischemic rats showed decreased expression of NaPi-2. A compensatory increase was observed in Pi uptake in BBMV from contralateral kidneys. There was no significant difference in NaPi-2 expression between BBMV from sham and contralateral kidneys. Early blood reperfusion for 15 min after 30 min ischemia caused further decline in Pi uptake. Prolonged reperfusion for 120 min caused partial reversal of transport activities in 30-min ischemic rats. However, no improvement in the transport of Pi was observed in 60-min ischemic rats after 120 min of blood reperfusion. Kinetic studies showed that the effect of ischemia and blood reperfusion was dependent on the Vmax of the Na-Pi transporter. Western blot analysis showed increased expression of NaPi-2 in the BBMs from ischemia-reperfusion animals. Further, a shift in the association of Na ions to transport one molecule of Pi was observed under different extracellular Na concentrations [Na]o. Feeding rats with low Pi diet and/or treatment with thyroid hormone (T3) prior to ischemia resulted in increased basal Pi transport. Ischemia caused similar decline in Pi transport in BBM from LPD and/or T3 animals. However, recovery in these animals was faster than the normal Pi diet fed (NPD) animals. The study suggests a change in the intrinsic properties of the Na-Pi transporter in rat kidneys due to ischemia. The study also indicates that treatment with T3 and feeding LPD prior to ischemia caused faster recovery of phosphate uptake due to ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Nimodipine (NIMO) is used to treat ischemic nerve injury from subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), but its low aqueous solubility limits clinical safety and bioavailability. This study aims to improve NIMO's solubility by preparing inclusion complexes with sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD), reducing the limitations of Nimotop injection, including vascular irritation, toxicity, and poor dilution stability. The NIMO-SBE-β-CD inclusion complex (NIMO-CD) was characterized in both liquid and solid states through phase solubility studies and methods including DSC, FT-IR, XRD, and SEM.

Myosin light chain 9 mediates graft fibrosis after pediatric liver transplantation through TLR4/MYD88/NF-κB signaling.

Background & Aims: The incidence of graft fibrosis is elevated following pediatric liver transplantation (pLT) and is influenced by cold ischemic time (CIT). Myosin light chain 9 (MYL9), a member of the myosin family, could act on hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and induce a transition to active phase. We hypothesized that cold ischemic injury could stimulate MYL9 expression and lead to graft fibrosis.

Background: Ischemic stroke (IS) is known for its high incidence, disability, and mortality, and there is an urgent need to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms and develop novel treatment strategies.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the mechanisms of the novel circMap2k1/miR-135b-5p/Pidd1 axis in the treatment of IS progression with fluoxetine.

Methods: The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was done in adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and followed by fluoxetine treatment and the injection of adeno-associated virus (AAV)-sh-ctr and AAV-sh-circMap2k1 into the bilateral hippocampal tissues of rats.

The role of the dorsomedial hypothalamus in the cardiogenic sympathetic reflex in the Sprague Dawley rat.

Myocardial ischemia causes the production and release of metabolites such as bradykinin, which stimulates cardiac spinal sensory afferents, causing chest pain and an increase in sympathetic activity referred to as the cardiogenic sympathetic afferent reflex. While the brain stem nuclei, such as the nucleus tractus solitarius and rostral ventrolateral medulla, are essential in the cardiogenic sympathetic afferent reflex, the role of other supramedullary nuclei in the cardiogenic sympathetic afferent reflex are not clear. The dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus (DMH) is involved in cardiovascular sympathetic regulation and plays an important role in the sympathetic response to stressful stimuli.
