Renal fibrosis is the most important feature of the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays an important role in renal fibrosis. Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 2 (Dock2) is involved in the immune system and the development of a variety of fibrotic diseases. However, its specific role in renal fibrosis remains unclear.

Background: Patients diagnosed with congenital kidney malformations are at an increased risk of developing hypertension, proteinuria, and progressing to chronic kidney disease (CKD). The present study aimed to determine the frequency of masked hypertension and ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) in patients with congenital kidney malformations.
Methods: The study included 174 patients with congenital kidney malformations (48 patients with unilateral renal agenesis (URA), 40 patients with ectopic kidney (EK), 36 patients with horseshoe kidney (HK), 31 patients with multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK), 19 patients with unilateral renal hypoplasia (URH), and 45 healthy controls.

We report a case of a very rare association of adrenal adenoma, unilateral adrenal hyperplasia, and bilateral renal artery stenosis. A 61-year-old man with a remarkable history of two severe strokes was admitted to the Nephrology department with hypertension associated with severe hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis. Doppler of renal arteries was not conclusive, so contrast-enhanced scanning was done revealing a left adrenal adenoma, right adrenal hyperplasia, and bilateral moderate renal artery stenosis.

This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of Takayasu's arteritis (TA) with carotid artery occlusion in children. This study collected clinical data and follow-up information on the first diagnosis and treatment of c-TA combined with carotid artery occlusion in pediatric patients at the Children's Hospital affiliated with the Capital Institute of Pediatrics and Inner Mongolia Medical University Affiliated Hospital from 2013 to 2023. This study included four female patients with a mean age of (13.

Background: Adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) exert beneficial effects on kidney disease through a paracrine mechanism. However, the specific molecular mechanisms by which ADSCs treat renal fibrosis are not yet fully understood. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the therapeutic effects of ADSC-derived extracellular vesicles (ADSC-EVs) on the progression of renal fibrosis and their underlying mechanisms.
