Background: As ferroptosis is a key factor in renal fibrosis (RF), iron deposition monitoring may help evaluating RF. The capability of quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) for detecting iron deposition in RF remains uncertain.

Purpose: To investigate the potential of QSM to detect iron deposition in RF.

Background: Multifrequency MR elastography (mMRE) enables noninvasive quantification of renal stiffness in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Manual segmentation of the kidneys on mMRE is time-consuming and prone to increased interobserver variability.

Purpose: To evaluate the performance of mMRE combined with automatic segmentation in assessing CKD severity.

Nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NFAT5) is a transcription factor known for its role in osmotic stress adaptation in the renal inner medulla, due to the osmotic gradient that is generated between the renal cortex and renal inner medulla. However, its broader implications in kidney injury and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are less understood. Here we used two different Cre deleter mice (Ksp1.

Urinary obstruction causes injury to the renal medulla, impairing the ability to concentrate urine, and increasing the risk of progressive kidney disease. However, the regenerative capacity of the renal medulla after reversal of obstruction is poorly understood. To investigate this, we developed a mouse model of reversible urinary obstruction.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how MRI-based T relaxation time measurements can detect changes in kidney structure caused by radiation.
  • Researchers used two mouse models to expose kidneys to different radiation methods and analyzed MRI results alongside histological and serum biochemistry assessments.
  • The findings showed increased T values in specific kidney areas of irradiated mice compared to controls, indicating that MRI can identify radiation damage before other symptoms appear.
