J Urol
. 2015 Apr;
194(5):1463-72.
PMID: 25912494
Purpose: Urinary tract obstruction and reduced nephron number often occur together as a result of maldevelopment of the kidneys and the urinary tract. We determined the role of nephron number...

PMID: 25694483
Cystinosis is an inherited disorder resulting from a mutation in the CTNS gene, causing progressive proximal tubular cell flattening, the so-called swan-neck lesion (SNL), and eventual renal failure. To determine...

Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol
. 2014 Jun;
52(1):37-45.
PMID: 24922346
Exposure to hypoxia elicits an increase in minute ventilation that diminishes during continued exposure (roll-off). Brainstem N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) contribute to the initial hypoxia-induced...

. 2014 May;
184(7):1957-66.
PMID: 24815352
In polycystic kidney disease (PKD), renal parenchyma is destroyed by cysts, hypothesized to obstruct nephrons. A signature of unilateral ureteral obstruction, proximal tubular atrophy leads to formation of atubular glomeruli....

Am J Physiol Renal Physiol
. 2014 Mar;
306(11):F1381-90.
PMID: 24647716
Nephron number (N(glom)) and size (V(glom)) are correlated with risk for chronic cardiovascular and kidney disease and may be predictive of renal allograft viability. Unfortunately, there are no techniques to...

Am J Physiol Renal Physiol
. 2013 Oct;
305(12):F1736-46.
PMID: 24107422
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) in the adult mouse is the most widely used model of progressive renal disease: the proximal tubule is the nephron segment most severely affected and atubular...

. 2013 Aug;

PMID: 23949631
Most chronic kidney disease in children results from congenital or inherited disorders, which can be studied in mouse models. Following 2 weeks of unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) in the adult...

PMID: 23303407
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO), a widely used model of chronic kidney disease and congenital obstructive uropathy, causes proximal tubular injury and formation of atubular glomeruli. Because transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)...

PMID: 22535799
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) is the most widely used animal model of progressive renal disease. Although renal interstitial fibrosis is commonly used as an end point, recent studies reveal that...

. 2011 Mar;
301(1):F110-7.
PMID: 21429968
Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO), employed extensively as a model of progressive renal interstitial fibrosis, results in rapid parenchymal deterioration. Atubular glomeruli are formed in many renal disorders, but their identification...
