Soluble (pro)renin receptor as a potential therapy for diabetes insipidus.

American Journal of Physiology. Renal Physiology

Abstract

The antidiuretic hormone vasopressin (VP) is produced by the hypothalamus and is stored and secreted from the posterior pituitary. VP acts via VP type 2 receptors (V2Rs) on the basolateral membrane of principal cells of the collecting duct (CD) to regulate fluid permeability. The VP-evoked endocrine pathway is essential in determining urine concentrating capability. For example, a defect in any component of the VP signaling pathway can result in polyuria, polydipsia, and hypotonic urine, collectively termed diabetes insipidus (DI). A lack of VP production precipitates central diabetes insipidus (CDI), which can be managed effectively by VP supplementation. A majority of cases of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) result from V2R mutations that impair receptor sensitivity. No specific therapy is currently available for management of NDI. Evidence is evolving that (pro)renin receptor (PRR), a newly identified member of the renin-angiotensin system, is capable of regulating VP production and action. As such, PRR should be considered strongly as a therapeutic target for treating CDI and NDI. The current review will summarize recent advances in understanding the physiology of renal and central PRR as it relates to the two types of...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
