Genetics of focal segmental glomerulosclerosisRobert P Woroniecki
Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY, USA
Pediatr Nephrol 22:638-44. 2007..Those genes and proteins interactions seem to change susceptibility to kidney disease progression. Better understanding of their exact role in the development of FSGS may influence future therapies and outcomes in this complex disease...
Progression of glomerular and tubular disease in pediatricsRobert P Woroniecki
Division of Nephrology, Department of Pediatrics, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, The Children s Hospital at Montefiore, 3326 Bainbridge Ave, Bronx, NY 10467, USA
Semin Nephrol 29:412-24. 2009..Treatments presently are focused on delaying or preventing such progression, and are largely nonspecific. In pediatrics, such therapy is complicated further by pathophysiological issues that render children a unique population...
Urinary proteome of steroid-sensitive and steroid-resistant idiopathic nephrotic syndrome of childhoodRobert P Woroniecki
Section of Pediatric Nephrology, Department of Pediatrics, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY 10467, USA
Am J Nephrol 26:258-67. 2006..Characterization of the proteins of interest identified by this proteomic approach with prospective clinical validation may yield a valuable clinical tool for the non-invasive prediction of treatment response and prognosis...
Urinary cytokines and steroid responsiveness in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome of childhoodRobert P Woroniecki
Pediatric Nephrology, The Children s Hospital at Montefiore, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY 10467, USA
Am J Nephrol 28:83-90. 2008..Our objective was to distinguish SRNS from SSNS and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) from minimal change disease (MCD) on the basis of urinary cytokine profile...
Laser capture microdissection of kidney tissueRobert P Woroniecki
Department of Pediatrics, The Children s Hospital at Montefiore, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York, NY, USA
Methods Mol Biol 466:73-82. 2009..In this chapter we present a "cook-book" practical approach of utilizing LCM in combination with RNA isolation technique in downstream applications in nephrology...
Outcome of dialysis in children with human immunodeficiency virus infectionRoberto Gordillo
Division of Pediatric Nephrology, Children s Hospital at Montefiore, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY, USA
Pediatr Nephrol 24:171-5. 2009..Decreased BMI and cardiovascular disease may be associated with increased mortality in children with HIV on RRT...
Rituximab in post-transplant pediatric recurrent focal segmental glomerulosclerosisJuhi Kumar
Weill Cornell Medical College, Helmsley Towers 3, Box 176, New York, NY 10021, USA
Pediatr Nephrol 28:333-8. 2013..Rituximab (RTX), a monoclonal antibody to the protein CD20, is being used for treatment of recurrent FSGS (recFSGS) but pediatric experience is limited...
Association of steroid and cyclosporin resistance in focal segmental glomerulosclerosisIbrahim F Shatat
Pediatric Nephrology, Children s Hospital at Montefiore, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, NY 10467, USA
Pediatr Nephrol 22:834-9. 2007..Genetic testing for known mutations associated with resistance to immunosuppression may be advisable before treatment of SR-FSGS patients with cyclosporin. Prospective studies should be conducted to explore this hypothesis...
The role of osteopontin in the development of albuminuriaJohan Lorenzen
Division of Nephrology, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, New York 10461, USA
J Am Soc Nephrol 19:884-90. 2008..Taken together, these results indicate that Opn plays an important role in the development of albuminuria, possibly by modulating podocyte signaling and motility...
