Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 294:F739-47. 2008..These results suggest that downregulation of netrin-1 in vascular endothelial cells may promote endothelial cell activation and infiltration of leukocytes into the kidney thereby enhancing tubular injury...
Targeted disruption of the meprin metalloproteinase beta gene protects against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in miceJohn Bylander
Deparment of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Penn State University College of Medicine, 500 Univ Drive, Hershey, PA 17033, USA
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 294:F480-90. 2008..These studies indicate that meprin-beta is important in the pathogenesis of renal injury following I/R and that the redistribution of active meprin-alpha/beta is a major contributor to renal injury and subsequent inflammation...
Netrin-1 overexpression protects kidney from ischemia reperfusion injury by suppressing apoptosisWeiwei Wang
Division of Nephrology, Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, 500 University Drive, Hershey, PA 17033, USA
Am J Pathol 175:1010-8. 2009..These results suggest that netrin-1 protects renal tubular epithelial cells against ischemia reperfusion-induced injury by increasing proliferation and suppressing apoptosis...

Division of Nephrology, Pennsylvania State College of Medicine, 500 Univ Dr, Hershey, PA 17033, USA
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 293:F325-32. 2007..These results indicate that cisplatin and LPS act synergistically to produce nephrotoxicity which may involve proinflammatory cytokine production...
TNFR2-mediated apoptosis and necrosis in cisplatin-induced acute renal failureGanesan Ramesh
Division of Nephrology, Pennsylvania State College of Medicine, Hershey 17033, USA
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 285:F610-8. 2003..These results indicate that TNFR2 participates in cisplatin-induced renal injury in mice and may play an important role in TNF-alpha-mediated inflammation in the kidney in response to cisplatin...

Division of Nephrology, The Penn State College of Medicine, Hershey, Pennsylvania 17033, USA
Kidney Int 65:490-9. 2004..CONCLUSION: These results indicate that salicylate acts via inhibition of TNF-alpha production to reduce cisplatin nephrotoxicity. The inhibition of TNF-alpha production may be mediated via stabilization of I kappa B...
