    : A total of 10,669 patients were included with a 4.5% readmission rate. The study cohort was on average 49.5 years of age, 32.2% were obese, and 15.2% were smokers. The majority of patients were female (81.7%). Cases were predominantly outpatient procedures (65.6%). The most commonly performed proce...

    We hypothesize that CO in the MD, acting via both cGMP-dependent and -independent mechanisms, attenuates TGF by acting downstream from depolarization and calcium entry into the MD cells. In vitro, microdissected rabbit afferent arterioles and their MD were simultaneously perfused and TGF was measure...

    We used biochemical experiments coupled with bioinformatics approaches to explore the mechanisms of ACC formation controlled by amorphous calcium calcium-binding protein (ACCBP). Size-exclusion chromatography, chemical cross-linking experiments and negative staining electron microscopy reveal that A...
