DOI: 10.1002/nbm.70168
Abstract: The development of noninvasive MRI biomarkers as surrogates of histopathological features in kidney tissue requires detailed explorations of contrast. Therefore, we studied kidney diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) with a wide array of encodings, including flow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00261-017-1247-8
Abstract: ObjectivesContrast-induced acute kidney injury is a prevalent cause of renal failure, and the noninvasive tools to monitor its progress are lacking. We applied intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) DWI to measure the progressive changes in kidney… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2017.12.009
Abstract: We previously demonstrated that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) protected neonatal rat medulla oblongata from prenatal cigarette smoke exposure (CSE) via anti-apoptotic effect. The present work further investigated the involvement of anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects of H2S… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mbs.2017.04.008
Abstract: The metabolism of glucose provides most of the ATP required for energy-dependent transport processes. In the inner medulla of the mammalian kidney, limited blood flow and O2 supply yield low oxygen tension; therefore, a substantial… read more here.
