Posttraumatic microalbuminuria may be caused by either charge-or size-selective
alterations in the glomerular filtration barrier, or both, and/or to a reduction in proximal …

The fractional clearances (θ) for FITC-Ficoll and albumin were estimated in isolated
perfused rat kidneys in which the tubular activity was inhibited by low temperature (8° C) …

In several models of glomerular injury and in studies with tracers that affect systemic or
regional hemodynamics, renal perfusion rate and perfusion pressure are often markedly …

This is the first functional study of glomerular size and charge selectivity in mice. The aim
was to investigate the controversial issue of glomerular permselectivity in animals exposed …

Fractional clearance of high molecular weight proteins in conscious rats using a continuous-
infusion method. Background The purported existence of “large pores” in the glomerular …

The size and charge-selective properties of the glomerular barrier are partly controversial.
Glomerular sieving coefficients (θ) for proteins have rarely been determined noninvasively …

A theoretical model was developed to relate the size selectivity of the glomerular barrier to
the structural characteristics of the individual layers of the capillary wall. Thicknesses and …

This study was performed to investigate the glomerular permeability alterations responsible
for the microalbuminuria occurring in endotoxemia and during anaphylactic shock. In …

This study was performed to evaluate the alterations of glomerular filtration barrier
characteristics following acute renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Ischemia was induced in …

The proteinuric actions of protamine sulfate (PS) have classically been, at least partly,
attributed to alterations of the negatively charged glomerular endothelial glycocalyx. To …
