Reduced insulin receptor protein levels have been reported in the kidney cortex from diabetic humans and animals. We recently that, targeted deletion of (IR) proximal tubules (PT) resulted hyperglycemia non-obese mice. To elucidate mechanism, we examined human tubule cells (hPTC) C57BL/6 mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD, 60% fat for 20 weeks). Immunoblotting revealed a significantly lower level IR HFD compare to normal chow (NCD). Furthermore, blunted rise p-AKT308 was observed response...

Isolated renal mucormycosis (IRM) is a potentially fatal disease affecting immunocompromised hosts. IRM apparently immunocompetent patients rare, with few previous reports, mostly from India. We describe 10 cases of bilateral no underlying risk factors.

We predicted the outcome of visual internal urethrotomy (VIU) by measuring percentage lumen narrowing at stricture site on retrograde urethrography (RGU).From January 1991 to June 2002 patients with primary bulbar urethral strictures who underwent VIU were selected for study. Patients a history intervention, complete block and greater than 2 cm excluded from Urethral diameter area maximum stenosis normal distal urethra was measured RGU Vernier caliper derived. followed 3 times monthly...
