    • Bothrops leucurus venom induces nephrotoxicity in the isolated perfused kidney and cultured renal tubular epithelia 

      Oliveira de Morais, Isabel Cristina; Costa Torres, Alba Fabiola; Silva Pereira, Gustavo Jose da [UNIFESP]; Pereira, Ticiana Praciano; Pessoa Bezerra de Menezes, Ramon Roseo de Paula; Mello, Clarissa Perdigao; Coelho Jorge, Antonio Rafael; Binda, Alexandre Havt; Toyama, Marcos Hikari; Azul Monteiro, Helena Serra; Smaili, Soraya Soubhi [UNIFESP]; Costa Martins, Alice Maria (Elsevier B.V., 2013-01-01)
      Bites from snake (Bothrops genus) cause local tissue damage and systemic complications, which include alterations such as hemostatic system and acute renal failure (ARF). Recent studies suggest that ARF pathogenesis in ...

    • Efeito da lectina de Dioclea violacea na lesão renal aguda induzida pela gentamicina

      Acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by the abrupt decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) that can be caused by sepsis, burn, hemorrhage or nephrotoxic substances such as the aminoglycoside gentamicin (Genta) ...

    • Estudo de associação entre polimorfismos dos genes ERCC1 e ABCB1 e nefro-hepatotoxicidade à quimioterapia com Paclitaxel/Carboplatina em pacientes com câncer ginecológico 

      Costa Junior, Luiz Carlos Da [UNIFESP] (Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2020-03-05)
      Background: Paclitaxel/carboplatin combination is the standard chemotherapeutic protocol for gynecological cancers, but severe toxicities such as nephro and hepatotoxicity may compromise treatment. There is great interindividual ...
