Role of the renal androgen receptor in sex differences in ammonia metabolism
American Journal of Physiology, Renal PhysiologyAutumn N. Harris, et al.
2021-11-01
There are sex differences in renal ammonia metabolism and structure, many of which are mediated by testosterone. The goal of the present study was to determine the role of renal expression of testosterone's canonical receptor, androgen receptor (AR), in these sexual dimorphisms.
Regulation of Rhcg, an ammonia transporter, by aldosterone in the kidney
The Journal of EndocrinologyKoji Eguchi, et al.

Rhesus C glycoprotein (Rhcg), an ammonia transporter, is a key molecule in urinary acid excretion and is expressed mainly in the intercalated cells (ICs) of the renal collecting duct. In the present study we investigated the role of aldosterone in the regulation of Rhcg expression.
Prevalence and correlates of sleep apnea among US Veterans with chronic kidney disease
Journal of Sleep ResearchMuna T. Canales, et al.
2020-01-07
The prevalence and correlates of sleep apnea (SA) among Veterans with chronic kidney disease (CKD), a population at high risk of both SA and CKD, are unknown. We performed a cross-sectional analysis of 248 Veterans (18–89 years) selected only for presence of moderate to severe CKD. All participants underwent full, unattended polysomnography, measurement of renal function and a sleepiness questionnaire.
