Sorbent reactor for extracorporeal blood treatment systems, peritoneal dialysis systems, and other body fluid treatment systems

Systems and methods for extracorporeal processing of blood or other body fluid for the treatment of conditions, such as sepsis, autoimmune disease, or toxemia related to kidney failure, liver failure, or drug overdose are provided. In an extracorporeal treatment system, a fraction of a body fluid is passed into a treatment fluid, at least a portion of which is then passed through a sorbent suspension reactor for treatment by a sorbent suspension. The treatment fluid circuit can be maintained at a fixed volume, which enables accurate fluid balance between the patient and the extracorporeal circuit. Some or all of the treatment fluid, optionally also containing nutrients and / or therapeutic agents, is returned to the patient. In a peritoneal dialysis system, dialysate is passed into a patient's peritoneal cavity, recovered from the cavity, passed through a sorbent suspension reactor in accordance with the invention, and returned to the cavity.

Method for the early detection of renal injury

A method and kit for detecting the immediate or early onset of renal disease and injury, including renal tubular cell injury, utilizing NGAL as an immediate or early on-set biomarker in a sample of blood serum. NGAL is a small secreted polypeptide that is protease resistant and consequently readily detected in the blood serum following renal tubule cell injury. NGAL protein expression is detected predominantly in proximal tubule cells, in a punctuate cytoplasmic distribution reminiscent of a secreted protein. The appearance NGAL in the serum is related to the dose and duration of renal ischemia and nephrotoxemia, and is diagnostic of renal tubule cell injury and renal failure. NGAL detection is also a useful marker for monitoring the nephrotoxic side effects of drugs or other therapeutic agents.

Bioartificial filtration device for filtering blood to mimic kidney function

A novel cell seeded hollow fiber bioreactor is described as a potential bioartificial kidney. Endothelial cells along with pericyte, vascular smooth muscle, and / or mesangial cells or any mesenchymally derived support cells are seeded along a hollow fiber in a perfused bioreactor to reproduce the ultrafiltration function and transport function of the kidney. Maintenance of tissue specific function and ultrastructure suggest that this bioreactor provides an economical device for treating renal failure.

A method and kit for detecting the early onset of renal tubular cell injury

An early-onset method and kit for detecting renal tubular cell injury, using NGAL as an early urinary biomarker. NGAL is a small secreted polypeptide that is protease resistant and thus readily detected in urine following tubular cell injury. NGAL protein expression was mainly detected in the proximal tubule cells, which resembled a secreted protein with a punctate distribution in the cytoplasm. Apparent NGAL in urine correlates with the amount and duration of renal ischemia and nephrotoxicemia and is a diagnostic feature of tubular cell injury and renal failure. NGAL detection is also a useful marker for monitoring nephrotoxic side effects of drugs or other therapeutic agents.

Ion sensor for long term use in complex medium

Devices and methods for measuring a target ion concentration uses an electrode pair. The pair includes a working electrode and a reference electrode. The working and reference electrodes are ion-selective electrodes (ISEs). The reference ISE can include a sodium ISE. The ISE pair interacts with body fluids where a target ion concentration changes more than sodium ion concentration over time. Some ISE membranes of a pair vary essentially only in the ionophore. An ISE pair can determine the ratio of a target ion concentration to sodium ion concentration in vivo. Periodic measurement of sodium concentration in drawn blood can be used to calibrate an ISE pair and provide target ion concentration as an output. Or, a potassium / sodium ISE pair beneficially monitors potassium concentration changes over time in heart- or kidney-failure patients. Then, manual or automatic titration of a diuretic material can be implemented to maintain a desired potassium concentration.

Treatment for renal failure

A method of increasing renal function in a patient operates by stimulation of perivascular sympathetic nerves found in the vicinity of the hepatic portal vein and the hepatic artery. The method can be used as a treatment for renal failure or chronic kidney disease. Alternatively, the method can be used as a prophylactic treatment for preventing contrast-induced nephropathy or any other toxic nephropathy, which can result in renal failure. The perivascular sympathetic nerves can be stimulated by applying energy, such as electrical energy, light, vibration, and ultrasonic vibration, to the perivascular sympathetic nerves. Various methods are described for stimulating the perivascular sympathetic nerves using electrodes that are placed using minimally-invasive techniques.

Cyclohexane analogues as gpr119 agonists

This invention relates to a series of substituted cyclohexane containing analogues which are agonists of GPR119 intended to treat metabolic diseases mediated by GPR119 including Type I & II diabetes mellitus. Diabetes mellitus is an ever-increasing threat to human health causing various complications (blindness, kidney failure, neuropathy, heart attack, stroke, etc.). Recently it was found that activation of GPR119 which is highly expressed in pancreatic beta cells causes glucose dependent insulin secretion and GLP-1 release. Many pharmaceuticals are currently developing GPR119 agonists and herein we disclose alternative GPR119 agonists. Our invention describes GPR119 agonists having structural Formula (I), pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate of Formula (I), isomer or prodrug of Formula (I), and combination therapy of Formula (I) with other anti-diabetic drugs like DPP-IV inhibitors and / or insulin sensitizers.
