renal artery obstruction/tyrosine

A 63-year-old male was diagnosed as having chronic phase CML in 2001. He obtained a major molecular response with imatinib (IM). In 2012, amulodipin was started for hypertension. In January 2013, IM was switched to nilotinib (NIL) in a clinical trial, and in February 2015, NIL was discontinued

Drug-induced hypertension is one of the commonest causes of secondary hypertension. In the last few years, secondary hypertension due to tyrosine kinase inhibitors, from the vascular endothelial growth factor class, has been recognized to be an important cause of hypertension, as well as

Previously authors have recently described an association between nilotinib therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and severe peripheral artery disease, coronary artery disease and sudden death. We present a case report of a male patient with CML who received nilotinib therapy. He developed

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been recently introduced for treatment of different malignancies. Various cardiovascular toxicities have been reported with TKIs with hypertension being the most common adverse cardiovascular event. We report a case of a 60-year-old woman who developed left

OBJECTIVE Renal reperfusion injury occurs after the blood flow to the ischemic kidney is re-established under various clinical conditions, such as organ transplantation, renal artery stenosis, embolic disease, and the repair of descending aortic. The current study aims to explore the effects of src

OBJECTIVE Renal artery stenosis (RAS) and acute renal failure may be due to the intimal hyperplasia and sympathetic fibers of the renal artery (RA), respectively. The purpose of this study was to characterize arterial wall and sympathetic innervation of the human RA. METHODS Fifty-two fresh human RA

OBJECTIVE This study was designed to observe the efficacy and safety of renal denervation from the inside and outside of renal arteries. METHODS Fourteen beagles were randomly divided into a control group (n = 4) and treatment group (n = 10). One renal artery in every beagle of the treatment group

Epidemiological studies reported that diabetic patients had a lower incidence of aortic dissection (AD), but the definite mechanism is unknown. We aim to investigate the possible protective effect of diabetes mellitus (DM) on AD formation with an emphasis on autonomic remodeling. Streptozotocin
