Abstract
To assess changes in expression of renal epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) and NEDD4L, a ubiquitin ligase, in urinary extracellular vesicles (UEV) of pre-eclamptic women compared to normal pregnant controls.
Urine was collected from pre-eclamptic women (PE, n = 20) or during normal pregnancy (NP, n = 20). UEV were separated by differential ultracentrifugation. NEDD4L, α-ENaC and γ-ENaC were identified by immunoblotting.
There was no difference in the expression of NEDD4L (p = 0.17) and α-ENaC (p = 0.10). PE subjects showed increased expression of γ-ENaC by 6.9-fold compared to NP (p < 0.0001).
ENaC expression is upregulated in UEV of pre-eclamptic subjects but was not associated with changes in NEDD4L.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 July 2023.
All research outputs
#15,165,154
of 24,080,653 outputs
Outputs from Hypertension in Pregnancy
#126
of 231 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#98,026
of 205,433 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Hypertension in Pregnancy
#1
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,080,653 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 231 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 205,433 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
