Do glomerular filtration rate estimates decrease during high altitude expedition but increase with Lake Louise acute mountain sickness scores?
Renal function declines when ascending from low to high altitude. Cystatin C-based eGFR decreases during ascent in high altitude expedition but increases with AMS scores. For individuals with eGFR <40 mL min(-1) 1.73 m(-2), caution may be necessary when planning trips to high altitude above 4500 m above sea level.
The shRNA targeting GnT-V gene can reduce the expression of GnT-V mRNA and inhibit the proliferation of PC-3 cells in vitro.
