Abstract
Vascular dysfunction induced by uremia has 4 main aspects. (1) Atherosclerosis is increased. Intima-media thickness is increased, and animal studies have established that uremia accelerates atherosclerosis. Uremic toxins are involved in several steps of atherosclerosis. Leukocyte activation is stimulated by guanidines, advanced glycation end products (AGE), p-cresyl sulfate, platelet diadenosine polyphosphates, and indoxyl sulfate. Endothelial adhesion molecules are stimulated by indoxyl sulfate. Migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) are stimulated by local inflammation which could be triggered by indoxyl sulfate and AGE. Uremia is associated with an increase in von Willebrand factor, thrombomodulin, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, and matrix metalloproteinases. These factors contribute to thrombosis and plaque destabilization. There is also a decrease in nitric oxide (NO) availability, due to asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), AGE, and oxidative stress. Moreover, circulating endothelial microparticles (EMP) are increased in uremia, and inhibit the NO pathway. EMP are induced in vitro by indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate. (2) Arterial stiffness occurs due to the loss of compliance of the vascular wall which induces an increase in pulse pressure leading to left ventricular hypertrophy and a decrease in coronary perfusion. Implicated uremic toxins are ADMA, AGE, and oxidative stress. (3) Vascular calcifications are increased in uremia. Their formation involves a transdifferentiation process of VSMC into osteoblast-like cells. Implicated uremic toxins are mainly inorganic phosphate, as well as reactive oxygen species, tumor necrosis factor and leptin. (4) Abnormalities of vascular repair and neointimal hyperplasia are due to VSMC proliferation and lead to severe reduction of vascular lumen. Restenosis after coronary angioplasty is higher in dialysis than in nondialysis patients. Arteriovenous fistula stenosis is the most common cause of thrombosis. Uremic toxins such as indoxyl sulfate and some guanidine compounds inhibit endothelial proliferation and wound repair. Endothelial progenitor cells which contribute to vessel repair are decreased and impaired in uremia, related to high serum levels of β(2)-microglobulin and indole-3 acetic acid. Overall, there is a link between kidney function and cardiovascular risk, as emphasized by recent meta-analyses. Moreover, an association has been reported between cardiovascular mortality and uremic toxins such as indoxyl sulfate, p-cresol and p-cresyl sulfate.

Abstract
During chronic kidney disease (CKD), solutes called uremic solutes, accumulate in blood and tissues of patients. We developed an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of several uremic solutes of clinical interest in biological fluids: phenol (Pol), indole-3-acetic acid (3-IAA), p-cresol (p-C), indoxyl sulfate (3-INDS) and p-cresol sulfate (p-CS). These solutes were separated by ion-pairing HPLC using an isocratic flow and quantified with a fluorescence detection. The mean serum concentrations of 3-IAA, 3-INDS and p-CS were 2.12, 1.03 and 13.03 μM respectively in healthy subjects, 3.21, 17.45 and 73.47 μM in non hemodialyzed stage 3-5 CKD patients and 5.9, 81.04 and 120.54 μM in hemodialyzed patients (stage 5D). We found no Pol and no p-C in any population. The limits of quantification for 3-IAA, 3-INDS, and p-CS were 0.83, 0.72, and 3.2 μM respectively. The within-day CVs were between 1.23 and 3.12% for 3-IAA, 0.98 and 2% for 3-INDS, and 1.25 and 3.01% for p-CS. The between-day CVs were between 1.78 and 5.48% for 3-IAA, 1.45 and 4.54% for 3-INDS, and 1.19 and 6.36% for p-CS. This HPLC method permits the simultaneous and quick quantification of several uremic solutes for daily analysis of large numbers of samples.

Abstract
Background. Uraemic toxins in the 8 to 60 kDa molecular weight range have been attracting increasing attention in dialysis therapy. However, there are no available standardized methods to evaluate their removal. Using new filtering membranes, we evaluated SDS–PAGE of spent dialysate to assess cut-off ranges and removal capacities into dialysate, while also measuring classical markers of dialyser function. Methods. Eighteen dialysis patients were washed out for 2 weeks with FX 100 (Helixone®), followed by randomization to Xevonta Hi 23 (Amembris®) or FX dialysers for 2 weeks, then crossed over for an additional 2 weeks, and finally placed on Xenium 210 (Purema®) for 2 weeks. SDS–PAGE scanning of the removed proteins contained in the spent dialysate was performed during all dialysis sessions. Total mass of urea, creatinine, total proteins, beta 2 microglobulin (β2m), retinol-binding protein (RBP) and albumin were measured. The reduction rates of serum urea, creatinine, β2m, leptin, RBP, alpha 1-antitrypsin, albumin and total proteins were also determined. Results. SDS–PAGE scanning identified four major protein peaks (10–18, 20–22.5, 23–30 and 60–80 kDa molecular weight) and showed clear differences in the amounts of removed proteins between the dialysers, particularly in the 20–22.5, 23–30 and 60–80 kDa ranges. Total mass of removed β2m, RBP and albumin were in agreement with SDS–PAGE, while serum assays showed differing results. Conclusions. SDS–PAGE scanning provided a good characterization of protein patterns in the spent dialysate; it extended and agreed with protein determinations and allowed a better assessment of dialyser performance in removing 10 to 80 kDa molecular weight substances. It also identified differences between the three mainly filtrating polysulfone dialysers that were not detected with blood measurements.

Abstract
The quality of a liquid-repellent surface is quantified by both the apparent contact angle θ(0) that a sessile drop adopts on it and the value of the liquid pressure threshold the surface can withstand without being impaled by the liquid, hence maintaining a low-friction condition. We designed surfaces covered with nanowires obtained by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth technique that are able to repel most of the existing nonpolar liquids including those with very low surface tension as well as many polar liquids with moderate to high surface tension. These superomniphobic surfaces exhibit apparent contact angles ranging from 125 to 160° depending on the liquid. We tested the robustness of the surfaces against impalement by carrying out drop impact experiments. Our results show how this robustness depends on Young's contact angle θ(0) related to the surface tension of the liquid and that the orientational growth of nanowires is a favorable factor for robustness.

Abstract
The reversible actuation of droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces under ambient conditions is currently an important field of research due to its potential applicability in microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices. We have recently shown that Si-nanowire (NW) surfaces allow for reversible actuation provided that the surface structures show certain characteristics. In particular it appears that, for such surfaces, the presence of structures with multiple specific length scales is indeed needed to have a robust reversibility of contact angle changes. Here we report on electrowetting (EW) and impalement experiments on double-scale structured surfaces prepared by a combination of silicon micropillars prepared by an association of optical lithography and silicon etching, and nanowire growth on top of these surfaces. We show that while micropillar surfaces have a low impalement threshold and irreversible EW behaviour, a surface with double-scale texture can show both a very high resistance to impalement and a limited reversibility under EW, provided that the roughness of the micro-scale is large enough--i.e. that the pillars are tall enough. The optimal performance is obtained for a space between pillars that is comparable to the height of the nanostructure.

Abstract
We report a case of renal artery thrombosis resulting from a stent fracture in a patient with a solitary functional kidney. It was successfully revascularized by surgical repair despite renal ischemia lasting more than 48 hours. This article illustrates the danger of generalizing endovascular stenting in renal artery disease regardless of the etiology. Renal artery entrapment must be kept in mind as a possible cause of renal artery stenosis. Treatment of compressive pathologies with stenting can lead to stent failure. Surgery remains the best approach for the treatment of this type of lesion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The persistence of manufacturing waste in hemodialysers is a neglected aspect of lack of hemodialysis biocompatibility. The effect of waste was tested on mitochondria isolated from rat liver. MATERIAL AND METHODS After throwing the first two liters of the rinse solution of hemodialysers, the third liter is lyophilized. The waste is placed in the presence of mitochondria. The parameter V3 is the synthesis of ATP, the respiratory control (RC) is the ability to activate phosphorylation in the presence of ADP, ADP/O is the ratio of ADP used on oxygen consumption. The study was conducted on two hemodialyzers sterilized with gamma rays (Tricea and APS) and one hemodialyzer sterilized with flowing steam (FX60). RESULTS The respiratory parameters in the presence of waste are expressed as percentage of values obtained in the presence of control (sterile water). The respective values with Tricea, APS and the FX are for V3: 67±14, 79±10, and 81±8% (T vs A p=0.02; T vs F p=0.01; A vs F p=0.68) ; for CR : 44±6, 63±7, and 74±9% (T vs A p<0.001; T vs X p<0.001; A vs F p=0.004) ; for ADP/O : 75±11, 90±19, 91±11% (T vs A p=0.16; T vs F p=0.01; A vs F p=0.68). The dose-response curves confirm the differences concerning V3 and RC but not concerning ADP/O. CONCLUSION The hemodialyzers contain waste which has toxic effects on isolated mitochondria. This waste impairs the oxidative phosphorylation. The fact that this waste is still present in the dialyzers despite rinsing with two liters should alert users about the importance of extensive rinsing and manufacturers about the importance of effective procedures in order to eliminate manufacturing waste.

Abstract
We present an experimental study of a droplet interacting with an ultrasonic surface acoustic wave. Depending on the amplitude of the wave, the drop can either experience an internal flow with its contact line pinned, or (at higher amplitude) move along the direction of the wave also with internal flow. Both situations come with oscillations of the drop free surface. The physical origins of the internal mixing flow as well as the drop displacement and surface waves are still not well understood. In order to give insights of the underlying physics involved in these phenomena, we carried out an experimental and numerical study. The results suggest that the surface deformation of the drop can be related to a combination between acoustic streaming effect and radiation pressure inside the drop.

Abstract
Paracresol is a protein-bound toxin that is not efficiently eliminated by the hemodialysis method. Monte Carlo simulations in grand-canonical (GCMC) and canonical ensembles were performed to investigate the adsorption of paracresol and water in silicalite-1 zeolite. GCMC simulations using a configurational-biased algorithm show that four paracresol molecules are adsorbed at the channel intersections per unit cell of silicalite-1. The adsorption isotherms of water with and without the presence of paracresol at the intersections were investigated. A cooperative phenomenon in the process of coadsorption has been observed: at very low chemical potential, paracresol facilitates the penetration of water into silicalite-1. This mechanism is interpreted in terms of the properties of the zeolite and paracresol molecules. A thermodynamic cycle is used to calculate the adsorption energy of paracresol in silicalite-1. The calculated adsorption energy reasonably agrees with the experimental data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients suffering from chronic kidney diseases (CKD) exhibit cardiovascular diseases and profound endothelial dysfunction. CKD patients have reduced numbers of endothelial progenitor cells, but little is known about the factors influencing these numbers. OBJECTIVES Among these factors, we hypothesized that uremic toxins and vascular injury affect endothelial progenitor cells. PATIENTS/METHODS Thirty-eight hemodialysis patients were investigated and compared with 21 healthy controls. CD34+CD133+ immature progenitors, CD34+KDR+ endothelial progenitors cells (EPC) and myeloid EPC (mEPC) were counted in peripheral blood. Levels of uremic toxins beta(2)-microglobulin, indole-3 acetic acid, indoxylsulfate, p-cresylsulfate and homocysteine were measured. Vascular injury was assessed in hemodialysis (HD) patients by measuring aortic pulse wave velocity and plasma levels of endothelial microparticles. In vitro experiments were performed to study the effect of uremic toxins on apoptosis of progenitor cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS CD34+CD133+ immature progenitor cell number was negatively correlated with the levels of uremic toxins beta(2)-microglobulin and indole-3 acetic acid. In vitro, indole-3 acetic acid induced apoptosis of CD133+ cells. These data indicate uremic toxins have a deleterious role on progenitor cells, early in the differentiation process. Moreover, mEPC number was positively correlated with markers of vascular injury-pulse wave velocity and endothelial microparticle levels. This suggests that vascular lesions could stimulate progenitor cell mobilization, even in a context of reduced EPC induced by CKD. In conclusion, uremic toxins and vascular injury appear to affect endothelial progenitor cell biology in CKD.
