Angiotensin Receptor Blocker Losartan Inhibits Spontaneous Motility of Isolated Human Ureter.
Ureteral motility is essential for elimination of intraluminal stones, and it may be adversely affected by cardiovascular drugs that a patient is taking chronically. The aim of our study was to test whether ACE inhibitors and an angiotensin receptor blocker may influence spontaneous contractions of isolated human ureter.. Both phasic and tonic contractions of the isolated ureteral segments taken from 10 patients were measured as changes of the longitudinal tension or pressure recordings. Captopril, enalapril and losartan were separately added to the organ baths cumulatively.. While enalapril (2.7 × 10. Due to differences in molecular mechanism of action, angiotensin receptor blocker losartan does and ACE inhibitors captopril and enalapril do not inhibit spontaneous contractions of isolated human ureter.

Inhibition of tyrosine kinases by sunitinib associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis lesion in addition to thrombotic microangiopathy.
Sunitinib is an orally administered inhibitor of tyrosine kinases and has become the standard of care for many patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Its use has been associated with renal toxicity in some patients. We report a patient with a metastatic clear-cell renal carcinoma who showed arterial hypertension, nephrotic syndrome and azotaemia 10 months after treatment with sunitinib. The renal biopsy revealed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) in addition to thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), and the complete syndrome disappeared 6 months after sunitinib withdrawal. To our knowledge, this is the first case of FSGS associated to TMA secondary to sunitinib treatment. We discuss the possible glomerular pathomechanism.
