The effect of mTOR inhibitor rapamycin on a dietary Drosophila melanogaster model of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis
… with aging in both metabolic syndrome and nephrolithiasis. The mechanistic (mammalian) target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity is characteristic of metabolic syndrome. When nutrients are abundant, mTOR is active. Conversely, fasting inhibits mTOR. Metabolic syndrome is correlated with an …

Investigation of the effect of hydroxycitric acid on urinary calcium oxalate risk factors for kidney stone formation in artificial urine: theoretical modelling and in vitro crystallisation experiments
Nephrolithiasis, or urolithiasis, commonly known as kidney stones, is a common medical problem. Kidney stones are composed of different mineral types. Calcium Oxalate is the most common kind of stone. The principal aim of this research was to establish whether hydroxycitrate (HCA) affects and/or …

Modeling Uric Acid Kidney Stones Disease in D. melanogaster using RNAi and Dietary Modulation
<p>In humans, the major predictor for gout and forming uric acid kidney stones is elevated uric acid in the serum and urine respectively. It is known that uric acid is an end metabolite of purine degradation in humans, but in other species from <em>D. melanogaster </em>to lower apes,<em> </em>uric …
