Journal Article
Sparrow, A. J., Sweetman, D., & Welham, S. J. (2017). LIM kinase function and renal growth: potential role for LIM kinases in fetal programming of kidney development. Life Sciences, 186, 17-24. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lfs.2017.07.034

Aims

Maternal dietary restriction during pregnancy impairs nephron development and results in offspring with fewer nephrons. Cell turnover in the early developing kidney is altered by exposure to maternal dietary restriction and may be regulated b...

Acetylsalicylic acid interferes with embryonic kidney growth and development by a prostaglandin-independent mechanism (2017)
Journal Article
Welham, S. J., Sparrow, A. J., Gardner, D. S., & Elmes, M. J. (2017). Acetylsalicylic acid interferes with embryonic kidney growth and development by a prostaglandin-independent mechanism. World Journal of Nephrology, 6(1), https://doi.org/10.5527/WJN.v6.i1.21

AIM: To evaluate the effects of the non-selective, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), on ex vivo embryonic kidney growth and development.
METHODS: Pairs of fetal mouse kidneys at embryonic day 12.5 were cultured... Read More about Acetylsalicylic acid interferes with embryonic kidney growth and development by a prostaglandin-independent mechanism.
