Role of translocator protein in renal ischemia reperfusion, renal preservation and acute kidney injury.
Translocator protein (TSPO), formerly known as peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PBR), has been described in several tissues and characterized as one of the main elements of steroidogenesis. However, TSPO is also involved in other pathways and cell functions, such as apoptosis regulation, protein import, membrane biogenesis, cell cycle regulation, oxygen homeostasis and mitochondrial membrane fluidity regulation. In the kidney, TSPO is normally located in the distal parts of the nephron from the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle to the medullary collecting ducts. However when the kidney is submitted to a stress such as ischemia reperfusion injury there is a defined change in TSPO expression towards more proximal areas of the nephron, and thethe chart and its interpretation. However, as they placed a strong emphasis on keeping infants\' weights up, some of them gave supplements in order to prevent falls against the chart centiles. Thus, weighing, while valued, impacted negatively on breastfeeding \[[@B16]\]. Other literature alludes to the impact of weight monitoring, but this appears to be the only previous study to have investigated it in detail.

Experience in the United Kingdom
--------------------------------

In the United Kingdom (UK) a system of clinics and the profession of health visitors -- nurses with extra training -- were developed during the early decades of the twentieth century in response to concern about the welfare of infants in industrial towns; both were later extended to universal state provision \[[@B17],[@B18]\]. Although health visitors advise on infant feeding, they do
