Effects of microcystin-LR in isolated perfused rat kidney.
Microcystin is a hepatotoxic peptide which inhibits protein phosphatase types 1 and 2A. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the physiopathologic effects of microcystin-LR in isolated perfused rat kidney. Adult Wistar rats (N = 5) of both sexes (240-280 g) were utilized. Microcystin-LR (1 microg/ml) was perfused over a period of 120 min, during which samples of urine and perfusate...
متن کاملThe Isolated Perfused Rat Kidney
1. In the isolated rat kidney, perfused at constant pressure with a medium free from renin substrate, addition of angiotensin I to the perfusate decreases renal 'plasma' flow. 2. A peptide inhibitor, SQ 20881, of converting enzyme reduces the vasoconstrictor effect of angiotensin I up to a maximum of 87%, the degree of inhibition being dose-dependent. 3. The molar ratio of equi-effective doses ...
متن کاملGluconeogenesis in the isolated perfused rat kidney.
The perfused rat kidney was used for a study of gluconeogenesis. The kidney was completely isolated and perfused with Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer containing 5% albumin. Perfusion flow rate and pressure remained stable for 2 to 3 hours, although the glomerular filtration rate diminished with time. The fractional reabsorption of both water and sodium was 0.92 during the 1st hour of perfusi...
متن کاملthe effects of nitric oxide on gentamicin toxicity in isolated perfused rat kidney
introduction: there have been many studies in recent years on the role of nitric oxide (no) in acute renal failure. in this study, the effects of inhibition or interoduction of no synthase on renal toxicity of gentamicin were investegated. materials & methods: isolated kidneys of male rats were perfused with tyrode buffer (t) as the control group, t+l-argrinine as group 2, t+l-name as group 3, ...
متن کاملCo-Exposure Effects of LPS with Various Aflatoxin B1 Doses in Isolated Perfused Rat Liver Model
Background: Activation of inflammatory cells can cause more chemicals induced-hepatotoxicity. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a fungal toxin that induces acute hepatotoxicity in humans and animals. This study was conducted to examine the effect of co-exposure LPS and various aflatoxin B1 doses on the damage hepatic parameters in isolated perfused rat liver. Methods: Thirty-two male wistar rats (250-3...
