1. Aqueous extract of Baccharis trimera improves redox status and decreases the severity of alcoholic hepatotoxicity
ABSTRACT The metabolism of ethanol occurs mainly in the liver, promoting increase of reactive oxygen species and nitrogen, leading to redox imbalance. Therefore, antioxidants can be seen as an alternative to reestablish the oxidizing/reducing equilibrium. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant and hepatoprotective effect of aqueous extract of

2. Kidney dysfunction and beta S-haplotypes in patients with sickle cell disease
Objective: To investigate the association between kidney dysfunction and haplotypes in sickle cell disease. Methods: A cohort of 84 sickle cell disease patients, treated in a public health service in Fortaleza, Brazil, was studied. Hemo

3. Rosiglitazona, agonista do PPAR-y "Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor-y" reverte a nefrotoxicidade induzida pelo tenofovir-DF / The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-y agonist rosiglitazone reverses tenofovir-induced nephrotoxicity
Objective: To characterize the mechanisms of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)- induced nephrotoxicity and the protective effects of rosiglitazone (RSG), a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-y agonist. Methods: Rats were treated for 30 days with one of two TDF doses (50 or 300 mg/kg of food), to which RSG (92 mg/kg of food) was added for the last 1

4. Evaluation of the oxidative metabolism and kidney and liver histopathology in copper intoxicated lambs treated with tetrathiomolybdate and/or antioxidative vitamins / Avaliação do metabolismo oxidativo e da histopatologia renal e hepática de ovinos intoxicados por cobre e tratados com tetratiomolibdato e vitaminas antioxidantes
The efficiency of intra muscular vitamin C (VC) and/or E (VE) associated with the classical copper chelate tetrathiomolybdate (TTM) in cumulative copper poisoning treatment was evaluated. Twenty six Santa Inês male lambs weighting 25 kg were distributed in four treatment groups (TTM; TTM+VC; TTM+VE; TTM+VCE). The oxidative metabolism was analyzed through me

5. Protection against cephalosporin-induced lipid peroxidation and nephrotoxicity by (+)-cyanidanol-3 and vitamin E
The ability of the clinically used cephalosporins: cephalothin, cefotaxime and cefotiam to induce lipid peroxidation (LPO) and renal damage was compared to that of nephrotoxic cephaloridine under in vivo conditions. Glutathione was measured in rat liver or in renal cortex as non-protein sulfhydryls. LPO was measured in plasma, renal cortex and liver by the g

6. Pathogenic Role of Cyclic AMP in the Impairment of Urinary Concentrating Ability in Acute Hypercalcemia
A possible association between the impairment of urinary concentrating ability and an impairment of the vasopressin-dependent cyclic AMP system in hypercalcemia was investigated in rat kidneys both in vivo and in vitro. The increases of urinary osmolality and negative free water clearance and the increase of urinary cyclic AMP excretion by vasopressin inject

7. Bidirectional regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity by dopamine and an alpha-adrenergic agonist.
Catecholamines have pronounced effects on the renal handling of sodium and water, dopamine-promoting sodium and water excretion, and norepinephrine-promoting sodium and water retention. In the present study, using isolated permeabilized renal tubule cells and intact rats, we have shown that these effects can be attributed to opposing actions of these transmi

8. Acute metabolic acidosis enhances circulating parathyroid hormone, which contributes to the renal response against acidosis in the rat.
Acute PTH administration enhances final urine acidification in the rat. HCl was infused during 3 h in rats to determine the parathyroid and renal responses to acute metabolic acidosis. Serum immunoreactive PTH (iPTH) concentration significantly increased and nephrogenous adenosine 3H,5H-cyclic monophosphate tended to increase during HCl loading in intact and

9. The urinary concentrating defect in the Gunn strain of rat. Role of bilirubin.
The role of high serum and tissue levels of unconjegated bilirubin in the pathogenesis of the impaired urinary concentrating ability was investigated in homozygous (jj) Gunn rats with the congenital absence of hepatic glucuronyl transferase. Continuous phototherapy with blue fluorescent lights at a wave length of 460 nm or oral cholestyramine feeding or both

10. Impaired renal conservation of sodium and chloride during sustained correction of systemic acidosis in patients with type 1, classic renal tubular acidosis.
In 10 patients with classic renal tubular acidosis in whom correction of acidosis was sustained with orally administered potassium bicarbonate, renal conservation of sodium was evaluated when dietary intake of sodium was restricted to 9--13 meq/day. In five patients, renal conservation of sodium was impaired by at least one criterion of impairment. In the re

11. The ionic control of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 production in isolated chick renal tubules.
Isolated renal tubules prepared from vitamin D-deficient chicks catalyze the 1 alpha-hydroxylation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (250HD3) in vitro. The effect of calcium and phosphate on the rate of synthesis of the product, 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), was studied at two levels: the long-term effects of various dietary calcium and phosphate contents o

12. Concurrent expression of erythroid and renal aquaporin CHIP and appearance of water channel activity in perinatal rats.
Major phenotypic changes occur in red cell membranes during the perinatal period, but the underlying molecular explanations remain poorly defined. Aquaporin CHIP, the major erythroid and renal water channel, was studied in perinatal rats using affinity-purified anti-CHIP IgG for immunoblotting, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence microscopy. CHIP was not
