Pentoxifylline protects against endotoxin-induced acute renal failure in mice.
Acute renal failure (ARF) in septic patients drastically increases the mortality to 50-80%. Sepsis induces several proinflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), a major pathogenetic factor in septic ARF. Pentoxifylline has several functions including downregulation of TNF-alpha and endothelia-dependent vascular relaxation. We hypothesized that pentoxifylline may a...
متن کاملPentoxifylline Protects the Rat Liver Against Fibrosis and Apoptosis Induced by Acute Administration of 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or Ecstasy)
Objective(s): 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) is one of the most popular drugs of abuse in the world with hallucinogenic properties that has been shown to induce apoptosis in liver cells. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) on liver damage induced by acute administration of MDMA in Wistar rat. Materials and Methods: Animals were administered wit...
متن کاملCystone, a well-known herbal formulation improves renal function in rats with acute renal failure (ARF) induced by Glycerol intoxication
The present study was aimed to evaluate the beneficial effect of Cystone syrup in an experimental model of glycerol-induced acute renal failure (ARF) in rats. Biochemical parameters, kidney weight and histopathological evaluation were performed to conclude the beneficial effect of Cystone syrup. Administration of single dose of 50% v/v glycerol (8ml/kg.i.m) caused severe renal dysfunction assoc...
متن کاملCardiac output and renal blood flow in glycerol-induced acute renal failure in the rat.
Cardiac output (CO) and renal blood flow (RBF) were simultaneously evaluated by the microsphere method in water-drinking and chronic saline-drinking rats at 3, 12 and 24 hours after induction of acute renal failure by glycerol injection. Threee hours after glycerol injection CO and RBF decreased to 36% and 20% of the respective controls in water-drinking rats and to 41% and 24% of the controls ...
متن کاملRenal cortical blood flow in glycerol-induced acute renal failure in the rat.
Renal hemodynamics and renal function were evaluated in rats at 3, 24, and 48 hours and at 7 days after the induction of acute renal failure (ARF) by glycerol injection. Three hours after induction of ARF, creatinine clearance was 0.04 ml/min/100 g; renal blood flow (RBF), 1.99 ml/min/100 g; and filtration fraction, 3.7%. All were abnormally low. Although the administration of isotonic saline (...
