Megalin deficiency offers protection from renal aminoglycoside accumulation.
Aminoglycosides are antibiotics commonly used to treat life-threatening Gram-negative bacterial infections. However, their use is hampered by their severe nephrotoxicity due to accumulation in renal proximal tubules. Several pathways have been implicated in the renal uptake of aminoglycosides including megalin, an endocytic receptor in proximal tubular cells. Here, we have used mouse models wit...
متن کاملRenal excretion and accumulation kinetics of 2-methylbenzoylglycine in the isolated perfused rat kidney.
The effect of protein binding on kidney function has been studied by investigating the renal accumulation and secretion of the hippurate analogue 2-methylbenzoylglycine in the isolated perfused rat kidney in the absence and presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA). Experiments were performed with either 2.5% pluronic or a combination of 2.2% pluronic and 2% BSA as oncotic agents; a wide concentra...
متن کاملRenal Parenchyma Thickness on CT
Purpose: To define the relationship between renal parenchyma thickness (RPT) on computed tomography and renal function on nuclear renography in chronically obstructed renal units (ORUs) and to define a minimal thickness ratio associated with adequate function. Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight consecutive patients undergoing both nuclear renography and CT during a six-month period between 200...
متن کاملStatins inhibit aminoglycoside accumulation and cytotoxicity to renal proximal tubule cells.
Nephrotoxicity due to renal proximal tubule accumulation of aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics, such as gentamicin, represents a major clinical problem. Receptor-mediated endocytosis via the multi-ligand receptor megalin is thought to be a key mechanism in the cellular uptake of AGs and nephrotoxicity. This process can be modulated by the intracellular concentration of isoprenoid pyrophosphates de...
متن کاملHypertension drives parenchymal β-amyloid accumulation in the brain parenchyma
There is substantial controversy regarding the causative role of amyloid β (Aβ) deposition in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The cerebrovasculature plays an important role in the elimination of Aβ from the brain and hypertension is a well-known risk factor for AD. In spontaneously hypertensive stroke-prone rats (SHRSP), an animal model of chronic arterial hypertension, cerebral small vessel disease ...
