Resin from Virola oleifera Protects Against Radiocontrast-Induced Nephropathy in Mice
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is an iatrogenic medical event for which there is not yet a successful therapy. Increasing evidence in rodents has suggested that this disease is associated with renal tubular and vascular injury that is triggered directly by oxidative stress. In the present study, we evaluated whether the antioxidant resin from Virola oleifera (RV) could attenuate renal damag...
متن کاملalpha2-Adrenergic agonists protect against radiocontrast-induced nephropathy in mice.
Radiocontrast nephropathy (RCN) is a common clinical problem for which there is no effective therapy. Utilizing a murine model, we tested the hypothesis that alpha(2)-adrenergic receptor agonists (clonidine and dexmedetomidine) protect against RCN induced with iohexol (a nonionic low-osmolar radiocontrast). C57BL/6 mice were pretreated with saline, clonidine, or dexmedetomidine before induction...
متن کاملRadiocontrast induced nephropathy.
In spite of improvements in chemical structure, contrast media assisted X-ray examination is still the third leading cause of hospital-acquired acute renal failure. An increase >50% or >88 micro mol/L in S-creatinine is a clinically important acute renal failure. The peak in S-creatinine occurs within 2-5 days after exposure. The frequency of oliguria, transient or permanent haemodialysis is un...
متن کاملNitro-oleic acid protects against adriamycin-induced nephropathy in mice.
Adriamycin (ADR) administration in susceptible rodents such as the BALB/c mouse strain produces injury to the glomerulus mimicking human focal glomerular sclerosis. The goal of the present study was to use this model to investigate antiproteinuric action of nitro-oleic acid (OA-NO2), a nitric oxide-derived endogenous lipid product, which has exhibited multiple attractive signaling properties pa...
متن کاملA primer in radiocontrast-induced nephropathy.
Despite recent medical progress in supportive medical absent, DM present (n=318); (iii) RI present, DM absent (n=298); (iv) both RI and DM present (n=216) therapy, the frequency of hospital-acquired acute renal failure has increased in recent years from ~5% to [14]. The frequency of RCIN, defined as an increase of serum creatinine 0.5 mg/dl, was 8.5% for iohexol (I ) 6.4% [1,2]. Even more distr...
