Juxtaglomerular Cell Changes in Dogs with Antlrenin Tlters
نویسنده
چکیده
• Increasing evidence has accumulated to support the juxtaglomerular cell rather than the proximal tubular cell as being the site of renin formation in the kidney. The determination of the site of renin is important to the elucidation of the mechanism of stimulation of the renin-angiotensin pressor system. Goormaghtigh^ first demonstrated changes in the juxtaglomerular cell which indicated a secretory function and this led him to hypothesize this cell as the source of renin. More recent microdissection and fluorescent antibody studies are in accord with Goorniaghtigh's findings.

متن کاملEvaluation of haematological and biochemical changes after short term tramadol usage in healthy dogs
Tramadol is a synthetic, centrally acting opioid analgesic that has the best analgesic efficacy without excessive sedation and significant side effects in the postoperative pain relief in dogs. OBJECTIVES: In this study, hematological and biochemical changes due to short usage of tramadol were assessed in clinically healthy dogs. METHODS: For this purpose, eighteen male mongrel dogs aged 14 to ...
متن کاملPreclinical toxicology studies with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor quinapril hydrochloride (Accupril).
Acute, subacute, and chronic toxicity studies, carcinogenicity bioassays, and reproductive and genetic toxicology studies were performed with quinapril, an ACE inhibitor used in the treatment of hypertension. Acute toxicity is minimal in rodents, and repeated dosing elicits gastric irritation, juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) hypertrophy and hyperplasia and tubular degenerative changes in the ki...
متن کاملExpression and function of the calcium-sensing receptor in juxtaglomerular cells.
Calcium-sensing receptors sense and translate micromolar changes of extracellular calcium into changes in intracellular calcium. Renin, a component of the renin-angiotensin system, is synthesized by, stored in, and released from the juxtaglomerular cells through a cAMP-dependent pathway. Increased intracellular calcium inhibits the adenylyl cyclase isoform type V, cAMP formation, and renin rele...
متن کاملPossible allergic effects and haematological changes induced by oral intake of sumac (Rhus coriaria L.) compared to levamisole in dogs
Background and Aim: Since prior to any research on the drugs, it should be aware of its allergic dose, and considering the importance of hematological system, which reveals the changes in the body, in this study, we decided to investigate the hematologic effects of sumac plant and compare it with a chemical agent (levamisole). Therefore, in future studies, it will be used with ...
