Intestinal absorption of cholesterol by the nephrotic rat.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Exogenous cholesterol, absorbed from the intestinal tract, is transported into the blood by the lymph of the thoracic duct. By means of thoracic duct cannulation and subsequent lymph collection following stomach feeding of 100 mg. of cholesterol dissolved in olive oil, it was found that the nephrotic rat has a diminished rate of cholesterol absorption. This could not be ascribed to a deficiency of lymph flow or of bile in the intestinal tract.

The role of exogenous lipids in the hyperlipemia and hypercholesteremia of nephrotic rats.
The renal disease, ascites, subcutaneous edema, and hyperlipemia induced in rats by injection of rabbit anti-rat kidney serum comprise a syndrome which closely resembles the nephrotic state as it occurs in humans (1). This provides a unique opportunity to study the mechanism(s) of the disturbed lipid metabolism of the nephrotic state. In previous studies from this laboratory it was found that t...
متن کاملIntestinal Lipid Absorption in the Nephrotic Rat1’2
There is limited data on intestinal lipid absorption in the nephrotic syndrome. This study investigated whether the efficiency of intestinal lipid absorption is altered in nephrotic lymph-fistula rats. The nephrotic syndrome was induced in nine Sprague-Dawley rats by an iv injection of puromycin aminonucleoside in saline; seven control rats received saline only. At 10 to 14 days after injection...
متن کاملInvestigation of Intestinal Absorption of Pyridinones in Rat
Recently, it has been shown that a number of hydroxypyridinones such as 1,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxypyridin-4-one (L1) are useful for the treatment of iron overload in place of desferrioxamine in thalassaemic patients. In this study, the intestinal absorption (I.A.) of L1 and one of its analogues namely 2-methy-3-hydroxypyridin-4-one (L2), which possesses a higher partition coefficient (Kpart) than L...
متن کاملSuccessful treatment of massive proteinuria and severe chyluria by inhibition of cholesterol absorption with ezetimibe in a patient with filariasis
We describe a case of filariasis presenting with severe chyluria and nephrotic-range proteinuria. There were no obvious findings of glomerulonephritis in the renal biopsy. Technetium-99m-human serum albumin (Tc-99m-HSA) lymphoscintigraphy revealed the presence of communications between lymphatic channels and the urinary tract. Ezetimibe (10 mg/day) was administered during hospitalization. Chylu...
متن کاملInhibition of intestinal absorption of cholesterol by surface-modified nanostructured aluminosilicate compounds.
The aim of this work was to assess the ability of aqueous suspensions of surface-modified nanostructured aluminosilicate (NSAS) compounds to reduce the intestinal absorption of cholesterol in a rat model. The rats were divided into 10 treatment groups which included several NSAS compounds at various doses, ezetimibe at 10 mg/kg, stigmastanol at 50 mg/kg, and normal saline. All compounds and con...
