چکیده

The conjugates with sulfate and glucoside of xanthurenic acid, a tryptophan metabolite, were reported to show natriuresis. Sulfotransferase for xanthurenic acid works in the renal proximal tubule to produce the sulfate of xanthurenic acid as well as the liver, and we recently found that xanthurenic acid is a substrate of renal organic anion transporter OAT1. The purpose of this study was to examine relationship between the transport by OAT1 and diuresis related with xanthurenic acid. Drug transport experiment using Xenopus laevis oocytes represented that probenecid inhibited xanthurenic acid uptake by rat OAT1 (rOAT1). Although no diuresis was recognized by the intravenous injection of xanthurenic acid as a bolus in rats, the addition of its infusion exhibited natriuresis. Simultaneous administration of probenecid significantly decreased the urine volume and excreted amounts of sodium into urine. These findings showed the diuresis by the xanthurenic acid administration, and it was probenecid-sensitive. The rOAT1-mediated transport of xanthurenic acid might, at least in part, contribute to its diuretic effect.

Probenecid protects against In vivo acetaminophen-induced nephrotoxicity in male Wistar rats.

Renal effects of acetaminophen (APAP) were studied in rats pretreated with probenecid to analyze whether acute APAP-induced nephrotoxicity could be related to a probenecid-sensitive transport system for APAP or its S-derived conjugates. The administration of probenecid (200 mg/kg b.wt. i.p.) 30 min before APAP administration (1000 mg/kg b.wt. i.p.) improved urine flow rate and protected against...

Localization and Pyrazinamide Inhibition of Distal Transtubular Movement of Uric Acid-2-c14 with a Modified Stop-flow Technique.

Renal tubular secretion of uric acid has been demonstrated in several mammalian species including the rabbit (1), mongrel and Dalmatian dog (24), and man (7). Although secretion was easily delineated in the Dalmatian coach hound (4-6), special experimental conditions were necessary for its substantiation in other species. Uric acid clearance in excess of simultaneous creatinine clearance, indic...

The effect of diazoxide, potassium chloride, and ammonium chloride on serum and urinary uric acid.

I would like to tell you about two studies in which we have recently been involved, at the University of Michigan. The first concerns the effects of diazoxide on uric acid excretion. Diazoxide is chemically similar to chlorothiazide (Fig. l O l ) , differing by the absence of a free sulfamyl group. However, its pharmacologic effects are quite different. Studies following the oral administration...

Renal effects of a novel endogenous natriuretic agent xanthurenic acid 8-o-β-d-glucoside in rats

Xanthurenic acid 8-o-β-d-glucoside is an endogenous derivative of tryptophan metabolism, isolated from urine of patients with chronic renal disease. This compound was suggested previously to act as a natriuretic hormone based on its ability to block short circuit currents in a frog skin assay and to induce a sustained natriuresis when injected into rats (C. D. Cain et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci...

Physicochemical, Stress Degradation Evaluation and Pharmacokinetic Study of AZGH101; a New Synthesized COX2 Inhibitor after I.V. and Oral Administration in Male and Female Rats

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) act mainly via inhibition of prostaglandins synthesis by inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) isoenzymes (COX1 and COX 2). Selective COX-2 inhibitors which are also known as coxibs provide the main therapeutic effects of NSAIDs. Zarghi et al. reported 6-benzoyl-2-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)quinoline-4-carboxylic acid (AZGH 101) as a novel derivative of...
