Is urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase a marker of urological abnormality in children?
Abstract Background: Hydronephrosis is the most common congenital condition that is detected by prenatal ultrasonography. Moreover, the widespread use of prenatal ultrasonography results in an increased recognition of fetal hydronephrosis. Prenatal hydronephrosis is diagnosed at an incidence of 1:100 to 1:500 by ultrasonographic studies. The presence of hydronephrosis is not synonymou...
متن کاملPurification, biochemical properties and active sites of N-acetyl-beta-D-hexosaminidases from human seminal plasma.
Two isoenzymes of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30) (Hex A and Hex B) from human seminal plasma were purified to homogeneity with specific activities of 26 and 60 units/mg of protein respectively. N-Acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase activity was inseparable from N-acetyl-beta-D-galactosaminidase activity in both Hex A and Hex B by various conventional chromatographic procedures. Althoug...
متن کاملIncrease of lead-induced release of N-acetyl-p-D-glucosaminidase by NO synthase in perfused kidney of rat
Urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosalninidase (NAG) has been proved to be a useful marker of early renal injury as a result of factors such as lead toxicity. In this study the effect of lead acetate on the kidney and its correlation with the nitric oxide (NO) system was investigated by determining the NAG release in perfused kidney of rat. Lead acetate caused a time- and dose-dependent increase in en...
متن کاملUrinary N-acetyl-beta -D-glucosaminidase and its isoenzymes A & B in workers exposed to cadmium at cadmium plating
OBJECTIVE The present study was carried out to determine the effect of cadmium exposure on Urinary N-acetyl-beta -D-glucosaminidase and its isoenzymes A and B in workers exposed at cadmium plating. METHODS 50 subjects using cadmium during cadmium plating formed the study group. An equal number of age-sex matched subjects working in administrative section formed the control group. Urinary cadm...
متن کاملAssessment of urinary retinol-binding protein as an index of proximal tubular injury.
The urinary excretion of retinol-binding protein (RBP), beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2-m), and beta-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminidase was monitored in patients with renal tubular damage secondary to multiple injuries, rhabdomyolysis, antibiotic treatment, or poisoning by various chemicals such as solvents, heavy metals, or pesticides. In almost all cases, RBP proved to be a more sensitive index of renal...
