A novel simultaneous determination method for free and total proline (Pro) and hydroxyproline (Hyp) in human urine was developed, based on capillary electrophoresis (CE) with electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection, using tris-(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium(II). Experimental conditions, such as the
Pipemidic acid is extensively used in the treatment of Gram-negative urinary tract infections, and the contents of proline in human urine vary in association with chronic uremia. The simultaneous determination of pipemidic acid and proline in human urine is of significance for quality control of the
The content of free proline (Pro) in body fluids is a biological parameter for patients with renal insufficiency and chronic uraemia. Fleroxacin (FLX) must be used cautiously because of adverse reactions. Its dosage must be adjusted according to the degree of renal insufficiency. In a clinical
Rats were made severely uremic with partial nephrectomy (24-hour creatinine clearance 10% of normal). Jejunal dipeptidase activities (substrates: glycyl-L-leucine, L-alanyl-L-proline, and L-methionyl-L-methionine), disaccharidase activities (maltase, sucrase, trehalase, and lactase) and morphology
The formation of granulation tissue and collagen was studied in rats made diabetic with streptozotocin. Granulation tissue was harvested from the inside of steelmesh cylinders implanted in the back of diabetic and control animals. Four weeks after implantation there was a reduction in the quantity
BACKGROUND
Uraemic toxicity results in the dysfunction of many organ systems, provoking an increase in morbidity and mortality. To date, only approximately 90 uraemic retention solutes have been described. To examine unknown uraemic substances thoroughly, the identification of as many compounds as
Phosphate retention in chronic renal failure may result in the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism and renal osteodystrophy. Thus, the addition of a specific phosphaturic agent may be beneficial in the treatment of chronic renal failure. Phosphonoformic acid (PFA), a specific and
Rats with chronic uremia following five-sixths nephrectomy showed a significant fall in the sucrase and maltase activities in the small intestinal mucosa, the lactase and cellobiase activities in contrast remained uninfluenced. The activity of the L-leucyl-L-proline and L-methionyl-L-proline
Small intestinal dipeptidases (substrate: glycyl-L-leucine, L-methionyl-L-methionine, and L-alanyl-L-proline) were determined in uraemic and sham-operated rats given normal protein diet (24%), low protein diet (6%), and total parenteral nutrition for 10-14 days. Disaccharidases (substrate: maltose,
The effect of chronic renal disease on bone matrix and mineral maturation was evaluated in rats with experimental renal insufficiency of 2-11 wk duration utilizing bromoform-toluene gradient fractionation of bone powder, pulse labeling experiments with (45)Ca and proline-(3)H differential
OBJECTIVE
Normal bone tissue is characterised by a balancing of osteoblast and osteoclast activity. The activity and differentiation of these cells are regulated by vitamins, hormones and cytokines. The action of these factors on bone tissue cells depends on the composition and mineralisation of
BACKGROUND
Interstitial fibrosis is of major importance for the deterioration of renal function, leading to uremia. Interaction of filtered proteins with proximal tubular cells is important for the onset and development of tubulointerstitial damage.
METHODS
We investigated the effects of protein
Elimination of parenterally administered amino acids was investigated in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) (10 on conservative treatment = CT, 13 on regular hemodialysis therapy = HD). In a bolus injection protocol 0.1 g amino acids as a 10% solution containing essential and nonessential
The objective of the study was to quantify the loss and arterial blood concentration of the three main classes of amino acids (AAs)-nonessential amino acids (NEAAs), essential amino acids (EAAs), and branched-chain amino acids-as resulting from high-efficiency hemodialysis (HED) and
