The effects of amino acid-fortified low casein and fish oil (FO) diets on hyperlipidemia and proteinuria were studied in rats with nephrotoxic serum nephritis. After an antiserum injection, rats were maintained for 14 d on four different experimental diets: a 20% casein diet containing corn oil (CO)
In this study, we examined the immune response and proteinuria caused by dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids in normal NZW/N and autoimmune NZB/NZW mice. Mice were maintained more than one year on five dietary groups: normal (5% corn oil), calorie-restricted, high fat (20% corn oil), high fat (20%
Alpha-tocopherol and fish oil have been reported to modulate the progression of IgA nephropathy in animals and humans. Because fish oil has been reported to exacerbate renal disease in subtotal nephrectomized rats, we investigated the effects of fish oil, with and without alpha-tocopherol, on the
Male rats are more sensitive to the nephrocarcinogenic effect of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) than are female rats. The purpose of this study was to shed light on this phenomenon by investigating mechanisms of subchronic nephrotoxicity of HCB. Groups of rats were administered HCB in corn oil (po) at 100
This study was designed to investigate the mechanisms by which marine lipids rich in long chain omega-3 fatty acids inhibit autoimmune disease and prolong the survival rate in female (NZB/NZW) F1 (B/W) mice, an animal model for human SLE. Nutritionally adequate semipurified diets containing at 10%
The type of dietary fat dramatically affects the onset of autoimmune disease in lupus-prone female New Zealand Black/New Zealand White F1 (B/W) mice. Disease development was strikingly slowed in mice fed a diet containing quantities of omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil, FO). By 10 months of age, 94% of
Flaxseed derivatives, including both oil and flax lignan, modify progression of renal injury in animal models, including Han:SPRD-cy polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Gender is a significant factor in the rates of progression of many forms of human renal disease, but the role of gender in the
The synergistic effects of combining fish oil (FO) diet, which reduces thromboxane A production, with the free radical scavenger, dimethylthiourea (DMTU), were evaluated in acute adriamycin nephrosis, because proteinuria in adriamycin nephrosis is mediated by increased renal thromboxane A and free
Dietary flax oil (FO) retards disease progression in growing or adult animal models of kidney disease. To determine whether dietary flax oil during the perinatal period would alter renal disease progression in offspring, Han-SPRD-cy rats with inherited cystic kidney disease were given diets with
Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is a leading cause of chronic kidney disease, frequently associated with hypertension and renal inflammation. ω-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in fish oil (FO) improve kidney function in animal models, but have
In an earlier study, we showed that feeding CLA immediately after weaning prolonged survival of NZB/W F1 mice after onset of proteinuria. In the present study, the feeding of CLA was delayed until mice had developed proteinuria. Thirty NZB/W F1 mice were fed a regular rodent chow after weaning.
Interest in the modulation of renal diseases by polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) led this group to examine the effects of borage oil (BO) and corn oil (CO) in the rat 5/6-renal-ablation model. BO is a rich source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA; 18:3n-6), which is elongated to dihomogamma-linolenic
1,1-Dichloroethane (DCE) is a solvent that is often found as a contaminant of drinking water and a pollutant at hazardous waste sites. Information on its short- and long-term toxicity is so limited that the U.S. EPA and ATSDR have not established oral reference doses or minimal risk levels for the
Nephrotoxicity of the agricultural fungicide N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)succinimide (NDPS) in rats is believed to involve metabolism on the succinimide ring. To further investigate this hypothesis, we synthesized and tested the following NDPS analogues, which contain other cyclic imide rings and may
Long-term administration of carbon tetrachloride to rats has produced proteinuria and histopathologic glomerular alterations. The present study was done to determine the effect of prior reduction of renal mass on the long-term nephrotoxicity of carbon tetrachloride. Female Sprague-Dawley rats with
