Abstract
Determination of renal plasma flow (RPF) by para‐aminohippurate (PAH) clearance leads to gross underestimation of this respective parameter due to impaired renal extraction of PAH after renal ischemia and reperfusion injury. However, no mechanistic explanation for this phenomenon is available. Based on our own previous studies we hypothesized that this may be due to impairment of expression of the basolateral rate limiting organic anion transporters Oat1 and Oat3. Thus, we investigated this phenomenon in a rat model of renal ischemia and reperfusion by determining PAH clearance, PAH extraction, PAH net secretion, and the expression of rOat1 and rOat3. PAH extraction was seriously impaired after ischemia and reperfusion which led to a threefold underestimation of RPF when PAH extraction ratio was not considered. PAH extraction directly correlated with the expression of basolateral Oat1 and Oat3. Tubular PAH secretion directly correlated with PAH extraction. Consequently, our data offer an explanation for impaired renal PAH extraction by reduced expression of the rate limiting basolateral organic anion transporters Oat1 and Oat3. Moreover, we show that determination of PAH net secretion is suitable to correct PAH clearance for impaired extraction after ischemia and reperfusion in order to get valid results for RPF. Determination of renal plasma flow by PAH clearance leads to gross underestimation of this respective parameter due to impaired renal extraction of PAH after renal ischemia and reperfusion injury. However, no mechanistic explanation for this phenomenon was available up to now. Consequently, our data offer an explanation for impaired renal PAH extraction by reduced expression of the rate limiting basolateral organic anion transporters Oat1 and Oat3.

Abstract
We determined the effect of postischemic injury to the human renal allograft on p-aminohippurate (PAH) extraction (E(PAH)) and renal blood flow. We evaluated renal function in 44 allograft recipients on two occasions: 1-3 h after reperfusion (day 0) and again on postoperative day 7. On day 0 subsets underwent intraoperative determination of renal blood flow (n = 35) by Doppler flow meter and E(PAH) (n = 25) by renal venous assay. Blood flow was also determined in another subset of 16 recipients on postoperative day 7 by phase contrast-cine-magnetic resonance imaging, and E(PAH) was computed from the simultaneous PAH clearance. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) on day 7 was used to divide subjects into recovering (n = 23) and sustained (n = 21) acute renal failure (ARF) groups, respectively. Despite profound depression of GFR in the sustained ARF group, renal plasma flow was only slightly depressed, averaging 296 +/- 162 ml. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2) on day 0 and 202 +/- 72 ml. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2) on day 7, respectively. These values did not differ from corresponding values in the recovering ARF group: 252 +/- 133 and 280 +/- 109 ml. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2), respectively. E(PAH) was profoundly depressed on day 0, averaging 18 +/- 14 and 10 +/- 7% in recovering and sustained ARF groups, respectively, vs. 86 +/- 6% in normal controls (P < 0.001). Corresponding values on day 7 remained significantly depressed at 65 +/- 20 and 11 +/- 22%, respectively. We conclude that postischemic injury to the renal allograft results in profound impairment of E(PAH) that persists for at least 7 days, even after the onset of recovery. An ensuing reduction in urinary PAH clearance results in a gross underestimate of renal plasma flow, which is close to the normal range in the initiation, maintenance, and recovery stages of this injury.

Abstract
This report was designed to assess response of the renal nerve activity (RNA) during and after renal ischemia in chronic hypoxic rats. Hypoxia was induced by placing the female Wistar rats in an altitude chamber set at 5500 m for 4 weeks. Simultaneous recordings of left renal efferent (RENA) and afferent (RANA) nerve activity were performed in each pentobarbital-anesthetized rat throughout the experiment. Ischemic renal failure was induced by complete occlusion of the left renal artery for 45 min. During renal arterial occlusion (RAO), RENA gradually decreased while RANA enhanced initially and then this decreased gradually in both sea level (SL) controls and chronic hypoxic (high-altitude; HA) rats. During 45 min of reperfusion, RENA depressed more in comparison with RANA in both groups of animals. In addition, RANA returned to baseline level in SL rats, while it remained elevated in HA rats. In the second experiment, six groups of renal ischemic rats were challenged by rapid intravenous infusion of 10 ml of saline, and urine was collected for 90 min from the left ureter. Baseline RENA was low in rats 4 h after RAO of SL (4SL) and of HA (4HA) groups. The effects of saline loading on RENA and RANA were different in HA and SL rats. Saline loading significantly decreased RENA but increased RANA more in SL rats. Following saline loading, RENA in 4SL and 4HA rats, as well as animals 24 h after RAO of SL (24SL) and HA (24HA) were comparable to their respective SL or HA animals. In 4SL rats, RANA was significantly enhanced, and remained elevated during saline loading and the recovery period. In 4HA, 24HA and 24SL rats, RANA reduced significantly during saline loading, then its activity returned to the baseline value. The insulted kidneys showed increased renal excretion of water and sodium in 4SL and 4HA rats. Urinary excretion reduced significantly in 24SL rats but was almost normal in 24HA rats. These results indicate that a decrease in RENA may play a protective role in response to renal ischemia in both SL and HA rats. In response to renal ischemia and saline loading, different alterations of RANA in SL and HA rats may reflect a beneficial mechanism located in the hypoxia-pretreated kidney.

Abstract
In the early postoperative period after renal transplantation 388 follow-up ultrasound examinations were performed in 77 patients. Over a period of 18 months standardized duplex indices (resistive index, pulsatility index) and gray-scale parameters (parenchyma/sinus index; medulla/cortex index) were sampled. These data were correlated retrospectively with clinical and pathological diagnoses. To delineate the individual course of duplex and gray-scale indices during different transplant diseases we created a new parameter: the MID (maximal index difference) which is a result of the difference between the highest index during the phase of renal dysfunction and the lowest index during the phase of normal renal function. This MID, calculated for duplex indices and for the parenchyma/sinus index, indicated significant differences in the behavior of renal transplants during the four main diseases: interstitial rejection, vascular rejection, acute tubular necrosis and Cyclosporine A nephrotoxicity. Using the MIDs, a table of cut-off values was established, which enables to differentiate retrospectively these four transplant complications with a sensitivity of 84% and specificity of 81%. In our opinion consequent follow-up examinations with duplex and gray-scale sonography should be performed, enabling sonography to become a helpful diagnostic instrument in the monitoring of renal transplants.

Abstract
Acute renal failure is a serious complication of reconstructive aortoiliac surgery. The question was raised whether its etiology includes interaction between preoperative angiographic contrast medium and intra-operative clamping of the renal arteries. Renal arteries of 180 rats were bilaterally clamped 10 to 120 min and serum urea was determined from 3 h to 7 days later. In 35 rats 40 min clamping alone produced an increase in urea reaching a maximum 1 day later (median increase 70%). In 3 groups of 12 rats intravenous injection of the contrast medium metrizoate alone in doses 1, 2 and 3 g I/kg body-weight produced no significant increase in urea. Intravenous injection of the same doses to 3 groups of 10 rats each followed 1 h later by renal arterial occlusion for 40 min produced median urea increases one day later of 110, 130 and 170 per cent, respectively, in the 3 groups. The increase was higher than that produced by contrast medium alone (p less than 0.01) or by renal artery clamping alone (p less than 0.05) indicating a potentiation of transient renal failure by the combination of contrast medium and renal arterial clamping.

Abstract
Complete occlusion of the left renal artery for 60 min in the rat produced anuric acute renal failure after 1 day. Using fluorescence microscopy, a television system combined with double slit densitometry, and micropuncture techniques, tubular pressure and tubular flow rates were determined in different segments of superficial nephrons. Intratubular pressures in proximal convolutions of the postischemic kidney were largely heterogeneous due to abnormally increased flow resistance in proximal tubules which were filled with loose obstructive material. Proximal tubular pressure in the control kidney was independent of the site of its measurement and had a mean value of 14.1 mm Hg. In the postischemic kidney pressure decreased gradually along the proximal tubule, its value in the early and late segments being 16.3 and 9.7 mm Hg, respectively. Low pressure in late proximal convolutions excludes a significant flow impediment due to obstruction in more distal segments. The mean nephron filtration rate (SNGFR) obtained by extrapolation of tubular flow data was 62% of the control value, whereas tubular reabsorption was estimated to be 50% above normal. Reduced SNGFR and increased outflux caused a total reabsorption of tubular fluid within 60% of proximal convoluted tubule length. The partial reduction of SNGFR can be explained by increased pressure in early proximal convolutions and reduced glomerular plasma flow known for these kidneys, without postulating a change in glomerular permeability. Tubular obstruction and increased passive outflux in proximal tubules due to cellular damage appear to be crucial mechanisms responsible for the loss of renal function in this model of acute renal failure.

Abstract
Acute renal failure was induced in heparinized rats by clamping the renal artery for 45 min. Ten minutes after recirculation the intrarenal blood flow distribution was measured. For this purpose labelled microspheres were injected together with 86-Rb chloride. The microspheres were used for determination of cardiac output, total renal and cortical blood flow, and 86-Rb for calculations of medullary blood flow. Total renal blood flow was reduced from 7.6 to 3.8 ml . min-1 . g-1 and cortical blood flow was reduced from 11.7 to 7.0 ml . min-1 . g-1. In the outer stripe of the medulla there was a reduction from 2.5 to 1.4 ml . min-1 . g-1. In the inner stripe there was a more pronounced reduction from 1.8 to 0.2 ml . min-1 . g-1 and in the inner zone from 0.8 to 0.1 ml . min-1 . g-1. The marked reduction in the blood flow to the renal medulla after recirculation is suggestive for a medullary ischemia, which might be responsible for the characteristic dysfunctions in acute renal failure.

Abstract
Intrarenal blood flow, nephron function and whole kidney function were studied in the recovery phase of acute failure induced by 45 min of warm ischemia. Analyses were made 24 h, 7 days and 28 days after the ischemic insult. At 24 h the total renal blood flow was 4.0 ml . min-1 . g-1, decreasing to 1.2 within one week. After four weeks it was normalized to 3.4 ml . min-1 . g-1. The intrarenal blood flow distribution, studied with the 86-Rb extraction method, showed the same pattern of response, with no signs of a persistent heavy reduction in the deeper parts, as was found 10 min after recirculation (Karlberg et al. 1982 a). The contralateral, nonischemic kidney responded with hyperemia in all areas 24 h after the trauma, but after 7 days the values were normal. The function of the superficial nephrons was studied with the micropuncture technique. In the initial phase mainly obstructed nephrons were found, but after four weeks the nephrons were essentially normal. After 24 h the postischemic kidneys were anuric but at 7 days urine production had started and the GFR was 0.1 ml . min-1; this improved to 0.55 ml . min-1 after 4 weeks.

Abstract
Acute renal failure was induced in rats by clamping the renal artery for 45 min. After reestablishing renal blood flow, tubular heterogeneity was observed, with (1) seemingly normal tubules, (2) dilated tubules and (3) collapsed tubules. Micropuncture techniques were used to examine the hydrostatic pressures in the different nephrons and superficial vessels, and also to determine single nephron glomerular filtration rate. The dilated tubules showed minimal filtration, due to an elevated intratubular pressure probably caused by obstructions; in these nephrons filtration could be induced by lowering the intratubular pressure. In the "normal" nephrons there was some filtration, as the proximal tubular pressure was only moderately increased. No filtration took place in the collapsed type, probably as a result of glomerular ischemia and consequently decreased glomerular capillary pressure. The kidneys also exhibited isosthenuric polyuria with a reduced potassium secretion. It is suggested that a medullary ischemia will lead to interstitial and intracellular edema and eventually cell necrosis with subsequent formation of obstructions in the loops of Henle. The obstructions would explain the increase in proximal tubular pressure and the decrease in total kidney filtration to about 5% of the normal. It is proposed that the deficient urine concentration ability and the inhibited potassium secretion are caused by the ischemic damage to the renal medulla.

Abstract
Acute renal failure in the rat was induced by occluding the left renal artery for 1 hour. The kidneys were examined 1, 3, 10, and 40 days after temporary ischemia. Inulin clearance was essentially zero in oligoanuric kidneys on days 1 and 3, and regained 14% and 63% of the control value on days 10 and 40, respectively. Mean cortical blood flow remained almost constant at 75% of control up to day 10 and normalized subsequently on day 40. Renal oxygen consumption during anuria on days 1 and 3 was 53% and 46% of the control value and increased thereafter concurrently with the restoration of renal function. With a single linear correlation being assumed to exist between sodium reabsorption and oxygen consumption for all kidneys, the sodium reabsorption and oxygen consumption for all kidneys, the sodium transport estimated from oxygen consumption on day 1 was about 40% of control value. The difference between the sodium transport calculated from oxygen consumption and that from inulin clearance decreased with time in the recovery phase. The results indicate only a partial reduction of GFR due to the reduced blood flow in this model. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that tubular leakage and tubular obstruction play an important role in the loss of renal function during the manifestation of acute renal failure.

Abstract
In 38 conscious rats divided into seven groups, acute unilateral ischemic renal failure was induced by 1 hour of complete occlusion of the left renal artery while the contralateral kidney remained intact. Renal excretory function of the left kidney was monitored up to 144 hours after ischemia and revealed a typical course of oliguric renal failure with oligoanuria persisting for more than 48 hours. Urinary osmolality and sodium concentration became plasma isotonic after release of renal artery occlusion and approximated control values on day 6 after ischemia. In nine rats, the i.v. infusion of furosemide before (6 microgram/min/100 g body wt) and after (12 microgram/min/100 g body wt) renal artery occlusion protected the ischemic kidney from oligoanuria with endogenous creatinine clearance of 0.42 +/- 0.11 ml/min/g kidney wt 5 hours after ischemia. Tubular absorption of sodium and water was at least partially preserved 36 hours after ischemia when infusion of furosemide was stopped. The loop diuretic significantly (P less than 0.01) increased total urinary prostaglandin (PG) E2 excretion before and after renal artery occlusion; and 5 hours after ischemia, PGE2 excretion from the ischemic kidney significantly exceeded that from the intact kidney (P less than 0.05). Indomethacin (1 mg/100 g body wt) administered in six animals markedly suppressed control PGE2 excretion (P less than 0.05) as well as the furosemide-induced rise in urinary PG excretion before and after ischemia but did not modify the protective effect of the diuretic in this experimental model. Inhibition of PG synthesis, however, reduced urinary flow rate and sodium and potassium excretion of the contralateral intact kidney and almost completely prevented its compensatory rise in creatinine clearance. The results indicate that mechanisms other than the intrarenal prostaglandin system must be considered to mediate the protective effects of furosemide in acute ischemic renal failure.

Abstract
To define the pattern of recovery from postischemic acute renal failure (ARF), we performed clearance and micropuncture studies at intervals of 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks following 60 min of complete unilateral renal artery occlusion in the rat. At 1 week, the inulin clearance (CIn) of the postischemic kidney was less than 2% of normal. The presence of marked preglomerular vasoconstriction was indicated by the reductions in renal blood flow (RBF), and stop-flow (SFP) and estimated glomerular capillary hydrostatic pressures (GCPe). In additon, there was evidence of tubular obstruction. Proximal intratubular pressures (PITP) were elevated, and intratubular casts could be seen in vivo and on histologic sections. At 2 weeks CIn had increased more than tenfold. This change occurred in the absence of any significant elevation in RBF, SFP, or GCPe. PITP had fallen, however, to normal values, and histologic sections revealed a marked reduction in the extent of intratubular casts. Ipsilateral urinary recovery of 3H-inulin microinjected into proximal convolutions was complete. At 4 and 8 weeks, there were further but more gradual rises in CIn, which were associated with progressive increases in RBF, SFP, and GCPe. These observations indicate that recovery from postischemic ARF occurred in a biphasic pattern. The initial rise in CIn was associated with the relief of intratubular obstruction, whereas subsequent rises in CIn occurred in association with progressive renal vasodilation.

Abstract
Regional and single glomerular blood flow conditions in the transplanted rat kidney after various periods of cold ischemia were investigated with use of the microsphere method. Intravascular injection of a silicon rubber compound (Microfil) allowed identification and sampling of single glomeruli. The periods of ischemia were two hours (minor damage), 12 hr (intermediate damage), and 16 hr (severe damage). After two hours of cold ischemia, the regional and total renal blood flows were fairly normal. After 12 hr and 16 hr of cold ischemia, the total and regional blood flows were reduced five minutes after recirculation, the reduction being pronounced in the deep cortex and juxtamedullary glomeruli. In the 12-hr group, the blood flow showed complete restitution after 65 min, whereas in the 16-hr group, the blood flow in the inner cortex and juxtamedullary glomeruli remained decreased. An impairment of medullary circulation would seem to be an important component in the pathophysiology of acute renal failure in this model.

Abstract
Tubular function in the early phase (one to three hours) after transplantation of rat kidneys was analyzed with respect to glomerular filtration, vascular and tubular pressures, and excretory variables. Kidneys exposed to a short period of cold ischemia (two hours) functioned almost normally, except for a polyuria. After 12 and 16 hr of cold ischemia, nephron heterogeneity appeared with 1) "normal" tubules, 2) dilated tubules, and 3) collapsed tubules. In the "normal" tubules, the pressure was increased to 20 mm Hg, and the filtration was reduced in proportion to the mean net driving force. The dilated tubules had no filtration due to a more or less complete tubular obstruction, probably located in the thin loop of Henle and in the collecting ducts. The collapsed tubules had no filtration due to glomerular ischemia, which in turn might be the consequence of afferent arteriolar constriction. The total GFR was greatly reduced since only the "normal" tubules contributed to the total filtration. Concentrating ability and potassium secretion were also impaired. We interpreted this impairment as being due to medullary dysfunction, which would explain the isosthenuria and the impaired potassium transport.

Renal cortical blood flow of rats with postischemic, myohemoglobinuric, and mercury-induced acute renal failure was measured by the hydrogen washout technique using implanted platinum electrodes. Total renal blood flow was determined by venous cannulation in separate series of rats. The values obtained with the two methods were in excellent qualitative agreement (r=0.99, P less than 0.001), although venous cannulation gave values that were constantly lower than those calculated for whole kidney from the cortical flow rate and assumed cortical mass. Myohemoglobinuria produced by glycerol injection caused cortical blood flow to fall from a control value of 7.37+/-0.23 (SEM) ml/min X g of cortex to approximately one-half that value for four hours after injection (P less than 0.001). Flow rates 12 and 24 hr after glycerol injection were 85% (P less than 0.001) and 90% (P less than 0.05) of control, respectively. Cortical flow was reduced to 5.49+/-0.39 (SEM) ml/min X g of cortex four hours after release of one hour's total bilateral renal arterial occlusion (P less than 0.001), but rose to normal within 24 hr. Poisoning with 4.7 mg/kg of body wt of mercuric chloride produced a cortical blood flow value that was 30% higher than control 24 hr after injection (P less than 0.01), while a 12 mg/kg of body wt dose gave a normal flow value. Inulin clearance was severely depressed in all models at all study times. Thus, in contrast to human acute renal failure, marked renal cortical ischemia is not an essential feature of these different forms of murine acute renal failure.

Abstract
Cardiac output (CO) and renal blood flow (RBF) were simultaneously evaluated by the microsphere method in water-drinking and chronic saline-drinking rats at 3, 12 and 24 hours after induction of acute renal failure by glycerol injection. Threee hours after glycerol injection CO and RBF decreased to 36% and 20% of the respective controls in water-drinking rats and to 41% and 24% of the controls in saline-drinking rats. Renal vascular resistance (RVR) increased significantly in both groups at this time. Isoncotic plasma expansion (3% of body weight) restored the RBF and RVR to normal in water-drinking rats 3 hours post-glycerol injection, althought CO increased to only 70% of the control. Twelve hours after glycerol injection, CO and RBF returned to normal in saline-drinking rats, whereas they remained lower than controls in water-drinking rats. Twenty-four hours post-glycerol injection, when acute renal failure was evident as indicated by blood urea nitrogen (BUN) values of 116.9 and 63.8 mg/100 ml in water- and saline-drinking rats, respectively, CO and RBF returned to normal, except that the CO of of water-drinking rats was slightly higher than control. Thus, we conclude that decreased CO is an important determinant of the early decrease in renal perfusion in glycerol-induced acute renal failure. Furthermore, the observed earlier return of CO and RBF to normal in saline-drinking rats may be partly responsible for reproducing the severity of acute renal failure.

Abstract
The present study describes for the first time the use of the fluorescent dye sulfonefluorescein for intravital microscopy and microphotometry on the renal surface of rats. With help of this dye tubular secretion can be observed in mammalian kidney in vivo. Tubular secretion can further be quantified with microphotometrical measurements. The molecular structure of sulfonefluorescein is closely related to phenol red, which is known for its tubular secretion. Clearance experiments also show a secretion of sulfonefluorescein. The secretion can be inhibited by probenecid. Ureter ligation causes a strong increase in tubular concentration of the dye. After a temporary ischemia dye accumulation in tubular lumen is greatly reduced.

Abstract
Renal hemodynamics and renal function were evaluated in rats at 3, 24, and 48 hours and at 7 days after the induction of acute renal failure (ARF) by glycerol injection. Three hours after induction of ARF, creatinine clearance was 0.04 ml/min/100 g; renal blood flow (RBF), 1.99 ml/min/100 g; and filtration fraction, 3.7%. All were abnormally low. Although the administration of isotonic saline (total dose, 3% of body weight) to rats 3 hours after glycerol injection significantly improved creatinine clearance (0.17 ml/min/100 g), RBF (2.54 ml/min/100 g), and filtration fraction (12.9%), these values still were significantly lower than those of controls (creatinine clearance = 0.50 ml. ml/min/100 g, RBF = 4.92 ml/min/100 g, filtration fraction = 20.0%, all P values less than 0.001). Serum creatinine concentrations were significantly elevated at 24 hours (3.72% gm/100 ml), 48 hours (4.69 mg/100 ml), and 7 days (0.66 mg/100 ml) after glycerol injection compared to control (0.46 mg/100 ml, all P less than 0.01). RBF during these phases was not different from normal (4.41 ml/min/100 g). RBF 3 hours after bilateral ureteral obstruction was measured to determine the effects of tubular obstruction on renal hemodynamics. The RBF of rats with ureteral obstruction (4.12 ml/min/100 g) was not significantly different from controls (4.41 ml/min/100 g), suggesting that tubular obstruction in this model of ARF is probably not the cause of decreased RBF. The depressed glomerular filtration, as reflected by the decreased creatinine clearance that occurs during glycerol-induced ARF, is probably related to altered intrarenal vascular resistance or to changes in glomerular capillary permeability, or both.
