Abstract
Identifying any extrahepatic excretion phenomenon in preclinical species is crucial for an accurate prediction of the pharmacokinetics in man. This understanding is particularly key for drugs with a small volume of distribution, because they require an especially low total clearance to be suitable for a once-a-day dosing regimen in man. In this study, three animal scaling techniques were applied for the prediction of the human renal clearance of 36 diverse drugs that show active secretion or net reabsorption: 1) direct correlations between renal clearance in man and each of the two main preclinical species (rat and dog); 2) simple allometry; and 3) Mahmood's renal clearance scaling method. The results show clearly that the predictions to man for the methods are improved significantly when corrections are made for species differences in plasma protein binding. Overall, the most accurate predictions were obtained by using a direct correlation with the dog renal clearance after correcting for differences in plasma protein binding and kidney blood flow (r² = 0.84), where predictions, on average, were within 2-fold of the observed renal clearance values in human.

Abstract
The objective of the present study was to validate a transonic flowmeter system with two probes (model 3SS for cardiac output (CO) and 1RB for organ flows) in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats first by measuring blood flow through pump-infused isolated renal artery and ascending aorta, and then through measurements of CO and renal, mesenteric, and hindquarter blood flow (RBF, MBF, HBF) in vivo. We measured in vivo baseline flow and changes in flow induced by dopamine and propranolol for CO, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and angiotensin II (AII) for RBF and pentobarbital sodium for MBF and HBF. Correlations between meter and pump flow were linear (r = 0.999, p < 0.001) with close agreement both in ascending aorta and renal artery flow measurements. The baseline values were 15 +/- 0.7 ml/100 g/min for CO, 4 +/- 0.1 ml/100 g/min for RBF, 7 +/- 0.3 ml/100 g/min for MBF, and 6 +/- 0.3 ml/100 g/min for HBF, respectively. The system reliably detected increase and/or decrease in CO and regional blood flows. The transonic flowmeter system is accurate, highly reproducible, and compatible with other established techniques for measuring CO and regional blood flows in the rat.

Abstract
We evaluated the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for early detection of tubular injury by monitoring changes in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of renal water in a rat model of myohemoglobinuric glycerol-induced acute renal failure (ARF). Diffusion-weighted MRI was performed concurrently with measurements of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), evaluation of renal perfusion with dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI, and renal morphological examination. ADC values in the cortex and outer medulla significantly declined within minutes after the glycerol administration (70-75% of control at 4 min and 50-60% of control at 15 min). Contrast-enhanced MRI demonstrated renal hypoperfusion at 20 min after the onset of injury. Light microscopy showed normal glomeruli and edematous tubular epithelial cells at 10 and 30 min, with more severe swelling and protein casts at 30 min. No changes in serum creatinine or BUN levels were detected. We hypothesize that decrease in renal ADC may be attributed to renal ischemia and to subsequent intracellular accumulation of diffusion-restricted water. Similar imaging evaluation in other experimental models of ARF, and in patients, will define the diagnostic value of renal ADC changes in early detection of acute tubular injury.

Abstract
The potential of using fast magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in conjunction with apnea-induced blood deoxygenation for the noninvasive monitoring of relative perfusion in the rat abdomen has been studied with two experimental models: glycerol-induced focal renal ischemia and transplanted liver tumor. Gradient-echo echo-planar imaging (GRE-EPI) (TE of 20 msec at 2T) of liver and kidney was performed before, during, and after a 60-second apnea episode and then was followed in the same rat by contrast-enhanced (a) GRE-EPI and (b) T1-weighted spin-echo imaging (TR msec/TE msec = 200/6) with polylysine-(gadolinium-DTPA [diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid]). The results indicate that a noninvasive vascular challenge due to apnea can be used for the detection of focal tissue perfusion abnormalities in rat kidney and liver tumor.

Abstract
The potential of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging enhanced with albumin-(gadolinium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid [DTPA])35, a macromolecular blood pool marker, for detection of focal changes in renal perfusion was studied in a myoglobinuric acute renal failure (ARF) model in the rat. T1-weighted spin-echo postcontrast images of injured kidneys at 3 hours after glycerol injection showed three distinct zones: a strongly enhanced outer cortex, a low-intensity inner cortex, and a strongly enhanced medulla. The distinct band of low intensity in the inner cortex indicated zonal decreased blood volume, corresponding to published microsphere data showing zonal low perfusion in the inner cortex. Contrast differences between parenchymal zones were significant for at least 30 minutes. No focal ischemic changes could be delineated on nonenhanced images. Enhanced and nonenhanced images of injured kidneys obtained at 24 hours after glycerol injection revealed no zonal differentiation. Contrast-enhanced MR imaging data in this ARF model correlated well with pathologic data and microsphere perfusion results. Contrast-enhanced characterization of the ischemic phase of renal injury with MR imaging may improve specificity for the diagnosis of ARF and may serve as a marker for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Exposure to lead in early life may result in chronic renal disease in adulthood. To test this hypothesis, we gave Sprague-Dawley rats, from 3 to 9 weeks of age, either tap water or a 1% lead acetate solution, and we studied them (in pairs) 3 and 16 weeks after exposure; that is, at 12 and 25 weeks of age. Lead-intoxicated animals failed to grow. Their GFR's were lower compared with the matched controls and fell between 12 and 25 weeks of age from 4.8 +/- 0.3 to 3.3 +/- 0.4 ml/min/g dry kidney wt (P less than 0.01). Changes in RBF and single nephron GFR were proportional to changes in total kidney GFR, indicating that superficial and deep nephrons were equally affected. The blood pressure in the lead-exposed animals studied at 25 weeks of age was 143.2 +/- 3.7 mm Hg, a value significantly higher than that of 130.4 +/- 3.3 observed in controls (P less than 0.05). These results demonstrate that limited exposure to lead during development can result in progressive renal insufficiency and hypertension.

Abstract
On the basis of microsphere distribution, inert gas washout, and standard clearance data, the effects of acute hypoxia and hypercapnia on the kidney were studied in anesthetized, mechanically ventilated rats. Moderate hypoxia (mean PO2, 48 mm Hg) did not significantly change diuresis, GFR, and tubular sodium rejection. Due to a decrease in renal vascular resistance (R) from 40.1 to 31.8 mm Hg ml-1 min, mean renal blood flow stayed constant in spite of a significant drop in mean arterial blood pressure. Hypoxic changes in R were not accompanied by significant changes in intrarenal distribution of blood flow (IDBF). In severe hypoxia (PO2 less than 45 mm Hg) with oliguria and marked arterial hypotension, R was the lowest of all groups (28.8 mm Hg ml-1 min). Hypercapnia did not significantly change the renal excretory parameters, although an increase in R (without change in IDBF), together with a decrease in MAP caused a marked drop in mean renal blood flow. From these studies we conclude: 1) in the anestheized rat, acute hypoxia caused significant changes in intrarenal hemodynamics without changes in excretory function, 2) hypoxic renal vasodilation persists even in severe hypotension with oliguria and anuria, 3) in acute hypoxia and hypercapnia, changes in renal blood flow and renal vascular resistance are not accompanied by significant changes in IDBF.

Abstract
Four standard diuretic compounds were evaluated for electrolyte output, effects on glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and effective renal plasma flow (RPF) in an anaesthetized rat preparation. Triamterene, hydrochlorothiazide, acetazoleamide and furosemide exerted their characteristic diuretic effects at doses which did not significantly change GFR or RPF. Regulation of the rate of a 3% mannitol-0.9% NaCl infusion to rats permitted the establishment of GFR and RPF values which were approximately in the middle of the reported range for this species. A significant increase in RPF without a concurrent rise in GFR was produced with dopamine. This was effectively blocked by the peripheral dopamine inhibitor, bulbocapnine.

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 pathogenesis of hyperglucagonemia and of the alterations in the pattern of circulating immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) associated with renal insufficiency was studied in rats in which a comparable degree of uremia was induced by three different methods, i.e., bilateral nephrectomy, bilateral ureteral ligation, and urine autoinfusion. Nephrectomized and ureteral-ligated rats were markedly hyperglucagonemic (575 +/- 95 pg/ml and 492 +/- 54 pg/ml, respectively), while IRG levels of urine autoinfused animals (208 +/- 35 pg/ml) were similar to those of control rats (180 +/- 26 pg/ml), indicating that uremia per se does not account for the hyperglucagonemia observed in renal failure. Similarly, plasma IRG composition in this group of animals was indistinguishable from that of controls, in which 88.2 +/- 5.9% of total IRG consisted of the 3,500-mol wt fraction. The same component was almost entirely responsible (82.6 +/- 4.1%) for the hyperglucagonemia observed in ligated rats, while it accounted for only 57.6 +/- 5.0% of the circulating IRG in nephrectomized animals. In the latter group, 36.8 +/- 6.6% of total IRG had a mol wt of approximately 9,000, consistent with a glucagon precursor. This peak was present in samples obtained as early as 2 h after renal ablation and its concentration continued to increase with time reaching maximal levels at 24 h. These results confirm that the kidney is a major site of glucagon metabolism and provide evidence that the renal handling of the various circulating IRG components may involve different mechanisms. Thus, the metabolism of the 3,500-mol wt fraction is dependent upon glomerular filtration, while the uptake of the 9,000-mol wt material can proceed in its absence, as long as renal tissue remains adequately perfused. This finding suggests that the 9,000-mol wt component may be handled by peritubular uptake.

Abstract
We studied the effect of different chronic (3-4 weeks) dietary salt intakes on intrarenal hemodynamics of normal and mercury-intoxicated rats. Cardiac output (CO), total renal blood flow (RBF), and the zonal perfusion rate in the outer cortex (OC) and inner cortex (IC) were measured by the radioactive microsphere method. The distribution of cortical blood flow was calculated as the distribution index (DI), which reflects the ratio OC/IC. Rats were placed on a high salt diet (group I), intermediate salt diet (group II), or low salt diet (group III). For each group control rats (subgroup A) and mercury-intoxicated rats (subgroup B) were studied. No effect of the different salt intakes on the DI could be detected. The DI in group IA was 2.35 +/- 0.14; in IIA, 2.40 +/- 0.16; and in IIIA, 2.38 +/- 0.09 (P greater than 0.05). After mercury injection RBF changed from 5.32 +/- 0.36 ml/g.min(-1) (IIA) to 3.31 +/- 0.20 ml/g.min(-1), IIB and from 4.32 +/- 0.11ml/g.min(-1) (IIIA) to 1.98 +/- 0.10 ml/g.min(-1) (IIIB) P less than 0.01). The DI was lowered to 1.53 +/- 0.06 (IIB) (P less than 0.05) and to 1.16 +/- 0.10 (IIIB) (P less than 0.01). In both IIB and IIIB a marked elevation of the blood urea was noted (IIB = 97 +/- 9 MG/100 ML AND IIIB = 182 +/- 25 mg/100 ml). In group IB no effect on RBF, OC, IC, or DI could be observed (for all values, P greater than 0.05) despite similar histological renal lesions. Group IB rats also had normal blood urea levels (31 +/- 6 mg/100 ml;P greater than 0.05). We conclude (1) that variations in dietary salt intake appear to have no detectable effect on the intracortical blood flow distribution; and furthermore (2) that the mercury-induced acute renal failure (ARF) is characterized hemodynamically by a total renal and preferential outer cortical ischemia and that chronic salt loading prevents the ARF while preserving normal renal perfusion.

Abstract
The early pathophysiological changes in acute urate nephropathy were investigated in a rat model using micropuncture, clearance, and morphologic methods. Plasma urate was increased from 1.2 +/- 0.6 to 20.1 +/- 3.1 mg/100 ml (P less than 0.001). Urinary urate rose from 24.3 +/- 5.1 to 142.2 +/- 21.0 mg/100 ml (P less than 0.001). Renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate fell to 17 and 14% of control values, respectively, and urine flow rate decreased from 11.3 +/- 4.8 to 4.2 +/- 2.2 mul/min (all P less than 0.005) Superficial nephron filtration rate fell less than that of the whole kidney (70 vs. 86%). Both proximal and distal tubular pressures were increased from 10.6 to 26.1 mm Hg and from 7.2 to 24.7 mm Hg, respectively (P less than 0.005). Efferent arteriolar and peritubular capillary pressures were increased twofold. Vascular resistance beyond the peritubular capillaries increased from 4.8 X 10(9) to 21.6 X 10(9) dynes s/cm5. Extensive deposits of uric acid and urate were found in the tubular system and vasa recti from the corticomedullary junction to the tip of the papilla. It is concluded from these experiments that not only tubular obstruction in the collecting ducts, but also obstruction of the distal renal vasculature, are the primary early pathogenetic events in acute urate nephropathy.

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.
