Abstract
|
|
|
Kinetics of p-ammohippurate (PAFO transport was studied in rats treated with CdC 12 at a subcutaneous injection dose of 2rngC¢¥.d/kgday. The Cdtreatrnent for 4^-16 days resulted in a marked reduction of the maximum rate of active PAH influx (Vmax) without any change in substrate affinity of the transport system (Km). The passive influx an j the efflux of PAH across the basolateral membrane and the rate of renal tissue oxygen consumption were not apparently attenuated in Cd-trraied animals.
These results indicate that the mechanism of impaired renal PAH excretion in Cd-treated animals is a loss of effective organic acid carriers in the basolateral membrane of proximal tubules.
