Conventional peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluids are known to inhibit polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) phagocytosis, oxidative burst and enzyme release. However, the relative contributions of apoptosis and/or necrosis to this dysfunction have not been examined. We investigated the effects of osmolality, glucose concentration and heat-sterilization of PD fluids on necrosis and apoptosis of PMN. Polymorphonuclear cells were isolated from 8 healthy volunteers and exposed to different PD fluids for four hours. PMN were then double-stained with Hoechst 33342 and propidium iodide to study the proportion of viable, apoptotic and necrotic cells. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was performed to confirm the results obtained with flow cytometry. The fluids studied were conventionally heat-sterilized 1.5% Dianeal (1.5% D), conventionally heat-sterilized 4.25% Dianeal (4.25% D), 1.5% D in which the osmolality was increased to that of 4.25% D by adding mannitol (1.5% D + M), a filter-sterilized version of 4.25% D (4.25% D-F) and a 1.1% amino acid PD fluid (AA) (Nutrineal PD4). All PD fluids had their pH equilibrated (pH = 7.4) by the addition of sodium bicarbonate. Compared to PMN exposed to culture medium, a significantly higher proportion of necrosis was observed in PMN exposed to 1.5% D (P = 0.04). The 4.25% D induced greater necrosis than 1.5% D (P = 0.001), and the 4.25% D also induced significantly more necrosis (P = 0.002) compared to 4.25% D-F. These data suggest that the consequences of heat-sterilization, rather than high glucose concentration are responsible for the necrosis observed. Indeed, the proportion of necrotic PMN with 4.25% D-F was not significantly different from 1.5% D. The 1.5% D + M and AA induced significantly more apoptosis compared to 1.5% D (P = 0.006 and P < 0.05, respectively), suggesting that apoptosis can be induced by the high osmolality of PD fluids. However, 1.5% D +/- M also induced significantly more apoptosis (P = 0.007) compared to 4.25% D-F. This suggests that the apoptosis effect is specific for the osmolyte present in PD fluids, and that mannitol and amino acids induce more apoptosis than glucose. In summary, the different non-physiological components of conventional PD fluids evaluated in this study had a differential effect on PMN survival. Heat sterilization of high glucose-containing PD fluids was associated predominantly with necrosis of PMN, and high osmolality with apoptosis. 相似文献

Low pH, high osmolality, increasing glucose concentration, and glucose degradation products (GDP) formed during heat sterilization of conventional peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluids have been shown to have a detrimental effect on cells involved in peritoneal host defense. The two-chambered PD fluid bag in which glucose at pH approximately 3 is separated from a bicarbonate (25 mmol/L)-lactate (15 mmol/L) buffer during heat sterilization permits PD fluids with lower GDP to be delivered to the patient at neutral pH. To establish the possible benefit of two-chambered bag PD fluids on peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and polymorphonuclear (PMN) cell function, we compared conventional 1.5% Dianeal (1.5%D) with 1.5% two-chambered bag bicarbonate-lactate (1.5%D-B), and conventional 4.25% Dianeal (4.25%D) with 4.25% two-chambered bag bicarbonate-lactate (4.25%D-B). Furthermore, to study the effect of the sterilization process on PBMC and PMN function, we compared filter-sterilized 4.25%D (4.25%D-F) with 4.25%D and 4.25%D-B. PBMC were harvested by Ficoll-Hypaque separation, and 2.5 x 10(6) cells in RPMI were incubated with an equal volume of the test fluids for 4 hours, pelleted, and resuspended in RPMI containing 10 ng endotoxin for a further 20 hours. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) production by endotoxin-stimulated PBMC was not significantly different (P = 0.10) between 1.5%D-B and 1.5%D, but was significantly higher (P = 0.01) with 4.25%D-B compared with 4.25%D. PBMC exposed to filter-sterilized fluid (4.25%D-F) showed significantly higher endotoxin-stimulated TNF-alpha production compared with 4.25%D (P = 0.02), but was not significantly different from 4.25%D-B (P = 0.40). PMN were harvested by Ficoll-Hypaque separation and 10 x 10(6) cells incubated with test fluids for 30 minutes. After incubation, phagocytosis (phagocytosis index) was determined by the uptake of 14C-labeled Staphylococcus aureus, oxidative burst by reduction of ferricytochrome C to ferrocytochrome C on stimulation with PMA, and enzyme release by measurement of endotoxin-stimulated bactericidal/permeability increasing protein (BPI). Bicarbonate-lactate two-chambered fluids of similar osmolality and glucose concentration conferred a significant improvement in phagocytosis (P = 0.02 for 1.5%D-B and P < 0.001 for 4.25%D-B). Oxidative burst and BPI release were significantly higher in 4.25%D-B compared with 4.25%D (P < 0.001). Filter-sterilized 4.25%D-F conferred a significant improvement in phagocytosis and oxidative burst compared with 4.25%D (P < 0.001) or 4.25%D-B (P < 0.001). Furthermore, conventional 4.25%D was associated with significantly lower BPI release compared with 4.25%D-F (P = 0.01). GDP's acetaldehyde and 5-HMF were analyzed in 4.25%D-B, 4.25%D, and 4.25%D-F. Acetaldehyde was below the lower limit (0.79 ppm) of the standard curve in 4.25%D-B and 4.25%D-F fluids but was detected (3.76 to 5.12 ppm) in all of the 4.25%D fluids. Relative levels of 5-HMF in the 4.25%D-B (0.032 to 0.041 Abs @ 284 nm) and 4.25%D (0.031 to 0.036 Abs @ 284 nm) were similar. The lowest levels (0.001 Abs @ 284 nm) were observed in the filter-sterilized 4.25%D-F. The beneficial effects of two-chambered bicarbonate lactate-buffered PD fluids on PBMC and PMN function are probably related to reduction of GDP from heat sterilization of glucose in a separate chamber at a lower pH. This improvement in biocompatibility could have a beneficial affect on peritoneal defenses. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Conventional peritoneal dialysis fluids (PDF) have been shown to compromise the function of both leukocytes and human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMC). Various in vitro studies have identified the low initial pH in combination with high lactate content, as well as the hyperosmolality and high glucose concentration present in currently used solutions as the primary determinants of their bioincompatibility. Bicarbonate buffered PDF (at neutral pH) display improved in vitro biocompatibility as compared to conventional, lactate buffered PDF. However, little information is currently available regarding the potential impact of PDF on the function of human peritoneal fibroblasts (HPFB), the major cell population present in peritoneal interstitium. METHODS: The current study compares the effect of bicarbonate and lactate buffered PDF in a model system of resting peritoneal mesothelial cells and fibroblasts cultured from human omentum. Interleukin-1 beta-stimulated IL-6 release from HPMC and HPFB was used as the cell functional parameter. RESULTS: While short (30 min) pre-exposure to lactate buffered PDF significantly reduced the IL-1 beta-stimulated IL-6 release from HPMC during a subsequent recovery period (24 hr), a significant decrease in HPMC IL-6 secretion with bicarbonate buffered PDF was only observed after prolonged (> or = 60 min) exposure. In contrast, no significant IL-6 inhibition was detected with HPFB pre-exposed to PDF for up to 90 minutes. A significant suppression of HPFB IL-6 secretion was only observed in coincubation experiments (24 hr) with dilutions of both types of PDF. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that (i) bicarbonate buffered PDF are less inhibitory to peritoneal cell function as compared to conventional, lactate buffered PDF; and (ii) HPFB may be more resistant than HPMC to bioincompatible PDF. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of dialysis fluid containing various glucose concentrations on the phagocytosis and killing of Staphylococcus aureus by rat peritoneal cells under conditions mimicking the in vivo situation. DESIGN: Phagocytosis and killing were evaluated by quantitation of the killing capacity of macrophages after in vivo phagocytosis of the bacteria as well as by an in vitro flow cytometric assay of the phagocytosis and killing of adhered bacteria by peritoneal cells. ANIMALS: Male Wistar rats. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: It was expected that the intraperitoneal administration of dialysis fluid would impair the capacity of peritoneal cells to eliminate bacteria. RESULTS: The first test revealed no effects of glucose concentration or dwell time on the killing of phagocytosed bacteria by macrophages, median percentages ranging between 29% and 64%. In the second series of experiments no effect of glucose concentration on the phagocytosis and killing of adhered bacteria was found either; however, longer dwell times significantly enhanced both the phagocytosis (at a dwell time of 1 hour, under 20%; at dwell times of 4 or 18 hours, above 20%, p < 0.02) and the killing (at a dwell time of 1 hour, under 53%; at dwell times of 4 and 18 hours, above 70%, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Glucose concentration has no effect on the phagocytosis and killing of Staphylococcus aureus, whereas the dwell time significantly enhances both of these functional capacities of peritoneal cells if the bacteria are adhered to surfaces. 相似文献

Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) accumulate in uraemia as a consequence of diminished clearance of low molecular weight forms which retain their reactivity and may subsequently combine with circulating and tissue macromolecules. Successful renal transplantation is the only form of renal replacement therapy which effectively clears these circulating AGEs; both haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are comparatively ineffective although high-flux haemodialysis confers some benefits. De novo AGE formation may be accelerated in uraemia due to carbonyl and oxidative stress leading to further accumulation. The consequences for the patient with chronic renal failure may be acceleration of vascular disease, renal failure progression and dialysis-related amyloidosis. Accelerated peritoneal AGE formation as a consequence of treatment with peritoneal dialysis fluids may be detrimental to peritoneal membrane function but does not appear to contribute to systemic elevation of AGEs. 相似文献

Seven patients with end-stage renal disease requiring support by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis received once-daily 400 mg oral ofloxacin for 7 days for the treatment of bacterial peritonitis. Serum and peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) were collected for assay throughout the course of the study and for 5 days thereafter. Ofloxacin, desmethyl ofloxacin and ofloxacin-N-oxide accumulated over the course of therapy and could still be detected in serum and PDF 5 days after the end of therapy. The mean elimination half-life of ofloxacin in serum was 32 +/- 7 h, desmethyl ofloxacin 45 +/- 26 h and for ofloxacin-N-oxide 44 +/- 15 h. The total mean recovery of ofloxacin and its metabolites from the PDF was 15.4%. This regimen results in serum and PDF concentrations likely to be effective for the treatment of infection for at least 10 days. 相似文献

The influence of R(-) apomorphine, S(+) apomorphine and dopamine on the oxidation kinetics of two polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) (cholesteryl linoleate (CL) and Trilinolein (TL)) was investigated. The oxidation was initiated by free radicals generated through thermal decomposition of 2.2'-Azobis(2-methyl-propionitrile) (AMPN) in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) thermostated at 50 degrees C. The hydroperoxides formed were determined by iodine titration using a diode array spectrophotometer at 290nm. Both enantiomers of apomorphine as well as dopamine exerted an inhibitory effect. Tocopherol (alpha-tocopherol) and ascorbic acid were used as controls. The former inhibited while ascorbic acid facilitated the oxidation reaction. These results are discussed in relation with the possible role of oxidative injury in parkinsonism and the usefulness of apomorphine in elevating "on-off" episodes. On this basis, the non-dopaminergic enantiomer of apomorphine (S(+)-isomer) is put foward to test the importance of its radical scavenging properties in parkinsonism which could eventually lead to a therapeutic alternative with less side effects. 相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of ceftazidime have been investigated in eight patients with chronic renal failure undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Each subject was given ceftazidime 1 g intravenously and 1 g intraperitoneally at an interval of 1 week. Ceftazidime was assayed by high-pressure liquid chromatography. After intravenous administration, the pharmacokinetic parameters of ceftazidime were: elimination plasma half-life (t1/2 beta) = 24.6 +/- 4.6 hours; apparent volume of distribution (V(area)): 0.37 +/- 0.09 1/kg, total plasma clearance (CL): 11.9 +/- 3.3 mL/minute, peritoneal clearance (CLp): 1.7 +/- 0.3 mL/minute. Over 72 hours, only 15.6 +/- 4.7% of the dose was eliminated by the peritoneal route. After intraperitoneal administration, ceftazidime appeared in the plasma rapidly, and the peak plasma concentration of 24.5 +/- 5.2 mg/L was achieved at the fourth hour; the elimination half-life (t1/2ke) was 20.8 +/- 1.7 hours. The absorption of ceftazidime from the peritoneal space was 74.1 +/- 7.4%. These data suggest that ceftazidime has bidirectional exchange characteristics through the peritoneal membrane. A single 1-g intraperitoneal dose led to serum and dialysate concentrations of ceftazidime above the minimum concentrations for susceptible pathogen germs for 24 hours. 相似文献

Various factors influencing the plasma protein binding of YH-439 to 4% human serum albumin (HSA) were evaluated using the equilibrium dialysis method at the initial YH-439 concentration of 2 micrograms mL-1. It took approximately 12 h of incubation to reach an equilibrium between 4% HSA and isotonic phosphate buffer of pH 7.4 containing 3% of dextran ('the buffer') using a Spectra/Por 2 membrane (molecular weight cut-off, 12,000-14,000) in a water bath shaker kept at 37 degrees C and at a rate of 50 oscillations min-1. YH-439 was fairly stable both in 4% HSA and in the 'buffer' for up to 24 h incubation. The binding of YH-439 to 4% HSA was constant (97.4 +/- 0.55%) at YH-439 concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 10 micrograms mL-1. However, the extent of binding was dependent on HSA concentrations: the values were 90.7, 94.7, 96.7, 97.0, 97.0, 97.1, and 97.5% at HSA concentrations of 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6%, respectively. The plasma protein binding decreased with increasing incubation temperature: the binding values were 98.2, 97.6, 97.2, and 96.8% when incubated at 10, 21, 26, and 37 degrees C, respectively. The binding of YH-439 was also influenced by the chloride concentration in the buffer: the binding values were 94.5, 97.0, and 96.8% for the chloride concentrations of 0, 0.249, and 0.546%, respectively. The binding of YH-439 was also dependent on the buffer pH: the percentages of free fraction were 6.0, 4.1, 3.8, 2.8, 2.7 and 2.8% for the buffer pHs of 5.0, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.4, and 8.0, respectively. The free fraction of YH-439 was slightly increased by the addition of heparin (up to 40 U mL-1), sodium azide (NaN3, up to 0.5%), and its metabolites. The protein binding of YH-439 was influenced neither by AAG, acetylsalicylic acid, or sulphisoxazole, nor by the addition of citrate or EDTA. The free fractions of YH-439 in rabbit (4.2%) and dog (4.7%) plasma seemed to be higher than in rats (2.9%) and humans (3.1%). 相似文献

BACKGROUND: As abnormally high serum D-lactate levels may cause neurological impairment, we determined whether patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) with lactate-containing fluids have increased serum D-lactate concentrations. METHODS: D- and L-lactate concentrations were determined in peritoneal dialysis fluids and in serum from control subjects (n = 10), haemodialysis patients (n = 10), and CAPD patients (n = 30) before and after 1 h of dialysis. RESULTS: We found the median D-lactate concentration in Dianeal CAPD fluid to be 26 mM (range 19-27), whereas it was less than 0.5 mM in DPCA2 fluid. Control, haemodialysis, and CAPD (DPCA2) patient median serum D-lactate concentrations were below 0.07 mM. However, CAPD (Dianeal) patient serum D-lactate concentrations were 4-fold higher than controls (P < 0.0001), at 0.28 mM, an hour after instillation of D-lactate-containing fluid. Three patients, whose serum D-lactate averaged 0.59 mM, were found to have D-lactate concentrations at 0.22 mM after overnight cessation of dialysis. CONCLUSION: We conclude that CAPD with D-lactate-containing fluids raises serum D-lactate to abnormal levels. 相似文献

After incubation of equimolar amounts of cisplatin (CDDP) and glutathione (GSH) in phosphate buffer pH 7.4 at 37 degrees C, we detected two CDDP-GSH adducts whose structures, characterized by LC-MS, corresponded to cis-[Pt(NH3)2Cl(SG)] and cis-([Pt(NH3)2Cl]2(mu-SG))+. The latter is a new CDDP-GSH adduct, which was postulated but never structurally characterized so far. Rats and patients were given a 15-min intravenous infusion of CDDP (10 mg/kg to rats and 25 mg/m2 to patients) preceded by a GSH intravenous administration (200 mg/kg to rats as a bolus and 1.5 g/m2 to patients as a 15-min infusion). After the administrations, CDDP-GSH adducts were absent in rat and human plasma ultrafiltrates. The discrepancy between in vitro and in vivo findings can be explained based on pharmacokinetic considerations. 相似文献

A four year old boy with polyuric renal failure resulting from recurrent urinary tract infections and vesicoureteric reflux from birth underwent renal transplantation. In the past he had had five ureteric reimplant operations and a gastrostomy, as he ate nothing by mouth. He required peritoneal dialysis 13 hours a night, six nights a week. His fluid requirements were 2100 ml per day. This included a night feed of 1.5 litres Nutrizon. Before operation he received 900 ml of Dioralyte instead of the Nutrizon feed, and peritoneal dialysis was performed as usual. The operation itself was technically difficult and there was more blood loss than anticipated, requiring intravenous fluids and blood. The operation ended about four hours later but he did not wake up. Urgent computed tomography revealed gross cerebral oedema. He died the next day. At necropsy the brain was massively oedematous and weighed 1680 g. 相似文献

Spherical reservoir-type microcapsules fabricated using a water/oil/water (W/O/W) double emulsion technique with solvent evaporation and composed of poly(ethylene adipate) (PEAD) blended with 20% poly-epsilon-caprolactone (PCL II) containing a range of bovine serum albumin (BSA) loadings were incubated in Hank's buffer, pH 7.4, newborn calf serum, 1.5% pancreatin and synthetic gastric juice containing 10% pepsin A over 30 days and their percentage weight loss (PWL) and changes in ultrastructural morphology monitored by gravimetry and stereoscan electron microscopy (SEM) respectively. The greatest PWL from microcapsules was observed after incubation in newborn calf serum (NCS) and pancreatin and decreased in the order NCS > pancreatin > synthetic gastric juice > Hank's buffer. Only microcapsules theoretically loaded with 5-20% BSA and incubated in synthetic gastric juice showed a significant increase in PWL with increasing percentage BSA loading. The structural biodegradation of PEAD microcapsules in both Hank's buffer and synthetic gastric juice was minimal whilst the morphological changes observed during incubation in NCS involved pitting of the membrane, some surface erosion and reduction in diameter, followed by microcapsule membrane disruption and loss of reservoir contents. Biodegradation in pancreatin was associated with surface flaking and loss of large fragments of the microcapsule membrane. Only in NCS and pancreatin, where one would expect to see the effects of enzyme activity in addition to simple ester hydrolysis, did biodegradation proceed to the stage where there was a loss of spherical shape and almost total disruption of the microcapsule structure within 30 days. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Chemical analysis of several brands of peritoneal dialysis fluids (PD fluids) has revealed the presence of 2-furaldehyde, 5-HMF (5-hydroxymethylfuraldehyde), acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, glyoxal, and methylglyoxal. The aim of this study was to investigate if the in vitro side effects caused by glucose degradation products, mainly formed during heat sterilization, are due to any of these recently identified aldehydes. DESIGN: Cell growth media or sterile filtered PD fluids were spiked with different concentrations of thealdehydes. MEASUREMENTS: In vitro side effects were determined as the inhibition of cell growth of cultured mouse fibroblasts or stimulated superoxide radical release from human peritoneal cells. RESULTS: Our results demonstrate that the occurrences of 2-furaldehyde, 5-HMF, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, glyoxal, or methylglyoxal in heat-sterilized PD fluids are probably not the direct cause of in vitro side effects. In order to induce the same magnitude of cell growth inhibition as the heat-sterilized PD fluids, the concentrations of 2-furaldehyde, glyoxal, and 5-HMF had to be 50 to 350 times higher than those quantified in the PD fluids. The concentrations of acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, and methylglyoxal observed in the heat-sterilized PD fluids were closer to the cytotoxic concentrations although still 3 to 7 times lower. CONCLUSION: Since none of these aldehydes caused in vitro toxicity at the tested concentrations, the toxicity found in PD fluids is likely to be due to another glucose degradation product, not yet identified. However, it is possible that these aldehydes may still have adverse effects for patients on peritoneal dialysis. 相似文献

Dextropropoxyphene hydrochloride increases significantly oxygen uptake in whole rat brain homogenates at concentrations of 10(-4), 10(-5), 10(-6) M when using sucrose 0.25 M pH 7.4 as incubation medium. If substrate and cofactors are added to the sucrose, this drug decreases oxygen uptake at 10(-3) M concentration in brain and liver rat homogenates, and it also decreases significantly the P:O quotient of mitochondria in both organs by uncoupling the oxidative phosphorylation. 相似文献

The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that changes in plasma concentrations of hormones may be responsible for the exercise-induced macrophage phagocytic stimulation. The effect of 30-min incubation of macrophages with plasma from mice previously exposed to swimming until exhaustion (with or without previous training) was studied, and the results showed a similar stimulation of the phagocytic capacity (attachment and ingestion) of these cells to that found in previous studies after exercise. Also, changes in plasma concentration of both thyroxine (T4) and 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) after exercise were measured, and their effect on phagocytic capacity after in vitro incubation with peritoneal macrophages was investigated. Results indicated that, after exercise, plasma concentrations of T3 and T4 increased. Incubation of peritoneal macrophages for 30 min with a concentration of T3 similar to that observed in the plasma immediately after exercise (1.5 ng/ml) induced no modifications in the phagocytic capacity. However, a physiological concentration of T4 after exercise (75 ng/ml) stimulated the phagocytic capacity of peritoneal macrophages. In addition, a 10,000-fold greater concentration of these thyroid hormones did not modify the macrophage function. It is concluded that physiological concentration of T4 may be a mediator of the stimulation of the phagocytic function in macrophages induced by exercise. 相似文献

The racemization of ketorolac was studied in aqueous buffered solution at 25 and 80 degrees C and analyzed in detail with respect to the catalytic species in solution. The reaction has a U shaped pH rate profile at 80 degrees C with the pH of maximum stability occurring in the region of pH 3.0-7.5. A T90 value of 8 months was observed for a 1.5% (R)-ketorolac tromethamine solution at pH 7.4 and 25 degrees C. Additionally, the data shows that alternative salt forms are necessary in order to prepare a stable single isomer formulation. Alternative buffers, in particular phosphate buffer, provide formulations exhibiting a T90 greater than 2 years. 相似文献

The uptake of the Cd-metallothionein complex (CdMT) into LLC-PK1 cells was investigated and compared with that of CdCl2. The cells were incubated at 37 degrees C for up to 45 min with 1 microM Cd, as either CdMT or CdCl2 at pH 5.5, 6.4, or 7.4. Under all the experimental conditions described below, the accumulation of Cd from CdMT was markedly lower than that from CdCl2. Cd accumulation at pH 7.4 from CdMT increased linearly with the time of incubation, whereas Cd accumulation from CdCl2 was saturable. Metabolic inhibitors, 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) and carbonylcyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy)-phenylhydrazone (FCCP), and incubation at low temperature significantly decreased Cd accumulation from both Cd compounds. Coincubation with 30 microM ZnCl2, an antagonist of CdCl2 uptake, slightly decreased Cd accumulation from CdMT, but it markedly decreased that from CdCl2. Cd accumulation from CdMT at pH 5.5 was significantly higher than at pH 6.4 or 7.4, whereas Cd accumulation from CdCl2 at pH 5.5 and 6.4 was significantly lower than at pH 7.4. Although Cd accumulation from CdCl2 at pH 7.4 was significantly decreased by coincubation with 100 microM cysteine or glutathione (GSH), this decrease was not observed at pH 5.5 or 6.4. A small amount of Cd was removed, by the chelating agent EGTA, from the cell membranes after incubation with CdMT at pH 6.4 and 7.4, whereas a considerable amount of Cd was removed by EGTA after incubation with CdMT at pH 5.5 and with CdCl2 at three pHs. It appears that the CdMT complex is taken up into LLC-PK1 cells partially via an energy-dependent process, and the increase in Cd accumulation at low pH is due to the liberation of Cd. High stability and molecular size of the CdMT complex explains why it is not taken up readily into LLC-PK1 cells. 相似文献

In this study the effects of two chitosan salts, namely chitosan hydrochloride and chitosan glutamate (0.5 and 1.5% w/v), on the transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and permeability of Caco-2 cell monolayers, using the radioactive marker [14C]-mannitol, were investigated in a slightly acidic (pH 6.2) and neutral (pH 7.4) environment. Both salts are soluble in acidic conditions up to a concentration of 1.5% w/v and solutions of this strength, at a pH of 6.2, caused a pronounced lowering in the TEER of Caco-2 cell monolayers in the order of 70+/-1% (chitosan glutamate) and 77+/-3% (chitosan hydrochloride), 20 min after incubation started. In agreement with the TEER results the transport of the radioactive marker, [14C]-mannitol, was increased 25-fold (chitosan glutamate) and 36-fold (chitosan hydrochloride), respectively, at this pH. However, at a pH of 7.4 both salts are insoluble and prove to be ineffective since no reduction in the TEER values or increase in the transport of [14C]-mannitol were found. The results show that these chitosan salts are potent absorption enhancers in acidic environments. We conclude that there is a need for chitosan derivatives with increased solubility, especially at neutral and basic pH values, for use as absorption enhancers aimed at the delivery of therapeutic compounds in the more basic environment of the large intestine and colon. 相似文献

In 18 patients with chronic renal failure treated by hemodialysis (HD) before, during and after dialysis procedure breathing patterns and blood gases were estimated. Significant changes in PdCO2 and PvCO2 during HD may confirm hypothesis that CO2 diffusion into the dialysis fluid play a role in hypoventilation and hypoxemia during HD. PaO2 decrease in patients treated by peritoneal dialysis (PD) after infusion 21 of fluid into the peritoneal cavity. Increase in minute ventilation (VE) and oxygen consumption (ViO2) at 2nd and 4rs hour of PD indicate that substrate metabolism during dialysis relates to alternations in ventilation. In all patients before dialysis treatment presence of ventilation disturbances of restrictive typ were demonstrated with decreased vital capacity (VC), reduced maximal ventilation (MBC) and lower one-second forced expiratory volume (FEV1). Residual volume (RV) was significantly higher. After HD we observed a significant increase of total lung capacity (TLC) and decrease of RV, whereas after PD a significant decrease of RV. 相似文献
