A morphometric analysis of glomerular and tubular alterations following fast-neutron irradiation of the pig and monkey kidney

Purpose: The morphologic responses of the pig and monkey kidney to fractionated fast-neutron irradiation were assessed. Methods and Materials: The right kidney of approximately 14-week-old female Large White pigs was irradiated with 6.6–12.2 Gy of fast neutrons (42 MeV d→Be) given as 12 fractions ov...

description Purpose: The morphologic responses of the pig and monkey kidney to fractionated fast-neutron irradiation were assessed. Methods and Materials: The right kidney of approximately 14-week-old female Large White pigs was irradiated with 6.6–12.2 Gy of fast neutrons (42 MeV d→Be) given as 12 fractions over 18 days; the left kidney served as the contralateral unirradiated kidney. Both kidneys were removed at necropsy 2 years postirradiation. In addition, the remaining hypertrophied kidney of four unilaterally nephrectomized adult rhesus monkeys was irradiated with a total dose of 11.0 Gy fast neutrons (45 MeV p→Be) given in an identical fractionation regimen to that used in the pig studies. These kidneys were removed when the animals exhibited renal failure, between 32–94 weeks postirradiation. Glomeruli were assessed for the presence of pathologic features, including intercapillary eosinophilic material (ICE), ectatic capillaries, thrombi, hemorrhage, and sclerosis. The relative proportion of renal cortex occupied by glomeruli, interstitium, normal, or abnormal tubules was determined using a Chalkley point grid. Results: The incidence of normal glomeruli, ectatic capillaries, thrombosis, and periglomerular fibrosis were significantly different in the irradiated pig kidneys compared with the unirradiated contralateral kidneys ( p ≤ 0.02). Linear regression analysis demonstrated a significant dose relationship in terms of normal glomeruli, ectatic capillaries, and ICE ( r ≥ 0.64; p ≤ 0.04). Irradiation was also associated with a significant ( p < 0.0001) decrease and increase in the volume of renal cortex occupied by normal and abnormal tubules, respectively. Similar morphometric changes were noted in the irradiated monkey kidneys. Conclusions: The morphologic changes seen in the pig and monkey kidney after fractionated irradiation with fast neutrons are similar to those previously noted after single-dose or fractionated-photon irradiation. These findings support the hypothesis that the development of radiation nephropathy in these various models involves common pathophysiological mechanisms.
