Protective effect of l-arginine on hypercholesterolemia-enhanced renal ischemic injury

The effects of hypercholesterolemia on ischemic renal failure were evaluated in rats subjected to 60 min of left renal artery clamping and contralateral nephrectomy. One group of rats (HC) was kept on a cholesterol-supplemented diet for 3 weeks before renal injury and compared to a group fed a regul...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of hypercholesterolemia on ischemic renal failure were evaluated in rats subjected to 60 min of left renal artery clamping and contralateral nephrectomy. One group of rats (HC) was kept on a cholesterol-supplemented diet for 3 weeks before renal injury and compared to a group fed a regular diet (ND). Two days after renal ischemia, inulin clearance ( C in, ml/min per 100 g BW) was lower in HC-rats (0.033±0.011) than in ND-rats (0.227±0.037; P
