Ochratoxin A (OTA), a nephrotoxic and carcinogenic mycotoxin, has been implicated as an etiologic agent in the Balkan endemic nephropathy (BEN), a chronic disease affecting populations in the Balkans. Compared with unaffected individuals, patients suffering from BEN and/or urinary tract tumors were
Some aromatic polyamines form very stable free radicals and readily undergo autoxidation with concomitant formation of 'active oxygen' species. These substances cause necrosis of striated muscle in rats, and it has been suggested that this is due to free radical formation and disruption of energy pr
The kidney has been identified as the specific target organ for in vivo exposure to an agricultural fungicide, K(3,5-dichlorophenyl)succinimide (NDPS). The goal of this study was to determine if urinary protein and enzyme excretion were sensitive, non-invasive markers for NDPS-induced renal damage.
Adverse effects, involving a combination of hypotension and widespread haemorrhages, as well as evidence of vascullar and other tissue dissociation, associated with various systemic malfunctions (cyanosis, cardiac arrhythmias, neuromuscular disorder and death) were observed in the rat, from parenter
