## Background: Sorbitol plays an important role in renal osmoregulation. in the rat renal inner medulla sorbitol synthesis and sorbitol degradation are located in different cell types. whereas sorbitol synthesis can be detected in the inner medullary collecting duct cells, sorbitol degradation take
Reactive oxygen metabolites have been implicated in the pathogenesis of toxic, ischaemic and immunologically mediated renal injury. An increase in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) has been proposed as a mechanism of oxidative stress-induced cell injury. We used a fluorescence spectrom
## Background: Agmatine, a putative endogenous ligand for imidazoline receptors, induces numerous biological effects. the agonist clonidine binds to alpha-2 (alpha2) adrenoceptors and imidazoline receptors, and inhibits arginine vasopressin (avp)-stimulated urea permeability (pu) in the rat inner m
