N-acetylcysteine protects against renal injury following bilateral ureteral obstruction
Background. Obstructive nephropathy decreases renal blood flow (RBF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR), causing tubular abnormalities, such as urinary concentrating defect, as well as increasing oxidative stress. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on renal function, as well as on the protein expression of aquapori...

Contribution of dietary arginine to nitrogen utilisation and excretion in juvenile sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) fed d...
The role of dietary arginine in affecting nitrogen utilisation and excretion was studied in juvenile European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) fed for 72 days with diets differing in protein sources (plant protein-based (PM) and fish-meal-based (FM)). Fish growth performance and nitrogen utilisation revealed that dietary Arg surplus was beneficial o...

Biochemical validation of a rat model for polycystic kidney disease: comparison of guanidino compound profile with the h...
...
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) accounts for 7-10% of all dialyzed renal insufficient patients. Accumulation of specific guanidino compounds (GCs) has been related to neurological, cardiovascular, hematological, and immunological complications of renal failure. In this study, we investigate whether the PKD/Mhm rat model can be used as a biochemical...
Beneficial effect of amino acid supplementation, especially cysteine, on body nitrogen economy in septic rats
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Muscle wasting and increased synthesis of proteins and compounds involved in host defense characterize severe injury. The aims of the studies reported were to determine which amino acids exhibited an increased tissue content linked to anabolic processes in infected rats by comparison with healthy pair-fed controls, and to explo...

Published in Annals of burns and fire disasters
Smoke inhalation injury remains a major co-morbid complication in burn patients. The mortality rate of patients with burns and smoke inhalation injury is reported to be much higher than that of patients with either injury alone. Patients with this combined injury need a more intensive and aggressive nutrition supply to help them survive. The presen...
