Rejection is one of the life-threatening complications after organ transplantation. An eight-month-old, intact male, mixed breed dog was presented with acute rejection after renal allograft. The heterotopic renal transplantation with bilateral nephrectomy was performed in the dog. The triple drug protocol for immunosuppression was applied for prevention of the acute rejection. Postoperative care was done according to the transplantation protocol of VMTH, Kangwon National University. The dog was euthanized when the serum creatinine concentration exceeded 5 mg/dL followed by tile signs of illness. The transplanted kidney was enlarged. The renal cortex lesions were characterized by necrosis of the renal tubules and the glomeruli. Interstitial lesions were characterized by hemorrhage and severe infiltration of lymphoid cells. Intrarenal arteries showed necrosis of the walls and infiltration of perivascular lymphoid cells. In immunohistochemical (IHC) findings, infiltration of the CD4 and the CD8 positive T lymphocytes was examined. In this case, acute rejection was shown by humoral and cellular immunity on the basis of histopathologic and IHC evaluation.

일 년 령, 중성화 하지 않은 체중 20 kg의 진도견이 7일간의 구토와 식욕부진, 기면을 주호소로 내원하였다. 본 환자는 임상증상과 뇨검사, 혈청화학검사, 영상검사, 복부 초음파 검사를 통해 만성 신부전으로 진단되었다. 10일간의 치료를 실시하였으나, 임상증상의 개선이 없었다. 환자는 안락사 되었으며, 사후 부검이 실시 되었다. 신장 조직검사 결과 소아 신증으로 진단되었으며, 이는 진도견에서 최초 보고되는 증례이다.

This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of renal function of NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG), inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, in dog and ra bbit. L-NOARG, when given intravenously in dogs, exhibited the decrease in urine flow (vol), renal plasma flow (RPF), osmolar clearance ($C_{osm}$) and amounts of sodium and potassium excreted in urine($E_{Na},\;E_K$). These renal functions of L-NOARG showed the same aspect in rabbit, too. L-NOARG, when administered into a renal artery, showed the same pattern as was obtained when given intravenously in both experimental and control kidney in dog. L-NOARG administered into the carotid artery showed the decrease in Vol, RPF, $E_{Na}$, in a low doses that did not show any effect when given intravenously. Above results suggest that L-NOARG produces antidiuretic action in dog and rabbit, and these antidiuretic actions may be mediated by central action.

This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of renal denervation on diuretic action of UK 14, 304, $\alpha$$_2$-Adrenergic Agonist, administered into the vein and the carotid artery in dog. The diuretic action of UK 14, 304 administered into the vein or the carotid artery was reversed to the antidiuretic action by renal denervation, this time, the decrease of N $a^{+}$excretion amounts in urine ( $E_{Na}$ ) and the increase of N $a^{+}$ reabsorption rates in renal tubule ( $R_{Na}$ ) were exhibited. This results suggest that central diuretic action of UK 14, 304 is mediated by renal nerves and the antidiuretic action of UK 14, 304 in denervation kidney is caused by the increase of N $a^{+}$reabsorption rates ( $R_{Na}$ ) in renal tubules in dog.n dog.

Effect of yohimbine, a specific antagonist for presynaptic adrenoceptor, on the renal action of clonidine, a specific presynaptic adrenoceptor agonist, was investigated in dog. Clonidine, when given intravenously, produced diuretic action accompanied with augmentation of osmolar and free water clearance (Cosm and 4C_{H_2O}$), and elicited the increase of amounts of sodium and potassium excreted in urine ($E_{Na}\; and\; E_k$). These actions of clonidine were inhibited by yohimbine either injected intravenously or infused into a renal artery. Clonidine, when infused into a renal artery, produced antidiuretic action accompanied with decreased of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal plasma flow (RPF), and exhibited the reduced amounts of sodium and potassium in urine. These actions of clonidine injected into a renal artery were blocked by yohimbine administered either into vein or into a renal artery. Above results suggest that yohimbine block the renal action of clonidine only in central system, do not in kidney.

This study was performed in order to certify the antidiuretic action and to investigate the mechanism of antidiuretic action of debrisoquin infused into a renal artery in dog. Debrisoquin, when infused into a renal artery, exhibited the antidiuretic action accompanied the reductions of glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow, and the decreased amounts of sodium and potassium excreted in urine, limited only to the infused side, while control kidney function remained unchanged at all. The antidiuretic action of debrisoquin infused into a renal artery was blocked by pretreament of prazosin, $\alpha$$_1$-adrenergic blocking agent, or reserpine, catecholamine depleting agent. These results suggest that debrisoquin infused into a renal artery elicits antidiuretic action through indirect stimulation of renal sympathetic nerves.

In order to certify the diuretic mechanism of dopamine, this study was performed in dog. The following results were obtained. Dopamine, when given intravenously, produced diuresis, and increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), renal plasma flow (RPF), and amount of sodium excreted in urine. When infused directly into a renal artery, dopamine elicited a marked diuresis confined only to the infused side, with concomitant rises in osmolar clearance and sodium excretion as well as a slight increase in free water clearance. Simultaneously total renal plasma flow and medullary plasma flow increased markedly with a increase of glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow. Medullary concentration gradient of sodium also markedly lowered in the infused kidney. These changes were not observed during mannitol diuresis and renal action of dopamine were not apparent in dog pretreated with haloperidol. From the above experimental results, it is thought that dopamine, when given into a vien or infused directly into a renal artery, induces diuresis, and the mechanism of its action is due to dual actions which are hemodynamic effect along with glomerular filtraction rate, and the increased response in the medullary blood flow.

Influence of Akebiae Lignum on the renal function of the dog was observed with water-extract, utilizing clearance technique. Akebiae Lignum water-extract (AWE) given intravenously in does of 3.0mg/kg and 30.0mg/kg elicited a marked antidiuretic effect and produced a distinguished decrease of glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow as reduction of sodium and potassium excretion in urine, positive free water clearance and osmolar clearance. AWE infused into a renal artery in doses of 0.03mg/kg/min and 0.1mg/kg/min exhibited identical results to the intravenous action confined only to the infused kidney. These results suggest that AWE elicits antidiuresis in the dog by decreasing glomerulor filtration and renal plasma flow, which are caused by the constriction of vas afferens in the glomeruli.

This study was performed in order to investigate the effect of diltiazem, which is a $Ca^{2+}$ channel blocker of benzothiazepine derivatives, on renal function in the dog. Diltiazem, when infused into the vein or carotid artery, produced the antidiuresis accompanied with the decreased excretion rates of sodium and potassium in urine$(E_{Na},\;E_K)$ and the increased reabsorption rates of sodium and potassium in renal tubules$(R_{Na},\;R_K)$. Diltiazem, when infused into a renal artery, exhibited the diuresis along with the increased renal plasma flow(RPF), osmolar clearance$(C_{osm})$, $E_{Na}$ and $E_K$, and decreased $R_{Na}$ and $R_K$ in only infused kidney. Above results suggest that diltiazem possess both antidiuretic action through central action and diuretic action by direct inhibition of electrolytes reabsorption rates in renal tubules, mainly distal tubule.

A 7-year-old spayed female Shih Tzu dog was presented for evaluation of recurrent hypoglycemia. Serum insulin levels during hypoglycemia were 35.3 µIU/mL. Ultrasonography and computed tomography showed a mesenteric nodule between the kidney and the portal vein, but no pancreatic mass was observed. During surgery, the nodule had neither anatomical adhesions nor vascular connections to the pancreas. Pancreatic inspection and palpation revealed no abnormalities. Hypoglycemia improved after resection of the nodule. Histopathological examination confirmed the nodule to be an islet cell carcinoma. Although extremely rare, ectopic insulinoma should be considered as a possible cause of insulininduced hypoglycemia in dogs.
