The rhizoma of Polygonatum odoratum (Liliaceae) has been used as the treatment of body fluid deficiency, dryness symptoms and hyper glycemia. To study effects on acute renal failure of P. odorati rhizoma, urinary volume, urinary electrolytes and serum factors associated with renal dysfunction were measured in $HgCl_2-induced$ acute renal failure rats. It was revealed that its ether ex. had significant diuretic effects, regulated hypoelectrolytes$(Na^+,\;K^+,\;Cl^-)$ and inhibited the increase of creatinine, BUN in acute renal failure rats. From the ether ex. which was more effective than MeOH ex., three lipophilic compounds were isolated and elucidated hydrocarbon(l), ${\beta}-sitosteryl$ stearate(2), ${\beta}-sitosterol$(3). The ${\beta}-sitosteryl$ stearate(2) were isolated from Polygonatum sp. at first.

To investigate the recorded efficacy in Oriental medical references and effects in clinics, experimental studies were undertaken to estimate 'Palmiwhan' to the diuretic effect in normal rats, rabbits and rats with $HgCl_2-induced$ acute renal failure and hypotensive effects on the nephrogenous hypertension in rabbits with $HgCl_2-induced$ acute renal failure. The results of this study were summarized as follows; Increase in urinary volume, urinary $Na^+\;and\;Cl^-$ excretions were significantly recognized in normal rats and rabbits. Increase in urinary volume, urinary $Na^+\;and\;Cl^-$ excretions were significantly shown in rats with 2mg/kg $HgCl_2-induced$ acute renal failure. Although plasma electrolyte and creatinine levels were little affected, plasma urea nitrogen levels were significantly elevated in normal rats and 2mg/kg $HgCl_2-induced$ acute renal failure of rats. Although the blood pressure was not affected in normal rabbits and cats, hypotensive actions due to the diuretic effect were recognized in rabbits $HgCl_2-induced$ acute renal failure.

Objective : The aim of this experiment is to investigate the effect of acupuncture and moxibustion at SP6(Sanyinjiao) and BL28(Pangguanshu) on uranyl acetate-induced acute renal failure in rats. Methods : To induce experimental acute renal failure, uranyl acetate was intraperitoneally injected to rats by 5mg/kg. 3 days later acupuncture and moxibustion treatment was done at SP6(Sanyinjiao) and BL28(Pangguanshu) bilaterally of the rats. And then 4 days later, we measured rats' body weight, kidney weight, serum BUN, creatinine and serum eletrolyte levels(Na, K and Cl). Results : In the moxibustion group, hypertrophy index of kidney and serum BUN level were decreased marginally significantly, and serum creatinine, K levels were decreased significantly. But in the acupuncture group, there was no significance at this experiment. Conclusions : SP6(Sanyinjiao) and BL28(Pangguanshu) moxibustion can decrease serum BUN, creatinine, and serum eletrolyte levels on uranyl acetate-induced acute renal failure in rats. And the study will be done continuously about non-effect in the acupuncture group at this experiment.

It has been reported that the pharmacokinetic behaviors of drugs which are mostly metabolized in the liver are significantly different in patients with renal failure. Theophylline(TP) is mainly metabolized in the liver (approximately 90%) and renal clearance of the drug is negligible (less than 10%). Therefore, we have investigated the changes in pharmacokinetics of theophylline in normal, G-ARF and U-ARF rats after an intravenous administration. The total body clearance of TP decreased approximately 40% in U-ARF rats. The reduced CL$_{T}$, value in U-ARF rats could be due to reduced hepatic intrinsic clearance by up to 40% since it has been published that plasma protein binding of TP and liver blood flow does not change in U-ARF rats.

Objective: The primary objective this study was to evaluate the effect of Paljeong-san (PJS) pharmacopuncture treatment on against the glycerol-induced acute renal failure in rats. Methods: Glycerol injection decreased GFR (glomerular filtration rate) and increased urine volume, serum creatinine, BUN level, urine albumine secretion and fractional excretion of Na+, K+. PJS was selected in the basis of invigorating kidney which can eliminate pathogens. Rats were treated with PJS pharmacopuncture on Shin-shu (BL23) and Chon-chu (ST25) point for 3 days, followed by 50% concentration of glycerol injection ($5m{\ell}/kg$ body weight). Results: After the 3 days treatment period, Paljeong-san (PJS) pharmacopuncture treatment improved renal function. In addition, Glycerol injection increased lipid peroxidation, and decreased Na-K-ATPase in renal cortex and which were prevented by PJS treatment. Conclusion: This study suggests that Paljeong-san (PJS) pharmacopuncture treatment show favorable effect on glycerol-induced acute renal failure in rats.

The present study was designed to examine whether water extract of Acanthopanacis cortex(AC) has an effect on renal functional parameters in association with the expression of aquaporin 2 (AQP-2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in the ischemia/reperfusion induced acute renal failure (ARF) rats. Polyuria caused by down-regulation of renal AQP 2 in the ischemia-induced ARF rats was markedly restored by administration of AC (200 mg/kg, p.o.) with restoring expression of AQP 2 in the kidney. Administration of AC lowered the renal expression of HO-1, which was upregulated in rats with ischemia/reperfusion-induced ARF. The renal functional parameters including creatinine clearance, urinary sodium excretion, urinary osmolality, and solute-free reabsorption were also markedly restored in ischemia-ARF rats by administration of AC. Histological study also showed that renal damages in the ARF rats were abrogated by administration of AC. Taken together, the present data indicate that AC ameliorates renal defects in rats with ischemia/reperfusion-induced ARF.

1. Objective : The present author have examined the comparative effects of Hyeongbangjihwang-tang and Sibimikwanjung-tang in glycerol-induced acute renal failure, a model for myoglobinuric acute renal failure. 2. Methods : Above two prescriptions were applied to rat ad libitum and serum level of creatinine, glucose and blood urea nitrogen(BUN) were measured. And serum level of $Na^+$, $K^+$ and $Cl^-$, too. 50%(vol/vol) glycerol at a dose of 10 ml/kg of rat body weight intramuscularly and 1% concentration of prescriptions were applied to rats for 7 days ad libitum. 3. Results : Serum level of creatinine and $K^+$ significantly increased by glycerol injection, and these showed pre-renal and renal cause of acute renal failure. Hyeongbangjihwang-tang administered group showed decreasing tendency on serum level of creatinine when compared with control groups, but not significant. Sibimikwanjung-tang administered group showed significant increase of serum level of BUN when compared with control groups. 4. Conclusions : Above two prescriptions showed no significant changes on glycerol induced acute renal failure, but Hyeongbangjihwang-tang and Sibimikwanjung-tang showed a little different manner of response.

In order to investigate whether the function of distal nephron is disturbed in adenine-induced renal failure rats, we measured the urinary kallikrein level in adenine-ingesting rats fed on 0.75% adenine diet for 1 to 10 days. Administration of 0.75% adenine to rats significantly increased blood urea nitrogen level and urine volume, while the level of kallikrein along with the urinary excretions of urea and inorganic phosphate were significantly decreased. From these results, it is suggested that adenine-induced renal failure is caused by early deterioration of distal nephron as well as proximal nephron.
