Aluminum‐mediated metabolic changes in rat serum and urine: A proton nuclear magnetic resonance study

Abstract: The toxic effects of Al(3+) have been studied in 90-days AlCl(3) orally treated male albino rats (n = 7) using (1)H NMR spectroscopy-based metabolic profile of rat serum and urine, serum enzyme tests, behavioral impairment, and histopathology of kidney and liver. Metabolic profile of 90-days Al(3+)-treated rat sera showed significantly elevated levels of alanine, glutamine, beta-hydroxy-butyrate, and acetoacetate and significantly decreased level of acetone when compared with that of control rats. However, met… Show more

“…The results also agree with Kielczykowska M, et al who reported that lithium carbonate and L-ascorbic acid in co administration, in treated rats, in the form of water solution by stomach tube for 6 weeks caused slight increase in serum creatinine this agreed with group C in this study but different than groups (D and E) [22]. Tripathi S, et al explained this to be attributed to the fact that, the increment of creatinine in blood could be related to the reabsorption of creatinine in the glomerular filtrate, lower rates of glomerular filtration, which might be expected due to perturbation of the renin-angiotensin system [25]. This could cause reduction of renal cortical blood flow; which was evident in the present study by histopathological findings of the kidneyes.…”

“…This suggested that, the increase of uric acid in blood could be related to the lower rates of glomerular filtration, which might be expected due to perturbation of the renin-angiotensin system. As it could cause reduction of renal cortical blood flow as stated by Tripathi S, et al [25]. This was evident in the present study by the histopathological findings of the kidneys.…”
