Changes in Oxygen Consumption of Kidney during Maturation

Abstract: Oxygen consumption of kidney slices from 20- and 30-day-old immature rats from normal and fastgrowing litters, as well as of adults, has been determined. Qo2 with endogenous substrate is less in slices of 20-day-old of both fast and slowgrowing animals, while the endogenous Qo2 of slices from fastgrowing 30-day-old rats is significantly higher than that of mature animal kidney. Endogenous Qo2 decreases with time. The amount of decrease is less in 20-day-old renal slices than in… Show more

“…This difference could be due to the increase in aerobic metabolism of kidney tissue found in the rat between the age of 30 and 60 days (Caldwell & Solomon, 1975;Capek, Drahota, Jelinek & Kunei, 1976) and is also manifested by the increase of renal cytochrome oxidase activity found at this time.…”

“…Other groups of workers also found no or only small differences in oxygen consump tion of slices in dependence on age [9,10,29,30]. In contrast, anaerobic glycolysis is better developed in newborn rat kidney cortex and medulla [10].…”

“…In general, kid neys from adult animals have been investi gated. In the newborn kidney only oxygen consumption, anaerobic glycolysis and gluconeogenesis have been studied [3,9,10,29].…”
