Pathophysiological model of chronic heart failure complicated with renal failure caused by three-quarter nephrectomy and subcutaneous injection of isoprenaline

Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the pathophysiological changes in a rat chronic heart failure complicated with renal failure model, caused by three-quarters nephrectomy and subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (ISO). Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats in the model group received three-quarters nephrectomy after twice undergoing surgical resections and subcutaneous injection of ISO (100 mg/kg body weight, injected twice, with a 24 h interval) after one week, while rats in the control group received sham surgery and in… Show more

“…One of the expected physiological consequences of HF is the reduction of urinary volume, a significant marker of renal dysfunction, a pathophysiological context involved in the cardiorenal syndrome (19,20). Therefore, our results show that the groups induced to HF showed a marked reduction in the urinary parameters analyzed (Figures 5, 6 and 7), and these results have already been exposed and discussed in previous studies (21,22). Thus, the observed results are in agreement with the literature.…”

“…We also examined the serum levels of BNP for each treatment. BNP is a natriuretic peptide that regulates a spectrum of physiological and pathophysiological activities by decreasing cardiorenal filling overload (20). BNP is secreted by atrial myocytes under normal conditions.…”

“…BNP levels were measured to assess the severity of heart failure (20) and were calculated by analyzing blood samples from every animal in each group at week 6. BNP levels were measured using the mouse BNP enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (Wuhan EIAab Science Co., Ltd., Wuhan, China) according to the manufacturer's instructions.…”
