CORRECTION OF THE KIDNEYS STRUCTURE DISTURBANCES IN RATS WITH SUBLIMATE NEPHROPATHY USING A COMBINATION OF TAURIN WITH ZINC DIASPARTATE

Abstract

A combination of taurine (20g/mole, 2.5 g) with zinc diaspartate (1 g/mole, 0.35g) named “taucine”, administrated in the rat stomach at doses of 250 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg over 14 days has a dose-dependent nephro-protective action in rats with sublimate nephropathy ( intraabdominally 0.1 mg/kg over 14 days) . It manifests in an increased volume of the primary urine in cortical nephrons glomerales because of a weakened compression of their capsule by hydropic fluid, in reduction of the inner diameter of cortical nephrons proximal convoluted tubules as consequence of a less pronounced «inner tubular» hydronephrosis and increased height of lining epithelial cells. A detailed analysis of the latter shows that they are less damaged by sublimate: the percentage of undamaged cells increases because of decrease with destruction of apical sections and increase of cells height by ½ as well.
