Experimental renal papillary necrosis. Effects of beta adrenergic receptor blockade, heparin and hydrocortisone
Abstract
Renal papillary necrosis was induced in rats by daily subcutaneous injection of 15 mg 2-bromoethylamine hydrobromide (BEA) per 100 g of body weight for 2 successive days. This dose was 50% higher than that reported previously. Beta adrenergic receptor blockade with oxyprenolol did not influence the kidney damage. The administration of heparin did not show any effect. The doses applied did not induce the incoagulability for a sufficient period of time. On the contrary, treatment with hydrocortisone decreased papillary necrosis without inducing increased diuresis.
