[The influence of peptides on the morphofunctional state of old rats kidneys.].

More than a quarter of the elderly and senile age population suffers from kidney pathology. For this reason, a prophylaxis of kidney diseases with the safe and effective nephroprotectors is a priority of gerontology. An influence of polypeptide kidney complex (PKC), peptides AED, EDL, AEDG on the functional state of old rats kidneys was studied in research.

[Renoprotective effects of statins under the conditions of acute renal failure, caused by rhabdomyolysis].

The experiment on white rats was targeted at the examination of influence of statins (atorvastatin, lovastatin, simvastatin) under the conditions of acute renal failure, caused by rhabdomyolysis. Renoprotective effects of statins were demonstrated by reduction of hyperazotemia and proteinuria and improvement of renal excretory function, which correlated with antioxidant properties of drugs.

[Renoprotective efficacy of different doses of statins in experimental acute renal failure].

The effect of three statins (atorvastatin, lovastatin, simvastatin) on the renal function under conditions of experimental acute renal failure in rats was studied. The relatively effective doses were found to possess the most considerable renoprotective properties. All the statins were established to cause the restoration of functional activity of the kidneys under conditions of experimental rhabdomyolytic acute renal failure at various doses, but with the dose of 20 mg/kg they showed the most significant improvement in key indices of kidney function: an increase in diuresis by an average of 32% and glomerular filtration rate by an average of 90%, reduction of proteinuria in more than twice.
