An Experimental Model of Analgesic-Induced Renal Damage—Some Effects of ρ-Aminophenol on Rat Kidney Mitochondria

Abstract: 1. p-Aminophenol, a known nephrotoxin, has been studied as a model for phenacetin-induced renal damage. 2. Respiration, oxidative phosphorylation and ATPase activity were inhibited in mitochondria isolated from the kidneys of treated rats; this could not be reversed by the addition of exogenous loosely bound cofactors and bovine serum albumin to the assay medium. 3. After treatment the mitochondrial levels of sodium and calcium were increased, potassium decreased and magnesium unaltered. 4. Mitochondria isolat… Show more

“…PAP undergoes non-enzymatic oxidation in aqueous solutions to form numerous byproducts including benzoquinoneimine and para-aminophenoxy radical (Josephy et al 1983). These reactive intermediates may be responsible for mitochondrial damage and covalent binding observed with PAP (Crowe et al, 1977(Crowe et al, , 1979Kruidering et al, 1994). However, PAP has also been shown to cause lipid peroxidation, measured as 4-hydroxynonenal-adducted proteins (Harmon et al, 2005(Harmon et al, , 2006.…”

“…Subcellular localisation of the covalent binding in the kidney showed that the nuclear and mitochondrial fractions had the largest percentage of bound material . Impaired mitochondrial function appears to be an early effect following PAP administration (Crowe et al 1977): the extent of covalent binding to cortical mitochondrial proteins may provide a better measure of toxicity. Calder et al (1979) and Newton et al (1983) found more extensive binding of radiolabel from 3H-PAP to renal compared to hepatic microsomal proteins.…”

“…Indeed, Crowe et al (1977) demonstrated that, whereas oxidative phosphorylation and respiratory control were significantly reduced in mitochondria isolated from PAP-treated rats, when added directly to mitochondria from naive rats, PAP failed to alter respiratory activity, suggesting that PAP itself does not have a direct effect on mitochondria. This group further suggest that a metabolite of PAP, possibly formed in the liver, may be responsible for the mitochondrial damage.…”
