Urinary Excretion of N-acetyl-.BETA.-D-Glucosaminidase and Its Isoenzymes in Cats with Urinary Disease.

Abstract: ABSTRACT. The present study was designed to assess the clinical usefulness of measurement of urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) activity and its isoenzymes in cats with urinary disease. Thirty-five healthy cats and 9 cats with renal disease were used. Furthermore, a 5-year-old female cat was administered a large amount of sulfonamide in order to induce acute renal failure, and urine samples were collected for the assay of NAG activity and its isoenzymes. Urinary NAG activity was measured using p-nitrop… Show more

“…In the present study, urinary NAG and GGT indices were measured as markers of renal injury. These indices are used as markers of various renal disorders [12,14,26,28,29,33]. During the experimental period, these urinary enzyme indices were elevated in 2 of 5 dogs.…”

“…Ademais, gatos com insuficiência renal crônica demonstraram elevação dessa enzima antes da elevação das concentrações séricas de ureia e creatinina (SATO et al, 2002). Essa enzima também pode ser uma ferramenta interessante na monitoração da lesão renal progressiva durante a terapia de gatos com hipertireoidismo (LAPOINTE et al, 2008).…”

“…However other studies did not reveal differences between males and females (Uechi et al 1994a;Sato et al 2002b). In cats, no differences were found between males and females (Sato et al 2002a;Jepson et al 2010a). Changes in urine pH do not affect the urinary NAG in dogs (Brunker et al 2009).…”
