OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of potential inhibitors of membrane transport on the tubular secretion of AM188, an antiviral guanosine analog, in the isolated perfused rat kidney (IPK). METHODS AM188 was administered to the IPK perfusate as a bolus/infusion regimen. In inhibitor groups, probenecid, p-aminohippuric acid (PAH), cimetidine, or nitrobenzylthioinosine was added to the perfusing medium. RESULTS In control IPKs, the ratio of renal clearance of AM188 (CLR) to GFR was 7.7 +/- 0.51 (mean +/- SD). The CL(R)/GFR ratio for AM188 was 6.20 +/- 0.41*, 2.85 +/- 0.20*, 1.45 +/- 0.07*, and 0.80 +/- 0.01* when the concentration of probenecid in perfusate was 10, 50, 100, and 1000 microM, respectively (*p < 0.05 compared to control group); the ratio was 7.71 +/- 0.38, 6.02 +/- 0.42*, 1.71 +/- 0.15*, and 0.91 +/- 0.07* for the PAH group and 6.42 +/- 1.70*, 5.33 +/- 1.53*, 3.16 +/- 0.81*, and 1.21 +/- 0.20* for the cimetidine group when the concentrations were 10, 100, 1000 and 10,000 microM, respectively; and the ratio was 5.33 +/- 0.21* when the concentration of nitrobenzylthioinosine was 5 microM. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that renal tubular secretion of AM188 involves organic anion and cation transport systems.

D010477 Perfusion Treatment process involving the injection of fluid into an organ or tissue. Perfusions
D011339 Probenecid The prototypical uricosuric agent. It inhibits the renal excretion of organic anions and reduces tubular reabsorption of urate. Probenecid has also been used to treat patients with renal impairment, and, because it reduces the renal tubular excretion of other drugs, has been used as an adjunct to antibacterial therapy.
