8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) was examined in the kidneys of rats after single i.p. administration of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) for variable periods of time at various doses along with the measurement of lipid peroxidation and serum biochemical parameters and histopathological examination. Though lipid peroxide level increased rapidly and decreased sharply after reaching a much higher peak 1 h after treatment, significant higher levels of 8-OH-dG were observed at 1, 6 and 24 h after injection. On the other hand, the increase of 8-OH-dG formation was observed in a similar dose-dependent manner to the appearance of nephrotoxic responses in terms of serum biochemical and histopathological changes.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D011919 Rats, Inbred Strains Genetically identical individuals developed from brother and sister matings which have been carried out for twenty or more generations or by parent x offspring matings carried out with certain restrictions.

D001806 Blood Urea Nitrogen The urea concentration of the blood stated in terms of nitrogen content. Serum (plasma) urea nitrogen is approximately 12% higher than blood urea nitrogen concentration because of the greater protein content of red blood cells. Increases in blood or serum urea nitrogen are referred to as azotemia and may have prerenal, renal, or postrenal causes.

D003849 Deoxyguanosine A nucleoside consisting of the base guanine and the sugar deoxyribose.
D004249 DNA Damage Injuries to DNA that introduce deviations from its normal, intact structure and which may, if left unrepaired, result in a MUTATION or a block of DNA REPLICATION. These deviations may be caused by physical or chemical agents and occur by natural or unnatural, introduced circumstances. They include the introduction of illegitimate bases during replication or by deamination or other modification of bases; the loss of a base from the DNA backbone leaving an abasic site; single-strand breaks; double strand breaks; and intrastrand (PYRIMIDINE DIMERS) or interstrand crosslinking. Damage can often be repaired (DNA REPAIR). If the damage is extensive, it can induce APOPTOSIS. DNA Injury,DNA Lesion,DNA Lesions,Genotoxic Stress,Stress, Genotoxic,Injury, DNA,DNA Injuries
