[Urinary excretion kinetics of enzymes and proteins in the application of therapeutic doses of gentamycin]. 1978

U Burchardt, and G Schinköthe, and G Müller, and L Neef, and H Krosch

9 patients with chronic pyelonephritis were given gentamicin intramuscularly in an appropriate dosage for a period of 10 days. The urinary excretion of cells, protein, alanine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.2),N-acetylglucosaminidase(EC 3.2.1.30) and alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) was determined daily. The most striking enzyme increase occurred in alanine aminopeptidase. The enzyme and protein output appears to be rhythmic and discontinuous. A 2--3-day rhythm is suggested. Rhythmic alterations of the digestion activity of the lysosomes are assumed to be the cause of these changes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008247 Lysosomes A class of morphologically heterogeneous cytoplasmic particles in animal and plant tissues characterized by their content of hydrolytic enzymes and the structure-linked latency of these enzymes. The intracellular functions of lysosomes depend on their lytic potential. The single unit membrane of the lysosome acts as a barrier between the enzymes enclosed in the lysosome and the external substrate. The activity of the enzymes contained in lysosomes is limited or nil unless the vesicle in which they are enclosed is ruptured or undergoes MEMBRANE FUSION. (From Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed). Autolysosome,Autolysosomes,Lysosome
D011507 Proteinuria The presence of proteins in the urine, an indicator of KIDNEY DISEASES. Proteinurias
D011704 Pyelonephritis Inflammation of the KIDNEY involving the renal parenchyma (the NEPHRONS); KIDNEY PELVIS; and KIDNEY CALICES. It is characterized by ABDOMINAL PAIN; FEVER; NAUSEA; VOMITING; and occasionally DIARRHEA. Necrotizing Pyelonephritis,Pyelonephritis, Acute Necrotizing,Pyelonephritides
D004798 Enzymes Biological molecules that possess catalytic activity. They may occur naturally or be synthetically created. Enzymes are usually proteins, however CATALYTIC RNA and CATALYTIC DNA molecules have also been identified. Biocatalyst,Enzyme,Biocatalysts
D005839 Gentamicins A complex of closely related aminoglycosides obtained from MICROMONOSPORA purpurea and related species. They are broad-spectrum antibiotics, but may cause ear and kidney damage.
