We have reported that (1) the synthesis of GSA, a uremic toxin, increases depending on the urea concentration and (2) GSA is formed from argininosuccinic acid (ASA) and the hydroxyl radical or SIN-1 which generates superoxide and NO simultaneously. However

Guanidine, creatinine (CTN), methylguanidine (MG) and guanidinosuccinic acid (GSA) are four endogenous guanidino compounds with proven neuroexcitatory actions, and putative pathophysiological significance as uraemic toxins. The effects of these uraemic guanidino compounds, were studied on whole-cell current evoked by gamma-amino

Patients with renal failure retain a large variety of uraemic solutes, characterized by different kinetic behaviour. It is not entirely clear what the impact is of increasing dialysis frequency and/or duration on removal efficiency, nor whether this impact is the

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) accounts for 7-10% of all dialyzed renal insufficient patients. Accumulation of specific guanidino compounds (GCs) has been related to neurological, cardiovascular, hematological, and immunological complications of renal failure. In this study, we investigate whether the PKD/Mhm

The concentration of NZ-419 (5-hydroxy-1-methylimidazolidine-2,4-dione), an intrinsic antioxidant, has been shown to increase in the sera of animals and patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). This is the first report that orally administered exogenous NZ-419 prevents the initiation and/or progression
