Branched-chain hydrocarbon-induced nephropathy in male rats was examined using 2,3,4-trimethylpentane. Lesions are elected only in male rats, not in females or in controls. Mechanisms of nephropathy may be the interaction of metabolites with the male rat-specific protein alpha 2u globulin.

Primary proximal tubule suspension cultures exposed to solubilized 2,3,4-trimethylpentane (2,3,4-TMP) resulted in a linear dose response, as determined by cellular lactate dehydrogenase leakage. The EC50 for 2,3,4-TMP was 16.3 mM. Metabolite analysis by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry of supernate and cell
