We have previously shown that the renal necrosis observed after 2-bromohydroquinone (2-BrHQ) administration to rats is probably caused by the formation of 2-Br-(diglutathion-S-yl)HQ (2-Br-[diGSyl]HQ), since injection of this conjugate caused severe proximal tubular necrosis. In the present study we report

The basis of extracellular acidosis amelioration of 2-bromohydroquinone (BHQ)-induced renal proximal tubular cell death was determined by comparing the metabolism, uptake and mitochondrial effects of BHQ (0.2 mM) and bromoquinone (BQ) (0.05 mM) on isolated rabbit renal proximal tubules incubated

Vibrational spectral measurements, namely, infrared (4000-400 cm(-1)) and Raman (3500-50 cm(-1)) spectra have been made for 2-Bromohydroquinone. Optimized geometrical structures, harmonic vibrational frequencies and intensities have been computed by the ab initio (RHF), B-based (BLYP, BP86) and B3-based (B3P86, B3LYP

Because methimazole has antioxidant properties, the effects of methimazole treatment on cephaloridine, S-(1,2-dichlorovinyl)-L-cysteine (DCVC), 2-bromohydroquinone (2-BHQ) and cis-diaminedichloroplatinum (II) (cisplatin)-induced nephrotoxicity were investigated. Rats given cephaloridine (1 g/kg), cisplatin (5 mg/kg), DCVC (100 mg/kg) or 2-BHQ (157 mg/kg) i.p. exhibited
