Exploring the nephrotoxicity of sulfur-containing derivatives in sulfur-fumigated Panacis Quinquefolii Radix based on chemical profiling and untargeted metabolomics. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 301:115773. [PMID: 36191660 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.115773] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Panacis Quinquefolii Radix (PQR) is often illegally sulfur fumigated to extend shelf life and improve appearance, but existing regulations of detecting SO2 residues do not accurately identify desulfurized sulfur-fumigated PQR (SF-PQR). Although sulfur-containing derivatives (SCDs) have been reported in some sulfur-fumigated herbs, there is a lack of research on the generation mechanisms and toxicity of SCDs. Our previous study reported the nephrotoxicity of SF-PQR, and there is an urgent necessity to illuminate the mechanism of toxicity as well as its association with SCDs. AIM OF THE STUDY To investigate the transformation pattern of chemical components and SCDs in SF-PQR, and to disclose the linkage between SCDs and SF-PQR nephrotoxicity. MATERIALS AND METHODS The extracts of PQR (before and after SF) were detected by the UPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap-MS method, and SCDs were screened as quality markers (Q-markers). The composition of sulfur combustion products was examined by ion chromatography to exploit the conversion mechanism of SCDs. After administration of PQR extracts to mice for two weeks, serum was collected for GC-MS-based untargeted metabolomics study to mine for differential metabolites. The upstream genes were traced by network analysis to probe toxicity targets. Molecular docking was used to uncover the interactions between SCDs and the targets. RESULTS Thirty-three compounds were identified and 11 SCDs of saponins were screened, including four SO3 sulfonation products and five H2SO3 sulfonation products. Metabolomics study showed significant alterations in serum biochemistry of SF-PQR group, with substantial increases in fumarate and 2-heptanone content, and induced disturbances in glycerolipid metabolism and phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis in mice. Network analysis revealed that the key toxicity targets were DECR1, PLA2G1B, and CAT. Molecular docking indicated that SCDs had stable interaction forces with the above three toxicity targets. CONCLUSION SF-PQR caused kidney damage by affecting glycerolipid metabolism and phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis. Eleven SCDs were potential nephrotoxic substances and Q-markers for identifying SF-PQR. This study is the first to systematically elucidate the mechanism of SF-PQR-related nephrotoxicity, providing a robust basis for the construction of new quality control standards and a global prohibition of sulfur fumigation.

Abstract
Glycerol-induced acute renal failure is an experimental model for myoglobinuric nephropathy. Amifostine is a cytoprotective agent which scavenges the free radicals. Since there is enhanced production of reactive oxygen metabolites in glycerol-induced acute renal failure, we wanted to examine whether amifostine has a protective role against vascular reactivity and histological changes in kidneys isolated from glycerol-pretreated rabbits. Perfusion pressure was recorded from kidneys obtained from rabbits injected with glycerol 3 hr before the experiments and from glycerol-pretreated and non-pretreated rabbits injected with amifostine 30 min. before the experiments. Acetylcholine-induced (10(-8)-10(-5) M) vasodilatation was tested following the construction of submaximal vasoconstriction by phenylephrine. Histological investigation was performed using light microscope. Acetylcholine-induced vasodilatation was found to be significantly decreased in glycerol, glycerol+amifostine and amifostine groups compared to controls at all concentrations. Reduction in acetylcholine-induced vasodilation was more prominent in amifostine group compared to amifostine+glycerol group. There was histological renal damage in all experimental groups and this damage was more pronounced in glycerol+amifostine group. In conclusion, contrary to expectation, amifostine per se led to histological damage and potentiated the histological damage caused by glycerol and produced a decrease in acetylcholine-induced vasodilatation. The mechanisms by which amifostine exerts its effects are not known.

Abstract
We evaluated the feasibility of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for early detection of tubular injury by monitoring changes in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of renal water in a rat model of myohemoglobinuric glycerol-induced acute renal failure (ARF). Diffusion-weighted MRI was performed concurrently with measurements of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), evaluation of renal perfusion with dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI, and renal morphological examination. ADC values in the cortex and outer medulla significantly declined within minutes after the glycerol administration (70-75% of control at 4 min and 50-60% of control at 15 min). Contrast-enhanced MRI demonstrated renal hypoperfusion at 20 min after the onset of injury. Light microscopy showed normal glomeruli and edematous tubular epithelial cells at 10 and 30 min, with more severe swelling and protein casts at 30 min. No changes in serum creatinine or BUN levels were detected. We hypothesize that decrease in renal ADC may be attributed to renal ischemia and to subsequent intracellular accumulation of diffusion-restricted water. Similar imaging evaluation in other experimental models of ARF, and in patients, will define the diagnostic value of renal ADC changes in early detection of acute tubular injury.

Abstract
1. In this study the renal selectivity of dopamine and its prodrugs L-dopa and gludopa, with respect to their effects on regional blood flow, vascular resistance and central haemodynamics was investigated in normal rats and in rats with glycerol-induced acute renal failure (ARF). 2. In normal, anaesthetized rats, dopamine as well as its prodrugs caused a dose-dependent reduction of vascular resistance in the kidney (RR), mesentery (MR) and hindquarters (HQR) (dose range: dopamine: 0.1-5 mumol kg-1 h-1; L-dopa and gludopa: 1-200 mumol kg-1 h-1). Blood pressure and heart rate were affected at the highest dose only. 3. Administration of glycerol induced a preferential renal vasoconstriction; renal blood flow (-60%) and vascular resistance (+190%) were significantly more affected than MR (+40%) and HQR (+60%). This was only ameliorated by a low rate (10 mumol kg-1 h-1) infusion of gludopa: the glycerol-induced reduction of renal flow and increase in RR were significantly attenuated. A high dose of gludopa (100 mumol kg-1 h-1) or any dose of L-dopa or dopamine did not induce this beneficial effect. The glycerol-induced increase in MR and HQR was not attenuated by any of the treatments used. 4. The results indicate that gludopa is not renally selective at a pharmacodynamic level in normal, anaesthetized rats. Contrary to this, a low dose of gludopa does cause a renal selective vasodilatation and reduction of RR in rats with glycerol-induced ARF. This difference could be explained by a difference in renal vascular tone between normal rats and glycerol-induced ARF rats. A high dose ofgludopa does not cause these renal-selective effects: renal resistance and renal flow are at the same level as following glycerol and saline. This is probably due to the systemic effects of the released dopamine.

Abstract
1. The pharmacokinetics of gamma-glutamyl-L-dopa (gludopa) and its metabolite, L-dopa, have been studied in normal rats at three dose levels of gludopa: 2 mg kg-1, 5 mg kg-1 and 7.5 mg kg-1. The extent of metabolism in normal rats, and the pharmacokinetics in anephric rats and rats with glycerol-induced acute renal failure (ARF) were also studied at a gludopa dose of 2 mg kg-1. 2. Gludopa was extensively metabolised to L-dopa with only about 10% of an injected dose being excreted unchanged. Normal rats had a rapid gludopa clearance of 50.9 +/- 9.6 ml min-1 kg-1 and elimination rate constant of 2.99 +/- 0.27 h-1. The mean residence time and half-life were 20.9 +/- 1.4 and 14.4 +/- 1.0 min, respectively. The apparent volume of distribution at steady state was 1.05 +/- 0.18 l kg-1. 3. No statistically significant differences were found in the main pharmacokinetic parameters between ARF and controls for either gludopa or its metabolite L-dopa. 4. In anephric rats and controls the kidneys were found to contribute about 68.5% and 67.2% to the elimination of gludopa and the metabolite L-dopa, respectively. 5. These results confirm that gludopa is an efficient pro-drug for L-dopa, and that the kidneys are the major site of gludopa metabolism. It seems likely that the renal specificity of gludopa persists in ARF.

Abstract
Fifty of 100 persons who had undergone health screening received phosphate enema while the other 50 received glycerin enema prior to proctoscopy and barium enema, and their usefulness for preparation for colon examination was compared by a double-blind test. There was no significant difference in the degree of colonic cleansing achieved by proctoscopy and barium enema. In the subjects who received phosphate enema, the incidence of abdominal pain was less than that in those who received glycerin enema, while the effect of phosphate enema on defecation appeared later than that of glycerin enema, indicating prolonged stool retention in the subjects given phosphate enema. To study the safety of the two enemas, either phosphate enema, glycerin enema or physiological saline solution as a control was administered at 0.35 ml/animal in the rectum by 4-h closure of the anus in 10 male 7-week-old Wistar rats, and the rectal mucosa was observed for irritation macroscopically and histopathologically. Glycerin enema produced less irritation than phosphate enema diffusely in the entire area of the rectum, while phosphate enema produced more local irritation at the end of the rectum than glycerin enema. The differences in the extent of irritation and injury between phosphate and glycerin enemas were considered to be derived from differences in the pharmacologic actions of these drugs. If the extent of injury were included in the extent of irritation, the difference in irritation between phosphate and glycerin enemas would not be significant. As described above, no specific difference seem to exist in the usefulness of phosphate and glycerin enemas as preparation for colon examination.

Abstract
8-Phenyltheophylline (8-PT)(10 mg kg-1) or its vehicle(1 ml kg-1) were administered intravenously or intraperitoneally twice daily over 48 h to rats with acute renal failure (ARF) induced by intramuscular (i.m.) injection of glycerol. Rats treated with 8-PT i.v. had significantly lower plasma urea and creatinine levels at 24 and 48 h compared to untreated animals. The vehicle also reduced plasma urea and creatinine when compared to untreated controls. However, plasma urea levels in 8-PT-treated rats were significantly lower than in vehicle-treated animals at 24 and 48 h after both i.v. and i.p. administration. Plasma creatinine concentrations also tended to be lower in the 8-PT-treated group. [3H]-inulin clearance at 48 h after i.m. glycerol was significantly greater in rats dosed i.p. with 8-PT compared to either untreated or vehicle treated rats. Examination of kidneys taken from rats 48 h after i.m. glycerol showed that 8-PT treatment significantly reduced renal damage and kidney weight compared to the untreated or vehicle-treated groups. In a 7 day study all the rats which received 8-PT i.p. survived whilst in the vehicle and untreated groups the mortality rates were 12 and 21% respectively. In a separate series of experiments 8-PT (10 mg kg-1, i.v. or i.p.) was found to antagonize adenosine-induced bradycardia in conscious rats for up to 5 h. There is no clear explanation for the partial protection afforded by the vehicle but it may be related to either its alkalinity or an osmotic effect produced by the polyethylene glycol component. 9 The protective effect of 8-PT in rats with ARF was probably the result of adenosine antagonism.

Abstract
Out of 85 rabbits 2j received a purified 6% hemoglobin solution free of ghosts (1,8 gHb/Kg) and were compared to 14 animals receiving the same dose of a crude hemoglobin solution containing ghosts. 11 rabbits had 5 infusions with a daily dose of 1,2 g Hb/Kg of the stromafree solution. Controls were partly untreated partly infused with saline. Creatinin, urea, electrolytes, and haptoglobin were determined in the serum oxygen consumption was measured separately in cortex and medulla by Warburg technique, and all kidneys examined histologically. In both groups 20% of the animals died spontaneously. Both groups exhibited the typical morphological and functional signs of acute renal failure. There was an increase in creatinin, urea, and potassium in the serum and a gain in kidney weights. In cortex and medulla we found a 20% drop in O2 consumption in both groups. Thus there was no evidence that ghosts play any role in the pathogenesis of renal failure in hemolysis or in the course of Hb-infusions. even after 5 infusions with lower dose renal damage was demonstrable. The drop in haptoglobin levels indicates, that renal ischemia may be induced by a disturbance in hemoglobin breakdown. The pathogenesis of renal damage has to be elucidated before Hb-solutions come into therapeutical use.

Abstract
This investigation studies the toxicity of heme proteins and/or their break-down products on renal function. Heme proteinemia precedes acute tubule necrosis at a frequency great enough to suggest a causal relationship between the two events. Physiological and metabolic functions of kidney slices are investigated in several models of acute tubule necrosis. Organic acid and organic base transport is depressed earliest. These alterations in tubule function cannot be explained by ischemia or obstruction alone. Heme proteinemia in rats or incubation of renal slices in medium containing heme proteins yields several interesting observations. Neither in vivo or in vitro do hemoglobin and methemoglobin alone produce a depressive effect on the transport systems studied. However, parallel to many clinical situations, when such secondary insults as hypoxia and elevated ammonia concentrations are included in the experimental design, transport functions are depressed. Ferrihemate, a molecule smaller than hemoglobin or methemoglobin, depresses transport function without secondary insults. From these studies it is concluded that heme proteins play a role in tubule dysfunction seen in acute tubule necrosis. A model is presented that collates these data with other factors known to play a part in the pathogenesis of this renal syndrome.

Abstract
The role of renal ischemia in the pathogenesis of the renal failure produced by hemoglobin injection in the rat is evaluated. The data indicate that in the initial hours of this lesion renal blood flow is consistently reduced and that during its subsequent evolution blood flow rises towards normal levels, in some animals, while inulin clearance remains severely depressed. Volume expansion during the initial stage of the lesion may effect a rise in renal blood flow to normal levels with little effect on inulin clearance rate, further demonstrating the relative lack of dependence of the excretory defect on concomitant renal ischemia. These observations indicate that renal ischemia is probably a necessary factor in the initial production of the lesion; that it persists during its initial phase, up to 24 hours in most rats; and that, although it may contribute to the observed excretory defect, it is not the predominant etiologic factor. Other functional data indicate that renal blood is perfusing nephrons in which the excretory capacity is impaired but which retain the ability to extract Diodrast from the peritubular capillaries. This functional pattern indicates an excretory defect secondary either to intratubular obstruction or to a primary reduction of glomerular filtration rate of undefined etiology. The morphological findings of numerous dense intratubular hemoglobin casts and, in the well-perfused kidney, dilatation of proximal tubules, are suggestive of an obstructive lesion. However, the data do not conclusively distinguish between these two pathogenetic mechanisms.
