guanidine and Renal Insufficiency

guanidine has been researched along with Renal Insufficiency in 3 studies

Guanidine: A strong organic base existing primarily as guanidium ions at physiological pH. It is found in the urine as a normal product of protein metabolism. It is also used in laboratory research as a protein denaturant. (From Martindale, the Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed and Merck Index, 12th ed) It is also used in the treatment of myasthenia and as a fluorescent probe in HPLC.
guanidine : An aminocarboxamidine, the parent compound of the guanidines.

Renal Insufficiency: Conditions in which the KIDNEYS perform below the normal level in the ability to remove wastes, concentrate URINE, and maintain ELECTROLYTE BALANCE; BLOOD PRESSURE; and CALCIUM metabolism. Renal insufficiency can be classified by the degree of kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE.

"A model of renal failure has been developed in male C57BL x Swiss-Webster mice using nephrectomy (NX) and/or arterial ligation."1.30Biochemical and histopathological changes in nephrectomized mice. ( Al Banchaabouchi, M; D'Hooge, R; De Deyn, PP; Levillain, O; Marescau, B; Van Daele, A; Van Marck, E, 1998)
"The four lenses from the renal failure patients were searched for evidence of carbamylation at lysyl or cysteinyl residues: carbamylation was not detected."1.29Glutathione adducts, not carbamylated lysines, are the major modification of lens alpha-crystallins from renal failure patients.
