Effect of cephalosporins on organic ion transport in renal membrane vesicles from rat and rabbit kidney cortex.
The effects of cephaloridine and cephalothin on prototypical organic anion (p-aminohippurate, PAH) and cation (N-methylnicotinamide, NMN) transport were observed in brush border and basolateral membrane vesicles prepared from rat and rabbit renal cortex. The cephalosporins interacted with both the cationic and anionic transport systems. Cephalothin inhibited PAH transport in basolateral and brush border membrane in both rats and rabbits. Cephaloridine on the other hand inhibited PAH and NMN transport across rabbit basolateral membranes while it showed a lack of interaction with transport systems in rat basolateral membranes. Conversely, cephaloridine inhibited brush border transport of PAH and NMN in the rat but not in the rabbit. These results provide indirect evidence that cephalothin may be secreted across the renal tubule cell in rats and rabbits while cephaloridine may not accumulate in the rat kidney and becomes trapped in rabbit renal tubule cells. The differences in transport effects observed may explain intra- and interspecies differences in susceptibility to cephalosporin nephrotoxicity.
