[Lipid peroxidation in the kidney tissue of patients with nephrolithiasis and chronic pyelonephritis].
Lipid peroxidation (LPO) activity has been analyzed in homogenates and microsomes of cortical samples obtained intraoperatively from the kidneys of 33 patients. Of them, 21 patients had mild, moderate or severe pyelonephritis or nephrolithiasis. Unaffected cortical tissue from renal carcinoma patients was used as control. LPO activity was judged by basal level of malonic dialdehyde (MDA) and MDA growth in the homogenate and microsomes following initiation of ascorbate-dependent LPO. Activation of LPO was registered in patients with moderate disease with active inflammation. They also exhibited greater MDA basal levels and rapid MDA increase in response to in vitro initiation of ascorbate-dependent LPO simultaneously with attenuation of endogenous antioxidant defense. In severe pyelonephritis and nephrolithiasis with drastic deficiency of renal function LPO activity was low and nonresponsive to stimulation either by ascorbate or Fe+2. This is probably due to lack of the substrate after massive death of renal cells. Enhancement of LPO activity in patients with pyelonephritis or nephrolithiasis against functioning kidneys may appear responsible for destruction of renal tissue.
