title: [The effect of reaferon on the level of catecholamines and mitochondrial enzymes in the ischemic kidney].
abstract: The effect of reaferon (introduced at a dose of 1 x 10(6) IU/kg over six days prior to ischemia induction) on the levels of catecholamines and the activity of succinate dehydrogenase and NADH-dehydrogenase in various structures of kidney was studied in experiments on white rats. The ischemia was modeled by 90-min ligation of renal vessels. Reaferon retained the luminescence of catecholamines in all renal structures 24 h after circulation was restored on the level of intact kidney, except for the nerve trunks where the luminescence intensity decreased by 40%. Preliminary introduction of reaferon stimulated restoration of the enzymatic activity in the Krebs cycle and mitochondrial respiratory chain after 24- and 48-h revascularization, respectively.
