Abstract

Rats were subjected to a two-stage 5/6 nephrectomy and treated with Al for 2 and 4 wk with a cumulative dose of 4.2 and 8.4 mg of Al, respectively. Other animals were parathyrectomized (PTx) and loaded with 8.4 mg of Al for 4 wk. Total Al, Ca, P, Mg, and Cu contents were analyzed in the liver, kidney, and bone by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). The results showed that Al given to growing uremic rats significantly increased the content of Al in the liver, kidney, and bone. Moreover, Al treatment increased the liver and kidney Ca levels and decreased the Ca and P values in bone. Previous parathyroidectomy significantly reduced Al accumulation within organs and changes in the Ca and P levels in the bone, liver, and kidney. The result was not influenced by different degrees of renal failure.
