Morphology of preglomerular vessels in the RK and RK+OA rats. Compared with RK rats (A, x400, PAS; D, x400, PCNA+ -SMA double-staining), there was marked wall thickening with smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation in RK+OA rats (B, x400, PAS; E, x400, PCNA+ -SMA double-staining). Occasional arteries in RK+OA rats showed an increase in SMC number, migration of SMC into intima consistent with an obliterative arteriopathy (C, x400, PAS). Perivascular adventitial fibrosis was also prominent in RK+OA rats (F, x400, Collagen III immunostaining).
Reduction of uric acid levels was associated with BP control and protection of interstitial injury (experiment IV). Rats were placed on LS/OA diet (OA 2%) for 7 weeks and then matched on the basis of uric acid level and BP into 3 groups: (1) OA 2%, (2) withdrawal of OA but continuation of the LS diet (OA withdrawal), and (3) the addition of allopurinol (150 mg/L drinking water) with continuation of the OA 2% diet (allopurinol). Panel A shows the BP, and panel B shows the uric acid levels. * P <0.05 vs other groups. Control of uric acid and BP levels was associated with a reduction in the tubulointerstitial injury index, as shown by OPN (magnification, x200; C through E) and type III collagen (magnification, x100; F through H) immunostaining. Panels C and F show kidneys after OA (2%) was continued for 11 weeks, panels D and G show kidneys after OA withdrawal, and panels E and H show kidneys from OA-treated rats that received allopurinol.
