Vacuolization, Dilatation, Hyaline Cast, Debris or Degeneration: Which One Is the Most Correlated Item to Score the Kidney Damage Pathologically in Cisplatin Induced Nephrotoxicity Model?

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Nephrotoxicity is characterized and scored by many parameters such as vacuolization, dilatation, hyaline cast, debris or degeneration in injured renal tissue. In this short report, we attempt to find, the most correlated parameters with kidney tissue pathology damage score (PDS) in Cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. METHOD: A total of 207 normal and toxic rats’ kidney tissue (induced by Cisplatin) were evaluated for toxicity intensity by two methods. In the first method, the tissue damage was scored from 0 to 4, and in the second method the percentage of vacuolization, dilatation, hyaline cast, debris or degeneration were determined. The data was analyzed using stepwise discriminant function and regression analysis. RESULTS: The variables having the higher discriminant function coefficient were hyaline cast, dilatation, and degeneration. The linear regression model and the prediction function to determine the kidney tissue PDS were generated as below. PDS = 0.445 + 0.035 × hyaline cast + 0.013 × dilatation + 0.020 × degeneration CONCLUSION: According to this finding it is suggested that presence of hyaline cast and dilatation, and then degeneration in the sample of toxic renal tissue are the most important item to score the damage intensity. |
