Oxidative stress during ischemia-reperfusion acute renal failure (IR-ARF) was noninvasively evaluated with in vivo electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) imaging. Female ICR mice underwent left nephrectomy and 30-min ischemia-reperfusion of the right kidney. Oxidative stress was evaluated as organ reducing activity with the half-lives of the spin probe 3-carbamoyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidine-1-oxyl (carbamoyl-PROXYL) using 1) conventional L-band EPR, which showed organ-reducing activity in the whole abdominal area; and 2) EPR imaging, which showed semiquantitative but organ-specific reducing activity. The results were compared with the reducing activity of organ homogenate and phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide (PC-OOH) concentrations. Half-lives of carbamoyl-PROXYL in the whole upper abdominal area, measured by L-band EPR, were prolonged on day 3 after ischemia-reperfusion and recovered to the level of nontreated mice on day 7. This trend resembled closely that of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen concentration. The EPR imaging-measured carbamoyl-PROXYL half-life was also prolonged on day 3 in both the kidney and the liver. However, in the kidney this showed only partial recovery on day 7. In the liver, this convalescence was more remarkable. The ex vivo studies of organ reducing activity and PC-OOH agreed with the results from EPRI, but not with those from L-band EPR. These results indicate that renal reducing activity shows only partial recovery on day 7 after ischemia-reperfusion, when serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen have recovered. EPR imaging is an appropriate and useful method for the noninvasive evaluation of oxidative stress in the presence of renal injury.

The number of mononitrosyl iron complexes with diethyldithiocarbamate, formed in the liver of mice in vivo and in vitro after intraperitoneal injection of binuclear dinitrosyl iron complexes with N-acetyl-L-cysteine or glutathione, S-nitrosoglutathione, sodium nitrite or the vasodilating drug Isoket® was assessed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The number of the said complexes, in contrast to the complexes, formed after nitrite or Isoket administration, the level of which sharply increased after treatment of liver preparations with a strong reducing agent - dithionite, did not change in the presence of dithionite. It was concluded that, in the first case, EPR-detectable mononitrosyl iron complexes with diethyldithiocarbamate in the absence and presence of dithionite appeared as a result of the reaction of NO formed from nitrite with Fe2+-dieth- yldithiocarbamate and Fe3+-diethyldithiocarbamate complexes, respectively. In the second case, mononitrosyl iron complexes with diethyldithiocarbamate appeared as a result of the transition of iron-mononitosyl fragments from ready-made iron-dinitrosyl groups of binuclear dinitrosyl complexes, which is three to four times higher than the content of the mononuclear form of these complexes in the tissue...
