Comparative nephrotoxicity of aspirin and phenacetin derivatives.

Both aspirin and phenacetin derivatives were shown to be nephrotoxic when administered to rats as a single intravenous injection. Phenacetin derivatives tended to produce more severe renal damage and to be nephrotoxic in smaller doses than aspirin derivatives. With the exception of a single derivative, the renal lesions were confined to the proximal convoluted tubule, even after administration of compounds which under other conditions have induced renal papillary necrosis.

Kidney lesions induced in rats by p-aminophenol.

Necrosis of the terminal third of the proximal convulated tubule develops in rats after a single intravenous injection of p-aminophenol hydrochloride. As the tubules regenerate a chronic inflammatory reaction occurs in the interstitial tissue, and this reaction extends beyond the original zone of injury. These findings are additional evidence that some aromatic compounds are selectively nephrotoxic and may be particularly relevant to the problem of renal damage associated with heavy and prolonged doses of analgesics.
