Effect of 20% fructose feeding and dietary salt on RNA expression in the renal cortex of rats
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Elevated fructose consumption has been associated with metabolic and renal diseases. It is controversial whether kidney problems are a result of systemic metabolic disease or stem, at least in part, from changes due to local fructose metabolism. To study the short-term effect of fructose on genetic programs in renal proximal tubules, the diet for rats in experimental groups was supplemented for 7 days with 20% fructose in the drinking water. Two sets of 8 rats each on different baseline rodent diets were used in this study. 4 animals of each set received fructose in the drinking water while the other 4 served as controls. Animals were sacrificed after the experimental period of 7 days and slices of superficial kidney cortex were used for total RNA extraction. The RNA was analyzed with Affymetrix RaGene-2_0-st.
