For evaluation of technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc-DMSA) renal uptake as an absolute renal function, 99mTc-DMSA uptake was compared with endogenous creatinine clearance (Ccr) in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity. Gentamicin (40 mg/kg/day) was given subcutaneously to male Wistar rats for periods of 3, 6, 9 and 12 days. On the next day, the renography was performed 2 hours following intravenous injection of 99mTc-DMSA and Ccr was measured. On the 7th day, 99mTc-DMSA uptake was significantly lower in the treated rats than that in control (32.27 +/- 0.92 vs 39.84 +/- 2.24%; p less than 0.01), but Ccr did not change (0.37 +/- 0.02 vs 0.34 +/- 0.05 ml/min/100 g; NS). On the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 8th day after single subcutaneous injection of 80 mg of gentamicin, 99mTc-DMSA uptake was measured and the histological examination was done. On the 4th day, 99mTc-DMSA uptake was significantly lower than that on the 1st day (32.32 +/- 3.00 vs 38.91 +/- 1.95%; p less than 0.01) and microscopic examinations revealed that eosinophilic granular degenerations were evident in the renal cortex. The present study suggests that 99mTc-DMSA uptake reduces earlier than Ccr in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity and 99mTc-DMSA uptake is a reliable indicator in the evaluation of a renal function in drug-induced nephrotoxicity.
