The acute and chronic renal effects of the intravenous injection of meglumine diatrizoate sodium 76% (CM), 5 mL/kg body weight were studied in diabetic (DM) and age-matched normal (C) female Sprague-Dawley rats. In acute studies, the effect of anesthesia was assessed for 2 hours. Although anesthesia decreased 14C-inulin clearance (Cin) in both DM and C rats (P less than .001 vs. conscious values), there was no impairment of Cin in either group after administration of CM. In chronic studies, creatinine clearance (Ccr) was followed for 3-4 days after CM administration. Four protocols to assess risk factors in DM and C were used: adult rats with normal hydration (2A); old dehydrated rats with DM of long duration (2B); rats with prior decreased Ccr (remnant kidney, 2C); and DM rats treated with insulin (2D). No clear-cut nephrotoxicity was apparent in these studies, except that proteinuria increased with CM in Study 2C. A greater severity of renal dysfunction, renal disease, or the association of multiple risk factors may be necessary to induce CM-related nephrotoxicity in the experimental animal. The rat, diabetic or not, may have an inherent resistance to CM-induced renal injury.
