The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of 1Â h, bilateral, warm ischemia-reperfusion kidney injury as a model of acute kidney injury in the cat. Four adult healthy cats underwent 60Â min of bilateral, in vivo renal warm ischemia; three cats were sham operated controls. Kidney function was evaluated with creatinine and BUN concentration, urine protein: creatinine, and glomerular filtration rate. Post-reperfusion endothelin and renin was measured by ELISA and RT-qPCR. Blood pressure (BP), platelet count, and platelet aggregation were monitored. Renal biopsy specimens were evaluated histopathologically. There was significant reduction in renal function characterized by severe azotemia and proximal tubular brush border loss. Changes in renin or endothelin gene expression or serum concentration were not detected. No changes were detected in BP. Platelet count and hematocrit decreased markedly after ischemia and reperfusion. Sixty minutes bilateral renal ischemia is an effective model for acute renal injury.
