Adenine-Induced Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Model

Creative Bioarray offers in vivo pharmacology studies using a well-established animal model for adenine-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD). This model has been validated and is valuable for evaluating the potential renal protection of test compounds quickly. Our team of scientists will collaborate with you to meet your specific needs, assisting with the initial study design, as well as the final reporting and analysis of your data.

CKD is a progressive condition that unfortunately has no cure and is associated with high levels of morbidity and mortality. The main causes of CKD include diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and chronic inflammation. In CKD, there is a buildup of fibrosis, which is a repair process triggered by various stimuli and factors, leading to excessive accumulation of connective tissue components. Currently, there is no universally accepted systematic approach for screening and treating CKD, highlighting the importance of understanding the underlying pathological mechanisms. Animal models of CKD have played a crucial role in advancing our knowledge of kidney disease development and have provided valuable platforms for testing interventions and assessing the effectiveness of compounds or medications.

Our Adenine-Induced Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Model

  • Available Animal

Rat

  • Modeling Method

After acclimation, the rats are randomized into a model group and a control group. The model group receives a daily oral gavage of adenine for 21 days, while the control group receives a daily oral gavage of saline for the same duration.

  • Endpoints
  • Blood biochemistry analysis: phosphate, urea, creatinine
  • Histology analysis
  • Blood pressure
  • qPCR or Western blot
  • Other customized endpoints
