alpha-Keto[U-14C]isovalerate, alpha-keto[U-14C]isocaproate and alpha-keto[U-14C]beta-methylvalerate are metabolized in the perfused kidney. Labelled 3-hydroxyisobutyrate, 3-hydroxyisovalerate, 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyrate, branched-chain amino acids, branched-chain acylcarnitines and lactate are formed. Hydroxy acids and acylcarnitines are excreted preferentially in the urine, whereas the branched-chain amino acids are preferentially excreted in the perfusate. There is no accumulation of (U-14C)-labelled alpha-keto acids or labelled metabolites in the kidney during perfusion. (-)-Carnitine accumulates rapidly in the kidney when it is added to the perfusate. A high kidney carnitine level enhances the excretion of carnitine esters in the urine.
α-酮[U-¹⁴C]异戊酸、α-酮[U-¹⁴C]异己酸和α-酮[U-¹⁴C]β-甲基戊酸在灌注肾中代谢。形成了标记的3-羟基异丁酸、3-羟基异戊酸、2-甲基-3-羟基丁酸、支链氨基酸、支链酰基肉碱和乳酸。羟基酸和酰基肉碱优先经尿液排泄,而支链氨基酸优先经灌注液排泄。灌注过程中,肾内不会积累(U-¹⁴C)标记的α-酮酸或标记代谢物。当(-)-肉碱添加到灌注液中时,它会在肾内迅速积累。高肾肉碱水平会增强肉碱酯经尿液的排泄。
