Chronic renal failure is associated with increased tissue deposition of lanthanum after 28-day oral administration

摘要

Chronic renal failure is associated with increased tissue deposition of lanthanum after 28-day oral administration.BackgroundLanthanum (La) carbonate has recently been proposed as an alternative, calcium- and aluminum-free phosphate binder for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia of chronic renal failure (CRF). However, the extent to which CRF enhances tissue La accumulation induced by oral La overload above that observed under conditions of normal renal function remains a matter of debate. In the present study, we examined this issue in two different rat models of CRF.
