| In Vivo | Zopolrestat (2.5 mg/kg-50 mg/kg; p.o.; once-a-day for 5 days) and left untreated for 7 days) prevents accumulation of sorbitol in the kidney cortex of diabetic rats and normalize elevated renal blood flow in galactosemic rats[1]. Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (made diabetic by iv injection of streptozotocin)[1]. Dosage: 2.5 mg/kg-50 mg/kg Administration: P.o.; once-a-day for 5 days Result: Its ED50s in reversing already elevated sorbitol accumulation in rat sciatic nerve, retina, and lens in a chronic test were 1.9, 17.6, and 18.4 mg/kg, respectively. |
