Although the addition of chloride groups to the phenyl ring of N-phenylsuccinimide (NPS) is known to enhance the nephrotoxic potential of NPS, the mechanism of this enhancement is unknown. One chlorinated NPS derivative, N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)succinimide (NDPS), is a potent nephrotoxicant which induces marked proximal tubular necrosis at i.p. doses of 0.4 mmol/kg or greater. The purpose of this study was to compare the nephrotoxic potential of 2-hydroxy-N-phenylsuccinimide (HNPS) and N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-2-hydroxysuccinimide (NDHS), an oxidative and nephrotoxicant metabolite of NDPS, to determine the importance of the chloride groups for the nephrotoxic potential of NDHS. Male Fischer 344 rats (4/group) were administered a single i.p. injection of HNPS (1.0 or 1.5 mmol/kg), NDHS (0.1 mmol/kg) or vehicle (25% dimethyl sulfoxide in sesame oil), and renal function measured at 24 and 48 h. HNPS was a nonnephrotoxicant at both doses tested, while NDHS induced marked nephrotoxicity characterized by diuresis, increased proteinuria, glucosuria, elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN) concentration a kidney weight, decreased organic ion accumulation by renal cortical slices and proximal tubular necrosis. In vitro, HNPS reduced p-aminohippurate (PAH) and tetraethylammonium (TEA) accumulation beginning at HNPS bath concentrations of 0.05 and 0.5 ?M, respectively. The results of this study indicate that although HNPS has direct effects on renal function in vitro, HNPS is not a nephrotoxicant in vivo at doses up to 15 times the minimal nephrotoxicant dose of NDHS. Therefore, the chloro groups present on NDHS play an essential role in the nephrotoxic potential NDHS and contribute to aspects of the nephrotoxic mechanism of NDPS beyond NDPS oxidation to form NDHS.
