초록

Lawsone methyl ether (LME. 2-methoxy-1, 4-naphthoquinone) is a natural compound found in balsaminaceae. In this study the effect of LME on the release of renal dipeptidase (RDPase) and alkaline phosphatase (APase) known as glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored proteins was examined from the renal proximal tubules. Compared with control, LME (0.5mM) increased RDPase release (218%) and APase release (135%). The increase of RDPase release by LME showed concentration-dependent effect but the release pattern of APase did not. (omitted)
