Abstract
    Adenine, which is common and essential to creatures, is widely used in clinical field. However, abundance of adenine is harmful to the living body. So far the male animals have been used for the research on adenine influence. In male rats, feeding of adenine-rich dietinduces renal failure. Because of very few studies of adenine influence to female animals,we investigated the influence of adenine treatment between male and female rats and discussed the sex difference on adenine treatment.Young male and female rats were administrated each adjusted adenine (6,50and 100mg/mL)for 8weeks (3times/week).In male rats,the renal failure was induced by 100mg/mL adenine treatment and renal dysfunction was induced by 50mg/mL adenine treatment.In female rats,however renal dysfunction was induced by 100mg/mL group only, and that was som ewhat different com pared to that in male rats. Serum testosterone level and BMD in male rats were decreased by adenine treatment with or without renal dysfunction. On the contrary, serum 17-beta estradiol level and BMD in female rats were not affected by adenine treatment at all regardless of renal dysfunction.As abovem entioned,this study could shed light on adenine effect on bone metabolism through sex hormone synthesis. A denine is commonly contained in clinical medicines and general food.Abundant ingestion of nucleic acid including adenine may affect the internal secretion function.
