Isolated kidney cells were prepared from rat kidneys using a recirculating perfusion system with collagenase. The preparation was rapid and provided a high yield of intact metabolically active kidney cells predominantly of tubular origin. The respiration rate was 2.7 .mu.mol O2/h per 106 cells and was not stimulated by ADP. GSH [reduced glutathione] content was 28.9 nmol/106 cells and did not decline during 2 h of incubation. Cytochrome P450 content was 0.064 nmol/106 cells. The cells were characterized for their drug metabolizing activity using paracetamol [a commonly used analgesic] as substrate. The rate of formation of the glucuronide and sulfate derivatives was linear for 2 h but slower than previously reported for rat liver cells. No glutathione conjugate was detected. Formation of both cysteine and N-acetylcysteine derivatives was observed. The rate of formation of total sulfhydryl conjugates was about 50% of that reported for liver cells when expressed on a cytochrome P450 basis. The reliability and utility of this cell preparation as a model system for the study of drug metabolism by the kidney was shown.
