Effect of Ammonium Load on Erythrocytes of Hemodialysis Patients

The aim of the study was to estimate the status of band 3 protein in erythrocytes of patients with end-stage renal failure during the hemodialysis. The objects of the study were erythrocytes of patients with chronic kidney disease 5 stage with syndrome of end-stage renal failure during the hemodialysis. The first group included patients with end-stage renal failure in the outcome of chronic pyelonephritis (27 persons), the second - patients with end-stage renal failure, developed on a background of chronic glomerulonephritis (20 persons). The status of the band 3 protein was detected following the protocol of Mindukshev under the incubation of erythrocytes with ammonium ions. The alteration of the activity of band 3 proteins depended on type of primary kidney pathology (Pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis).
