Anticoagulant-related nephropathy (ARN) may develop in patients that are on anticoagulation therapy. Rats with 5/6 nephrectomy treated with different anticoagulants showed acute kidney injury (AKI) and red blood cell (RBC) casts in the tubules similar to ARN in humans. The aim of the current study was to investigate the feasibility of inducing ARN in mice. C57BL/6 5/6 nephrectomy mice were treated with warfarin and dabigatran 3 weeks after ablative surgery for 7 days. Two doses of each anticoagulant were used. All anticoagulants resulted in serum creatinine and hematuria increase. Mortality was 63% in 5.0 mg/kg/day of warfarin but only 13% in 2.5 mg/kg/day of warfarin or in 400 mg/kg/day of dabigatran and 0% in 200 mg/kg/day of dabigatran. In spite of increasing hematuria, RBC tubular casts were not seen in mice treated with any anticoagulant. The 5/6 nephrectomy murine model in C57BL/6 mice only partially reproduced ARN in terms of increasing serum creatinine and hematuria, but there were no RBC tubular casts in the remnant kidney.
