According to a study from Nagoya, Japan, "Crystal formation in mice could not be induced either by the administration of ethylene glycol or by glycolate. To clarify the reasons for the difference among these oxalate precursors in mice, we studied renal tubular epithelial injury by immunohistochemical staining of oxidative stress and observing microstructures."

"Daily intra-abdominal injection of saline solution [10 ml/(kg day)], ethylene glycol[(48.3 mmol/(kg day)], glycolate [1.31 mmol/(kg day)], and glyoxylate [1.35 mmol/(kg day)] into C57BL/6 male mice (8 weeks) was performed for 7 days. Immunohistochemical staining of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and ...
