Research on the Therapeutic Effects and Mechanisms of Arctigenin in Treating Gentamicin-induced Acute Kidney Injury in Rats
摘要
Abstract
To investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of arctigenin(ATG)on gentamicin(GM)induced acute kidney injury(AKI)in rats via activating the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)signaling pathway and inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway,36 male SD rats were selected and randomly divided into a control group(6 rats)and a model establishment group(30 rats).The model group received intraperitoneal injection of 100 mg/kg GM for 7 consecutive days to establish the AKI model.The successfully modeled rats were then randomly assigned to the model group,positive control group(5 mg/kg benazepril hydrochloride),and ATG low-,medium-,and high-dose groups(1,3,9 mg/kg ATG),with 6 rats in each group.The following parameters were measured:serum urea nitrogen(BUN)and creatinine(SCR)levels;renal tissue levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD),reduced glutathione(GSH),catalase(CAT),malondialdehyde(MDA),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and kidney injury molecule-1(KIM-1),as well as the mRNA and protein expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,and nuclear factor-kappa B p65(NF-κB p65).Compared with the model group,ATG treatment significantly reduced serum levels of BUN and SCR in rats(P<0.01).In renal tissues,it markedly upregulated the mRNA and protein expression of antioxidant indicators(SOD,CAT,GSH)and key factors of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway(Nrf2,HO-1)(P<0.05 or P<0.01),while downregulating the expression of oxidative damage product(MDA),inflammatory factors(IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α),kidney injury marker(KIM-1),as well as NF-κB p65 mRNA and protein(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Histopathological examination revealed that ATG treatment improved renal tubular epithelial cell morphology,attenuated tubular atrophy,fibrosis,and inflammatory infiltration.These results demonstrate that ATG exerts a multi-target therapeutic effect on GM-induced AKI by synergistically activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway to enhance antioxidant capacity and inhibiting the NF-κB pathway to alleviate inflammatory response,thereby providing a theoretical basis for its clinical translation.关键词
