固肾泄浊和络方对糖尿病肾病大鼠肾脏的保护作用及对NF-κB/Wnt/β-catenin信号通路的影响
Protective effect of Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription on the kidney of diabetic kidney disease rats and its influence on NF-κB/Wnt/β-catenin pathway
摘要
Abstract
Objective It is to investigate the protective effect of Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription on the kidney of rats with diabetic kidney disease and its effect on nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB)/Wnt/β-catenin pathways.Methods Seventy-two male SD rats were taken,12 of which were randomly selected as normal group,and the remaining 60 rats were given 1%streptozotocin(STZ)solution by a single intraperitoneal injection into the left side to establish models of diabetic kidney disease.50 successfully model rats were randomly divided into model group,irbesartan group,low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups of Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription,with 10 rats in each group.The irbesartan group was ad-ministered irbesartan via gastric gavage at a dose of 0.0781 g/kg,while the low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups of Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription were administered the formula solution via gastric gavage at concentrations of 0.53 g/mL,1.06 g/mL,and 2.11 g/mL,respectively,the control group and normal group were administered normal saline via gavage,all once daily,continuously treated for 6 weeks.The general condition of the rats was observed,their body weight,random blood glucose,and 24-hour urine protein(24hUP)were measured before the first gavage and after the final gavage,the se-rum levels of creatinine(SCr)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)were measured after the final gavage;the renal tissue pa-thology was observed by HE staining and PAS staining;the mRNA and protein expressions of NF-κB,type Ⅳ collagen,Wnt4,β-catenin,matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-7,and MMP-3 in renal tissue were detected by qPCR and Western blot assays,respectively.Results Compared with the normal group,the body weight of rats in the model group was decreased(P<0.05),their random blood glucose,SCr,BUN and 24hUP were significantly increased(all P<0.05);the patholog-ical changes such as thickened basement membrane,increased mesangial matrix,infiltration of interstitial cells and renal fi-brosis were found;the mRNA and protein expressions of NF-κB,type Ⅳ collagen,Wnt4,β-catenin,MMP-7 and MMP-3 in renal tissue were increased(all P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the body weights of rats in the medium-dose and high-dose groups of Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription and irbesartan group were decreased(all P<0.05),their random blood glucose,SCr,BUN and 24hUP were significantly decreased(all P<0.05);the mesangial matrix was de-creased,the infiltration of interstitial cells and renal fibrosis were alleviated;the mRNA and protein expressions of NF-κB,type Ⅳ collagen,Wnt4,β-catenin,MMP-7 and MMP-3 in renal tissue were decreased(all P<0.05),and the improve-ments of these indicators except for the body weight,random glucose,SCr and BUN in the high-dose group of Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription were more significant than those in the other medicated groups(all P<0.05).Conclusion Gushen Xiezhuo Heluo prescription can significantly alleviate renal dysfunction and renal fibrosis,and inhibit inflammatory responses in rats with diabetic nephropathy.It may exert its nephroprotective effects via regulating the NF-κB/Wnt/β-cate-nin signaling pathway,down-regulating the expressions of MMP-7 and MMP-3,and reducing the excessive deposition of type Ⅳ collagen.关键词
