Huidouba Ameliorates Kidney Oxidative Stress Injury by Down-regulating Nox4 Expression in Rats with Diabetic Nephropathy
From a new perspective,to explore therapeutic effect of Huidouba (HDB) on alleviating kidney oxidative damage in rats with diabetic nephropathy (DN) and provide a scientific basis for developing HDB as a potential Tibetan medicine for treatment of DN.
Method
2
Rats were fed with high-fat diet (HFD) and injected with streptozocin (STZ
65 mg·kg
-1
) intraperitoneally to induce DN model
while rats in Blank group were injected with an equal volume of vehicle and fed with normal chow. The successfully modeling DN rats were randomly divided into three groups
8 rats per group
DN model group (10 mL·kg
-1
·d
-1
)
Metformin group (0.045 g·kg
-1
·d
-1
) and HDB group (0.18 g·kg
-1
·d
-1
). Monitor body weight (BW) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) weekly
and collect 24 hours urine before and after medication to examine microalbuminuria (mAlb). Calculate kidney index (KI) after sacrificing
analyze mAlb
serum creatinine (SCr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) with a fully automatic biochemical analyzer. Histopathology of kidney was observed by Masson staining. Lipid peroxidation malondialdehyde (MDA) assay kit was used to examine MDA content in kidney tissue. Nox4
as a subtype of triphosphopyridine nucleotide (NADPH) oxidase family was determined by Western blot and immunofluorescence assay of kidney tissue.
Result
2
Compared with blank group
levels of FBG
24 h mAlb
SCr
BUN and MDA in DN model group were increased (
P
<
0.01)
tissue damage was obvious and Nox4 expression in glumeruli was increased significantly (
P
<
0.01). Compared with DN model group
levels of FBG
24 h mAlb
SCr
BUN and MDA in drug administration groups were decreased (
P
<
0.01)
kidney injury was alleviated and Nox4 expression was down-regulated(
P
<
0.01).
Conclusion
2
HDB as a Yiqiyangyin Tibetan medicine
could ease oxidative stress injury of kidney and reduce proteinuria in DN rats
thus prevent the development of DN. Its mechanism is closely related to down-regulating Nox4 expression of kidney tissue in DN rats.
