Objective: To explore intervention of Jiawei Gualou Qumai Tang(GLQM)in hepatocyte growth factor
insulin-like growth factor-1 and vascular endothelial growth factor in rats with diabetic nephropathy. Method: Except those in the normal group
all rats of diabetic nephropathy model were established by with unilateral nephrectomy and intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin(STZ) induced production. Then rats were randomly divided into five groups: the model group
and the four treated groups treated with low dose of GLQM-L
medium dose of GLQM-M
high dose of GLQM-H
positive medicine (Captopril tablets). The treatments were given via gastrogavage every day starting from the 4th week of modeling
groups treated with high
medium and low dose of GLQM were given via gastrogavage to 5.6
2.8
1.4 g·kg-1
positive drugs (Captopril tablets) group were given via gastrogavage to 1.8×10-3 g·kg-1
the normal group and model group were given 2.8 mL·kg-1 distilled water
once a day for 8 weeks. Then observed the signs of rats and the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)
insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) changes in renal tissue of rats. Result: The HGF
IGF-1 and VEGF in renal tissues of rats with model were higher than the normal group
there were significant difference among the model group and the normal group(P<0.01); the HGF in renal tissues of rats with GLQM-M and IGF-1 in renal tissues of rats with GLQM-H and GLQM-M and VEGF in renal tissues of rats with GLQM-H and HGF and IGF-1 and VEGF in renal tissues of rats with Captopril tablets were lower than the model group
there were significant difference among the treated groups and the model group(P<0.01); the HGF in renal tissues of rats with GLQM-M and VEGF in renal tissues of rats with GLQM-H were same as Captopril tablets group
there were no significant difference among them; the IGF-1 in renal tissues of rats with GLQM-H was lower than the GLQM-M
there was significant difference between two(P<0.01). Conclusion: Jiawei Gualou Qumai Tang could decrease the HGF
IGF-1 and VEGF in renal tissues of rats
improve microcirculation
increase supply of blood oxygen to renal
speed up the repair and regenerate of injury renal tissue.
