Abstract:
Objective:To study the change of Neuropeptide Y (NPY) plasma and its clinical si gnificance and the effects of Astragalus on NPY in plasma in chronic renal fail ure patients.Methods:Radioimmunoassay was used to measure plasma concentration of NPY.Results:①The plasma concentration of NPY in CRF patients was significantly high er than tha t in healthy group,and the plasma concentration of NPY in uremia patients was si gnificantly higher than that in nitremia patients.②The plasma concentration of NPY was positively correlated with the serum value of CRE and the level of MAP in CRF patients.③After Astraglus treatment for 3 weeks,the level of NPY in plas ma was significantly decreased in experiment group,but in control group,there wa s no significant change.Conclusion:The disturbance in synthesis,secretion or metabolism of NPY occurred in CRF patients,which significantly correlates with the occurrence and development of CRF.Astraglus can influence the NPY in plasma in CRF patients,so as to improve the renal function.
