Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects ofShipi-Gushen-Huayu Recipe on the expressions of collagen I, laminin(LN), transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)andα-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)in adriamycin-induced renal fibrosis in rats.Methods A total of male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups, with 10 rats in each group: a normal group, a model group, a treatment group and a fosinopril sodium group. Except the rats in the normal group, the rest rats were subjected to renal fibrosisvia tail intravenous injection of adriamycin(4 mg/kg). Two weeks after modeling, the rats in the rreatment group and in the fosinopril sodium group were intragastrically administrated daily withShipi-Gushen-Huayu Recipe extract(43 g/kg)and fosinopril solution(2 mg/kg), respectively,both in the normal group and model group with saline. After 30 days, 24-hours urine protein were determined, and the expressions of collagen I, LN, TGF-β1 andα-SMA in kidney tissue were detected with immunohistochemistry staining.Results The expressions of collagen I(24.64±0.67vs. 32.86±0.88), LN(18.71±0.72vs. 28.35±0.87), TGF-β1(14.71±0.68vs. 18.35±0.96)andα-SMA(17.64±0.74vs. 25.86±0.85)in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the model group(allP<0.01). The expressions of collagen I, LN, TGF-β1 andα-SMA in the fosinopril sodium group were 27.33±0.73, 20.44±0.81, 15.44±0.85 and 19.33±0.77, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the expressions of collagen I, LN, TGF-β1 andα-SMA in the treatment group and in the fosinopril sodium group.ConclusionShipi-Gushen-Huayu Recipe can significantly down regulate the expressions of collagen I, LN, TGF-β1 andα-SMA in adriamycin-induced renal fibrosis in rats.
