Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of diammonium glycyrrhizinate (DG) on the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 in rat' s kidney poisoned by paraquat (PQ).Methods The PQ (100 mg/kg) were administered via a gastric tube to make an animal model of acute kidney injury in rats.Then DG (50 mg/kg per 24 h) were administered immediately by intraperitoneal injection in the DG group.The ELISA assay was applied to measuring the IL-6 and IL-10 in kidneys and in blood.And the protein expressions of TLR-4, Myd88 and NF-κB P65 were examined by Immunohistochemistry.The gene expressions of TLR-4, Myd88 and NF-κB on kidneys were detected by RT-PCR.Results The levels of serum Cr, BUN , IL-6 and renal IL-6 in PQ group were significantly higher than those in NS group (F =266.014, 168.160, 63.279, 192.997, respectively, P ＜0.01).While, the levels of serum Cr, BUN , IL-6 and renal IL-6 in DG group were significantly lower than those in PQ group (F =266.014, 168.160, 63.279, 192.997, respectively, P ＜ 0.01).And the levels of serum and renal IL-10 in PQ group were higher than those in NS group (F =87.511, 79.473, respectively, P ＜ 0.01).But the levels of serum and renal IL-10 in DG group were lower than those in PQ group (F =87.511, 79.473, respectively, P ＜0.01).The results of PCR confirmed that the expressions of TLR-4 mRNA , myd88 mRNA and NF-κB mRNA in PQ group were higher than those in NS group (F =84.408, 60.683, 86.272, respectively, P ＜0.01), while, the expressions of TLR-4 mRNA , myd88 mRNA and NF-κB mRNA in DG group were lower than those in PQ group (F =84.408, 60.683, 86.272, respectively, P ＜ 0.01).The protein levels of TLR-4 , Myd88 and NF-κB P65 in PQ group were higher than those in NS group (F =79.139, 61.799,112.740, respectively, P ＜0.01).While the protein levels of TLR-4, Myd88 and NF-κB P65 in DG group were lower than those in PQ group (F =79.139, 61.799, 112.740, respectively, P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Diammonium Glycyrrhizinate can attenuate rat's acute kidney injury caused by paraquat poisoning and decrease the expressions of TLR-4, Myd88 and NF-κB.
