Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of oxidative stress related factors,such as,superoxide dismutase (SOD),heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1),malondialdehyde (MDA) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) and explore the possible role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of IMN.Methods Serum,urine and renal tissue of 40 patients with IMN,20 patients with secondary membranous nephropathy (SMN),and 20 patients with minimal change nephropathy (MCD) were collected from the nephrology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.All of them were diagnosed by renal biopsy from January 2016 to June 2016.Serum,urine and renal tissue of 20 healthy persons were collected as the normal control (NC).The expressions of SOD,HO-1,and 8-OHdG in renal tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry.The levels of SOD,HO-1,MDA and 8-OHdG in serum and urine specimens were detected by ELISA.The relationship between oxidative stress related factors and proteinuria in IMN was investigated as well.Results The expressions of SOD,HO-1 and 8-OHdG were significantly higher than those in MCD group and NC group in renal tissue;the expression of SOD in IMN group was significantly higher than that in MCD group and NC group in serum (all P < 0.01).The expressions of HO-1,MDA and 8-OHdG in the serum and urine of the IMN group were significantly higher than those of the MCD group and the NC group (all P < 0.05).There was a significant positive correlation between the urine expression of 8-OHdG and MDA and proteinuria in the IMN group.Conclusions Oxidative stress-related factors in IMN patients are elevated,which is closely related to clinical manifestations.In that sense,it is confirmed that oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of IMN.
