Abstract:
We have established adriamycin(ADR) nephropathy model, the expression of cyclophilin(CyP)mRNA was measured with RT PCR, and its relationship with the levels of total protein, albumin, cholesterol, 24 hour urine protein, BUN, and creatinine were determined.After four weeks,the levels of urine protein in ADR nephropathy animals were higher than 100mg/24h, whereas the levels in the control animals were lower than 6mg/24h. It was showed that the expression of CyP gene of kidney tissue in ADR nephropathy rats was significantly higher than that of the control animals. Meanwhile, it was found that there was negative correlation was found between the expression of Cyp gene and the levels of total protein and albumin,but positive correlation between the expression of CyP gene and the levels of 24 hour urine protein and cholesterol,and the expression of CyP gene had no correlation with the levels of BUN and creatinine. Our results suggested that the high levels of Cyp mRNA expression might contribute to renel tissue damage in ADR nephropathy,and it might reflect the degree of severity and prognosis in ADR nephropathy.
