Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of Fushenjiangxianning on renal protein kinase C(PKC),renal vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),renal platelet-derived growth factor ?(PDGF-?),and renal protection in diabetic nephropathy(DN) rats.Methods The diabetic SD rats induced by STZ were divided into four groups: diabetic control group,Fushenjiangxianning group,Irbesartan group, and Fushenjiagxianning combined with Irbesartan group,and the normal control group as well.After the experimental rats in every group were respectively treated for 12 weeks by above intervention methods,the relative kidney weight,blood sugar,urea nitrogen(Bun),serum creatinine(Scr),and urinary albumin excretion rate(UAER) were detected by routine analysis methods,and PKC and VEGF in renal tissue were detected by immunohistochemical techniques,and PDGF-? in renal tissue was detected by Western blotting,and ultramicrostructure of kidney was observed by transmission electron microscope.ResultsThe expression of renal cortex PKC and VEGF was increased in diabetic rats.The ultramicrostructure of kidney was noticeably changed,and the blood sugar,UAER,BUN,Scr,relative kidney weight,and PDGF-? were significantly increased in diabetic rats.While the above indexes in Fushenjiangxianning group,Irbesartan group,and Fushenjiangxianning combined with Irbesartan group were significantly lower than those in diabetic control group(P
