Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of oxidative stress on the expressions of transforming growth factor-?1(TGF-?1) and transforming growth factor-? receptor Ⅰ(TGF-?RⅠ) in rat unilateral ureteral obstruction(UUO) models.Methods Thirfty Wistar rats were randomly assigned into three groups:SOR group(sham-operated group,n=7);UUO group(operation group,n=11);US group(spironolactone 50 mg?kg-1?d-1 by daily gastric gavage after UUO,n=12).All the rats were killed 14 d after surgery.Renal fibrosis was assessed by the determination of tissue hydroxyproline(HYP) content.Malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD) as well as aldosterone(ALD) content were measured.Histological changes were observed by HE and Masson staining.Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expressions of TGF-?1 and TGF-?RⅠ.Western blotting was used the determine the expression of TGF?RⅠ protein.Results Compared with sham group,the ALD contents in plasma and kidney tissues in UUO group significantly increased(P
