Abstract:
Objective To observe the change endoplasmic reticulum stress in renal injury of fluorosis rats,and explore the effect of endoplasmic reticulum stree in the mechanism of renal injury of fluorosis.Methods 48 Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups:control,fluoride-treated,low calcium,and low calcium plus fluoride-treated.The rats in fluoride-treated and low calcium plus fluoride-treated groups were treated with sodium fluoride (NaF,221 mg?L-1) through drinking water for 3 months.The pathological slice of rat kidney was made and the morphological changes were observed under optical microscope.The transcription levels of Grp78,Xbp1,CHOP and PDI in the kidney tissues were determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Edema and vacuolar degeneration of the proximal tubule and distal tubule cells in the kidney tissues in fluoride-treated group were observed;and cell edema,vacuolar degeneration,scattered necrosis,minor regeneration repair and interstitial hyperemia in the kidney tissues in low calcium plus fluoride-treated group were found.The mRNA expressions of Xbp1 in the kidney tissues in fluoride-treated and low calcium plus fluoride-treated groups were markedly higher than that in the responding control groups(P
