Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of mizoribine(MZR)on renal tubular epithelial?mesenchymal transition(EMT)of mice which have been performed unilateral ureteral obstruction(UUO),and study the mechanism of its anti?fibrosis of renal interstitial. Methods A total of 24 CD1 mice were randomly divided into sham group,UUO model group and MZR treatment group,with 8 mice in each group. The day before op?eration,mice of MZR treatment group had been given MZR 10 mg/kg/d lavage,those of sham group and UUO model group had been given equal saline lavage. Fourteen days after the operation ,blood was collected and serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were measured;the obstruction kidneys were harvested for section,HE staining and Masson staining were employed to observe the changes of kidney pathological;the expression ofα?SMA and E?Cad in kidney with detected by immunohistochemical and Western blot method. Results Compared with sham group,serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen of mice in UUO model group and MZR treatment group were significantly elevated ,kidney pathological chang?es and the expression ofα?SMA in renal tissue were increased and that of E?Cad was reduced ,the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05);compared with UUO model group,mice in MZR treatment group had different degree of improvements in serum creatinine,blood urea ni?trogen and kidney pathological changes ,the expression ofα?SMA in renal tissue was inhibited and that of E?Cad was increases ,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion MZR may inhibit the development of renal tubular EMT in UUO mice ,thereby reduce the level of renal tubule interstitial fibrosis and improve renal function.
