Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of Turkish galls extract (TGE) on the expression of IgA in serum,urine and renal tissue of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) model rats.METHODS Fifty healthy male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal control group,IgAN model group,and TGE 75,150 and 300 mg· kg-1 groups,10 rats per group.The model of IgAN rats was established with bovine serum albumin (BSA)+lipopolysaccharide (LPS)+carbon tetrachlorid (CCl4)for 12 weeks.From the 13th week,TGE was ig administrated once a day for 4 weeks.At the end of the 12th and 16th weeks,24 h urine protein was measured by BCA method.At the end of the 16th week,serum and urinary IgA levels were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),serum creatinine(SCR) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were detected by an automatic biochemical analyzer,and the renal pathological changes were evaluated with an Oxford classification scoring system.The deposition of IgA immune complex in the kidney was observed by immunofluorescence assay.RESULTS At the end of 12th week,24 h urine protein increased in all IgAN groups (P＜0.05),compared with normal control group.At the end of 16th week,24 h urine protein,IgA content in serum and urine,SCr and BUN content in serum,score in Oxford classification of renal tissue and deposition of IgA immune complex in the kidney in IgAN model group were all higher than in normal control group (P＜0.05).Compared with IgAN model group,24 h urine protein,IgA content in serum and urine and SCr content in serum were decreased in all TGE groups (P＜0.05),and BUN content in serum and deposition of IgA immune complex in the kidney decreased in TGE 150 and 300 mg·kg-1 groups (P＜0.05).The score in Oxford classification of renal tissue was decreased in TGE 300 mg· kg-1 group only.CONCLUSION TGE has curative effect on IgAN model rats by reducing serum and urinary IgA and decreasing IgA immune complex deposition.
