Abstract:
Objective To explore the anti-inflammatory action of Heshi Yangshen Recipe on rat model of nephrotic syndrome induced by adriamycin. Methods Rat model of nephrotic syndrome was established by tail venous injection of one-dose of adriamycin. SD rats were divided into normal group(N = 10),model group(N =11), positive control group (N = 12), and high-, middle- , low-dose Chinese medicine groups (N = 12, respectively). Two weeks after modeling,rats in the normal group and model group were given gastric gavage of same volume of normal saline, rats in positive control group were given gastric gavage of benazepril aqueous solution at a dose of 10 mg·kg-1·d-1 in the former period of 15 days and at 10 mg·kg-1·d-1 in the later period of 20 days, and rats in high-,middle- ,low-dose groups were given gastric gavage of Heshi Yangshen Recipe at a dosage of 33.26, 16.63, 8.32 g·kg-1·d-1 respectively, for 30 continuous groups. During the treatment period, the general situation of rats was observed. After the completion of medication, the levels of 24-hour urinary protein, urine total proteins, urine creatinine were measured by biochemical analyzer, serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP) level was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),and the expression levels of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1)and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1)in rat renal tissue of various groups were determined by immunohistochemistry. Results The increase of body mass in all of the modeled rats was significantly slowed down (P < 0.01 as compared with the normal group). Compared with the normal group, the levels of 24-hour urinary protein, serum hs-CRP, and the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in rat renal tissue were increased in the model group (P < 0.05 or P <0.01). Compared with the model group, the level of 24-hour urinary protein in the positive control group and high-dose Chinese medicine group was decreased (P < 0.05), and the levels of serum Hs-CRP, and the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in rat renal tissue of the positive control group and high-,middle-,low-dose Chinese medicine groups were decreased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Conclusion Heshi Yangshen Recipe exerts certain anti-inflammatory action, and its mechanism may be related with the decrease of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression. High dosage of Heshi Yangshen Recipe has the strongest therapeutic effect.
