Abstract:
Objective:To explore the protective effect of Wuzhi capsules on vancomycin-induced kidney injury in rats and investi-gate the action mechanism. Methods:Totally 24 male SD rats were randomly divided into the blank control group,the model control group and the model test group with 8 ones in each. The rats in the model control group and the model test group were intravenously in-jected vancomycin via tail veil,200 mg·kg-1per day for 10 consecutive days,while those in the blank control group were injected sa-line at the same volume. Meanwhile,the rats were orally administered Wuzhi solution(0.25 g·kg-1) in the model test group and sa-line at the same volume in the blank control group and the model control group. The levels of 24-h microalbuminuria(MALB),neutro-phil gelatinase associated lipocalin(NGAL) and kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1) in urine were determined,and those of cystatin C (Cys C),serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen(BUN) in serum and those of superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialde-hyde(MDA) and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) in renal tissues were also determined. Results:The levels of the renal index,Cys C,Scr,BUN,MALB,NGAL,KIM-1 and MDA in the model control group and the model test group were significantly higher than those in the blank control group,and those in the model control group were significantly higher than those in the model test group(P<0.05 or P<0.01). The levels of SOD and GSH-Px in the model control group and the model test group were significantly lower than those in the blank control group,and those in the model control group were significantly lower than those in the model test group(P<0.05). Conclusion:Wuzhi capsules can effectively relieve vancomycin-induced renal injury in rats probably by inhibiting the oxida-tive reaction.
