Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To study improvement effects of Panax notoginsenoside(PNS) on cisplatin-induced renal injury model rats and its effects on related factors. METHODS: Totally 72 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group, model group, positive drug group and PNS low-dose, medium-dose, high-dose groups, with 12 rats in each group. Except for blank group, other groups were given cisplatin via tail vein (3 mg/kg×4 times) to establish renal injury model. Since the first day after the first injection of cisplatin, positive group was given anfostine solution intraperitoneally (1.0 mg/kg); PNS groups were given PNS solution intraperitoneally (15.63, 31.35, 62.70 mg/kg); blank group and model groups were given constant volume of normal saline 0.2 mL, for consecutive 60 d. The 24 h urine of rats was collected; the contents of β-N-acetylaminoglycosidase(NAG) and 24 h urine protein (Upro/24 h) were detected; the serum contents of Scr and BUN were detected. mRNA and protein expression of CTGF, TGF-β1, Col-1, TIMP-1 and PAI-1 in renal tissue were determined by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry respectively. RESULTS: Compared with blank group, the contents of NAG and Upro/24 h in urine, serum contents of Scr and BUN, mRNA and protein expression levels of CTGF, TGF-β1, Col-1, TIMP-1 and PAI-1 in renal tissue were increased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with model group, the contents of above urine and serum biochemical indicators were decreased significantly in PNS groups; mRNA expression of CTGF and TGF-β1 and protein expression of CTGF, TGF-β1, Col-1 and TIMP-1 in renal tissue of rats in PNS groups, mRNA expression of Col-1 in PNS high-dose group, and mRNA expression of TIMP-1 and protein expression of PAI-1 in PNS medium-dose and high-dose groups were decreased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with positive group, the contents of NAG and Upro/24 h in urine were decreased significantly in PNS medium-dose and high-dose groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: PNS can effectively improve the renal function of cisplatin-induced renal injury model rats, and relieve cisplatin-induced renal fibrosis by decreasing the expression of renal fibrosis related factors as CTGF, TGF-β1, Col-1, TIMP-1 and PAI-1 in renal tissue.
