Abstract:
Objective:To observe the preventive effect of alkaline drinking water on hyperuricemia in mice.
Methods:Sixty male SPF Kunming mice were randomly divided into six groups: pH 7.3, pH 8.0, pH 9.3 intervention groups, in which the mice were given water with pH values of 7.3±0.5, 8.0±0.5 and 9.3±0.6, respectively; the control group, model group and positive drug group ( with 2 g/L allopurinol ) were given double distilled water. Except for the control group, the mice in each group were given yeast by gavage (1.5 g/mL) for 13 days. On the 14th day, the mice were injected with 300 mg/kg potassium oxyzinate by intraperitoneal injection, and then fasted for 1 day. On the 16th day, serum uric acid, creatinine and urea nitrogen were detected, and renal tissues were stained to observe the morphology.The expression levels of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin ( NGAL ), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1( TIMP1 ), organic anion transporter 1 ( OAT1 ) and urate transporter 1 ( URAL-1 ) in renal tissues were determined bywestern blotting. The mRNA expression levels of URAL-1 and OAT1 were detected by real-time fluorescent quantita⁃tive polymerase chain reaction.
Results:The level of serum uric acid was higher in the model group than in the control group and in the pH 9.3 intervention group (both P<0.05). The number and area of renal tubular lesions were less in the pH 9.3 intervention group than in the model group (all P<0.05). The relative expression levels of NGAL and
URAT-1 proteins were lower in the pH 9.3 intervention group than in the model group, and the relative expression level of OAT1 protein was higher in the pH 9.3 intervention group than in the model group ( all P<0.05). The relativeexpression level of URAT-1 mRNA was lower in the pH 9.3 intervention group than in the model group, and the rela⁃tive expression level of OAT1 mRNA was higher in the pH 9.3 intervention group than in the model group ( all P<0.05 ).
Conclusion:Alkaline drinking water with pH value of 9.3±0.6 can effectively prevent hyperuricemia and acute
kidney injury in mice.
