Objective To investigate the expression of anionic site in adriamycin-induced nephropathy (AN) rats, and to further explore the effects of Qufengtongluo Recipe on charge barrier in glomerulus in AN rats. Methods Adriamycin nephropathy was induced by a single tail intravenous injection of adriamycin. Totally 80 rats were randomly divided into normal control group and nephropathy model group. Three weeks later, the nephropathy model was established, and 50 AN rats were randomly divided into five groups: nephropathy model group (B, n=10), Qufeng group (C, n=10), prednisone and Qufeng group (D, n=10), prednisone group (E, n=10) and benazepri group (F, n=10), and they were treated respectively. With treatment being given respectively, renal tissue samples in each group were collected at week 3 and 7, respectively. The ultrastructure and expression of anionic site were examined by electron microscope observation. Results ① After adriamycin injection, a significant increase of the 24-hour urinary protein was observed at week 3 (P<0.01). In AN rats, serum albumin was decreased (P<0.01) while serum TCH and TG were increased (P<0.01). ② In AN rats the diffuse fusion and effacement of foot processes and decrease of anionic sites in GBM were observed at week 3. ③ At week 7, the average intensity of AS dramatically increased in C and E groups (P<0.01) compared with that in nephropathy model group. Conclusion The abnormal expression of AS is the important mechanism that leads to the occurrence and development of proteinuria in AN rats. It is possible that Qufengtongluo Recipe has effects on nephrotic syndrome through altering the charge barrier in GBM in glomerulus.

Objective To investigate the expression of nephrin mRNA in adriamycin-induced nephropathy (AN) in rats, and to explore the effect of Qufengtongluo recipe on proteinuria in AN rats and on the expression of nephrin mRNA. Methods Adriamycin nephropathy was induced by a single tail intravenous injection of adriamycin. We randomly divided 140 rats into a normal control group (n=32) and a nephropathy model group (n=108). Three weeks later, 90 AN rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: a model group, a qufeng group, a qufeng and prednisone group, a prednisone group, and a benazepri group (18 rats in each group). They were treated respectively, and renal tissue samples were collected at week 0, 3, 5, and 7, respectively. The distribution and expression of nephrin mRNA were examined by indirect immunofluorescence and semi-quantity RT-PCR. Results In the AN rats, the diffuse fusion and effacement of foot processes were observed at week 3. The fluorescence intensity of nephrin and the expression of nephrin mRNA significantly increased in the qufeng group and the prednisone group compared with the model group at the week 7 (P<0.01).Conclusion Abnormal expression of nephrin is the important molecular mechanism that leads to the occurrence and development of proteinuria in AN rats. Qufengtongluo recipe has effect on nephrotic syndrome through altering the expression and distribution of nephrin in glomerulus.
