Abstract:
Objective To explore the improvement effect of ultrasound microbubble blasting assisted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSC)transplantation on diabetic nephropathy(DN)in terms of inflammatory response and renal function via the Toll like receptor 4(TLR-4)/nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)signaling pathway,as well as its specific mechanism.Methods A rat DN model was estab-lished and randomly grouped into the following:Model group,BMSC group,BMSC+microbubble group,and BMSC+microbubble+TLR-4/NF-κB pathway activator lipopolysaccharide(LPS)group,with 12 rats in each group.Additionally,12 rats were selected as the control(CK)group.Biochemical and biuret analysis,HE and Masson staining,ELISA,and Western blotting testing were employed to detect fasting blood glucose(FBG),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),serum creatinine(sCr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),24-hour urinary total protein(24 h-UTP),pathological changes in renal tissue,fibrosis status,and the expression of interleukin-1 β(IL-1β),tumor necrosis factorα(TNF-α),TLR-4,and NF-κB proteins of rats in each group.Results The renal tissue in the CK group was structurally normal with few collagen fibers.The Model group showed obvious renal tissue lesions and severe collagen fiber deposition;the lesions in the BMSC group and BMSC+microvesicle group were alleviated in turn,while the lesions were aggravated after the addition of LPS compared with the BMSC+microvesicle group.Compared with the CK group,the levels of FBG,TC,TG,sCr,BUN,24 h-UTP,as well as the expression of IL-1β,TNF-α,TLR-4,and NF-κB proteins were increased in the Model group(P＜0.05).Compared with the Model group,the above-men-tioned indices and protein expression were decreased in the BMSC group(P＜0.05).Compared with the BMSC group,the above-men-tioned indices and protein expression were further decreased in the BMSC+microvesicle group(P＜0.05).Compared with the BMSC+mi-crovesicle group,the above-mentioned indices and protein expression were increased in the BMSC+microvesicle+LPS group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The improvement effect of ultrasound microbubble blasting-assisted BMSC transplantation on DN rats may be related to the inhibition of the TLR-4/NF-κB signaling pathway.
