Objective:
To explore curative machanism of Shenle capsule on the 5/6 nephrectomy rats.
Method:
Fibrin plate method was applied to examine activity of urinary plasminogen activator(PA). Semi-quantitative analysis was used to observe stained intensity and area of tissue-type plasminogen activator, urokinas-type plasminogen activator/ plasminogen activator inhibitor(tPA, uPA/PAI-1)in remnant renal tissue. Northern blot was employed to analyze the expression of transforming growth factor (TGF-beta) mRNA.
Result:
In model control group, the urinary PA activity and protein expression of tPA, uPA were down-regulated, but protein expression of PAI-1, TGF-beta mRNA was up-regulated in remnant renal tissue. In each treated group, the urinary PA activity and protein expression of tPA/uPA were enhanced,but the protein expression of PAI-1, TGF-beta mRNA decreased simultaneously.
Conclusion:
Shenle capsule can delay glomerulosclersis and tubulointerstitial fibrotic lesions of remnant kidney by improving the activity of urinary PA and modulating the expression of tPA, uPA/PAI-1 and TGF-beta mRNA.
