Abstract
The effects of augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) on the acute kidney injury (AKI) rats were investigated by measuring the inflammatory response associated with transcription factor nuclear factory (NF-κB) pathway. The model of AKI rats was established by occluded the renal pedicles for 60 min and then released. After that, animals were treated with ALR (100 or 200 μg/kg). All rats were killed at different time points (24, 48, 72 h). Renal function and kidney histological changes were measured. The apoptosis of tubular cells was evaluated by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling assay. Cytokines and chemokines were assessed by immunohistochemistry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The NF-κB p65 protein was analyzed by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR, respectively. Ischemia reperfusion induced tubular cells necrosis and apoptosis, and ALR can significantly reduce this damages. The productions of MCP-1, IL-1β and IL-6 were lower in the group of ALR treatment, especially in the high-dose group. The inflammatory infiltrates were lower in the rats with administration of ALR. ALR mediated the level of cytokines and chemokines through inhibited the activation of NF-κB. ALR can improv...Continue Reading
