Objective: To investigate the protection mechanism of volatile oil of Magnolia biondii Pamp. (VOMBP) against diabetic nephropathy in rats by observing its effects on level of soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) in serum and expression of P-selectin in renal tissue.
Methods: Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group, untreated group, and low-, medium- and high-dose VOMBP-treated group. Diabetic nephropathy was induced in rats by intraperitoneal injection of 1% streptozotocin. Before and the 1st day, 4th, 8th and 12th week after the induction, random blood glucose (RBG) and 24-hour urinary micro-albumin were detected in different groups. At the 12th week, the rats were sacrificed to collect the blood samples and renal tissues. The contents of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) were detected and the pathological change in renal tissues was observed by light microscope; the level of sP-selectin was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the expression of P-selectin protein in renal tissues was measured by immunohistochemical method.
Results: Compared with the normal control group, RBG, 24-hour urinary micro-albumin, the contents of BUN, sP-selectin in serum and expression of P-selectin protein in renal tissue in the untreated group were significantly increased (P<0.01), the content of SCr was significantly decreased (P<0.01), and pathological change of renal tissues was also obvious. Compared with the untreated group, 24-hour urinary micro-albumin, the level of sP-selectin in serum and expression P-selectin protein in renal tissue of the three VOMBP-treated groups were all significantly decreased (P<0.01), and pathological change was lessened too. However, there were no significant differences among the three VOMBP-treated groups (P>0.05).
Conclusion: VOMBP can protect the kidney in rats with diabetic nephropathy by inhibiting the expressions of P-selectin protein in serum and in renal tissue.
