Objective To explore the effects of renal artery calcification on the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN), the activation and its role of bone morphogenetic protein 2(BMP2) signal pathway in renal artery of rats. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into control group(CON group), DN group and DN with vascular calcification group (DN+VDN group). Rats of group DN and DN+VDN were fed with high sugar and fat diet and injected with streptozocin (STZ) into abdominal cavity to induce diabetes. After diabetic models were successfully made, rats of group DN+VDN were treated by vitamin D3 plus nicotine. The rats were sacrificed at 8th, 12th and 16th week respectively and the levels of renal function, blood glucose and 24 h urinary protein (24-h Upro) were measured. The pathologic changes to the renal artery were observed by von-Kossa staining and the calcium content was detected by calcium assay kit. The pathologic changes to the kidney were observed by HE. Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect the protein expression of BMP2/Smad1/Runx2/Osterix signal pathway in the renal artery and real-time PCR were applied to detect the mRNA expression levels of BMP2 and Runx2. Results The calcium content and the deposition of black granules in DN group were significantly higher than those in group CON and lower than DN+VDN group at each time point (P<0.05). The renal function indices in group DN and group DN+VDN were gradually increased in 8th,12th and 16th weeks, and were higher than those in group CON (P<0.05). Compared with that in DN group, although the level of BUN, Scr, Cys C and 24-h Upro in DN+VDN group rats were higher at different time point, the level of Cys C at each time point and the level of 24-h Upro in the 16th week showed significant differences (P<0.05). The pathological damages of the kidney in group DN and DN+VDN showed a continual worsening trend and the pathological changes of the kidney in group DN+VDN were more serious than those in group DN. Furthermore, the levels of BMP2/Smad1/Runx2/Osterix signal protein and BMP2, Runx2 mRNA in DN rats were higher than those in CON group, lower than DN+VDN group at each time point (P<0.05). Correlation analysis demonstrated that calcium content was positively correlated with serum BUN, Scr, Cys C, 24-h Upro and the expression of BMP2, Runx2 mRNA (r=0.835, 0.705, 0.829, 0.897, 0.641, 0.683, P<0.01, respectively). Conclusion Renal artery calcification may participate in and promote the progression of DN, and the BMP2 signal pathway may be an important regulating factor in DN with renal artery calcification. 相似文献

Sevelamer hydrochloride attenuates kidney and cardiovascular calcifications in long-term experimental uremia 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Cozzolino M Staniforth ME Liapis H Finch J Burke SK Dusso AS Slatopolsky E 《Kidney international》2003,64(5):1653-1661
BACKGROUND: In chronic renal failure (CRF), hyperphosphatemia and an elevated calcium-phosphate product are associated with vascular calcification and increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Previous data have demonstrated that 3-month treatment of uremic rats with sevelamer was associated with less nephrocalcinosis compared to calcium carbonate (CaCO3), despite similar control of serum phosphorus, calcium-phosphorus product (Ca x P product), and secondary hyperparathyroidism. There was no evidence of aortic calcification after 3 months of uremia (J Am Soc Nephrol 13:2299-2308, 2002). The present studies explore the influence of sevelamer and CaCO3 on cardiovascular and kidney calcifications in long-term experimental uremia over 6 months. METHODS: Normal and 5/6 nephrectomized rats (U) were fed a high phosphorus (HP) diet for 6 months. Two phosphate binders, CaCO3 and sevelamer, were administered and their influence on hyperphosphatemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, kidney/myocardial/aortic calcification, and renal function was compared. RESULTS: All uremic rats began the study with the same degree of renal failure. Sevelamer was as effective as CaCO3 in reducing serum phosphorus, Ca x P product, and attenuating secondary hyperparathyroidism. Despite similar serum cholesterol levels, rats in the U-HP + sevelamer group had markedly lower calcium deposition in the myocardium and aorta (myocardium, 72 +/- 4 microg/g wet tissue; aorta, 736 +/- 156 microg/g wet tissue) compared to rats in either the U-HP + CaCO3 group (myocardium, 179 +/- 48, P < 0.05; aorta, 1308 +/- 343, P < 0.05) or the U-HP group (myocardium, 98 +/- 10, NS; aorta, 2150 +/- 447, P < 0.05). Dual immunohistochemical analysis for calcium and endothelial cell markers demonstrated that myocardial calcium deposition was intravascular within capillaries. Furthermore, calcium deposition in the kidney of uremic rats treated with sevelamer (582 +/- 111 microg/g wet tissue) was lower than that found in uremic rats treated with CaCO3 (1196 +/- 180 microg/g wet tissue). Sevelamer-treated rats had less deterioration in renal function with an associated lower serum creatinine, higher creatinine clearance, and less proteinuria. There was no difference in overall mortality between the three experimental groups. CONCLUSION: In long-term experimental CRF, in addition to controlling serum phosphorus and secondary hyperparathyroidism as efficiently as CaCO3, treatment with the phosphate-binder sevelamer attenuates vascular and kidney calcification. 相似文献

Aminoguanidine ameliorates overexpression of prosclerotic growth factors and collagen deposition in experimental diabetic nephropathy 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

Profibrotic cytokines and the formation of advanced-glycation end products (AGE) have both been implicated in the pathogenesis of glomerulosclerosis in diabetic kidney disease. However, tubulointerstitial pathology is also an important determinant of progressive renal dysfunction in diabetic nephropathy. This study sought to investigate the expression of profibrotic growth factors and matrix deposition in the glomerulus and the tubulointerstitium and to examine the effect of blocking AGE formation in experimental diabetic nephropathy. Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into control and diabetic groups. Diabetes was induced in 24 rats by streptozotocin. Twelve diabetic rats were further randomized to receive the inhibitor of AGE formation, aminoguanidine (1 g/l drinking water). At 6 mo, experimental diabetes was associated with a three-fold increase in expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 (P < 0.01 versus control) and five-fold increase in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-B gene expression (P < 0.01 versus control) in the tubulointerstitium. In situ hybridization demonstrated a diffuse increase in both TGF-beta1 and PDGF-B mRNA in renal tubules. Aminoguanidine attenuated not only the overexpression of TGF-beta1 and PDGF-B but also reduced type IV collagen deposition in diabetic rats (P < 0.05). TGF-beta1 and PDGF mRNA within glomeruli were also similarly increased with diabetes and attenuated with aminoguanidine. The observed beneficial effects of aminoguanidine on the tubulointerstitium in experimental diabetes suggest that AGE-mediated expression of profibrotic cytokines may contribute to tubulointerstitial injury and the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. 相似文献

Macrophages in mouse type 2 diabetic nephropathy: correlation with diabetic state and progressive renal injury 总被引:36,自引:0,他引:36
BACKGROUND: Macrophage-mediated renal injury has been implicated in progressive forms of glomerulonephritis; however, a role for macrophages in type 2 diabetic nephropathy, the major cause of end-stage renal failure, has not been established. Therefore, we examined whether macrophages may promote the progression of type 2 diabetic nephropathy in db/db mice. METHODS: The incidence of renal injury was examined in db/db mice with varying blood sugar and lipid levels at 8 months of age. The association of renal injury with the accumulation of kidney macrophages was analyzed in normal db/+ and diabetic db/db mice at 2, 4, 6, and 8 months of age. RESULTS: In db/db mice, albuminuria and increased plasma creatinine correlated with elevated blood glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels but not with obesity or hyperlipidemia. Progressive diabetic nephropathy in db/db mice was associated with increased kidney macrophages. Macrophage accumulation and macrophage activation in db/db mice correlated with hyperglycemia, HbA1c levels, albuminuria, elevated plasma creatinine, glomerular and tubular damage, renal fibrosis, and kidney expression of macrophage chemokines [monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), osteopontin, migration inhibitory factor (MIF), monocyte-colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF)]. The accrual and activation of glomerular macrophages also correlated with increased glomerular IgG and C3 deposition, which was itself dependent on hyperglycemia. CONCLUSION: Kidney macrophage accumulation is associated with the progression of type 2 diabetic nephropathy in db/db mice. Macrophage accumulation and activation in diabetic db/db kidneys is associated with prolonged hyperglycemia, glomerular immune complex deposition, and increased kidney chemokine production, and raises the possibility of specific therapies for targeting macrophage-mediated injury in diabetic nephropathy. 相似文献
