摘要:

目的:探讨泼尼松联合淫羊藿苷(icariin,ICA)对激素抵抗型肾病综合征(SRNS)的治疗作用及可能的分子机制。方法:体内实验用阿霉素建立大鼠模型,将大鼠分为空白组、模型组、泼尼松组(6.3 mg·kg-1·d-1)、联合组(泼尼松6.3 mg·kg-1·d-1+淫羊藿苷50 mg·kg-1·d-1),各给药组分别予相应药物灌胃,连续6周。CBB法检测大鼠24小时尿蛋白;全自动血液生化分析仪检测大鼠白蛋白、总胆固醇、甘油三酯、肌酐、尿素氮;HE、Masson染色检测大鼠肾组织形态学变化;免疫组化及Western blot检测GR-α、GR-β、NLRP3、caspase-1、GSDMD的表达。体外实验用阿霉素诱导HK-2细胞损伤模型,分为空白组、模型组、联合组和NLRP3沉默组,Rt-PCR检测GR-α、GR-β、caspase-1、GSDMD mRNA的表达,Western blot检测GR-α、GR-β、caspase-1、GSDMD蛋白的表达。结果:体内实验中,与空白组比较,模型组大鼠的体质量减轻,24小时尿蛋白增多,白蛋白减少,总胆固醇、甘油三酯、肌酐、尿素氮升高,肾小管萎缩,肾间质区水肿,其中炎症细胞浸润明显,有纤维组织增生,肾组织中GR-β、NLRP3、caspase-1、GSDMD的水平上升,GR-α的水平降低(P<0.01);与模型组比较,联合组大鼠的体质量增加,24小时尿蛋白减少,白蛋白增多,总胆固醇、甘油三酯、肌酐、尿素氮降低,肾小管萎缩减轻,肾间质炎症细胞浸润减少,肾组织中GR-β、NLRP3、caspase-1、GSDMD的水平降低,GR-α的水平升高(P<0.01)。体外实验中,与空白组比较,模型组GR-β、caspase-1、GSDMD的mRNA及蛋白表达增加(P<0.01),GR-α的mRNA及蛋白表达降低(P<0.01);与模型组比较,联合组及NLRP3沉默组GR-β、caspase-1、GSDMD的mRNA及蛋白表达减少(P<0.01),GR-α的mRNA及蛋白表达增加(P<0.01)。结论:泼尼松联合ICA对SRNS大鼠的肾脏具有保护作用,可以提高SRNS大鼠的疗效,其机制可能与NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD通路相关。

Abstract:

AIM: To explore the therapeutic effect and possible molecular mechanisms of prednisone combined with icariin (ICA) on hormone resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). METHODS: In the in vivo experiment, rats were divided into control group, SRNS group, prednisone group, and P+I group. Each group was given corresponding drugs for 6 weeks. Detection of 24-hour urinary protein in rats using CBB; The blood biochemistry analyzer detects rat albumin, total cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, and urea nitrogen; HE and Masson were used to detect morphological changes in rat kidney tissue; Immunohistochemical detection of GR-α, GR-β, NLRP3, caspase-1, GSDMD, IL-1β. In the in vitro experiment, HK-2 cell injury model with doxorubicin, divided into control group, SRNS group, prednisone group, P+I group. GR-α, GR-β, NLRP3, caspase-1, GSDMD were detected by Rt-PCR and Western blot. RESULTS: In the in vivo experiment, compared with the control group, the SRNS group showed weight loss, increased 24-hour urine protein, decreased albumin, increased total cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, and urea nitrogen, renal tubular atrophy, increased renal interstitial area, significant infiltration of inflammatory cells, fibrous tissue proliferation, and GR-β, NLRP3, caspase-1, GSDMD, IL-1 β in renal tissue decreased (P<0.01); Compared with the SRNS group, the combined group showed weight gain, decreased 24-hour urine protein, increased albumin, decreased total cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, and urea nitrogen, reduced renal tubular atrophy, reduced interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration, reduced fibrosis, and and GR-α,NLRP3,caspase-1,GSDMD in renal tissue decreased increased (P<0.01). In vitro experiments, compared with the control group, the model group showed GR-β, NLRP3, caspase-1, and GSDMD increased (P<0.01), GR-α decreased (P<0.01); Compared with the SRNS group, GR- β, NLRP3, caspase-1, and GSDMD decreased (P<0.01), GR-α increased in the P+I group. CONCLUSION: The combination of prednisone and ICA has a protective effect on the kidneys of SRNS rats and can improve the therapeutic effect. The mechanism may be related to the NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD pathway.
