Leonuride protects diabetic nephropathy by activating SREBPs pathway.
Diabetic nephropathy (DN), a micro vascular complication of diabetes, is the main cause of end-stage renal disease, with a morbidity over 40% of diabetes. High glucose and lipid metabolism dysfunction are the leading cause of the development of DN. Previous study demonstrated that increased expression or activation of SREBPs in models of DN. Leonuride (LE), as an active constituent of Leonurus japonicus Houttuyn, has multiple biological activities, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Previous studies showed that increasing the degradation of mature SREBPs is a robust way of lowering lipids and improve lipid metabolism dysfunction. However, effective regulation method of SREBPs degradation are still lacking. Herein, this study indicated that LE can effectively improve glucose and lipid metabolism disorders. In addition, the kidney function was also improved by inhibition of SREBPs activities in streptozocin (STZ)-induced type II diabetic mice. To our knowledge, this is the first time to describe the detailed mechanism of LE on the inhibition of precursor SREBPs, which would present a new direction for diabetic nephropathy treatment.
期刊介绍:
Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences (PJPS) is a peer reviewed multi-disciplinary pharmaceutical sciences journal. The PJPS had its origin in 1988 from the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Karachi as a biannual journal, frequency converted as quarterly in 2005, and now PJPS is being published as bi-monthly from January 2013.
PJPS covers Biological, Pharmaceutical and Medicinal Research (Drug Delivery, Pharmacy Management, Molecular Biology, Biochemical, Pharmacology, Pharmacokinetics, Phytochemical, Bio-analytical, Therapeutics, Biotechnology and research on nano particles.
