The Effect of Moringa Isothiocyanate-1 on Renal Damage in Diabetic Nephropathy.
Introduction: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the most common clinical complication of diabetes mellitus. Moringa isothiocyanate-1 (MIC-1) is effective in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, but its mechanism of action in DN remains obscure. This research specifically probed the role of MIC-1 in modulating renal injury in DN.
Methods: Six db/m mice were assigned to control group and twelve db/db mice were randomly allocated to the db/db and db/db + MIC-1 groups. The body and kidney weights of the mice were monitored. Renal function indicators and oxidative stress-related markers were assessed by automatic biochemical analyzer and ELISA method. The pathological changes, apoptosis of renal tissues, extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) 1/2/ Nuclear factor erythroid2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway-related markers, and the positive expressions of podocalyxin (Pod) and synaptopodin (Syn) were measured by H&E, PAS, and TUNEL staining, Western blot, and IHC assay.
Results: MIC-1 reduced the body and kidney weights, and increased the kidney organ index (calculated as 100*kidney weight/ body weight) in db/db mice. In addition, MIC-1 improved renal function, kidney tissue injury, and apoptosis of db/db mice. MIC1 noticeably repressed the contents of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) and enhanced the contents of (glutathione) GSH, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT) in db/db mice. At molecular level, db/db mice showed a decrease in p-ERK/ERK, Nrf2, SOD-1, heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), and CAT and an increase in p- inhibitor kappa B alpha (IKBα) and p-Nuclear factor-kappa B (P65/P65), which were reversed when MIC-1 was administered. Furthermore, MIC-1 facilitated the positive expressions of Pod and Syn of the kidney tissues in db/db mice.
Conclusion: MIC-1 reduces oxidative stress and renal injury by activating the ERK/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling and repressing the NFκB signaling in db/db mice. DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7515.
期刊介绍:
The Iranian Journal of Kidney Diseases (IJKD), a peer-reviewed journal in English, is the official publication of the Iranian Society of Nephrology. The aim of the IJKD is the worldwide reflection of the knowledge produced by the scientists and clinicians in nephrology. Published quarterly, the IJKD provides a new platform for advancement of the field. The journal’s objective is to serve as a focal point for debates and exchange of knowledge and experience among researchers in a global context. Original papers, case reports, and invited reviews on all aspects of the kidney diseases, hypertension, dialysis, and transplantation will be covered by the IJKD. Research on the basic science, clinical practice, and socio-economics of renal health are all welcomed by the editors of the journal.
