目的: 糖尿病的 nephropathy 是糖尿病的主要复杂并发症和结束阶段的主要原因之一肾的疾病。在我们调查了的这研究,导致的胰岛素缺乏(标志) 在肾的 mesangial 房间(MC ) 并且在导致 STZ 的糖尿病的 rats.Methods 的肾变化: 有教养的老鼠肾的 MC 在标志媒介被孵化。房间增长用 BrdU 加入试金被分析。胰岛素受体(红外) 的表示,像胰岛素的生长 factor-1 受体(IGF-1R ) , phosphorylated IGF-1R, fibronectin,和骨胶原 IV 与西方的污点分析被决定。导致 STZ 的糖尿病的老鼠与 IGF-1R 对手 picropodophyllin 被对待(PPP, 20 mg·; kg −1·d−1, po ) 为 8 个星期。在老鼠是 euthanized 以后,血浆和肾是镇定的。在肾的外皮的 IGF-1 层次与 RT-PCR 或 ELISA 被测量。在肾的词法变化也是 examined.Results : 在标志媒介的孵化显著地增加了房间增长, fibronectin 的合成和骨胶原 IV,和在肾的 MC 的 IGF-1 和 IGF-1R 和 phosphorylated IGF-1R 的表示。有 PPP (50 nmol/L ) 的房间的预告的处理在房间增长和 fibronectin 和骨胶原 IV 的合成堵住了导致标志的增加;IGF-1R 击倒作为 PPP 显示出类似的效果。相反,有 IGF-1 (50 ng/mL ) 的房间的处理在房间增长加重了导致标志的增加。在糖尿病的老鼠, IGF-1 的表示, IGF-1R 和 phosphorylated 的肾, IGF-1R 显著地被提高。有 PPP 的糖尿病的老鼠的处理降低血葡萄糖层次,但是显著地压制了 TGF-β 的表示;,在肾的 fibronectin 和骨胶原 IV ,尿氮和 creatinine 的血浆层次,并且尿蛋白质 excretion.Conclusion :胰岛素缺乏在肾的 MC 和糖尿病的老鼠的肾增加 IGF-1 和 IGF-1R 的表达式,它贡献糖尿病的 nephropathy 的开发。
Aim: Diabetic nephropathy is one of the major complications of diabetes and the major cause of end-stage renal disease. In this study we investigated the insulin deficiency (ID) induced changes in renal mesangial cells (MCs) and in the kidney of STZ-induced diabetic rats. Methods: Cultured rat renal MCs were incubated in ID media. Cell proliferation was analyzed using BrdU incorporation assay. The expression of insulin receptor (IR), insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), phosphorylated IGF-1R, fibronectin, and collagen IV was determined with Western blot analysis. STZ-induced diabetic rats were treated with an IGF-1R antagonist picropodophyllin (PPP, 20 mg.k-1.d-1, pc) for 8 weeks. After the rats were euthanized, plasma and kidneys were collected. IGF-1 levels in renal cortex were measured with RT-PCR or ELISA. The morphological changes in the kidneys were also examined. Results: Incubation in ID media significantly increased cell proliferation, the synthesis of fibronectin and collagen IV, and the expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R and phosphorylated IGF-1R in renal MCs. Pretreatment of the cells with PPP (50 nmol/L) blocked ID-induced increases in cell proliferation and the synthesis of fibronectin and collagen IV; knockdown of IGF-1R showed a similar effect as PPP did. In contrast, treatment of the cells with IGF-1 (50 ng/mL) exacerbated ID-induced increases in cell proliferation. In the kidneys of diabetic rats, the expression of IGF-1, IGF-1R and phosphorylated IGF-1R were significantly elevated. Treatment of diabetic rats with PPP did not lower the blood glucose levels, but significantly suppressed the expression of TGF-β, fibronectin and collagen IV in the kidneys, the plasma levels of urinary nitrogen and creatinine, and the urinary protein excretion. Conclusion: Insulin deficiency increases the expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R in renal MCs and the kidney of diabetic rats, which contributes to the development of diabetic nephropathy.
