摘要
目的观察1%L-精氨酸(L-arg)饮食对5/6肾大部切除大鼠(SNx)残余肾代偿性增生(CRG)的影响。方法实验分组:(1)假手术(sham)组;(2)sham+L-arg组;(3)SNx组;(4)SNx+L-arg组。大鼠于术后30天处死,观察L-arg对残余肾湿重(KW)、肾重/体重比(KW/BW)、CRG、残余肾蛋白质、DNA含量、细胞增生以及平均肾小球体积(VG)的影响。结果L-arg明显增加KW(P<0.05)、KW/BW(P<0.05)、CRG(P<0.05)以及残余肾蛋白质、DNA含量(P分别<0.01,0.001)。免疫组化显示,残余肾小管、间质增殖细胞核抗原(PCNA)阳性细胞数明显增加(P<0.05)。此外,SNx+L-arg组VG较SNx组增加16%。结论L-精氨酸可能刺激残余肾代偿性增生。
Objective To observe the influence of L-arginine(L-arg)on the compensatory renal growth (CRG)in rats with 5/6 subtotal nephrectomy(SNx).Methods This experiment included four groups(n=5 per group):1.Sham,2 Sham+L-arg,3.SNx,4.SNx+L-arg.Rats were sacrificed at the end of one month experiment.The following parameters were studied:wet remnant kidney weight (KW),ratio of kidney weight/body weight(KW/BW),CRG,protein and DNA content of remnant kideny.The immunohistochemical staining for proliferative cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)and mean glomerular volume were also determined(VG).Results L-arg significantly increased KW (P<0.05),KW/BW(P<0.05),CRG(P<0.05)and the content of protein and DNA(P<0.01,0001 respectively)in rats with SNx compared to those without Larg treatment.Furthermore,immunostaining for PCNA showed that Larg treatment significantly increased the number of PCNA positive cells in the tubulointerstitium of remnant kidney(P<0.05).The VG was also increased 16% in L-arginine treated SNx rats.Conclusion L-arginine might potentiate the CRG of remnant kidney,which implied the potential therapeutic role of limiting L-arg supplementation on the progression of chronic renal scarring.
