摘要
目的:基于肾素原受体(PRR)介导的丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号通路,研究参附强心丸对心肾综合征大鼠心肾凋亡的保护作用机制。方法:Wistar大鼠经肾脏急性缺血再灌注损伤合并腹主动脉缩窄术,制备大鼠心肾综合征(CRS)模型。将CRS大鼠随机分成CRS模型组(ig 10 m L·kg-1纯净水),CRS+参附强心丸组(SFQX组,ig参附强心丸13.2g·kg-1),CRS+柄区肽(HRP)组(iv HRP 10 mg·kg-1),假手术组(ig等体积纯净水)。术后8周给药,1次/d,持续4周。实验结束后,测定血清脑钠肽(BNP),尿素氮(BUN)和肌酐(Cr),小动物超声心动仪测定小动物超声监测舒张末室间隔厚度(IVS),舒张末期左心室后壁厚度(LVPW),左心室射血分数(LVEF),实时荧光PCR测定左心室和肾脏PRR mRNA表达,免疫印迹法(Western blot)测定丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)信号通路,包括细胞外信号调控的蛋白激酶(ERK1/2),c-Jun氨基末端激酶(JNK),P38蛋白表达,原位末端标记法(TUNEL)测定左心室和肾脏组织细胞凋亡。结果:与假手术组比较,CRS大鼠血清BNP,BUN,Cr明显升高(P<0.05),IVS,LVPW显著增加(P<0.01),LVEF显著降低(P<0.01),左心室质量指数显著增加(P<0.01),左肾脏质量指数显著减小(P<0.01),组织PRR mRNA高表达(P<0.01),ERK1/2,p38,JNK蛋白表达升高(P<0.01),心肌和肾脏细胞凋亡率达32.5%,63.2%。参附强心丸13.2 g·kg-1可明显减轻CRS大鼠心肌肥厚,抑制IVS,LVPW肥厚,增加EF,血清BUN,Cr明显降低,降低受损组织PRR mRNA表达和ERK1/2,p38蛋白表达,降低心肌和肾脏细胞凋亡率。结论:参附强心丸可增强CRS大鼠心肾功能,通过降低心肾组织PRR mRNA表达,抑制MAPK信号通路ERK1/2,JNK,P38磷酸化,降低心肾细胞凋亡。
Objective: To explore the protective mechanism of Shenfu Qiangxin pill( SFQX) on heart and kidney cells apoptosis in rats with cardio-renal syndrome( CRS) based on the( pro) rennin receptor( PRR)-mediated mitogen-activated protein kinase( MAPK) signal pathways. Method: Wistar rats underwent reperfusion injury combined with abdominal aortic constriction after renal ischaemia to prepare CRS models. The CRS rats were divided randomly into three groups: CRS model group( 10 m L·kg- 1pure water,ig); CRS + SFQX group( SFQX group,13. 2 g·kg- 1SFQX,ig); CRS + Handle region peptide( HRP) group( 10 mg·kg- 1HRP,iv). The rats in sham operation group were ig given with the same volume of pure water. Treatments were given 8 weeks after surgery,1 time / day,for 4 weeks. After the experiment,the rats were detected for brain natriuretic peptide( BNP),urea nitrogen( BUN),and creatinine( Cr) levels; ultrasound cardiograph for small animals was used to detect end diastolic interventricular septum thickness( IVS),left ventricular end diastolic posterior wall thickness( LVPW) and left ventricular ejection fraction( LVEF); real time fluorescent PCR was used to measure PRR mRNA expressions of left ventricle and kidney; Western blot assay was used to determine MAPK signal pathways,including extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 /2( ERK1 /2),C-Jun amino terminal kinase( JNK),and P38 protein expressions; Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase d UTP nick and labeling( TUNEL) was used to detect cells apoptosis of left ventricular and renal tissues. Result: Compared to the sham operation group,serum BNP,BUN and Cr levels were significantly increased( P〈0. 05); IVS,LVPW levels were significantly increased( P〈0. 01); LVEF levels were significantly decreased( P〈0. 01); mass index of left ventricle was significantly increased( P〈0. 01); mass index of left kidney was significantly decreased in CRS rats( P〈0. 01). Expression of PRR mRNA was increased( P〈0. 01); protein expressions of ERK1 /2,p38 and JNK were increased( P〈0. 01). Myocardial and renal cell apoptosis rate was 32. 5% and 63. 2% respectively. SFQX 13. 2 g·kg- 1could significantly reduce cardiac hypertrophy in CRS rats,inhibit IVS and LVPW,increase EF,significantly decrease BUN and Cr,decrease PRR mRNA expression and ERK1 /2,P38 protein expression of injured tissues,and decrease the myocardial and renal cell apoptosis rate. Conclusion: SFQX could improve the heart and kidney function of CRS rats,and reduce myocardial and renal cell apoptosis through reducing PRR mRNA expression of myocardial and renal cells and inhibiting ERK1 /2,JNK and P38 phosphorylation in MAPK signal pathways.
