[Protective effects and mechanism of congguiyishen capsules on diabetic nephropathy rats].

OBJECTIVE: To study the curative and protective effects of Congguiyishen Capsules on the diabetic nephropathy (DN) model rats.

METHODS: Established the DN model rats by intraperitoneal injection of urea bacteria element (Streptozotocin, STZ). The rats were divided into six groups including normal control group, model group, positive control group, high-dosage group, medium-dosage group and low-dosage group. After oral administration for 4 weeks, determined the 24 h urinary protein, Cr, kidney mass/body mass, FBG, Ang II, AT1R, AGTRAP and CTGF in the kidney. Observed the pathological damage of kidney tissue with Masson staining.

RESULTS: After treatment, Cr, kidney mass index, 24 h urine protein, FBG and Ang II were decreased signicantly (P < 0.05). And the treatment also alleviated the pathological damage of kidney tissue.

CONCLUSION: Congguiyishen Capsules have protective effect for DN model rats. The mechanism may be related to the suppression of inflammatory response and down-regulating the expression of AT1R, AGTRAP and CTGF.
