T0901317 improves renal injury in db/db mice by activating liver X receptor α
To determine the effects of liver X receptor (LXR) agonist T0901317 and thrombomodulin (TM) interfering RNA recombinant adenovirus Ad-TM shRNA on renal injury of db/db mice with diabetic nephropathy (DN).
Methods
2
A total of 36 male db/db mice (12 weeks old) were randomly assigned into 6 groups (
n
=6)
DN group
Ad-ctrl+DN group
Ad-TMshRNA+DN group
T0901317+DN group
Ad-TMshRNA+T0901317+DN group and Ad-ctrl+T0901317+DN group. PBS
2.5×10
9
pfu Ad-TM shRNA and Ad-ctrl were injected into mice through tail vein to corresponding mice
while 0.5 mg/(kg·d) T0901317 was intragastrically administered to the corresponding mice for 7 consecutive days. After treatment for 4 weeks
the kidney tissues were collected for detecting the expression of LXRα
LXRβ
VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 by Western blotting. The serum creatinine level was also detected in all the mice. Male wild-type C57BL/6 mice at the same age served as normal control.
Results
2
The expression of LXRα in kidney tissue was significantly lower in the DN group and Ad-ctrl+DN group than the wild-type mice (
P
<
0.05)
but was obviously higher in the T0901317+DN group
the Ad-TMshRNA+T0901317+DN group and the Ad-ctrl+T0901317+DN group than the DN group
Ad-ctrl+DN group and the Ad-TM shRNA+DN group (
P
<
0.05). The expression of LXRβ in DN mice was notably lower than that in the wild-type mice (
P
<
0.05). T0901317 had no significant effect on the LXRβ expression in renal tissue of DN mice. The DN control group and Ad-ctrl+DN group had significantly higher serum level of creatinine and renal expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1
and aggravated renal pathological damages when compared with the wild-type mice (
P
<
0.05). When compared with the DN group
Ad-TMshRNA silenced mice groups had severer renal damages and elevated expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 (
P
<
0.05)
while the renal damages were alleviated and the expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 were decreased in the T0901317+DN group and the Ad-ctrl+T0901317+DN group (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
T0901317 improves renal injury in db/db mice by activating LXRα to reduce the expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1.
