ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the protective effects of rosiglitazone maleate on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in mice and its mechanism.METHODS: 30 mice were randomly divided into sham operation group(normal saline),model group(normal saline) and rosiglitazone maleate group(rosiglitazone maleate 5 mg?kg-1?d-1).Three groups received relevant drugs for 10 days.Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model was induced in model group and rosiglitazone maleate group by clipping the renal pedicle 40 minutes after the last administration.The renal index,the content of blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and creatinine(Cr),the content of malondialdehyde(MDA),the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) in renal tissue were detected.Pathological change of renal tissue was observed by HE stain.RESULTS: Compared with model group,the renal index of the mice in rosiglitazone maleate group reduced(P
