Influence of QDPR expression on DHFR expression of NRK-52E cells in high gluoc se ambience / 医学研究生学报

Objective K93T point mutation exists in the quinoid dihydropteridine reductase ( QDPR) of OLEFT rats which catalyzes QDPR into tetrahydrobinopterin(BH4), while dihydrofolate reductase(DHFR) can reduce QDPR to BH4, which implies crosstalk between hydrobiopterin and folate metabolism.By investigating the influence of QDPR expression on DHFR expression of NRK-52E cells, the article aimed to find out the possible underlying mechanism of QDPR gene in diabetic nephropathy ( DN). Methods Western blot was performed to identify the expression level in NRK-52E cell under high glucose ambience and DHFR pro-tein expression of OLETF rats.NRK-52E cells were transfected by the lentivirus to establish no-load overexpression, overexpressed QDPR and knockdown QDPR models.Each group was given 5.4 mmol/L normal sugar medium and 30mmol/L in high glucose ambi-ence for 72 hours'cell cultivation to simulate DN model.Observation was made on the influence of QDPR gene expression levels on DHFR in high glucose ambience. Results The western blot analysis revealed that DHFR protein decreased in NHG group( [0.33 ± 0.16] vs [0.64 ±0.5], P<0.05) and OLETF rats cortex ([0.56 ±0.16] vs [1.03 ±0.12], P<0.01).In high glucose ambi-ence, compared with LV-OCON-HG group, the protein expression of DHFR was significantly decreased in LV-QDPR-HG group ([0.12 ±0.09] vs [0.63 ±0.08], P<0.01).No difference was found in the comparison of DHFR expression levels between LV-SHQDPR-HG and LV-SHCON-HG group. Conclusion DHFR protein expression decreases in NRK-52E cells of high glucose and LOLETF rat model, which suggests that DHFR protein plays an important role in the development of DN.QDPR overexpression leads to the decreased expression of DHFR, which implies that overexpressed QDPR influences the occurrence and process of DN by down-regulating DHFR expression level.

QDPR gene expression level influences oxidative stress of NRK-52E cells in high glucose / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

_ Objective_ To study whether quinoid dihydropteridine reductase ( QDPR ) expression level change can affect oxidative stress of NRK-52E renal tubular cells in a high glucose environment. Methods The NRK-52E model of overexpression, knockdown QDPR gene and respective control were constructed by lentivirus. All groups were given 5. 4 mmol/L and 30 mmol/L glucose culture medium respectively to imitate normal and high glucose condition. The level of superoxide anion ( O-2 ) was detected by flow cytometer dihydroethidium method. The protein expression level of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1)was tested by Western blot. Results QDPR over-expression can decrease O-2(P<0. 01)and SOD1(P<0. 05)levels in high glucose condition;QDPR knockdown increases O-2(P<0. 01) and does not change SOD1. Conclusion Under high glucose condition, overexpression of QDPR gene decreases NRK-52E cell oxidative stress. Knockdown QDPR gene increases NRK-52E cell oxidative stress. QDPR gene may influence the development of diabetic nephropathy by oxidative stress.

Effects of Tangshen Formula on liver oxidative stress and pathologic changes in typeⅡdiabetic rats / 天津医药

Objective To investigate the effects of Tangshen Formula on liver oxidative stress in diabetic rats, and their mechanisms thereof.Methods Rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease was estab?lished by intraperitoneally injecting small dose of chain urea with cephalosporins (STZ) and feeding high fat fodder . The model rats were randomly divided into control group, model group, Tangshen Formula group and metformin group.The se?rum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (CHO), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase(CAT), vitamin E(VE), nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in liver were compared between four groups. Changes of pathological morphology were ob?served under light microscopy. Results There were significantly decrease in serum levels of ALT, AST, TG, CHO, LDL-C in Tangshen Formula group and metformin group compared with those of model group. There were significantly higher levels of SOD, CAT and VE, and lower levels of NO and NOS of liver homogenate in Tangshen Formula group than those of model group. There were higher levels of SOD and CAT, and lower levels of NO and NOS in liver homogenate in metformin group than those of model group. HE staining showed that liver fatty degeneration was significantly reduced in metformin group and Tangshen Formula group compared with that of model group. Conclusion The fatty liver in type 2 diabetic rats is signifi?cantly improved by Tangshen Formula treatment, which is probably associated with the regulation of the response level to oxi?dative stress in liver.
