Effects of celecoxib and Indomethacin on the VEGF and Microvessel Density in remnant kidney of rats with 5/6 subtotal nephrectomy / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective Our aim is to investigate the effects of lndomethacin on the expression of VEGF and the change of Micmves-sel Density(MVD)in remnant kidney of rats with 5/6 subtotal nephrectomy(STNx).Methods The renal subtotal ablation model was established by surgically 5/6 renal resection of the male Spragne-Dawley(SD)rats.Three groups were divided in our experimental protocol,including Sham,STNx and STNxI group.At the 8th week after gastric gavage,pathological changes of the remnant kidney were evaluated.Immunohistachemistry were used to examine the expression ofVEGF and MVD in the remnant kidney.Results At the 8th week after gastric gavage,only Up was significant decreased(P<0.05).TIS in Indomethacin group WaS significandy increased(P<0.05)and the preitu bular capillary density wa$significant decreased(P<0.05),compared with STNx group.Although BUN,Cr,the remnant kidney glomerulus's GSI were also decreased,the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).The glomendus～capillary density had no signifi-cant difference(P>0.05).In all rats,the expression of VEGF was positive correlated with capillary density between glomemlus and tubu-lointerstitimn(P<0.05).Conclusions Iadomethacin Can decrease UP in remnant kidney of rats with 5/6 subtotal nephrectemy(ST-Nx),and decrease the preitubular capillary density and aggravate mbulointerstitial injury at the same time.
