ABSTRACT
Objectives To observe the expressions ofα-smooth muscle actin (a-SMA) and type III collagen (Col-III) of tubuloin-terstitial ifbrosis(TIF) induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) in rat and the intervention effect of supplemental hydrogen sul-ifde (H2S). Methods Ninety-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups, sham-operated group, UUO model group, NaHS low-dose group and high-dose group. TIF rat model was established via UUO. After UUO operation, low-dose and high-dose group were intraperitoneally injected twice a day with 1.4μmol/kg and 7.0μmol/kg NaHS, respectively. Sham-operated group and UUO model group were given an equivalent volume of normal saline. Eight rats in each group were killed randomly at 7, 14 and 21 days after UUO operation. The concentration of plasma H2S was detected using deproteinization. Renal tubulointerstitial damage was evaluated with routine Hematoxylin and Eosin staining and Masson staining under microscope. The expressions ofα-SMA, Col-III were measured with immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with sham-operated group, renal tubulointerstitial injury was severer in UUO model group and was alleviated after intervention of NaHS. There was signiifcant difference in tubulointerstitial injury among all groups (P0.05). Conclusions TIF induced by UUO is associated with decreased level of endogenous H2S. H2S supplementation can ameliorate the development of UUO-associated TIF in part through down-regulating the expressions ofα-SMA and Col-III in renal tissues. However, a dose dependent manner between the two doses of exogenous H2S supplementation was not observed.
