Effects of Panax Notoginsenosides on Proliferation and Oxidation Indices of Cisplatin-induced Nephroxicity in HK-2 Cells / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the effects of panax notoginsenosides on the proliferation and oxidation indices of cisplatin-induced nephroxicity in HK-2 cells. Methods:HK-2 cells were cultured in vitro till the number was up to 1 × 106/ml. The cells were inoculated in 96-well culture plate and randomly divided into six groupsnormal saline ( NS) group,the model group, the positive control group and the high dose group , medium dose group and low dose group of panax notoginsenosides ( PNS) . The nephroxicity model was dupli-cated with the addition of cisplatin (the final concentration was 6. 25μg·L-1). The model group, positive control group and the three panax notoginsenosides groups was treated with saline solutions, amifostine, panax notoginsenosides at the dose of 100,50 and 25 mg· L-1 , respectively. The cell viability was detected with an MTT method, the content of MDA and the activity of SOD, GSH-PX and LDH were measured and the cell structure was observed. DCFH-DA was used as the fluorescence probe to detect the level of ROS by a fluorescence microplate reader. Results:Compared with those in the model group, the cell viability and the activity of SOD and GSH-PX in the three PNS groups and the positive control group significantly increased (P<0. 05);the content of MDA, the level of ROS and the activity of LDH significantly decreased (P<0. 05); the cell structure was significantly improved. Conclusion: PNS can pro-mote the proliferation of HK-2 cells in vitro, and improve the biochemical parameters and enzyme levels. The results suggest that PNS has a protective effect on HK-2 cell,and the protective mechanisms may be related with its antioxidant effect.
