ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Previous studies have shown that continuous administration of 1×107 of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can induce immune tolerance in rats undergoing kidney transplantation, but it is not yet found clinical y that curcumin exerts an on immunomodulatory effect on kidney transplantation.OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effects of different concentrations of curcumin on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s-induced immune tolerance in rats after kidney transplantation.METHODS:
Rat model of kidney transplantation was made, and rat models were randomly divided into four groupstransplantation group with no treatment;bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s group (cel group) injected with 1×107/kg bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s via the left iliac vein (before peritoneal suture) and tail vein (from the 2nd day) for 10 days;bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s+low/high dosage of curcumin groups (low/high dosage curcumin groups) injected intragastrical y with 2 or 10 mg/kg curcumin combined with injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s for 10 days. Transforming growth factor-β1 protein expression in the kidney tissues was examined by immunohistochemical staining. The concentrations of interleukin-2 and interleukin-6 in serum were detected by ELISA assay. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
After kidney transplantation, the protein expression of transforming growth factor-β1 in renal tubular epithelial cel s and renal interstitial cel s as wel as the concentrations of interleukin-2and interleukin-6 in serum were significantly higher in the transplantation group than the other groups (P<0.05). Compared with the cel transplantation group, the protein expression of transforming growth factor-β1 as wel as the concentrations of interleukin-2 and interleukin-6 reduced significantly in the low/high dosage curcumin groups (P<0.05). These findings indicate that simultaneous administration of curcumin and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s can effectively inhibit immune rejection reaction and improve renal function in rats after kidney transplantation.
