ABSTRACT
Object To understand if abnormal prostaglandin production is involved in the pathogenesis of chronic renal failure induced by the cane of Aristolochia manshuriensis Kom. Methods Rats in experimental group were given 10 g/kg of the cane of A. manshuriensis everyday for eight weeks. The control group was given the same amount of tap water. At the 8th week, kidney pathology, renal function, serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and urinary protein excretion were recorded. The content of 6 keto PGF 1? and TXB 2 in the urine, plasma and renal cortex tissues were determined. Results The urinary protein excretion, SCr and BUN had been significantly increased in rat experimental group. Microscopic examination of the kidney revealed focal degeneration and necrosis of tubular epithelial cells and slight intersititial fibrosis. The ratio of 6 keto PGF 1? /TXB 2 was markedly decreased in the urine, plasma as well as renal cortex tissues. Conclusion Abnormal prostaglandin production is an important pathogenic factor in the pathogenesis of chronic renal failure induced by the cane of A. manshuriensis
