Synergistic interaction of effective parts in Rehmanniae Radix and Cornus officinalis ameliorates renal injury in C57BL/KsJ-db/db diabetic mice: Involvement of suppression of AGEs/RAGE/SphK1 signaling pathway
چکیده انگلیسی

Ethnopharmacological relevanceRehmanniae Radix (RR) and Cornus officinalis (CO) are two traditional Chinese medicines widely used in China for treating diabetes mellitus and its complications, such as diabetic nephropathy. Iridoid glycoside of Cornus officinalis (IGCO), triterpenoid acid of Cornus officinalis (TACO) and iridoid glycoside of Rehmanniae Radix (IGRR) formed an innovative formula named combinatorial bioactive parts (CBP). The aims of the present study were to investigate the renoprotective effects of CBP on DN through the inhibition of AGEs/RAGE/SphK1 signaling pathway activation, and identify the advantage of CBP compared with IGCO, TACO, IGRR.Materials and methodsThe db/db diabetic renal injury model was used to examine the renoprotective effects of CBP, IGCO, TACO and IGRR. For mechanistic studies, diabetic symptoms, renal functions, and pathohistology of pancreas and kidney were evaluated. AGEs/RAGE/SphK1 pathway were determined.ResultsCBP, IGCO, TACO and IGRR inhibited the decrease in serum insulin levels and the increases in urine volume, food consumption, water intake, TC, TG, glycated serum protein, fasting blood glucose levels, 24 h urine protein levels, and serum levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine. It also prevented ECM accumulation and improved the histology of pancreas and kidney, and alleviated the structural alterations in mesangial cells and podocytes in renal cortex. Moreover, CBP, IGCO, TACO and IGRR down-regulated the elevated staining, protein levels of RAGE, SphK1, TGF-β and NF-κB. Among the treatment groups, CBP produced the strongest effects.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that the inhibitory effect of CBP, IGCO, TACO and IGRR on the activation of AGEs/RAGE/SphK1 signaling pathway in db/db diabetic mice kidney is a novel mechanism by which CBP, IGCO, TACO and IGRR exerts renoprotective effects on DN. Among all the groups, CBP produced the strongest effect while IGCO, TACO and IGRR produced weaker effects.
