Podocyte injury is closely related to proteinuria in the progress of diabetic nephropathy(DN). The pathological characters of podocyte injury mainly refer to the change of podocyte form and function, including foot process effacement, reduction of podocyte number and density, podocyte apoptosis,
Context:Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F.H. Chen (Araliaceae) preparations (PNP) are traditional Chinese medicines used as adjuvant therapeutics for diabetic kidney disease (DKD).Objective: To systematically review the efficacy of PNP as adjunct DKD therapy, including their effects
BACKGROUND
The actin cytoskeleton in podocytes is essential for the maintenance of its normal structure and function. Its disruption is a feature of podocyte foot-process effacement and is associated with proteinuria. α-Actinin-4 in podocytes serves as a linker protein binding the actin filaments of
MRL/lpr mice suffer from a systemic lupus erythematosus-like autoimmune disease. We studied the effects of oral treatments with Ninjin-youei-to (NYT, Ren-shen-yang-rong-tang, 1000 mg/kg/day), a suboptimal dose (2 mg/kg/day) of prednisolone(PSL) and their combination on nephritis in MRL/lpr mice.
Autoimmune MRL/lpr mice were i.p. treated with 200 mg/kg Ren-shen-yang-rong-tang (Japanese name: Ninjin-youei-to, NYT), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine (Japanese name: Kampo), from 8 weeks of age every 3 days before the onset of autoimmune disease Compared to age-matched control MRL/lpr mice,
Therapeutic effects of combined treatment with a Chinese medicine prescription, Ren-shen-yang-rong-tang (Japanese name: Ninjin-youei-to, NYT) and suboptimal doses of prednisolone (PSL) on pathological findings of autoimmune-prone MRL/lpr mice were examined. Six-week-old MRL/lpr mice were treated
MRL/Mp-lpr/lpr (MRL/lpr) mice were treated with a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, Ren-shen-yang-rong-tang (Japanese name: Ninjin-youei-to, NYT) intraperitoneally (i.p.) every 3 days or per os (p.o.) 6 times/week from before the onset of autoimmune disease (6 weeks of age). Fifty percent
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a severe and life-threatening complication of long-standing diabetes. As one of the main causes of end-stage renal disease, the prevention and treatment of DN in early stage, and the slowing down of DN progression are of utmost importance and are topics of several
