| Popis: | Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) can reduce urinary protein excretion and postpone the deterioration of renal function. However, the mechanisms of renal protection are not yet fully understood. To investigate the mechanisms of ACEIs in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy (DN), the present study determined the effects of the ACEI fosinopril (FP) on the profiling of renal cortex protein expression in Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty (OLETF) rats using Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka (LETO) rats as controls. Urinary protein levels at 24 h were examined using the Broadford method. PAS staining was performed to observe renal histopathological changes. The kidney cortices of OLETF, FP-treated OLETF and LETO rats were examined using soluble and insoluble high-resolution subproteomic analysis methodology at age of 36 and 56 weeks. Differentiated proteins were further confirmed using western blotting analysis. The results demonstrated that FP significantly decreased the glomerulosclerosis index and reduced the 24 h urinary protein excretion of OLETF rats. Additionally, 17 proteins significantly changed following FP-treatment. Amongst these proteins, the abundances of the stress-response protein heat shock protein family A member 9 and the antioxidant glutathione peroxidase 3 were particularly increased. These results indicated that FP ameliorated diabetic renal injuries by inhibiting oxidative stress. In conclusion, the differentially expressed proteins may improve our understanding of the mechanism of ACEIs in the OLETF rats. |
