Popis: ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Zao Huang Mixture (ZHM) on expressions of growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and collagen IV (Col IV) in human glomerular mesangial cells (GMC) cultured in high-glucose environment.MethodsAfter primary culture of GMC, in vitro culture was carried out in normal group, high glucose group and high glucose medium with ZHM of different concentrations, and the expressions of TGF-β1 and Col IV in the GMC group and in ZHM group were detected at 24 and 48 h respectively.ResultsCompared with the normal group, expressions of TGF-β1 and Col IV significantly increased at 24 h, 48 h in the high glucose group (all P
