Popis: Advanced glycation end-products play an important role in the development of diabetic complications, so slowing down of glycated proteins’ cross-links formation have been suggested as a potential therapeutic option for the treatment of vascular diabetic complications and preventing their progression.The aim of the work was to assess the influence of novel anticrosslinking agent DF-5 on the renal advanced glycation end-products and collagen contents, body weight, blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels and the development of early renal disease in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.Materials and methods. 40 male Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. Two months after inducing diabetes, the study substance was administered intragastrically once a day for 28 days (12.5 mg/kg). Measurements included the assessment of blood glucose and HbA1c levels, the evaluation of the renal function, and the results of histology and immunohistochemical staining of kidneys.Results. A repeated intragastric administration of DF-5 for 30 days significantly reduced the level of HbA1c in the blood, but did not affect the level of fasting blood glucose. DF-5 compound significantly reduced proteinuria and prevented kidney damage in experimental animals by limiting damage of the glomeruli and tubules. It was found that DF-5 inhibits the progression of an early renal dysfunction in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy. This was associated with a decreased accumulation of advanced glycation end-products in the kidney, accompanied by the improvement of both renal morphology and function.Conclusion. The results obtained provide investigators with additional therapeutic options for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy and possibly other complications of diabetes.
