| Popis: | Macrophages are essential in tissue homeostasis and immunity, but also contribute to disease development and progression. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by interstitial infiltration of macrophages, the density of which correlates inversely with kidney survival. Studies have shown that yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) has beneficial effects on CKD. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of yacon leaf extract on mice with subtotal nephrectomy by evaluating the M1 and M2 macrophage counts and mRNA expressions of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1 and IL-10. The mice were randomly divided into five groups: SO (negative control: underwent sham operation), SN (positive control: underwent subtotal nephrectomy), and yacon-treated groups: YK1, YK2, and YK3 (underwent subtotal nephrectomy, given peroral yacon leaf extract for 14 days with doses of 24,5 mg/kgBW/day, 49 mg/kgBW/day, and 98 mg/kgBW/day, respectively). The macrophage subtypes were assessed using immunohistochemistry anti-CD68 for M1 and anti-Arginase I for M2. MCP-1 and IL-10 mRNA expressions were analyzed using semi-quantitative PCR. Results showed that yacon leaf extract could significantly lower the M2 macrophage count (p |
