[Study of the Shenshuaining dispersible tablets in treating chronic renal failure rats induced by adenine].

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:

To observe the effect of Shenshuaining dispersible tablets in treating chronic renal failure (CRF) rats.

METHODS:

Seventy-two Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal control group, model control group, Niaoduqing group, Shenshuaining dispersible tablets group (high, middle and low dose). Model of CRF was constnucted by feeding the rats with feed containing 0.5% adenine. After 7 weeks, renal function, albumin (Alb), blood routine, blood electrolyte were detected and general status, changes of the kidney tissue were observed.

RESULTS:

Compared with normal rats, the levels of serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr) were markedly elevated in CRF rats, while the levels of Alb markedly failed. The serum potassium, natrium and phosphorus contents were significantly increased, the serum calcium contents were significantly decreased. The levels of red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin and haematocrit were significantly failed. The CRF rats' kidney indexes were increased and appeared abnormity under pathology inspection. Shenshuaining dispersible tablets could markedly ameliorate above indexes.

CONCLUSION:

Shenshuaining dispersible tablets can treat CRF through effectively ameliorating the CRF rats' renal function, regulating the electrolyte turbulence, increasing the levels of Alb and ameliorate anemia and pathological changes of the kidney tissue.
