Abstract |
Objective |
The current study aimed to investigate whether the saponins, bioactive component of effects of D. collettii, could reduce the serum uric acid level in a hyperuricemic mouse via regulation of urate transporters.
Methods |
Chronic hyperuricemia model was established by combine administration of adenine (100mg/kg) and ethambutol (250mg/kg). In the model group, the serum uric acid (SUA), urine uric acid (UUA) volume, and 24-h UUA values increased significantly, while the uric acid clearance rate (CUr) and creatinine clearance rate (CCr) values decreased. Further, the model groups showed significantly lower expression of organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3) and significantly higher expression of renal tubular urate transporter 1 (URAT1), glucose transporter 9 (GLUT9) and URAT1 mRNA than the normal control group.
Results |
Saponins administration was found to have a dose-dependent effect, as evidenced by the increase in the 24-h UUA, CUr and CCr values; the decrease in SUA; the decrease in the renal expression of URAT1 mRNA and URAT1 and GLUT9 proteins; and the increase in the renal expression of the OAT1 and OAT3 proteins.
Conclusion |
The saponins extracted from D. collettii rhizomes had an obvious anti-hyperuricemic effect through downregulation of the URAT1 mRNA and the URAT1 and GLUT9 proteins and upregulation of the OAT1 and OAT3 proteins.
