Amaç: Sıçanlarda diyabetin neden olduğu böbrek
hasarına katkıda bulunan apoptoz düzenleyici genlerin ekspresyonunu
değerlendirerek güçlü bir biyoflavonoid olan quercetin'in renoprotektif ve
antiapoptotik etkilerini araştırmak.

Yöntemler: Sıçanlar 4 gruba ayrıldı; Kontrol,
STZ-diyabetik, STZ-diyabetik + Quercetin ve Quercetin kontrol. Açlık kan
şekeri, vücut ağırlığı ve idrar mikroalbüminüri değerleri ölçüldü.
İmmünohistokimya bax, bcl-2, kaspaz-3 antikorları kullanılarak
gerçekleştirildi. Apoptoz tespiti için TUNEL yöntemi uygulandı. Homojenize
böbrek dokularında ileri oksidasyon protein ürünleri (AOPP), protein karbonil
oksidasyon (PCO), malondialdehid (MDA) ve süperoksit dismutaz (SOD) aktivitesi
ölçüldü.

Bulgular: Tedavi edilmeyen diyabetik gruba kıyasla, quercetin uygulanan
diyabetik grupta kan şekeri ve mikroalbüminüri düzeyleri anlamlı olarak
azalmıştı (sırasıyla;
p=0,020, p=0,003). MDA, AOPP ve PCO seviyeleri
anlamlı olarak azaldı (sırasıyla; p=0,001, p=0,0001, p=0,0005), ancak SOD
aktivitesinin quercetin uygulanan diyabetik grupta arttığı tespit edildi (p=0,005). Quercetin uygulanan diyabetiklerde, tedavi edilmemiş diyabetik gruba
kıyasla bcl-2, bax ve kaspaz-3'ün immün boyanması azaldı.  Tedavi edilmeyen diyabetik grubun
böbrek tübüllerinde apoptotik hücrelerde belirgin bir artış gözlenirken,
quercetin uygulanan diyabetik grupta belirgin bir düşüş gözlendi (p=0,0001).

Sonuç: Antioksidan
etkileri olan quercetin'in antiapoptotik etkilerinin, diyabetik
komplikasyonların etkilerini azaltmada ve yeni komplikasyonları önlemede
yararlı olabileceği sonucuna vardık.

Renoprotective potential of quercetin in experimental diabetic nephropathy: assesing antiapoptotic and antioxidant effects

Öz

Aim: We investigated renoprotective
and anti-apoptotic effects of quercetin, a potent bioflavonoid, by evaluating expression
of apoptosis-regulatory genes that contribute to the kidney damage caused by
diabetes in rats.

Methods: Rats were divided
into 4 groups; Control, STZ-induced diabetic, STZ-induced diabetic+Quercetin
and Quercetin control. Values of fasting blood glucose, body weight and urine
microalbuminuria measured. Immunohistochemistry was performed using bax, bcl-2,
caspase-3 antibodies. For apoptosis detection, TUNEL method was applied.
Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), protein carbonyl oxidation (PCO),
malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were measured in
homogenized kidney tissues.

Results: Blood glucose and
microalbuminuria levels were significantly decreased in quercetin-treated
diabetic group compared to the untreated-diabetic group (p=0.020 and p=0.003; respectively).  MDA, AOPP and PCO levels were significantly
decreased (p=0.001, p=0.0001 and p=0.0005; respectively); however, SOD activity
were found to increase in quercetin-treated diabetic group (p=0.005).
Immunostaining of bcl-2, bax and caspase-3 was decreased compared to the
untreated-diabetic group. Apoptotic cells especially increased in the kidney
tubuli of untreated-diabetic group and on the contrary, a significant decrease
was observed in the group that received a quercetin treatment (p=0.0001).

Conclusion:
Our results revealed that antiapoptotic effects of quercetin, which has predominantly
antioxidant effects, may be useful in reducing effects of diabetic
complications and preventing new complications.
