Objective To explore the molecular and cellular mechanism of Zaohuang Capsule No.3 (ZHC3) in treating chronic renal failure through observing the effect of ZHC3 on the human glomerular mesangial cells (GMC). Methods The proliferation of human GMC fostered in ZHC3 was detected by MTT
and the fibronectin (FN)
interleukin 6 (IL-6) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) secretion was detected by ELISA. Results ZHC3 significantly inhibited GMC proliferation (P<0.01) and decreased the FN
IL-6 and TGF-β1 release (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion ZHC3 reduces the accumulation of extracelluar matrix and delays glomerular sclerosis.This may be the mechanism of ZHC3 in treating chronic renal failure.
