Tetramethylpyrazine prevents contrast-induced nephropathy by inhibiting p38 MAPK and FoxO1 signaling pathways.
RatChemical/toxinSprague-DawleyMale
Model: Contrast-induced nephropathy (acute kidney injury) induced by contrast medium
Tetramethylpyrazine significantly attenuated the renal dysfunction and renal tubular cell apoptosis caused by contrast medium. Mechanistically it decreased phospho-p38 MAPK, attenuated the rise in FoxO1 mRNA and nuclear protein, inhibited inducible nitric oxide synthase and Bax, and upregulated Bcl…
