ABSTRACT: Objectives
This study aimed to explore the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of salidroside (SAL) in angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertensive renal injury and fibrosis, using in vivo and in vitro models.Methods
In this study, we generated Ang II-induced hypertensive renal injury and fibrosis in mice and the recombinant interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)-stimulated murine podocyte clone 5 (MPC5) model in vitro. Histological and oxidative stress analyses were performed to evaluate the renal injury.Results
SAL pre-treatment reduced systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), and attenuated serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and serum cystatin C (Cys-C) levels in Ang II-infused mice (all, P</
