Methods: 100 female rats, initially classified according to the weight of the rats, using a round-robin allocation method to ensure an even distribution of weights in each group. Divided into 3 large groups on average, each group of 30 rats, from which 1 group was randomly selected as the blank, and the remaining two groups were used for modeling with the CLP method. A total of 100 female rats were initially classified according to their body weights. The round-robin allocation method was used to ensure a uniform distribution of body weights among each group. The rats were evenly divided into three major groups, with 30 rats in each group. One group was randomly selected as the blank group, and the remaining two groups were used to establish the model using the CLP method, namely the experimental group and the control group. Subsequently, according to the body weights of the rats, each of these two groups was further divided into three subgroups (8-hour group, 16-hour group, and 24-hour group) using the round-robin classification method, with 10 rats in each subgroup. Ten rats died during the process, and new rats were used to continue the modeling to make up for the loss. The experimental group was administered Sini Decoction by gavage, while the control group and the blank group were administered normal saline by gavage. At the time points of 8 h, 16 h, and 24 h, the renal tissues of the rats in each group were collected for HE staining, and the renal injury score was calculated. Western blotting (WB) was used to detect the protein expressions of NLRP3 and Caspase-1 in the renal tissues, and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the expressions of serum IL-1β and IL-18. Results: 1) After HE staining of the renal tissues, under a high-power microscope, in the control group, the normal morphology of the kidneys was found to be damaged starting from 8 hours, with a significant increase in the volume of the glomeruli, expansion of the renal capsule cavity, swelling of the mesangial cells, and infiltration of interstitial inflammatory cells. The situation at 16 hours was more severe than that at 8 hours, with obvious interstitial bleeding and a large number of inflammatory cell infiltrations. At 24 hours, the glomeruli were ischemic and shrunk, losing their normal morphology;the glomerular-capsular space was enlarged, the exudation of inflammatory cells increased, and the tubular epithelial cells were swollen. The renal pathological changes in the experimental group at 8 hours and 16 hours were significantly milder than those in the control group. In the renal injury score, the renal injury gradually worsened over time (P P P P > 0.05). 3) Serum IL-1β and IL-18 were detected by ELISA, and they began to increase at 8 h (P P P > 0.05). This is similar to the WB results. Conclusion: Sini Decoction may improve renal function in SD rats with sepsis acute kidney injury by mediating NLRP3-Caspase-1-IL-1β/IL-18 signaling pathway.展开更多
