Renal injury and renal fibrosis are closely associated with the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) takes an indispensable place of human tubular epithelial cells in renal interstitial. The transforming growth factor TGF- ß1 induced EMT in human kidney proximal tubular epithelial cell line (HK-2 cells). At the same time, the morphology of HK-2 cells altered along with the change of treated methods clearly. These evidences suggest the abduction of EMT by TGF- ß1. Although the involvement in several physiological function of γ-Schisandrin had been discovered, the medical function of TGF- ß1-induced renal fibrosis is still undiscovered. As important elements of EMT, the increased expression of collagen type â… and â…£ decreased significantly after pre-treated with γ-Schisandrin. In addition, the gene expression of Snail, which represents myofibroblast, reduced obviously. In the present investigation, it was suggested that Sch might be capable to antagonize TGF- ß1-induced renal fibrosis and EMT in HK-2 cells. Overall, the application of traditional Chinese medicine (Sch) for the treatment of renal fibrosis patients provides an original therapeutic ideas and bright prospects to patients families.
