Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and underlying mechanism of allicin on type 2 diabetic nephropathy(DN). Methods Twenty-seven male SD rats were randomly divided into a sham-operated group,a model group,and an allicin group,with 9 rats in each group. The DN model was established in rats from the model and allicin groups. After successful modeling,the groups received respective interventions. Renal function indicators and oxidative stress markers were assessed. Reactive oxygen species(ROS)level in rat kidney tissues was detected using a fluorescent probe method. Renal histopathology was observed by periodic acid-Schiff(PAS) staining and hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining,and the ultrastructure of renal tissue cells was examined by transmission electron microscopy. Western Blot analysis was employed to detect pyroptosis-related proteins [gasdermin E(GSDME),NLR family pyrin domain containing 1(NLRP1),NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3),caspase-1,and heat shock protein family A member 1B(HSPA1B)] in renal tissues. Quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to measure the mRNA expression level of cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 antisense RNA 1(CYP1B 1-AS1). RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP)assay was performed to validate the interaction between HSPA1B and CYP1B 1-AS1. Results Compared with the sham-operated group,the model group exhibited significantly abnormal renal function indicators and oxidative stress levels,marked inflammatory infiltration,glycogen deposition,and characteristic features of pyroptosis in renal tissues. ROS level in renal tissues was significantly elevated,accompanied by increased protein expression levels of pyroptosis-related markers(GSDME,NLRP1,NLRP3,Caspase1,HSPA1B)and upregulation of CYP1B 1-AS1 mRNA expression(P<0.05). In contrast,compared with the model group,the allicin-treated group demonstrated significantly improved renal function and oxidative stress parameters,alleviated renal inflammatory infiltration,glycogen deposition,and pyroptotic features. ROS level in renal tissues was notably reduced,and the expression levels of pyroptosis-related proteins(GSDME,NLRP1,NLRP3,HSPA1B, Caspase1)and CYP1B 1-AS1 mRNA were significantly downregulated(P<0.05). RIP assay confirmed the interaction between HSPA1B and CYP1B 1-AS1. Conclusion Allicin can mitigate the progression of DN by regulating the CYP1B 1-AS1/HSPA1B/ROS pathway,and alleviating oxidative stress damage and pyroptosis in renal tissues.
