Influence of myrcene on inflammation,matrix accumulation in the kidney tissues of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat

There is only limited literature studies on the activities of inflammation and matrix accumulation in the renal tissues of rats induced with diabetes through Streptozotocin. The present the investigation involves the examination of the protective actions of Myrcene (MYN), a monoterpene on the oxidative stress, inflammation, and matrix accumulation. For this purpose an experimental setup was created which involves injecting MYN 50 mg/kg for about 45 days in the STZ diabetic rats. Modifications in the enzymes, collagens, growth factor B₁ and Kappa factor P65 were identified and tracked. The levels of the inflammatory markers like TF-α1, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, MCP-1 were tracked and noted. The current experimental results showed an alteration in the glucose metabolism and enhanced condition. Also an increased level of TGF-β-1 and Nuclear factor-kB expression was seen in the renal tissues. MYN was found to reduce glucose oxidative stress and exhibit an anti-inflammatory effect via inhibiting NF-kB signalling. The conclusion of the current study reveals that MYN regulates the inflammatory activities and matrix accumulation by inhibiting the activities of inflammatory cytokine, pro-inflammatory signalling.
