Renal protective effects of Alpinate Oxyphyllae Fructus and mesenchymal stem cells co-treatment against D- galactose induced renal deterioration.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Age-related structural and functional changes in the kidney can eventually lead to development of chronic kidney disease, which is one of the leading causes of mortality among elderly people. For effective management of age-related kidney complications, it is important to identify new therapeutic interventions with minimal side-effects. The present study was designed to evaluate the synergistic effect of a traditional Chinese herb, Alpinate Oxyphyllae Fructus (AOF), and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) in ameliorating D-galactose (D-gal)-induced renal aging phenotypes in WKY rats. The study findings showed that D-gal-induced alteration in the kidney morphology was partly recovered by the AOF and ADMSC co-treatment. Moreover, the AOF and ADMSC co-treatment reduced the expression of proinflammatory mediators (NFkB, IL-6, and Cox2) and increased the expression of redox regulators (Nrf2 and HO-1) in the kidney, which were otherwise augmented by the D-gal treatment. Regarding kidney cell death, the AOF and ADMSC co-treatment was found to abolish the proapoptotic effects of D-gal by downregulating Bax and Bad expressions and inhibiting caspase 3 activation. Taken together, the study findings indicate that the AOF and ADMSC co-treatment protect the kidney from D-gal-induced aging by reducing cellular inflammation and oxidative stress and inhibiting renal cell death. This study can open up a new path toward developing novel therapeutic interventions using both AOF and ADMSC to effectively manage age-related renal deterioration.
