Fucoxanthin alleviates renal aging by regulating the oxidative stress process and the inflammatory response in vitro and in vivo models

Objectives Many countries in the world are entering society with an aging population. The kidney is one of the most sensitive organs in the body to aging. Kidney function gradually declines with aging. Renal aging is one of the main triggers of CDK. Therefore, many researchers in the field are looki...

description Objectives Many countries in the world are entering society with an aging population. The kidney is one of the most sensitive organs in the body to aging. Kidney function gradually declines with aging. Renal aging is one of the main triggers of CDK. Therefore, many researchers in the field are looking for natural, green and healthy anti-renal-aging bioactive molecules.Methods and Results Western-blot, ELISA and indirect immunofluorescence were performed to evaluate the biological activity of fucoxanthin against renal aging in vitro and in vivo models. First, in the in vitro model, we evaluated the effect of fucoxanthin on renal cell senescence. We found that fucoxanthin could alleviate the kidney cell senescence caused by H2O2 by detecting a series of senescence markers. In the in vivo model, the experimental results showed that fucoxanthin could alleviate the aging of the kidney by Sa-β-gal staining and detection of aging-related marker molecules. Furthermore, we also found that fucoxanthin could alleviate kidney fibrosis.Conclusions In this study, our results showed that fucoxanthin was able to alleviate renal aging in vivo and in vitro models, suggesting that fucoxanthin could be a functional food to treat and relieve kidney aging.
