Is Triptolide Helpful For PKD Patients

Triptolide is an ingredient in Thunder God Vine which has been used for more than 400 years in traditional Chinese Medicine to treat conditions such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis, etc. Well then, is Triptolide helpful for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients?

Normal kidney tubule cells have a built in switch for regulating their growth-two proteins, PKD1 and PKD 2. PKD is caused by a mutation in the PKD1 or PKD 2 gene causing the cell to miss the “stop growing” signal, allowing them to keep growing, and thus causing a cyst.

Our research shows that Triptolide, an active ingredient of the TCM Lei Gong Teng, markedly decreases cyst formation of this most common genetic lethal kidney disease. Our results offer a novel therapeutic effect to this deadly disease and highlight the potential of TCM as pharmaceutical sources.

Additionally, we also create a new and advanced treatment on the basis of TCM. It is Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. Different illness conditions have different herbal formula. All the medicines come from nature. This therapy is used externally, which can avoid the damage to gastrointestinal tract and prevent the efficacy of medicines losing. So this therapy is considered as a natural treatment for kidney cyst and PKD.

Patients just need to lie on bed to take this therapy. With the help of osmosis device, the active ingredients can come to kidney lesion directly. The medicines have the functions of increasing the permeability of cystic wall, expanding blood vessels, promoting blood circulation, decreasing lining cells’ activity to secrete cystic fluid and changing the inner and outer pressure difference of cystic wall. In this way, the cystic fluid can be reabsorbed and finally removed out of the body with urine.

What’s more, if we choose the medicines which have the functions of anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, relieving ischemia and anoxic state in kidney, providing nutrients for damaged kidneys and promoting DNA replication of damaged kidney inherent cells, kidney damage can be repaired gradually and kidney function can be improved as well.
