Microsurgical procedures such as free tissue transfer or replantations of amputated digits involve an obligatory ischemic period leading to regional tissue oedema, rhabdomyolysis, systemic acidosis, hypercalcemia and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome reflecting ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Since nitroxide stable radicals act as antioxidants their potential protective effects were tested. Anaesthetized Sabra rats were subjected to regional ischemia of the hind limb for 2 h using a tourniquet. Upon reperfusion rats were injected with 4-OH-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TPL). Systemic I/R-induced damage was assessed by sampling blood for differential count, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) serum levels. Regional injury was evaluated by analysing excised muscle samples for oedema (tissue water content) and inflammatory infiltrate (number of cell nuclei in histomorphometric analysis). I/R-induced changes of biomarkers reflecting systemic damage peaked about 8 h following the start of reperfusion and fully disappeared as the biomarkers relaxed to their pre-ischemic values after 24 h. TPL facilitated the recovery of some of these parameters and partially affected release of cellular CPK and LDH. The parameters of I/R-induced regional tissue injury did not demonstrate any recovery and were not inhibited by TPL. 相似文献

AIM: Oxytocin was previously shown to have anti-inflammatory effects in different inflammation models. The major objective of the present study was to evaluate the protective role of oxytocin (OT) in protecting the kidney against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male Wistar albino rats (250-300 g) were unilaterally nephrectomized, and subjected to 45 min of renal pedicle occlusion followed by 6 h of reperfusion. OT (1 mg/kg, ip) or vehicle was administered 15 min prior to ischemia and was repeated immediately before the reperfusion period. At the end of the reperfusion period, rats were decapitated and kidney samples were taken for histological examination or determination of malondialdehyde (MDA), an end product of lipid peroxidation; glutathione (GSH), a key antioxidant; and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, an index of tissue neutrophil infiltration. Creatinine and urea concentrations in blood were measured for the evaluation of renal function, while TNF-alpha and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were determined to evaluate generalized tissue damage. Formation of reactive oxygen species in renal tissue samples was monitored by chemiluminescence technique using luminol and lucigenin probes. RESULTS: The results revealed that I/R injury increased (p<0.01-0.001) serum urea, creatinine, TNF-alpha and LDH levels, as well as MDA, MPO and reactive oxygen radical levels in the renal tissue, while decreasing renal GSH content. However, alterations in these biochemical and histopathological indices due to I/R injury were attenuated by OT treatment (p<0.05-0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Since OT administration improved renal function and microscopic damage, along with the alleviation of oxidant tissue responses, it appears that oxytocin protects renal tissue against I/R-induced oxidative damage. 相似文献

Endotoxin shock can induce the production of several inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, leading to multiple organ dysfunction and death. Erythropoietin (EPO) has been found to interact with its receptor (EPO-R), expressed in a wide variety of non-hematopoietic tissues, to induce a range of pleiotropic cytoprotective actions. We investigated the effects of low doses of EPO (300 U/kg, intravenous administration) on the physiopathology and cytokine levels in endotoxin shock in conscious rats. Endotoxin shock was induced by intravenous injection of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (20 mg/kg) in conscious rats. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were continuously monitored for 48 h after LPS administration. Levels of biochemical and cytokine parameters, including glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cre), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and creatine phosphokinase (CPK) were measured at 0, 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, and 48 h after sepsis. Serum TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β level was measured at 1 h after sepsis. Endotoxin shock significantly increased blood GOT, GPT, BUN, Cre, LDH, CPK, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β levels, and HR, while it decreased MAP. EPO further increased the markers of organ injury (GOT, GPT, BUN, Cre, LDH, and CPK), inflammatory biomarkers (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) and did not affect MAP and HR after LPS. EPO disserved endotoxin shock-induced liver, kidney, lung, and small intestine damage in conscious rats. In conclusion, pre-treatment with low doses of EPO increased the release of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, along with aggravating endotoxin shock-induced markers of organ injury in conscious rats. 相似文献

Aim
SB-710411 is a rat selective urotensin-II (U-II) receptor antagonist, which can block U-II-induced contraction of the aorta and inhibit U-II-induced myocardial fibrosis in rats. However, the effect of SB-710411 on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is unclear. The present study was designed to investigate whether SB-710411 has a protective effect on myocardial I/R injury in rats and the possible mechanisms.Methods and Results
Myocardial I/R injury was induced by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. Hemodynamic parameters, electrocardiogram (ECG), infarct size, histological alteration, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase-MB (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), RhoA, and the protein expressions of U-II receptor (UTR), ROCK1 and ROCK2 were evaluated. Cardiac I/R injury significantly up-regulated the expressions of UTR, ROCK1 and ROCK2 proteins in rat myocardium. SB-710411 1.0 and 2.0 μg/kg significantly reduced cardiac I/R-induced the infarct size and histological damage in rat myocardium, markedly inhibited the changes of hemodynamic parameters and the increases of ST-segment in ECG, the serum LDH and CK-MB activities and cTnI level in rats subjected to myocardial I/R injury. Furthermore, SB-710411 obviously prevented myocardial I/R-increased RhoA activity and UTR, ROCK1 and ROCK2 protein expressions.Conclusions
Our results indicate that cardiac I/R injury increases myocardial UTR expression, and SB-710411 has a potent protective effect on myocardial I/R injury in rats. The cardioprotection may be associated with the inhibition of UTR-RhoA/ROCK pathway. 相似文献5.

The Ca2+-activated protease calpain has been shown to play a deleterious role in the heart during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). We tested the hypothesis that exercise training would minimize I/R-induced calpain activation and provide cardioprotection against I/R-induced injury. Hearts from adult male rats were isolated in a working heart preparation, and myocardial injury was induced with 25 min of global ischemia followed by 45 min of reperfusion. In sedentary control rats, I/R significantly increased calpain activity and impaired cardiac performance (cardiac work during reperfusion = 24% of baseline). Compared with sedentary animals, exercise training prevented the I/R-induced rise in calpain activity and improved cardiac work (recovery = 80% of baseline). Similar to exercise, pharmacological inhibition of calpain activity resulted in comparable cardioprotection against I/R injury (recovery = 86% of baseline). The exercise-induced protection against I/R-induced calpain activation was not due to altered myocardial protein levels of calpain or calpastatin. However, exercise training was associated with increased myocardial antioxidant enzyme activity (Mn-SOD, catalase) and a reduction in oxidative stress. Importantly, exercise training also prevented the I/R-induced degradation of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA)2a. These findings suggest that increases in endogenous antioxidants may diminish the free radical-mediated damage and/or degradation of Ca2+ handling proteins (such as SERCA2a) typically observed after I/R. In conclusion, these results support the concept that calpain activation is an important component of I/R-induced injury and that exercise training provides cardioprotection against I/R injury, at least in part, by attenuating I/R-induced calpain activation. 相似文献

Natural Abs have been implicated in initiating mesenteric ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced tissue injury. Autoantibodies have affinity and self-Ag recognition patterns similar to natural Abs. We considered that autoimmunity-prone mice that express high titers of autoantibodies should have enhanced I/R-induced injury. Five-month-old B6.MRL/lpr mice displayed accelerated and enhanced intestinal I/R-induced damage compared with 2-mo-old B6.MRL/lpr and age-matched C57BL/6 mice. Similarly, older autoimmune mice had accelerated remote organ (lung) damage. Infusion of serum IgG derived from 5-mo-old but not 2-mo-old B6.MRL/lpr into I/R resistant Rag-1-/- mice rendered them susceptible to local and remote organ injury. Injection of monoclonal IgG anti-DNA and anti-histone Abs into Rag-1-/- mice effectively reconstituted tissue injury. These data show that like natural Abs, autoantibodies, such as anti-dsDNA and anti-histone Abs, can instigate I/R injury and suggest that they are involved in the development of tissue damage in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. 相似文献

We previously reported that nitric oxide (NO) derived from endothelial NO synthase (NOS) increased endothelial prostacyclin (PGI(2)) production in rats subjected to hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). The present study was undertaken to determine whether neutrophil elastase (NE) decreases endothelial production of PGI(2), thereby contributing to the development of I/R-induced liver injury by decreasing hepatic tissue blood flow in rats. Hepatic tissue levels of 6-keto-PGF(1alpha), a stable metabolite of PGI(2), were transiently increased and peaked at 1 h after reperfusion, followed by a gradual decrease until 3 h after reperfusion. Sivelestat sodium hydrochloride and L-658,758, two NE inhibitors, reduced I/R-induced liver injury. These substances inhibited the decreases in hepatic tissue levels of 6-keto-PGF(1alpha) at 2 and 3 h after reperfusion but did not affect the levels at 1 h after reperfusion. These NE inhibitors significantly increased hepatic tissue blood flow from 1 to 3 h after reperfusion. Both hepatic I/R-induced increases in the accumulation of neutrophils and the microvascular permeability were inhibited by these two NE inhibitors. Protective effects induced by the two NE inhibitors were completely reversed by pretreatment with nitro-l-arginine methyl ester, an inhibitor of NOS, or indomethacin. Administration of iloprost, a stable derivative of PGI(2), produced effects similar to those induced by NE inhibitors. These observations strongly suggest that NE might play a critical role in the development of I/R-induced liver injury by decreasing endothelial production of NO and PGI(2), leading to a decrease in hepatic tissue blood flow resulting from inhibition of vasodilation and induction of activated neutrophil-induced microvascular injury. 相似文献

There is little information about the hepatoprotective effects of gallic acid against ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) damage. Animals were subjected to I/R. Gallic acid at doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight (bw) were injected as a single dose prior to ischemia. Liver tissue homogenates were used for the measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels. At the same time alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were assayed in serum samples and compared statistically. While the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels were significantly increased, CAT and GPx activities significantly decreased in only I/R-induced control rats compared to normal control rats (P < 0.05). Treatment with gallic acid at a dose of 100 mg/kg bw significantly decreased the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels, and markedly increased activities of CAT and GPx in tissue homogenates compared to I/R-induced rats with no treatment group (P < 0.05). In oxidative stress generated by hepatic ischemia–reperfusion, gallic acid contributes partially an alteration in the delicate balance between the scavenging capacity of antioxidant defense systems and free radicals in favour of the antioxidant defense systems in the body. 相似文献

Little is known about the effective role of Hypericum perforatum on hepatic ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Hence, albino rats were subjected to 45 min of hepatic ischemia followed by 60 min of reperfusion period. Hypericum perforatum extract (HPE) at the dose of 50 mg/kg body weight (HPE50) was intraperitonally injected as a single dose, 15 min prior to ischemia. Rats were sacrificed at the end of reperfusion period and then, biochemical investigations were made in serum and liver tissue. Liver tissue homogenates were used for the measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels. At the same time alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were assayed in serum samples and compared statistically. While the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels were significantly increased, CAT and GPx activities significantly decreased in only I/R-induced control rats compared to normal control rats (p < 0.05). Treatment with HPE50 significantly decreased the ALT, AST, LDH activities and MDA levels, and markedly increased activities of CAT and GPx in tissue homogenates compared to I/R-induced rats without treatment–control group (p < 0.05). In oxidative stress generated by hepatic ischemia–reperfusion, H. perforatum L. as an antioxidant agent contributes an alteration in the delicate balance between the scavenging capacity of antioxidant defence systems and free radicals in favour of the antioxidant defence systems in the body. 相似文献

Cordyceps sinensis (CS) is an entomogenous fungus used as a tonic food and Chinese medicine to replenish health. This study investigated the protective effects of CS in rats post-renal ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) sequence by analyzing the influence on stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α and chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) expressions and senescence during recovery. Chemokine SDF-1 [now called chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 12 (CXCL12)] and its receptor CXCR4 are crucial in kidney repair after ischemic acute renal failure. CS treatment significantly alleviated I/R-induced renal damage assessed by creatinine levels (p < 0.05) and abated renal tubular damages assessed by periodic acid-Schiff with diastase (PASD) staining. CS induced early SDF-1α expression and increased CXCR4 expression 1–6 h post-reperfusion. Histology studies have revealed that CS induced SDF-1α in squamous cells of Bowman’s capsule, mesangial cells, distal convoluted tubules (DCT), and proximal convoluted tubules (PCT). CS also improved renal repair in I/R-induced injury by increasing Ki-67 staining. I/R induced renal senescence after 3 and 6 h of reperfusion. However, CS alleviated I/R-induced senescence at early stage (1 and 3 h). We conclude that CS protects against I/R injury via the SDF-1/CXCR4-signaling axis and alleviates senescence. 相似文献

The molecular mechanism underlying the selective vulnerability of neurons to oxidative damage caused by ischemia—reperfusion (I/R) injury remains unknown. We sought to determine the role of NADPH oxidase 1 (Nox1) in cerebral I/R-induced brain injury and survival of newborn cells in the ischemic injured region. Male Wistar rats were subjected to 90 min middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by reperfusion. After reperfusion, infarction size, level of superoxide and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-2dG), and Nox1 immunoreactivity were determined. RNAi-mediated knockdown of Nox1 was used to investigate the role of Nox1 in I/R-induced oxidative damage, neuronal death, motor function recovery, and ischemic neurogenesis. After I/R, Nox1 expression and 8-oxo-2dG immunoreactivity was increased in cortical neurons of the peri-infarct regions. Both infarction size and neuronal death in I/R injury were significantly reduced by adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated transduction of Nox1 short hairpin RNA (shRNA). AAV-mediated Nox1 knockdown enhanced functional recovery after MCAO. The level of survival and differentiation of newborn cells in the peri-infarct regions were increased by Nox1 inhibition. Our data suggest that Nox-1 may be responsible for oxidative damage to DNA, subsequent cortical neuronal degeneration, functional recovery, and regulation of ischemic neurogenesis in the peri-infarct regions after stroke. 相似文献

In this study, we investigated the effects of isorhamnetin on myocardial ischaemia reperfusion (I/R) injury in Langendorff-perfused rat hearts. Isorhamnetin treatment (5, 10 and 20 μg/mL) significantly alleviated cardiac morphological injury, reduced myocardial infarct size, decreased the levels of marker enzymes (LDH and CK) and improved the haemodynamic parameters, reflected by the elevated levels of the left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), coronary flow (CF) and the maximum up/down velocity of left ventricular pressure (+dp/dtmax). Moreover, isorhamnetin reperfusion inhibited apoptosis of cardiomyocytes in the rats subjected to cardiac I/R in a dose-dependent manner concomitant with decreased protein expression of Bax and cleaved-caspase-3, as well as increased protein expression of Bcl-2. In addition, I/R-induced oxidative stress was manifestly mitigated by isorhamnetin treatment, as showed by the decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) level and increased antioxidant enzymes activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). These results indicated that isorhamnetin exerts a protective effect against I/R-induced myocardial injury through the attenuation of apoptosis and oxidative stress. 相似文献

Aminoguanidine is an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), with high selectivity for the inducible isoform (iNOS). In addition to being an inhibitor of NOS, aminoguanidine also exhibits antioxidant activity. Recent studies suggest that aminoguanidine reduces ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced damage. However, the role of aminoguanidine, in renal injury associated with I/R remains unknown. This study was designed to investigate the effects of aminoguanidine on renal I/R injury. There were three groups of eight rats each. I/R was induced by occlusion of the left renal vessels for 60 min, followed by 24 h reperfusion in rats. Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, a stable metabolite of the free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation cascade, were found to be significantly higher in the I/R group (30.3 +/- 0.1 nmol g(-1) tissue) than in the control group (10 +/- 0.05 nmol g(-1)). Aminoguanidine (100 mg kg(-1)) administration to rats significantly reduced the MDA values. We also demonstrated that I/R leads to structural change but aminoguanidine did not reverse this change. Aminoguanidine, according to the biochemical finding is protective but histopathological findings did not reveal protection against I/R injury in kidney. The effects of aminoguanidine on I/R-induced damage remain a subject for future investigations. 相似文献

Therapeutic and/or preventive interventions using phytochemical constituents for ischemic heart disease have gained considerable attention worldwide, mainly due to their antioxidant activity. This study investigated the cardioprotective effect and possible mechanism of juglone, a major constituent of the walnut tree, using an isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial infarction (MI) model in rats. Rats were pretreated for five (5) days with juglone (1, 3 mg/kg, i.p) and atenolol (1 mg/kg, i.p) in separate experiments before inducing myocardial injury by administration of ISO (80 mg/kg, s.c) at an interval of 24 h for 2 consecutive days (4th and 5th day). The cardioprotective effect of juglone was confirmed through a lead II electrocardiograph (ECG), cardiac biomarkers (cTnI, CPK, CK-MB, LDH, ALT and AST) and histopathological study. The results of our present study suggest that prior administration of juglone (1 and 3 mg/kg) proved to be effective as a cardioprotective therapeutic agent in reducing the extent of myocardial damage (induced by ISO) by fortifying the myocardial cell membrane, preventing elevated T-waves, deep Q-waves in the ECG, heart to body weight ratio, infarction and also by normalizing cardiac marker enzymes (cTnI, CPK, CK-MB, LDH, ALT and AST) and histopathological changes, such as inflammation, edema and necrosis. In conclusion, this study has identified phytochemical constituents, in particular juglone, as a potential cardioprotective agent. 相似文献

Ischemia-reperfusion-induced (I/R) renal damage is a pathogenic process that starts with ischemia, then progresses through oxidative stress and inflammation. Tocilizumab (TCZ), a recombinant human monoclonal antibody produced against the IL-6 receptor, will be tested against renal I/R injury. TCZ is known to lower the levels of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidant mediators while raising the amounts of antioxidant molecules. Our purpose is to evaluate the biochemical and histological effects of TCZ against I/R-induced oxido-inflammatory kidney damage and dysfunction in rats. Animals were divided into 3 groups as renal I/R (RIR), I/R+ TCZ (IRT), and healthy group (HG). TCZ was administered at a dose of 8 mg/kg to the IRT group (n=6) of the animals, and distilled water as a solvent was administered intraperitoneally (ip) to the RIR (n=6) and HG (n=6) groups. Then, two hours of ischemia and six hours of reperfusion were applied to the left kidneys of IRT and RIR animals. TCZ significantly inhibited the increase in the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), nuclear kappa B (NF-κB), tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 1-β (IL-1β), IL-6, creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and decrease in total glutathione (tGSH) with I/R in renal tissue. TCZ also attenuated severe histopathological damage due to I/R in renal tissue. TCZ protected renal tissue from I/R-induced oxidative and inflammatory damage. These results indicate that TCZ may be useful in the treatment of renal I/R injury. 相似文献

Late protective effect of pharmacological preconditioning with total flavones of rhododendra against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of total flavones of rhododendra (TFR) pharmacological preconditioning against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and its probable mechanisms in rats. Rat myocardial I/R injury was induced by ligating and untying the left anterior descending coronary artery. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized and the chests were opened. All animals were subjected to 30 min of occlusion and 1 h of reperfusion. Twenty-four hours before the 30-minute occlusion, rats received 3 cycles of 5 min intravenous perfusion of TFR (10, 20, 40 mg/kg) or morphine hydrochloride (0.3 mg/kg) or normal saline interspersed with drug-free periods. Changes in the ST segment of ECG, the content of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), malondialdehyde (MDA), and nitric oxide (NO), and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase (CK), and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in serum were measured. Infarct size (IS), as a percentage of the area at risk (AAR), was determined by TTC staining. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA in rat myocardium was detected by RT-PCR and the expression of iNOS protein was detected by Western blot. Pretreatment with TFR (10, 20, 40 mg/kg) markedly inhibited I/R-induced ST segment elevation of ECG. TFR (20, 40 mg/kg) pretreatment decreased I/R-induced IS/AAR, markedly inhibited the increase of MDA content and the activity of CK and LDH, and also significantly inhibited the decline of NO content and the activity of NOS and SOD in serum. TFR (40 mg/kg) preconditioning significantly inhibited the increase of serum cTnI induced by I/R injury and increased the expression of iNOS both at mRNA and protein levels in rat myocardium. Our findings indicate that TFR preconditioning has a protective effect against myocardial I/R injury in rats. The cardioprotection involves the stimulation of NO release and the inhibition of lipid peroxidation. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to demonstrate the role of curcumin on oxidative stress, cell proliferation and apoptosis in the
rat intestinal mucosa after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). A total of 30 male Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups:
sham, I/R and I/R+ curcumin; each group contain 10 animals. Sham group animals underwent laparotomy without I/R injury. After
I/R groups animals underwent laparotomy, 1 h of superior mesenteric artery ligation were followed by 1 h of reperfusion. In
the curcumin group, 3 days before I/R, curcumin (100 mg/kg) was administered by gastric gavage. All animals were sacrificed
at the end of reperfusion and intestinal tissues samples were obtained for biochemical and histopathological investigation
in all groups. Curcumin treatment significantly decreased the elevated tissue malondialdehyde levels and increased of reduced
superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase enzyme activities in intestinal tissues samples. I/R caused severe histopathological
injury including mucosal erosions and villous congestion and hemorrhage. Curcumin treatment significantly attenuated the severity
of intestinal I/R injury, with inhibiting of I/R-induced apoptosis and cell proliferation. These results suggest that curcumin
treatment has a protective effect against intestinal damage induced by intestinal I/R. This protective effect is possibly
due to its ability to inhibit I/R-induced oxidative stress, apoptosis and cell proliferation. 相似文献

Various mechanisms have been proposed for the pathogenesis of postischemic hepatic injury, including the generation of reactive oxygen metabolites. Oxytocin (OT) possesses antisecretory, antiulcer effects, facilitates wound healing and has anti-inflammatory properties. Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-injury was induced by inflow occlusion to median and left liver lobes ( approximately 70%) for 30 min of ischemia followed by 1h reperfusion in female Sprague-Dawley rats under anesthesia. I/R group (n=8) was administered intraperitoneally either OT (500 microg/kg) or saline at 24 and 12 h before I/R and immediately before reperfusion. Sham-operated group that underwent laparotomy without hepatic ischemia served as the control. Rats were decapitated at the end of reperfusion period. Hepatic samples were obtained for the measurement of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH) and collagen levels and histopathological analysis. Tumor necrosis factor-alfa (TNF-alpha) and transaminases (SGOT, SGPT) were assayed in serum samples. I/R injury caused significant increases in hepatic microscopic damage scores, MPO activity, collagen levels, transaminase, serum TNF-alpha levels. Oxytocin treatment significantly reversed the I/R-induced elevations in serum transaminase and TNF-alpha levels and in hepatic MPO and collagen levels, and reduced the hepatic damage scores. OT treatment had tendency to abolish I/R-induced increase in MDA levels, while GSH levels were not altered. These results suggest that OT has a protective role in hepatic I/R injury and its protective effect in the liver appears to be dependent on its inhibitory effect on neutrophil infiltration. 相似文献

significantly reduced serum creatinine levels, serum TNF-α and IL-1β levels as well as tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity,
compared with I/R controls. Moreover, ApoA-I treatment suppresses the expression of intercellular adhesion molecules-1 (ICAM-1)
and P-selectin on endothelium, thus diminishing neutrophil adherence and the subsequent tissue injury. These results showed
that ApoA-I reduced I/R-induced inflammatory responses, decreased renal microscopic damage and improved renal function. It
seems likely that ApoA-I protects kidney from I/R injury by inhibiting inflammatory cytokines release and neutrophil infiltration
and activation. 相似文献
