AIM: To investigate the protective effects of ischemic post-conditioning on the expression of early growth response factor 1 (Egr-1) and interleukin-1β(IL-1β) in ischemia-reperfusion injured lung in rats. METHODS: The model of lung ischemia-reperfusion injury was established in 24 rats and the rats were randomly allocated to 3 different groups (n=8 in each group): (1) sham group: only sham operation (thoracotomy) and no ischemia for 3 h; (2)ischemia-reperfusion group (I/R group): interruption of pulmonary perfusion and ventilation for 1 h followed by reperfusion for 2 h; (3) ischemic post-conditioning group (IPostC group): ischemic post-conditioning (5 min of reperfusion and 5 min of ischemia for 3 times) between the end of ischemia and the beginning of the reperfusion followed by reperfusion for 1.5 h. The lung tissues (prepared to small pieces of about 20 mg) were collected and homogenized at the end of the experiment. The concentration of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in the homogenate was determined. The wet to dry weight ratio (W/D) of the lung tissues was also measured at the end of reperfusion. The pathological changes of the lung tissues were observed under light microscope after reperfusion. The mRNA expression of Egr-1 and IL-1β in the lung tissues was detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS: Compared with sham group, the mRNA expression of Egr-1 and IL-1β, the levels of MPO and W/D were significantly increased in I/R group (P<0.05). The inflammatory responses of the lungs in I/R group were significantly severer than those in sham group. Compared with I/R group, the mRNA expression of Egr-1 and IL-1β, the levels of MPO and W/D in IPostC group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The inflammatory responses of the lungs in IPostC group were also significantly attenuated. CONCLUSION: Ischemic post-conditioning significantly reduces ischemic reperfusion injury of the lung by inhibiting the expression of Egr-1 and IL-1β.  相似文献

AIM: To determine the effect of Radix Angelicae Sinensis(RAS) on renal ischemia/reperfusion injury in rabbits and to explore its mechanism. METHODS: Twenty-five rabbits were divided randomly into the sham operated group(Control group), renal ischemia/reperfusion injury group(IR group) and RAS+IR group. At the time point of reperfusion 48 h after renal ischemia 1 h, the renal tissue were observed by electron-microscope and the contents of creatinine(Cr) in serum, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6)and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) in the renal tissue were measured. RESULTS: A remarkably degenerative changes in renal tissue were showed under electronmicroscope in IR group, but the changes in RAS+IR group were slight. The contents of Cr, TNF-α and IL-6 in IR group were higher than those in Control group, these parameters in RAS+IR group were lower than those in IR group, the difference between these groups was significant(P< 0.05 or P< 0.01). At the same time, the content of bFGF in IR group was lower than that in Control group(P< 0.01), while the content of bFGF in RAS+IR group was higher than that in IR group(P< 0.01) and Control group(P< 0.05). CONCLUSION: RAS has an effect of alleviating the renal ischemia/reperfusion injury by modulating the production or release of TNF-α, IL-6 and bFGF.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of delayed ischemic preconditioning on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in mice and to study the role of hypoxia inducible factor 1α(HIF-1α). METHODS: Male C57/BL6N mice were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham operation group(sham), ischemia/reperfusion group(IR) and ischemic preconditioning group(IPC). Thirty-minute ischemia was induced by clamping renal bilateral pedicles followed by reperfusion in IR group. Fifteen-minute pre-ischemia was performed 4 days before IR in IPC group. Serum creatinine(Scr), blood urea nitrogen(BUN), kidney morphology and apoptosis were observed at different time points following reperfusion. The expression of HIF-1α in the renal tissues was evaluated by the methods of immunohistochemistry and Western blotting analysis. The mRNA expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and glucose transporter-1(Glut-1) was detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR.RESULTS: Compared with IR group at 24 h following reperfusion, acute tubulointerstitial injury was significantly relieved in IPC group. The levels of Scr and BUN, and apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells were also decreased in IPC group. Nuclear expression of HIF-1α was higher in IPC group than that in IR group. The mRNA expression of VEGF and Glut-1, the target genes of HIF-1, was also increased significantly in IPC group. CONCLUSION: Delayed ischemic preconditioning attenuates both morphologic and functional injuries induced by renal ischemia/reperfusion. This protective effect may be related to the increased expression of hypoxia inducible factor.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of IL-10 on IL-1β-induced prostaglandin E2(PGE2) release and cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) expression in human mesangial cells and to examine whether IL-10 has effect on the biological function of IL-1β.METHODS: The PGE2 concentration in supernatants of HMC was measured by radioimmunoassay. The COX-2 mRNA and protein were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. RESULTS: PGE2 and COX-2 were significantly increased after treatment with IL-1β(P＜0.01 for both) in cultured human mesangial cells. IL-10 had no effects on basical production of COX-2 and PGE2(P＞0.05, respectively), while it inhibited IL-1β-elicited PGE2 production, as well as COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in a concentration-dependent fashion. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that IL-10 depressed the IL-1β-induced release of PGE2 and expression of COX-2. These data suggested that IL-10 could exert anti-inflammatory actions at several levels, not only by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines but also by suppressing their biological function.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of ethane 1,2-dimethanesulfonate (EDS) preconditioning on renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. METHODS: Male SD rats (n=48) were randomly assigned to 6 groups: blank, sham, I/R, EDS+I/R, EDS+testosterone (TST)+I/R, and castration (Cast)+I/R. The renal pedicles were bilaterally occluded with a microvascular clamp for 45 min to establish renal I/R-induced injury model. Bilateral orchiectomy was conducted 2 weeks before surgery. EDS (75 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected 5 d before operation. Blood samples were collected 24 h after reperfusion from the vena orbitalis posterior plexus. Luteinizing hormone (LH), TST, serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) were detected. The renal tissues were harvested to measure the level of TNF-α and the expression of Fas mRNA and caspase-3 protein. RESULTS: Serum TST levels in EDS+I/R group and Cast+I/R group were below the minimum detectable threshold. Compared with other groups, the rats in EDS+I/R group and Cast+I/R group had higher levels of SCr, BUN and KIM-1 (P<0.05). SCr and BUN levels showed no significant difference between EDS+I/R group and Cast+I/R group (P>0.05), but KIM-1 level in EDS+I/R group was lower than that in Cast+I/R group (P<0.05). After reperfusion for 24 h, the levels of TST and LH in EDS+I/R group, Cast+I/R group and EDS+TST+I/R group were lower than those 1 h before operation (P<0.05). Compared with Cast+I/R and I/R group, the TNF-α level and expression of Fas mRNA and caspase-3 protein were significantly decreased in EDS+I/R group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: EDS preconditioning substantially reduces the serum TST level, thus attenuating I/R-induced acute renal injury. TNF-α-induced Fas/FasL pathway may be involved in this process.  相似文献

AIM: To explore whether IL-1β inhibits the oligodendrocyte precursor cell (OPCs) differentiation and affects axonal myelination. METHODS: One-day-old SD rats were randomly divided into control group and LPS group (48 rats in each group). The rats in LPS group were intraperitoneally injected with 1 mg/kg LPS. The rats in control group were injected with an equal volume of PBS. The rats in each group were further divided into 3 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d, 14 d and 28 d subgroups after injection. The expression of IL-1β and IL-1R1 in the rat corpus callosum at 3 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d was determined by double immunofluorescence and Western blotting. The myelin basic protein(MBP) expression in the rat corpus callosum at 14 d, 28 d after injection was also measured. In vitro, primary OPCs culture was performed and divided into control group, 30 μg/L IL-1β group, 30 μg/L IL-1β+IL-1Ra group and 30 μg/L IL-1Ra group. The expression of MBP in the OPCs induced differentiation for 3 d was observed by double immunofluorescence and Western blotting. RESULTS: The expression of IL-1β and IL-1R1 in the rat corpus callosum at 3 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d after LPS injection was obviously increased and the expression of MBP in the rat corpus callosum at 14 d, 28 d in LPS group was obviously decreased compared with control group in vivo. The level of MBP was significantly decreased after IL-1β treatment for 3 d in vitro. However, IL-1Ra (IL-1R inhibitor) reversed the down-regulation of MBP expression. IL-1β inhibited the expression of p-ERK, ERK over-expression reversed the down-regulation of MBP expression compared with IL-1β group. CONCLUSION: IL-1β inhibits the differentiation of OPCs, which may be involved in ERK pathways, thus leading to axonal hypomyelination in the corpus callosum of septic neonatal rats.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the mechanism of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) promoting the transformation of naïve T cells into Th22 cells and the correlation of its peripheral blood expression in non-small cell lung cancer patients. METHODS:CD4+ naïve T cell magnetic bead sorting kit was used to isolate the peripheral blood mononuclear T cells from healthy people. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and IL-2 were added to promote differentiation and proliferation. IL-1β was used to induce differentiation into Th22 cells. The proportion of CD4+ IL-22+ T cells was analyzed by flow cytometry, and the expression of IL-22 was detected by ELISA. We selected 60 cases of non-small cell lung cancer patients in our hospital, including 18 in I phase, 20 in Ⅱ phase, 13 in Ⅲ phase and 9 in IV phase, as well as 25 healthy persons. The proportion of Th22 (CD4+ IL-22+) cells in peripheral blood was detected by flow cytometry, and the serum levels of IL-1β and IL-22 were measured by ELISA. RESULTS:IL-1β induced the transformation of naïve T cells into Th22 cells and promoted the secretion of IL-22 (P<0.05). The proportion of Th22 cells and the IL-22 and IL-1β levels in peripheral blood of the patients with non-small cell lung cancer were higher than those in healthy subjects, and correlated with the clinical stage. CONCLUSION:IL-1β induces the differentiation of Th22 cells and the expression of IL-22. The levels of IL-1β and IL-22 are related to the progression of non-small cell lung cancer, which may be involved in immunosuppression and promote the occurrence of non-small cell lung cancer.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of calprotectin(CALP) in the rats with renal ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI). METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation and IRI group(n=25 in each group). Blood samples and the kidneys were obtained at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after reperfusion. The pathological changes of the kidneys were observed. The serum concentrations of blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and serum creatinine(SCr) were measured. The serum levels of CALP, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-6(IL-6) were detected by ELISA, and the expression of CALP, Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4) and NF-κB p65 in the renal tissues were determined by the methods of immunohistochemistry and Western blot. RESULTS: Different serial ischemia changes were observed in the renal tissues, mainly in the renal tubular epithelial cells and the mesenchyma, with the infiltration of inflammatory cells. The serum levels of BUN, SCr, CALP, TNF-α and IL-6 in IRI group were markedly increased as compared with sham group(P<0.05). The protein expression of CALP, TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in the renal tubular epithelial cells in IRI group was greatly enhanced in comparison with that in sham group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The serum concentrations of CALP, TNF-α and IL-6, and the protein expression levels of CALP, TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in the renal tissue are significantly increased in the rats with IRI, suggesting that calprotectin plays an important role in the inflammation in rats with IRI.  相似文献

AIM:To observe the effect of pretreatment with external trigeminal nerve electrostimulation (eTNS) on behavioral changes and the expression of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and 　tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in hippocampus of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-treated rats. METHODS:The rats were randomly divided into control group, PTZ group and eTNS group, and kindled by PTZ after administered 7 d, 14 d and 28 d of consecutive fake electrostimulation or eTNS. Subsequently, the severity and duration of seizure were quantitatively evaluated. The concentrations of IL-1β and TNF-α in hippocampus were detected by the methods of ELISA and immunohistochemisty. RESULTS:Compared with PTZ group, treatment with eTNS significantly inhibited the severity and duration of seizure (P<0.05), and significantly reduced the content of IL-1β and TNF-α in the hippocampus after status epilepticus (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION:Pretreatment with eTNS may provide a new approach for prevention and treatment of epileptogenesis.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the role of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 1 (NLRP1) inflammasome in atorvastatin-induced reduction of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) releases from the THP-1 macrophages. METHODS: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 10 μg/L) was used to trigger the secretion of IL-1β and IL-18 in the THP-1 macrophages. The cells were incubated with different concentrations of atorvastatin (1, 10 and 20 μmol/L) for 24 h, or treated with 10 μmol/L atorvastatin for different time (12 h, 24 h and 48 h). NLRP1 siRNA was transfected into the THP-1 cells. The mRNA expression of NLRP1 inflammasome was detected by RT-PCR. The protein expression of NLRP1 inflammasome was determined by Western blot. The secretion of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18 was quantified by ELISA. RESULTS: Atorvastatin inhibited the mRNA and protein expression of NLRP1 inflammasome in the THP-1 macrophages in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Transfection of NLRP1 siRNA significantly decreased the protein expression of NLRP1 and promoted the suppressive effect of atorvastatin on IL-1β and IL-18 secretion in the THP-1 macrophages. CONCLUSION: Atorvastatin inhibits the production of IL-1β and IL-18 in the macrophages through decreasing NLRP1 inflammasome expression, possibly contributing to the anti-inflammatory effect of atorvastatin on atherosclerosis.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the mechanism of myocardium protection after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by preconditioning with ischemia in human. METHODS: Thirty-six patients underwent valve replacement were divided into ischemic preconditioning group (IP group, 20 cases) and non-ischemic preconditioning group (control group, 16 cases) according to whether they were given single cycle reperfusion before cardioplegia or not. Serum levels of interleukin-8 and 10 were measured with ELISA. Expressions of myocardial Bcl-2 and caspase-3 were analyzed. RESULTS: The inflammatory factors IL-8 and IL-10 increased to the highest level in serum at 6 h after declamping and recovered to normal level on 5 d after declamping. On 6 h, 1 d and 2 d after declamping, serum level of IL-8 was significantly lower in IP group than that in control group (P<0.05), but serum level of IL-10 was higher in IP group (P<0.05). Expression of myocardial Bcl-2 and caspase-3 increased in both groups after reperfusion, and Bcl-2 was lower in the control group than that in IP group while the level of caspase-3 was higher (P<0.05). Expression of myocardial Bcl-2 had positive correlation with IL-10 and negative correlation with IL-8. CONCLUSION: Ischemic preconditioning has the effect of protection of human myocardial cells after ischemia/reperfusion injury through decreasing systemic inflammatory response following ischemia reperfusion injury.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the protective effect of lactulose preconditioning on intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in rats. METHODS: Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham operation group, IR group and IR plus lactulose preconditioning group. Lactulose was intragastrically administered in lactulose group 7 days prior to operation, and the equal volume of saline was administered in the other 2 groups. The intestinal IR injury was induced in IR group and IR+lactulose group using bulldog clamps on superior mesenteric artery by 30 min of ischemia followed by 60 min of reperfusion. Following reperfusion, the serum samples were collected for estimating the levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and IL-1β. Segments of terminal jejunum were rapidly fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, and HE staining was applied to assess the histopathology. Apoptosis in intestinal epithelium was determined by the technique of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL). The samples of terminal jejunum were also taken for measuring malondialdehyde,superoxide dismutase and the expression of cleaved caspase-3. RESULTS: Lactulose preconditioning significantly attenuated the severity of intestinal IR injury, with inhibition of IR-induced apoptosis. Moreover, lactulose preconditioning significantly limited the release of cytokines and lipid oxidation. CONCLUSION: Lactulose preconditioning has a protective effect on intestinal ischemia reperfusion by inhibiting IR-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the protective effect of 1, 3-dicyclopentyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyrimidine-4, 5-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (ZL-5015) on lethal endotoxin-challenged mice and to explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS: Mouse model of lethal endotoxin challenge and endotoxemia were established by intraperitoneal administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at a dose of 70 mg/kg to the C57BL/6J mice. Mouse peritoneal macrophages stimulated with LPS (10 mg/L) were used as an in vitro inflammatory model. The levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-10 (IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Real-time PCR was used to evaluate the mRNA expression of the cytokines. RESULTS: Prophylactic treatment of the mice with ZL-5015 (100 and 200 mg/kg, ig) slightly increased the survival rate, extended the survival time, decreased the serum levels of IL-1β and TNF-α, and increased the serum level of IL-10 in the early stage of endotoxemia as compared with model group. The results of in vitro study demonstrated that treatment of the endotoxin-stimulated mouse peritoneal macrophages with ZL-5015 (10, 20 and 40 μmol/L) inhibited the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α at both mRNA and protein levels but promoted the expression of IL-10 at both mRNA and protein levels. CONCLUSION: The tetrahydropyrimidine derivative ZL-5015 shows a moderate anti-endotoxin effect by increasing the survival rate and extending the survival time of the mice challenged by endotoxin, which may result from inhibition of the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β and TNF-α, and promotion of the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on hemorrhagic shock/resuscitation (HS/R)-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) in rats, and to explore the possible mechanisms. METHODS: Wistar rats (n=32) were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=8):normal saline control group (NS group), dexmedetomidine group (D group), HS/R group and HS/R+D group. The animals were sacrificed at 6 h after resuscitation. The levels of serum creatinine (Cr) and blood urine nitrogen (BUN) were examined. The kidneys of all rats were removed for evaluation of histological characteristics, and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured. The expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) was determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with NS group, the levels of Cr, BUN, MDA, TNF-α and IL-1β were obviously increased in HS/R group, which were obviously decreased in HS/R+D group (P<0.05). Compared with NS group, the SOD activity was obviously decreased in HS/R group, which was obviously increased in HS/R+D group (P<0.05). Compared with NS group, the protein expression of NF-κB was obviously increased in HS/R group, which was obviously decreased in HS/R+D group (P<0.05). Compared with NS group, the protein expression of HO-1 was increased in HS/R group. Compared with HS/R group, the protein expression of HO-1 was obviously increased in HS/R+D group. Compared with NS group, HS/R induced marked kidney histological injury, which was less pronounced in HS/R+D group.CONCLUSION: Dexmedetomidine effectively protects rats against AKI caused by HS/R, and its mechanism may be associated with the increase in HO-1 expression and the inhibition of NF-κB expression.  相似文献
