Abstract
Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomized to 4 groups: Sham, surgically manipulated; IR, animals subjected to I/R; P4 Pre, animals treated with P4 30 minutes before I/R and P4 Post, treated immediately after flow reestablishment. I/R was induced by catheter 2F insufflation in the descending aorta, occluded for 30 min, followed by reperfusion for 2 h. Intestinal function, inflammatory and apoptosis markers, and mesenteric microcirculation were analyzed.
Results: Aortic occlusion led to systemic changes and intestinal homeostasis disruption. The I/R decreased the gastrointestinal transit (Sham 69%, IR 46%; P = 0.0014) and the progesterone reduced impact induced by I/R (IR 46%, P4 Post 60%; P = 0.0461). The treatment prevented the increase of epithelial mucosal barrier permeability and edema formation triggered by I/R (Sham 0.2770 ng/mL vs I/R 5.455 ng/mL; P = 0.0048) and (P4 Pre 2.027 ng/mL; P = 0.0393). It also reduced inflammatory cell infiltration to intestinal tissue (IR 0.5876 vs P4 Pre 0.1818; P = 0.0003 and P4 Post 0.1393 stained area/tissue area; P < 0.0001), modulating the release of inflammatory mediators and apoptosis markers (IR 0.1806 vs P4 Pre 0.0468; P = 0.0452).
Conclusion: Progesterone treatment was effective in modulating the neutrophil response and other inflammatory markers, decreased apoptosis, and improved gastrointestinal function triggered by I/R.
期刊介绍:
SHOCK®: Injury, Inflammation, and Sepsis: Laboratory and Clinical Approaches includes studies of novel therapeutic approaches, such as immunomodulation, gene therapy, nutrition, and others. The mission of the Journal is to foster and promote multidisciplinary studies, both experimental and clinical in nature, that critically examine the etiology, mechanisms and novel therapeutics of shock-related pathophysiological conditions. Its purpose is to excel as a vehicle for timely publication in the areas of basic and clinical studies of shock, trauma, sepsis, inflammation, ischemia, and related pathobiological states, with particular emphasis on the biologic mechanisms that determine the response to such injury. Making such information available will ultimately facilitate improved care of the traumatized or septic individual.
