Methods The disease was induced by injecting L-arginine (350 mg/100 g; i.p.). The control animals, animals injected with L-arginine, and animals pre-treated with allopurinol were included in this study. Serum and routine pathohistological analysis were conducted to confirm the induction of AP. The metabolic activity and adherence capacity of wBMC were evaluated in the MTT assay and methylene-blue test, respectively, and the alterations in pancreatic tissue and BM were examined on histological sections. In addition, immunohistochemical expression of β-catenin was assessed in the pancreatic tissue. Results The wBMC adherence capacity and their total number significantly increased after AP induction. The adherence capability of wBMC was reduced in rats pre-treated with allopurinol. There were no statistically significant changes in the metabolic activity of wBMCs. In the BM isolated from AP and allopurinol pre-treated animals, a discrete left shift in granulocytopoiesis was found, with a slight increase in the myeloid-to-erythroid ratio. Conclusions After AP induction, it was shown that wBMCs expressed increased adherence capacity and unchanged metabolic activity, while the alterations in BM may reflect the general activation of myelopoiesis, which would agree with the increased mobilization of mesenchymal stem cells. Also, a significant decrease in β-catenin expression in the pancreatic tissue was noticed.","PeriodicalId":11913,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Inflammation","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135643366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although kinin B1 receptor (B1R) is involved in both pathologies, its role in platelet function and thrombosis remains unknown. This study investigates the expression, the inflammatory, and pro-thrombotic effects of B1R in a model of septic shock in diabetic rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were made diabetic with streptozotocin (STZ) (65 mg/kg, i.p.). Four days later, control and STZ-diabetic rats were injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (2 mg/kg, i.p.) or the vehicle. B1R antagonist (SSR240612, 10 mg/kg by gavage) was given either acutely (12 and 24 h prior to endpoint analysis) or daily for up to 7 days. Moreover, a 7-day treatment was given either with cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor (niflumic acid, 5 mg/kg, i.p.), non-selective COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitor (indomethacin, 10 mg/kg, i.p.), non-selective nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor (L-NAME, 50 mg/kg by gavage), iNOS inhibitor (1400W, 5 mg/kg, i.p.), or heparin (100 IU/kg, s.c.). The following endpoints were measured: edema and vascular permeability (Evans blue dye), B1R expression (qRT-PCR, western blot, flow cytometry), aggregation in platelet-rich plasma (optical aggregometry), and organ damage (histology). Rats treated with STZ, LPS, and STZ plus LPS showed significant increases in edema and vascular permeability (heart, kidney, lung, and liver) and increased expression of B1R in heart and kidney (mRNA) and platelets (protein). Lethal septic shock induced by LPS was enhanced in STZ-diabetic rats and was associated with lung and kidney damage, including platelet micro-aggregate formation. SSR240612 prevented all these abnormalities as well as STZ-induced hyperglycemia and LPS-induced hyperthermia. Similarly to SSR240612, blockade of iNOS and COX-2 improved survival. Data provide the first evidence that kinin B1R plays a primary role in lethal thrombosis in a rat model of septic shock in diabetes. Pharmacological rescue was made possible with B1R antagonism or by inhibition of iNOS and COX-2, which may act as downstream mechanisms.</p>","PeriodicalId":11913,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Inflammation","volume":"13 1","pages":"40-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2015-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1721727X15577736","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"34039619","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a constituent of cruciferous vegetables, possesses anti-inflammatory properties; however, its effects on intestinal inflammation have yet to be evaluated. To test the hypothesis that I3C dampens intestinal inflammation, C57Bl/6 mice were treated with I3C and exposed to 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) to induce colitis. Several parameters of disease severity and inflammation were subsequently evaluated. I3C dampened the disease severity, as indicated by decreased body weight loss and decreased severity of clinical signs. Interestingly, this effect was observed in female but not male mice, which displayed a trend towards exacerbated colitis. Differential effects were observed in the profiles of cytokine production, as the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines was increased in males. The sex-specific effect of I3C in TNBS-induced colitis is a novel finding and warrants further investigation since this is a common dietary compound and is also available commercially.</p>","PeriodicalId":11913,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Inflammation","volume":"10 3","pages":"335-346"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1721727x1201000309","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38557667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
