抗氧化剂抑制内毒素性休克大鼠诱导型一氧化氮合酶基因表达

感染性休克时循环机能障碍的显著特点表现为进行性、顽固性低血压,伴对血管活性药物敏感性降低,以至组织器官灌注不足、重要器官机能代谢障碍,病死率仍高达30％～70％。休克时循环机能障碍所涉及的病理生理机制极其复杂,脂质过氧化物的堆积和NO的爆发生成是其中的关键病理因素之一。我们以往的研究中发现抗氧化剂能部分逆转内毒素休克大鼠的血管低反应性,为了进一步探讨其治疗学机制,本实验对抗氧化剂在内毒素性休克大鼠iNOS mRNA表达中的作用进行了观察。

Differential nitric oxide synthase expression during hepatic ischemia-reperfusion

BACKGROUND: In recent years the important role of nitric oxide in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury has been increasingly recognised. The prevailing consensus is that reperfusion injury may be partly the result of decreased production of nitric oxide from endothelial nitric oxide synthase and excessive production of nitric oxide from the inducible isoform. We therefore undertook this study to characterize the expression of different nitric oxide synthase isoforms during hepatic reperfusion. METHODS: Male Wistar rats (n = 6) were subjected to 45 minutes of partial hepatic ischemia (left lateral and median lobes) followed by 6 hours of reperfusion. Control animals (n = 6) were subjected to sham laparotomy. The expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthase was examined using immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Liver sections were also stained with nitrotyrosine antibody, a specific marker of protein damage induced by peroxynitrite (a highly reactive free radical formed from nitric oxide). RESULTS: Liver sections from all the control animals showed normal expression of the endothelial isoform and no expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase. Livers from all the animals subjected to hepatic ischemia showed decreased expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase, and all but one animal from this group showed expression of the inducible isoform both in inflammatory cells and in hepatocytes. Western blotting confirmed these findings. Staining with the antinitrotyrosine antibody was also confined to five liver sections from animals subjected to hepatic ischemia. CONCLUSIONS: During the reperfusion period after hepatic ischemia, endothelial nitric oxide synthase is downregulated while inducible nitric oxide synthase is expressed in both hepatocytes and inflammatory cells. The presence of nitrotyrosine in livers subjected to hepatic ischemia-reperfusion suggests that the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase plays an important role in mediating reperfusion injury in this model.

Inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase prevents shock wave therapy induced renal injury

Objectives: Shock wave lithotripsy treatment (SWT) is not completely free from side effects; one of the accused mechanisms for renal injury during SWT is oxygen- and nitrogen-derived free radical productions. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the effect of inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production by N-[3(aminomethyl) benzyl) acetamidine] (1400W), highly selective inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor, at SWT-induced kidney damage. Materials and methods: Twenty-four rats those underwent right nephrectomy procedure were divided equally into three groups as control, SWT, and SWT?+?1400W. 1400W was administered at a dose of 10?mg/kg at 2?h prior to SWT procedure and at the beginning of SWT procedure via intraperitoneal route and continued daily for consecutive 3 days. At the end of the fourth day, animals were killed via decapitation and trunk blood and the left kidneys were taken for biochemical and histopathologic evaluation. Results: SWT caused renal tubular damage and increased lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme activities and SWT also significantly increased nitro-oxidative products. Inhibition of iNOS via administration of 1400W ameliorated renal injury and decreased tissue lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde), superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and nitrite/nitrate levels (NO_x). In addition, it was seen that histolopathological changes were attenuated in the SWT?+?1400W group when compared to SWT group. Conclusion: SWT-induced renal injury might be due to excessive production of oxygen free radicals and NO production. Inhibition of iNOS attenuates renal injury following SWT treatment. It can be concluded that iNOS inhibitors or peroxynitrite scavengers might be used to protect the kidneys against SWT-induced morphological and functional injuries.     

一氧化氮、诱导性一氧化氮合酶在实验性大鼠腹主动脉瘤中的作用

目的:探讨一氧化氮(NO)和诱导性一氧化氮合酶(iNOS)在实验性大鼠腹主动脉瘤形成中的作用和机制.方法:建立大鼠腹主动脉瘤灌注模型,对照组予以生理盐水腹主动脉灌注,余下予以猪胰弹性蛋白酶灌注制作腹主动脉瘤模型,并分为实验组(术后腹腔注射生理盐水)、药物组(术后腹腔注射氨基胍),观察各组大鼠血清NO、腹主动脉瘤壁组织学和基质金属蛋白酶-9(MMP-9)、iNOS的变化.结果:生理盐水灌注组大鼠术前术后血清NO无明显变化,iNOS、MMP-9表达弱阳性或阴性,动脉壁炎性细胞浸润轻、弹性蛋白降解少;实验组血清NO显著升高,iNOS及MMP-9表达强阳性,炎性细胞浸润重、弹性蛋白几乎完全降解;应用氨基胍后iNOS变化不明显,而NO显著降低,MMP-9表达显著减弱,炎性细胞浸润和弹性蛋白降解明显减轻.结论:iNOS、MMP-9的表达和血清NO水平在实验组均显著升高.iNOS及其合成的NO能促进腹主动脉壁炎性细胞的浸润、中膜基质的降解和MMPs的表达,从而导致了腹主动脉瘤的生成.     

内毒素休克时氨基胍选择性抑制诱导型一氧化氮合成酶的作用

目的:观察选择性诱导型NO合成酶抑制剂氮基胍对内毒素休克犬血流动力学的影响。方法:成年杂种犬40只.随机分成五组:Ⅰ组为单纯注射内毒素组。Ⅱ、Ⅲ、Ⅳ组为内毒素处理组,分别注射左旋精氨酸(L-arginine300mg/kg)、N-硝基左旋精氨酸(N-nitrio-L-arginine,L-NNA20mg/kg)和氨基胍(aminoguanidine30mg/kg),Ⅴ组为对照组。观察对比内毒素前后血流动力学变化,并计算氧供、氧耗和血管外肺水(EVLW)的含量。结果:与Ⅰ组相比,左旋精氨酸有明显降低PVRI、增加CI、SI(P<0.05)的作用;氨基胍未引起明显升压效应,血流动力学变化与左旋精氨酸组相似,而L-NNA却使SVRI、PVRI明显增加(P<0.05),CI下降,EVLW增多(P<0.05),氧供减少。结论:一氧化氮(NO)在内毒素休克早期对心肺功能以保护作用为主;非选择性抑制NO的生成会加重休克程度,维持机体一定量NO或应用选择性诱导性NO合成酶制剂对治疗休克可能是有利的。

Altered inducible nitric oxide synthase expression and nitric oxide production in the bladder of cats with feline interstitial cystitis

PURPOSE: Alterations in nitric oxide (NO) levels have been demonstrated in some humans with interstitial cystitis (IC) as well as in chemically induced animal models of cystitis. Thus, in the current study we investigated whether inducible NO synthase (iNOS) mediated NO production is altered in the bladder of cats with a naturally occurring model of IC termed feline IC (FIC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined iNOS expression using Western immunoblotting and baseline NO production using an NO microsensor from smooth muscle and mucosal bladder strips in 9 healthy cats and 6 diagnosed with FIC. RESULTS: There was a significant increase in baseline NO production in cats with FIC compared with that in healthy cats in smooth muscle and mucosal strips. This production was not ablated in the absence of extracellular Ca (100 microM egtazic acid) or following incubation with the calmodulin antagonist trifluoroperazine (20 microM), indicating iNOS mediated Ca independent NO production. Release was significantly decreased following incubation with the NOS antagonist L-NAME (N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester) (100 microM). Furthermore, immunoblotting revealed a trend toward increased iNOS expression in smooth muscle and mucosal strips from FIC cats but not from healthy cats. CONCLUSIONS: In light of previous findings that the barrier property of the urothelial surface is disrupted in FIC and iNOS mediated increase in NO alters barrier function in other types of epithelium our findings suggest that iNOS dependent NO production may have a role in epithelial barrier dysfunction in FIC.

Role of inducible nitric oxide synthase in pig liver transplantation

BACKGROUND: Previously, we clarified the role of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and the protective effect of an iNOS inhibitor in warm ischemia and reperfusion model. In this study, we investigated whether the same effects would be obtained by iNOS inhibitor in liver transplantation model. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Orthotopic liver transplantation was performed in pigs in the usual manner after about 6 h of cold preservation in University of Wisconsin solution. Aminoguanidine hemisulfate (AG) was used as the iNOS inhibitor and AG was administered intraportally at the dose of 10 mg/kg just after reperfusion. Two experimental groups were subjected, control group (n = 10), and AG group (n = 10). We investigated changes of serum nitrite/nitrate (NOx) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). Expression of iNOS was examined by immunohistochemistry, including a double immunofluorescnce technique in combination with cofocal laser scanning microscopy. RESULTS: Serum NOx and AST were significantly lower in the AG group. Histological hepatic damage and thrombocyte thrombi were attenuated in the AG group. Expression of iNOS was recognized strongly at Kupffer cells and neutrophils in the centrilobular region of liver after reperfusion by cofocal laser scanning microscopy. Moreover, iNOS staining was attenuated in AG group compared with control group. CONCLUSIONS: These results indicate that hepatic ischemia and reperfusion injury in liver transplantation might be triggered by iNOS expression of Kupffer cells and neutrophils, and attenuated by administration of an iNOS inhibitor. Moreover, AG showed down regulation of iNOS expression after reperfusion.
