Studies have shown that active hepatocellular function is depressed after hemorrhagic shock, despite crystalloid resuscitation. It is also known that calcium antagonists produce various beneficial effects on cell and organ function after ischemia and shock. However, it remains unknown whether such agents have any salutary effects on the depressed active hepatocellular function and hepatic blood flow in a nonheparinized model of trauma and hemorrhage. To study this, rats underwent a midline laparotomy (trauma-induced) and were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of the maximum bleedout was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate. They were then resuscitated with four times the volume of shed blood with Ringer's lactate over 60 minutes, during and after which diltiazem (400 micrograms/kg body weight) was infused intravenously over 95 minutes. Active hepatocellular function (Vmax and Km) was determined with an in vivo indocyanine green clearance technique. Effective hepatic blood flow (EHBF) was determined by Fick principle and corrected by the indocyanine green extraction ratio. Hepatic microvascular blood flow (HMBF) was measured by laser Doppler flowmetry. Results indicate that Vmax, Km, EHBF, and HMBF decreased significantly at 1.5 and 4 hours after resuscitation. Diltiazem infusion restored the depressed Vmax, Km, EHBF, and HMBF and prevented the occurrence of hepatic edema. Thus, diltiazem may be a useful adjunct in the treatment of trauma and severe hemorrhage even in the absence of blood resuscitation.  相似文献

Although ATP-MgCl2 improves hepatocellular function in a nonheparinized model of trauma-hemorrhage and crystalloid resuscitation, it remains unknown whether the beneficial effects of this agent are due to downregulation of the release of the inflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) under those conditions. To study this, rats underwent a 5-cm laparotomy (i.e., trauma induced) and were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of maximum bleedout volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate (RL). The animals were then resuscitated with four times the volume of shed blood with RL over 60 min. ATP-MgCl2 (50 mumoles/kg body weight each) or an equivalent volume of normal saline was infused intravenously for 95 min. This infusion was started during the last 15 min of RL resuscitation. Plasma levels of TNF and IL-6 were measured at 1.5 hr after the completion of resuscitation by cytokine-dependent cellular assays. Hepatic blood flow was determined by in vivo indocyanine green clearance (corrected by hepatic extraction ratio for indocyanine green), radioactive microspheres, and [3H]-galactose clearance techniques. The results indicate that the levels of circulating TNF and IL-6 increased significantly in the hemorrhaged-resuscitated animals. ATP-MgCl2 treatment, however, markedly decreased the synthesis and/or release of these cytokines to levels similar to the sham group. The markedly decreased hepatic blood flow (as determined by three different methods) and hepatic extraction ratio for indocyanine green were also restored by ATP-MgCl2 treatment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The liver is a major organ involved in multiple organ failure (MOF) following hemorrhage and trauma. However, it is not known if active hepatocellular membrane transport, measured by in vivo indocyanine green (ICG) clearance, is depressed after hemorrhage and if it persists after resuscitation. To study this, rats were bled to and maintained at a mean BP of 40 mm Hg until 40% of maximum bleedout (MB) volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate (RL). The rats were then resuscitated with 2X or 3X the volume of MB with RL and hepatocellular function was determined at various intervals. ICG, two to four doses (0.167-1.667 mg/kg BW), was given intravenously and [ICG] was continuously recorded without the need of blood sampling, using an in vivo hemoreflectometer with computer-assisted data acquisition. Initial velocity of clearance (V0) was calculated from [ICG] vs time (t) according to [ICG] = e (a + bt + ct 2), where eab is V0. Maximal velocity of clearance (Vmax) and Km, a kinetic constant representing the efficiency of the active transport process, were determined from the Lineweaver-Burk plot. The results indicate that Vmax decreased by 66% at MB and remained depressed despite fluid resuscitation. Km, decreased by 58% at MB, returned to prehemorrhage level after 3X RL but was not maintained and it decreased by 60% at 4 hr after resuscitation. This in vivo study demonstrates that active hepatocellular function is significantly depressed early after hemorrhage and persists despite resuscitation with RL and may form the basis of the MOF observed after severe and prolonged hemorrhage.  相似文献

Although Ringer's lactate (RL) is routinely used for resuscitation, it is not known whether this fluid alone restores and maintains the depressed cardiac output (CO) following severe hemorrhage. To study this, a fiberoptic catheter was inserted to the level of the aortic arch in rats. Following indocyanine green (0.05 mg) administration, CO was measured using an in vivo hemoreflectometer (IVH). The rats were then bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 40 mmHg until 40% of the shed blood volume was returned in the form of RL. They were resuscitated with 2, 3, or 4 times (X) the volume of the shed blood with RL and CO recorded at various intervals thereafter. The results indicate that CO decreased significantly during hemorrhage and remained depressed following resuscitation with 2 or 3X RL. CO was normal immediately after resuscitation with 4X RL, but it was not sustained and decreased significantly 0.5 to 8 hr postresuscitation. This was not due to the decreased hematocrit since acute hemodilution did not decrease CO. These results indicate that: (1) the progressive changes in CO following hemorrhage and resuscitation can be measured in rats by using IVH; (2) resuscitation with 4X RL restores total peripheral resistance to normal, but does not maintain CO, suggesting that pharmacological support may be needed under such conditions; (3) the lack of maintenance of CO following resuscitation may play an important role in the development of multiple organ failure after severe hemorrhage.  相似文献

BACKGROUND. The purpose of this study was to determine whether pentoxifylline administration restores the depressed hepatocellular function after trauma hemorrhage and crystalloid resuscitation and, if so, whether this is the result of the down-regulation of inflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). METHODS. After laparotomy rats were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of maximum shed blood volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate. They were then resuscitated with Ringer's lactate to four times the shed blood volume. Pentoxifylline (50 mg/kg body weight) or saline solution was infused intravenously for 95 minutes during and after resuscitation. One and a half hours and 4 hours after resuscitation, hepatocellular function (maximal velocity [Vmax] and the efficiency of the active transport [Km] of indocyanine green clearance) and plasma. TNF and IL-6 levels were determined with in vivo hemoreflectometer and cellular assays, respectively. RESULTS. Circulating TNF and IL-6 levels increased significantly after hemorrhage and resuscitation. Pentoxifylline treatment, however, markedly decreased the levels of these cytokines, and the values were similar to those of sham rats. The decreased Vmax and Km values were also restored by pentoxifylline treatment. Moreover, there was a significant correlation between Vmax and TNF or IL-6 levels. CONCLUSIONS. The down-regulation of inflammatory cytokines by pentoxifylline may be the mechanism by which this agent restores the depressed hepatocellular function after trauma hemorrhage and resuscitation.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether prolonged (chronic) resuscitation has any beneficial effects on cardiac output and hepatocellular function after trauma-hemorrhage and acute fluid replacement. BACKGROUND DATA: Acute fluid resuscitation after trauma-hemorrhage restores but does not maintain the depressed hepatocellular function and cardiac output. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent a 5-cm laparotomy (i.e., trauma was induced) and were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mmHg until 40% of maximal bleed-out volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate (RL). The animals were acutely resuscitated with RL using 4 times the volume of maximum bleed-out over 60 minutes, followed by chronic resuscitation of 0, 5, or 10 mL/kg/hr RL for 20 hours. Hepatocellular function was determined by an in vivo indocyanine green clearance technique. Hepatic microvascular blood flow was assessed by laser Doppler flowmetry. Plasma levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined by bioassay. RESULTS: Chronic resuscitation with 5 mL/kg/hr RL, but not with 0 or 10 mL/kg/hr RL, restored cardiac output, hepatocellular function, and hepatic microvascular blood flow at 20 hours after hemorrhage. The regimen above also reduced plasma IL-6 levels. CONCLUSION: Because chronic resuscitation with 5 mL/kg/hr RL after trauma-hemorrhage and acute fluid replacement restored hepatocellular function and hepatic microvascular blood flow and decreased plasma levels of IL-6, we propose that chronic fluid resuscitation in addition to acute fluid replacement should be routinely used in experimental studies of trauma-hemorrhage.  相似文献

Although hepatocellular dysfunction occurs early in sepsis despite fluid resuscitation, it is unknown if an increased volume of resuscitation protects hepatocellular function. To study this, rats were subjected to sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). These and sham-treated rats then received either 3 or 6 mL/100 g BW normal saline subcutaneously. Studies were performed at 5 hours (i.e., early sepsis) or 20 hours (late sepsis) after CLP. Hepatic blood flow was determined by radioactive microspheres, 3H-galactose clearance technique, and laser Doppler flowmetry in both groups. Active hepatocellular function (i.e., Vmax and Km) was assessed by an in vivo indocyanine green clearance technique. The results indicate that: (1) hepatic blood flow increased markedly in early sepsis; (2) Vmax and Km decreased significantly at 5 hours and 20 hours after CLP; and (3) the increased volume of fluid resuscitation did not improve the depressed active hepatocellular function 5 hours following CLP. Cardiac output and hepatic microcirculation, however, were significantly increased in early sepsis. These results confirm the notion that the depression in hepatocellular function in early sepsis is not the result of any reduction of hepatic perfusion. The dissociation of increased hepatic blood flow from depressed hepatocellular function remains despite the larger volume of resuscitation. The hepatocellular dysfunction that occurs even in early sepsis cannot be corrected simply by increasing the volume of crystalloid resuscitation.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether female sex steroids have any salutary effects on the depressed cardiovascular and hepatocellular functions following trauma and hemorrhage in male animals. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Studies indicate that gender difference exists in the immune and cardiovascular responses to trauma-hemorrhage, and that male sex steroids appear to be responsible for producing immune and organ dysfunction, but it remains unknown if female sex steroids produce any salutary effects on the depressed cellular and organ functions in males following trauma and hemorrhage. METHOD: Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent a midline laparotomy (i.e., trauma induction), and were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mmHg until 40% of the maximum bleed-out volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate (RL). Animals were then resuscitated with RL at 4 times the shed blood over 60 minutes. 17beta-estradiol (50 microg/kg) or an equal volume of vehicle was injected subcutaneously 15 minutes before the end of resuscitation. The maximal rate of ventricular pressure increase or decrease (+/-dP/dtmax), cardiac output, and hepatocellular function (i.e., maximal velocity and overall efficiency of in vivo indocyanine green clearance) were assessed at 24 hours after hemorrhage and resuscitation. Plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-6 were also measured. RESULTS: Left ventricular performance, cardiac output, and hepatocellular function decreased significantly at 24 hours after trauma-hemorrhage and resuscitation. Plasma levels of IL-6 were elevated. Administration of 17beta-estradiol significantly improved cardiac performance, cardiac output, and hepatocellular function, and attenuated the increase in plasma IL-6 levels. CONCLUSION: Administration of estrogen appears to be a useful adjunct for restoring cardiovascular and hepatocellular functions after trauma-hemorrhage in male rats.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Although depression in hepatocellular function occurs early after trauma and severe hemorrhage and persists despite fluid resuscitation, it remains unknown whether reactive oxygen species (ROS) play any role in the initiation of hepatocellular depression and damage under those conditions. We hypothesized that administration of a ROS scavenger at the beginning of resuscitation will attenuate organ injury after severe shock. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (275-325 g) underwent laparotomy (i.e., induction of soft tissue trauma) and were then bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of the maximal bleed-out volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate. The animals were then resuscitated with four times the volume of maximal bleed-out with RL over 60 minutes. The ROS scavenger 2-mercaptopropionyl glycine (30 mg/kg) or vehicle was administered intravenously as a bolus at the beginning of resuscitation. At 2 hours after the completion of crystalloid resuscitation or the equivalent interval after sham-operation, cardiac index was measured by a dye dilution technique. Hepatocellular function, i.e., the maximum velocity of indocyanine green clearance (Vmax) and the efficiency of the active transport (Km), was determined using an in vivo hemoreflectometer. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and alanine aminotransferase were determined with ELISA and colorimetrically, respectively. RESULTS: The results indicate that at 2 hours after trauma hemorrhage and resuscitation, cardiac index and hepatocellular function were markedly depressed with concomitantly increased serum levels of TNF-alpha and alanine aminotransferase (p < 0.05). Administration of 2-mercaptopropionyl glycine, however, restored the depressed cardiac and hepatic function and markedly attenuated liver enzyme release and serum levels of TNF-alpha (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that ROS play a role in producing the depression in organ functions after severe hemorrhagic shock. Thus, adjuncts that attenuate the detrimental effects of ROS may be useful for improving the depressed cardiac and hepatocellular functions after trauma hemorrhage and resuscitation.  相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: Administration of a single dose of progesterone following trauma and hemorrhage in progesterone-deficient rats would ameliorate the inflammatory response and hepatocellular damage. SETTING: A university laboratory. INTERVENTIONS: Ovariectomized female Sprague-Dawley rats (250-350 g; Charles River Laboratories, Wilmington, Mass) underwent a 5-cm midline laparotomy (ie, induction of soft tissue trauma), were bled to a mean arterial blood pressure of 35 mm Hg for about 90 minutes, and then were resuscitated using Ringer lactate solution. Progesterone (25 mg/kg of body weight) or vehicle was administered subcutaneously at the end of resuscitation. In additional animals, Kupffer cells were isolated following trauma, hemorrhage, and resuscitation and treated in vitro with progesterone, lipopolysaccharide, or both. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Six hours following resuscitation, plasma tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels and liver myeloperoxidase activity were determined. Hepatocellular function (maximum velocity of indocyanine green clearance [Vmax] and the efficiency of the active transport or Michaelis-Menten constant [Km]) and plasma levels of transaminases were measured 20 hours after resuscitation. Kupffer cell IL-6 and TNF-alpha production were assessed. RESULTS: Plasma levels of TNF-alpha, IL-6, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase, as well as hepatic myeloperoxidase activity were increased, whereas indocyanine green clearance was depressed in vehicle-treated rats following trauma-hemorrhage. Animals treated with progesterone showed significantly reduced levels of the TNF-alpha, IL-6, and transaminases as well as reduced myeloperoxidase activity in the liver. Progesterone-treated animals showed increased Vmax and Kmax values for indocyanine green. In vitro treatment of Kupffer cells with progesterone decreased TNF-alpha production but did not affect the production of IL-6. CONCLUSION: Progesterone administration following trauma-hemorrhage ameliorates the proinflammatory response and, subsequently, the hepatocellular injury via direct action on immunocompetent cells.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Although acute fluid replacement after trauma and severe hemorrhage remains the cornerstone in the management of trauma victims, it remains unknown whether continuous resuscitation after trauma-hemorrhage and acute fluid replacement produces salutary effects on cardiovascular function and reduces proinflammatory cytokine release. METHODS: Adult male rats underwent laparotomy (ie, soft tissue trauma) and were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of the shed blood volume was returned in the form of Ringer's lactate (RL). The animals were then resuscitated with 4 times the volume of shed blood with RL for 60 minutes, followed by continuous resuscitation with RL at 5 mL/h/kg for 48 hours after the acute fluid replacement. At 48 hours after hemorrhage, mean arterial pressure, cardiac output, and left ventricular contractility parameters, such as the maximal rates of ventricular pressure increase (+dP/dt(max)) and decrease (-dP/dt(max)), were determined. Microvascular blood flow in the intestine and kidney was assessed by laser Doppler flowmetry. In addition, plasma levels of TNF-alpha were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: The mean arterial pressure and cardiac output were decreased by 34% and 18%, respectively, at 48 hours after hemorrhage and acute resuscitation. Continuous resuscitation, however, markedly improved these parameters. Similarly, +dP/dt(max) and -dP/dt(max) decreased significantly after hemorrhage and acute fluid replacement but was restored to sham values after continuous resuscitation. Microvascular blood flow in the gut and kidneys was decreased after hemorrhage and acute resuscitation by 34% and 35%, respectively. However, intestinal and renal perfusion was maintained at the sham levels at 48 hours after continuous resuscitation. In addition, the upregulated TNF-alpha after acute resuscitation alone was reduced after continuous resuscitation. CONCLUSIONS: Continuous resuscitation after acute fluid replacement appears to be a useful approach for restoring and maintaining cardiovascular function and organ perfusion after trauma and severe hemorrhage.  相似文献

Studies have shown that active hepatocellular function is depressed early after trauma-hemorrhage and persists despite resuscitation with two or three times (x) the volume of maximum bleedout (MB) with lactated Ringer's solution (LR). However, it is not known if a larger volume of fluid resuscitation corrects this dysfunction. To study this, rats were bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of the MB volume was returned in the form of LR, and then resuscitated with 4x or 5x the volume of MB with LR. Three doses of indocyanine green (ICG) were given intravenously and [ICG] measured in vivo using an in-vivo hemoreflectometer. The initial velocity of the clearance of ICG was calculated. Maximal velocity of the clearance (Vmax: the number of functional ICG receptors) and kinetic constant (Km: the efficiency of the active transport) were determined from the Lineweaver-Burk plot. Vmax decreased during hemorrhage, was restored to control levels at 0-4 hours after resuscitation, but decreased at 4-8 hours after resuscitation despite restoration of cardiac output following resuscitation with 5x LR. This could be the result of increased TNF release. The Km also decreased during hemorrhage, but increased at 0-1.5 hours and remained at control levels even 4-8 hours after resuscitation. Thus the failure of Vmax to remain at control levels following adequate fluid resuscitation may form the basis of cellular dysfunction and multiple organ failure after severe hemorrhagic shock.  相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: The salutary effects of the testosterone receptor antagonist flutamide on the depressed immune and cardiovascular functions after hemorrhage and resuscitation are related to improved endothelial cell function, which can subsequently lead to an increase in organ blood flow, oxygen delivery, and tissue oxygen consumption. DESIGN, INTERVENTIONS, AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Male adult rats underwent a 5-cm midline laparotomy (ie, trauma) and were bled to and maintained at a mean systemic arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% maximal blood-out volume was returned in the form of Ringer lactate). The animals were then resuscitated with 4 times the total volume of shed blood with Ringer lactate for 60 minutes. Flutamide (25 mg/kg) or an equivalent volume of the vehicle propanediol was injected subcutaneously 15 minutes before the end of resuscitation. At 20 hours after resuscitation, aortic rings (approximately 2.5 mm in length) were isolated and mounted in an organ chamber. Dose responses for an endothelium-dependent vasodilator (acetylcholine chloride) and endothelium-independent vasodilator (nitroglycerine) were determined. Organ blood flow was measured using strontium 85-labeled microspheres. Total hemoglobin and oxygen content in the femoral artery and portal, hepatic, and renal veins were determined. Oxygen delivery and consumption in liver, small intestine, and kidneys were calculated. RESULTS: Administration of flutamide after trauma-hemorrhage attenuated the depressed endothelial function. Furthermore, flutamide treatment restored the reduced blood flow and oxygen delivery and consumption in all organs tested after trauma-hemorrhage and resuscitation. CONCLUSION: Flutamide appears to be a useful adjunct for improving vascular endothelial function and regional hemodynamics after trauma-hemorrhage and resuscitation.  相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: Rewarming the body to 37 degrees C during resuscitation following trauma-hemorrhage has salutary effects on cardiovascular and hepatocellular functions. DESIGN, INTERVENTIONS, AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Male rats underwent laparotomy (trauma induced) and were then bled to and maintained at a mean arterial pressure of 40 mm Hg until 40% of the maximum shed blood volume was returned in the form of Ringer lactate solution. Rats were exposed to ambient temperature and allowed to become hypothermic during hemorrhage. The animals were then resuscitated with 4 times the volume of shed blood with Ringer lactate solution for 60 minutes. In 1 group, the body temperature was rewarmed to 37 degrees C during resuscitation. In another group, the body temperature was maintained at hypothermia (32 degrees C) for 4 hours after resuscitation. In an additional group, the body temperature was kept at 37 degrees C during hemorrhage and resuscitation. At 4 hours after resuscitation, the rats were returned to a room with ambient temperature. Various in vivo heart performance variables (maximal rate of pressure increase and decrease), cardiac output, hepatocellular function, and plasma IL-6 level were determined at 24 hours after resuscitation. RESULTS: Either maintenance of normothermia during hemorrhage or prolonged hypothermia following resuscitation had deleterious effects on cardiovascular variables and hepatocellular function and up-regulated plasma IL-6 levels. In contrast, rewarming the body to 37 degrees C during resuscitation improved cardiac contractility, cardiac output, and hepatocellular function and reduced plasma IL-6 level. CONCLUSION: Since rewarming the body temperature to normothermia during resuscitation improved depressed cardiovascular and hepatocellular functions, this should be considered as a useful adjunct to fluid resuscitation after trauma-hemorrhage.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Traditional models of shock classify severity based on the volume of hemorrhage. Clinically, hemorrhage occurs at a variable rate, usually slowing as blood pressure drops; however most animal experimental models use a constant rate of hemorrhage. Our hypothesis was that rapid bleeding followed by slower bleeding using a fixed total volume would result in a greater physiologic insult. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Yorkshire pigs (S and S Farms, Ranchita, CA) underwent placement of jugular and femoral catheters after anesthesia. All animals were hemorrhaged a total of 30 mL/kg. The animals were divided into constant rate hemorrhage over 10 min (Constant-10) (3 mL/kg/min), constant rate hemorrhage over 20 min (Constant-20) (1.5 mL/kg/min), or a varying rate of hemorrhage of 2.15 mL/kg/min over 7 min, and then 1.15 mL/kg/min over the remaining 13 min (Physiologic-20). Shock, mean arterial pressure (MAP) < or = 20 mmHg, was maintained for 60 min. Resuscitation was performed with Ringer's lactate (RL) and shed blood (2:1 ratio), until shed blood was exhausted and then only RL to maintain a MAP > or =60 mmHg for 3 h. RESULTS: Physiologic-20 shock resulted in significantly increased maximal heart rate, peak serum lactate, and volume of required RL resuscitation. Adequacy of resuscitation was ensured by MAP, urine output, and clearance of serum lactate. CONCLUSIONS: A more physiologic method of fixed volume hemorrhagic shock results in a significantly increased physiologic response as demonstrated by increased volume of fluid resuscitation. This differential physiologic response may represent an improved hemorrhagic shock model, and could have implications for future hemorrhagic shock studies.  相似文献

Various beneficial effects of calcium channel blockers on cell and organ function following endotoxic shock, organ ischemia, and reperfusion have been reported; however, it is not known whether these agents have any salutary or deleterious effects on immune responses after low-flow conditions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine (a) the effect of hemorrhage on lymphocyte IL-2, IL-3, IL-6, and IFN-gamma synthesis, and (b) whether diltiazem has any salutary or adverse effects on these parameters when administered following hemorrhage and resuscitation. To study this, C3H/HeN mice were bled to a mean blood pressure of 35 mm Hg, maintained at that level for 60 min, and resuscitated with shed blood plus twice that volume of Ringer's lactate. Immediately following resuscitation mice received either diltiazem (2400, 800, or 400 micrograms/kg body wt), or an equivalent volume of saline. The mice were sacrificed 24 hr later, splenic lymphocytes were obtained, and their capacity to produce lymphokines was assessed. The results indicated that in the vehicle-treated animals, hemorrhage significantly decreased (P less than 0.05) IL-2, IL-3, IL-6, and IFN-gamma synthesis by 82 +/- 19%, 64 +/- 28%, 71 +/- 11%, and 86 +/- 14%, respectively. However, diltiazem (400 but not 2400 micrograms/kg) treatment after hemorrhage restored lymphocyte capacity to produce IL-2, IL-3, IL-6, and IFN-gamma (P less than 0.05). Additional groups of animals were subjected to sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture 3 days following hemorrhage.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

After determining that hepatic blood flow remains impaired after resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock, we used the angiotensin II receptor antagonist saralasin and pentoxifylline to investigate their respective effects on hepatic blood flow responses after resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock. Rats were bled to 50% of baseline blood pressure for 60 min and resuscitated with shed blood and an equal volume of lactated Ringer's solution. Saralasin [10 micrograms/kg per min (n = 6)], pentoxifylline [25 mg/kg bolus and 12.5 mg/kg per hr (n = 7)], or saline (n = 11) were started with the onset of resuscitation. Total hepatic blood flow measured by ultrasonic transit time flow meter, effective nutrient hepatic blood flow measured by galactose clearance, mean arterial pressure, and cardiac output were recorded at 15-min intervals for 2 hr after resuscitation. Hemorrhage decreased cardiac output 57% below baseline and decreased total hepatic blood flow 64% below baseline. Resuscitation restored cardiac output to baseline levels in all three groups. Despite restoration of cardiac output, total hepatic and effective hepatic blood flow remained significantly below baseline in the saline control and saralasin groups but was restored to baseline levels in the pentoxifylline group. These data indicate that angiotensin II does not contribute significantly to the hepatic blood flow impairment after resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock. Improvement in flow with pentoxifylline implies that hemorrhage and resuscitation impair hepatic microvascular hemorrheology and that addition of pentoxifylline to standard resuscitation corrects the impairment.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the in vivo effects of hypertonic saline (HTS) resuscitation on the interactions of endothelial cells (ECs) and polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) and vascular permeability after hemorrhagic shock. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The PMN has been implicated in the pathogenesis of EC damage and organ injury following hemorrhagic shock. Compared to Ringer's lactate (RL), HTS resuscitation diminishes PMN and EC adhesion molecule expression and organ sequestration of PMNs. METHODS: In a murine model of hemorrhagic shock (50 mmHg for 45 minutes followed by resuscitation) using intravital microscopy on cremaster muscle, the authors studied PMN-EC interactions and vascular leakage (epifluorescence after 50 mg/kg fluorescent albumin) in three resuscitation groups: HTS (shed blood + 4 cc/kg 7.5% HTS, n = 12), RL (shed blood + RL [2x shed blood volume], n = 12), and sham (no hemorrhage or resuscitation, n = 9). EC ICAM-1 expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Data, presented as mean +/- SEM, were evaluated by analysis of variance with Bonferroni correction. RESULTS: There were no differences between groups in flow mechanics. Compared to RL, HTS animals (t = 90 minutes) displayed diminished PMN rolling and PMN adhesion to EC at time intervals beyond t = 0. There were no differences between the sham and HTS groups. Vascular leakage was 45% lower in HTS than in RL-resuscitated animals. Cremaster EC ICAM-1 expression was similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: Using HTS instead of RL to resuscitate hemorrhagic shock diminishes vascular permeability in vivo by altering PMN-EC interactions. HTS could serve as a novel means of immunomodulation in hemorrhagic shock victims, potentially reducing PMN-mediated tissue injury.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Numerous publications have analysed the hemodynamic effects of "small volume resuscitation" during the initial phases of hemorrhagic shock. Nevertheless nowadays the information about microcirculatory effects are poor. The aim of this study was to estimate the change of tissue perfusion in hypovolemic rats, before and after infusion of Ringer's lactate (RL), hypertonic saline solution (HS) or blood. METHODS: Mesocecal microcirculation was visualized by intravital microscopy during 30 minutes of hemorrhagic hypovolemia (MAP, mean arterial pressure of 40 mmHg) and subsequent reinfusion period. Rats were resuscitated with RL (shed volume), HS (one-seventh of the shed volume), or blood (shed volume). The perfusion was estimated through speed of red blood cells. Moreover MAP, pH and B.E. was measured. RESULTS: Thirty minutes after hemorrhage a very important decrease of capillary flow was noticed and in lesser quantity, of the flow in arterioles and venules. The RL infusion did not cause measureable changes of microcirculatory blood flows. The HS infusion caused an improvement in the flow of arterioles and venules but not in capillaries. The blood infusion caused a progressive improvement in the flow of arterioles, venules and capillaries, however at slightly lower values than previous hemorrhage. CONCLUSIONS: Neither RL nor HS seem as efficient as blood to restore the microcirculatory blood flow in the mesocecum of the rats submitted to hemorrhagic hypovolemia.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Although flutamide (FTM), an androgen-receptor antagonist, normalizes the depressed immune and cardiac function in males after trauma hemorrhage (T-H), the mechanism responsible for its salutary effects remains unknown. We hypothesized that the salutary effects of FTM are mediated via upregulation of estrogen receptors (ERs). METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent T-H (laparotomy and 90 minutes of hemorrhage (35-40 mm Hg) and then resuscitated with 4x the volume of shed blood in the form of Ringer's lactate). FTM (25 mg/kg) or vehicle (propanediol) was injected subcutaneously 30 minutes before the end of resuscitation. At 2 hours after T-H or sham operation, cardiac output, stroke volume, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, +/- dp/dt, and total peripheral resistance were measured (n = 6 rats per group). Immediately after the measurement of cardiac function, cardiomyocytes were isolated, RNA was extracted, and expression of ER-alpha, ER-beta, and androgen-receptor (AR) mRNA in cardiomyocytes was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. ER-alpha, ER-beta, and AR protein levels in cardiomyocytes were also measured by Western blot analysis. RESULTS: The depressed cardiac output, stroke volume, and +/- dp/dt after T-H were significantly improved in the FTM-treated T-H group. Moreover, the decrease in expression of ER-alpha and ER-beta mRNA and protein in cardiomyocytes in the T-H group was prevented with FTM treatment after T-H. However, expression of cardiomyocytes AR mRNA and protein were not significantly different between the T-H or sham group with or without FTM treatment. CONCLUSIONS: These findings collectively suggest that, in addition to blockade of androgen receptors, flutamide-mediated ER upregulation is likely to play a role in mediating the salutary effect of flutamide on cardiac function after trauma hemorrhage.  相似文献
