大鼠肝前性门静脉高压症形成中一氧化氮和内皮素-1水平的动态变化

目的:观察大鼠肝前性门静脉高压症形成中一氧化氮(NO)和内皮素-1(ET-1)水平的动态变化,探讨其在门静脉高压症高动力循环中的作用。方法:以部分门静脉结扎(PVL)法复制肝前性门静脉高压症大鼠模型,分别用硝酸还原酶和放免法检测正常组、假手术(SO)组及PVL组术后不同时点的门静脉血浆NO^-₂/NO^-₃、ET-1水平,并同步监测血流动力学指标的动态变化。结果:PVL术后各时点NO^-₂/NO^-₃水平显著高于而ET-1水平显著低于正常组,同时伴有血流动力学的明显变化。结论:门静脉高压症大鼠存在高动力循环状态(HCS)。NO和ET-1参与HCS的形成和维持。

The dynamic changes of plasma nitric oxide and endothelin-1 in prehepatic portal hypertension rats

AIM: To observe the dynamic changes of plasma levels of nitric oxide(NO) and endothelin (ET-1) in portal veins of the rats during prehepatic portal hypertension, and investigate the role of them in hyperdynamic circulation. METHODS: The models of prehepatic portal hypertension were established in Sprague-Dawley rats by means of partial portal vein ligation (PVL). The plasma levels of nitrite/nitrate (NO - 2/NO - 3) and ET-1 in the portal veins were detected by the method of nitric reductase and radioimmunoassay, respectively. In this study, rats were divided into normal, sham operation (SO) and PVL group. SO and PVL rats were divided into several subgroups according to different time after operations. Meanwhile, the changes of several hemodynamic indexes in these rats were also measured. RESULTS: The levels of NO - 2/NO - 3 were significantly increased and ET-1 were significantly decreased in rats at different time after PVL compared with normal control, whereas the hemodynamic indexes changed accordingly. CONCLUSION: The portal hypertensive rats are in hyperdynamic circulatory state (HCS). NO and ET-1 may play an important role in the induction and maintenance of HCS.
