Abstract: | AIM:To explore the effect of intervention for mast cell function before reperfusion on intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-induced early liver injury. METHODS:Adult SD rats (n=35) were randomized into 5 groups with 7 rats each: sham operation group (S group), IR group, cromolyn sodium treatment group (IR+C group, 25 mg/kg), ketotifen treatment group (IR+K group, 1 mg/kg), compound 48/80 treatment group (IR+CP group, 0.75 mg/kg). IR was induced by superior mesenteric artery occlusion for 75 min followed by 4 h of reperfusion. The agents were intravenously administered 5 min before reperfusion. The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and histamine, and the liver levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-8 (IL-8), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were assessed. The liver histopathologic changes were also evaluated. RESULTS:IR resulted in severe liver injury as demonstrated by great increases in injury scores, concomitant significant increases in serum levels of AST, ALT and histamine, and liver levels of LDH, TNF-α, IL-8, and MDA, accompanied by reduced SOD activity (all P<0.05 vs S group). Treatment with cromolyn sodium or ketotifen markedly alleviated IR-mediated liver injury as confirmed by significant reduction of the above biomedical changes, whereas compound 48/80 further aggravated liver injury by dramatically enhancing the biomedical changes (all P<0.05 vs IR group). CONCLUSION:Inhibition of mast cell function before reperfusion may reduce early liver injury induced by intestinal ischemia reperfusion. Histamine, oxidative stress and inflammatory response may provide promising effects on it. |
