  • Research advances of pyroptosis in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury

    ObjectiveTo summarize the research advances of pyroptosis in hepatic ischamia-reperfusion injury (IRI).MethodThe literatures about the studies of mechanism of pyroptosis in hepatic IRI were retrieved and analyzed.ResultsPyroptosis, also known as inflammatory necrocytosis, was proven to play an important role in the hepatic IRI. When hepatic ischemia-reperfusion occurred, the classical pathway of pyroptosis dependenting on caspase-1 and the non-classical pathway of pyroptosis dependenting on caspase-11 were initiated by specific stimulants, and leaded to the activation of gasdermin D, releases of proinflammatory factors such as interleukin-1β, interleukin-18, etc., and the recruitment and activation of neutrophils. Consequently, pyroptosis caused more severe hepatic inflammation and aggravated existing cell injury and dysfunction of liver during hepatic IRI.ConclusionsPyroptosis plays an important role in liver IRI. Further researches about mechanism of pyroptosis will be beneficial to the prevention and treatment of the pyroptosis of related diseases.

  • Postischemic treatment of namefene hydrochloride alleviates lung ischemia reperfusion injury by inhibiting TLR2/MyD88/NF- κB p65 inflammation pathway in rats

    Objective To study the mechanism of alleviating lung ischemia-reperfusion injury by postischemic treatment with namefene hydrochloride, and explore the optimal timing of drug treatment throughout the disease course. Methods A total of 60 rats were randomly divided into six groups with 10 rats in each group: a sham group, a model group, a nalmefene A (NA) group, a nalmefene B (NB) group, a nalmefene C (NC) group and a nalmefene D (ND) group. The sham group without drug treatment was not treated with ischemia-reperfusion. The lung ischemia-reperfusion model was established by occlusion of the left pulmonary hilum in the model group without drug treatment. After ischemic treatment, the NA, NB, NC and ND groups were respectively injected with nalmefene (15 μg/kg) by the tail vein at 5 min before, 10 min, 30 min and 60 min after pulmonary circulation reperfusion. At the 3rd hour after reperfusion, all rats were sacrificed and the specimens from the upper lobe of the left lung tissue were preserved to observe pulmonary lesions, detect wet/dry weight ratio and the activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO), the expressions of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) mRNA and MyD88 mRNA as well as the expressions of TLR2, MyD88, NF-κB p65 and p-NF-κB p65 in lung tissue. Results There were different degrees of alveolar septal destruction, obvious pulmonary interstitial edema, the infiltration of inflammatory cell, the exudationred of blood cell in the mesenchyme, and the collapse of partial alveolar in the model group and the NA, NB, NC, ND groups. In terms of wet/dry weight ratio, the score of lung tissue injury, the activity of MPO, the expressions of TNF-α, TLR2 mRNA and MyD88 mRNA as well as the expressions of TLR2, MyD88, NF-κB p65 and p-NF-κB p65 in lung tissue, the model group were significantly higher than the sham group (P<0.01); there was no significant difference between the ND group and the model group (P>0.05). The corresponding test values of the nalmefene groups with post-ischemic treatment showed the characteristics of ND group> NC group> NB group> NA group (P<0.01). Conclusion The effect of nammefene on alleviating lung ischemia-reperfusion injury is closely related to the inhibition of TLR2, MyD88, NF-κB p65 and phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 with a characteristic of time-dependent manner.

  • Role of Kupffer cells in ischemia-reperfusion injury during liver transplantation

    ObjectiveTo Analyze the relationship between Kupffer cells (KCs) and ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) during liver transplantation.MethodThe relevant studies in recent years on the KCs in the hepatic IRI during the liver transplantation were collected and summarized.ResultsSome recent studies had shown that both the congenital immunity and adaptive immunity were closely related to the occurrence and development of hepatic IRI and the activation of KCs. The KCs were the resident macrophage of the liver and played the key role in the aseptic inflammatory injury. The KCs could secrete various pro-inflammatory factors to aggravate the liver cell injury. On the other hand, the KCs could also improve the hepatic IRI by upregulating anti-inflammatory factors.ConclusionsHepatic IRI can activate the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system to cause the sterile inflammatory response of damaged liver cells. During hepatic IRI, the activated KCs can secrete pro-inflammatory factors and anti-inflammatory factors to play the dual roles of injury and protection.

  • Research progress on acute lung injury and lung protective strategies by cardiopulmonary bypass

    Acute lung injury is a kind of common complication after cardiopulmonary bypass. Acute lung injury is attributed to the ischemia-reperfusion injury and systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Several factors common in cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass may worsen the risk for acute lung injury including atelectasis, transfusion requirement, older age, heart failure, emergency surgery and prolonged duration of bypass. Targets for prevention of acute lung injury include mechanical, surgical and anesthetic interventions that aim to reduce the contact activation, systemic inflammatory response, leukocyte sequestration and hemodilution associated with cardiopulmonary bypass. We aim to review the etiology, risk factors and lung protective strategies for acute lung injury after cardiopulmonary bypass.

    ObjectiveTo observe the protective effect of tanshinone Ⅱ A on the mouse liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) model and preliminarily explore its mechanism of alleviating liver injury.MethodsThe IRI mouse model was established after the pre-treating with tanshinone Ⅱ A. Then, the serum and liver tissue of mice were collected to detect the changes of liver function, histopathology, liver cell apoptosis, and inflammatory factors. In addition, the protein expression levels of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), advanced glycosylation end-product specific receptor (RAGE), and Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) in the liver tissues were detected by the Western blot method.ResultsAll data were analyzed by the homogeneity of variance test. The results of factorial design showed that the levels of ALT and AST in the serum, the pathological score and apoptosis index, the inflammatory response, as well as the expressions of HMGB1, TLR4 and RAGE proteins in the liver tissues were decreased significantly (P<0.05) in the sham operatation plus tanshinone Ⅱ A mice, which were increased significantly (P<0.05) in the IRI mice, which were antagonized synergistically by the tanshinone ⅡA and IRI (P<0.05).ConclusionsTanshinone ⅡA could reduce the liver IRI and inflammatory response in mouse. These effects might be related to the down-regulations of TLR4, HMGB1, and RAGE expressions.

  • Protective Effect of Resveratrol on Intestinal Mucosal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Rats with Severe Acute Pancreatitis

    Objective To observe the influence of resveratrol on superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) of intestinal mucosal ischemia-reperfusion injury protection in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Fifty-four rats were divided into three groups randomly: sham operation group (SO group), SAP model group (SAP group) and resveratrol-treated group (Res group). SAP model was made by injecting sodium taurocholate 50 mg/kg to pancreatic bile duct and resveratrol was given intravenously at 5 min after inducing SAP model. The rats were sacrificed at 3 h, 6 h and 12 h after inducing SAP model respectively by equal number. The levels of MDA, SOD, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 and histological changes of small intestine were measured. Results The level of MDA in small intestine tissue in SAP group was significantly higher than that in SO group (P<0.05), while the activity of SOD was significantly lower in the relevant tissues (P<0.05). The expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in SAP group were higher than those of SO group (P<0.05). The activity of SOD in small intestine tissue in Res group was significantly higher than that in SAP group (P<0.05); while the level of MDA was significantly lower in the relevant tissues (P<0.05). The expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in Res group were lower than those of SAP group (P<0.05). Conclusions Oxygen free radicals are concerned with the process of pathological changes in intestinal mucosal ischemia-reperfusion in rats with SAP. Resveratrol might increase SOD activity and decrease MDA level to attenuate lipid peroxidation in small intestine of SAP, and reduce the expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in intestine, thus diminish the damage of the intestine in SAP. And it acts as a protective effect to small intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

  • Research progress on preventions of ischemia-reperfusion injury during kidney transplant

    During kidney transplant, the non-specific inflammatory response induced by ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) will lead to decreased survival ability of transplanted kidney. However, the effect of IRI on long-term survival rate of allograft is not sure. Here we illuminated the relationship between early IRI and decreased long-term survival ability of allograft by retrospectively analyzing the clinical evidences and laboratory investigations. Previous studies showed that early IRI resulted in the graft loss through reduction of renal functional mass, vascular injury, chronic hypoxia and subsequent fibrosis. IRI was also one of the main factors to induce dysfunction of transplanted kidney and acute rejection reaction, and to decrease the allograft survival. Therefore, it’s better to substitute traditional methods with novel measures during kidney transplant which may relieve the renal IRI much better.
