Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression profile of macrophage inhibitory factor (MIF) in heart and renal tissues of sepsis mice. Method The sepsis model was established by Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) in mice. Thirty male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into five groups: sham operation group, the twelfth hour, twenty-forth hour, thirty-sixth and forty-eighth hour group after CLP. MIF mRNA were semiquantitat-ed by the reverse transcription polyraerase chain reaction(RT-PCR), Western Blotting was used for MIF protein. The measured data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA. Results MIF mRNA and protein expressions in heart tissue signifiantly increased at the twelfth hour, peaking at the thirty-sixth hour, and a high level was maintained till the forty-eighth hour after CLP. But in the kidney tissue of models, the content of MIF reached peak at the twenty-forth hour and started to decrease at the forty-eighth hour after CLP. Conclusions The content of MIF in heart and kidney tissues of sepsis models was higher than that in the sham group, especially from the twelfth hour to forty-eighth hour after CLP. It indicates that MIF as a kind of late cytokine might participate in dysfunction of organs in mice with sepsis.
