Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of UTI (Ulinastatin) preconditioning on gene expression profiles of spleen tissue in septic rats by DNA microarray technology. Methods Forty-five male Wistar rats were equally divided into sham group,sepsis group and UTI group by means of random number table.In UTI group the rats were treated with intramuscular injection of UTI( 105 U/kg) one hour before cecal ligation and puncture.In sepsis group and sham group intramuscular balanced solution (5 ml/kg) was given.Cecal ligation and puncture was used to reproduce septic rat model. Gene expression profile was studied by using RatRef-12 Rat gene expression profile microarray to detect the changes in gene expression pattern of rat spleen tissue after cecal ligation and puncture.Then using related computer software was used to screen and analyze the relationship between the Sepsis/UTI group and sham group. Results In 22 523 genes,205 differential genes were found between sepsis group and sham group,accounting for 0.910％.Among them 98 genes were up-regulated,with 48 known functional genes and 32 genes only showed in this group;107 genes were down-regulated,with 64 known functional genes and 34 genes only showed in it.197 differential genes were found in UTI group and sham group,accounting for 0.875％.Among them 114 genes were up-regulated,with 35 known functional genes and 19 genes only showed in this group; 83 genes were down-regulated,with 49 known functional genes and 19 genes only showed in it. Conclusions Abnormal expression of genes in the spleen tissue of rats with sepsis owing to excessive inflammation and immune suppression were partly relieved by UTI preconditioning.UTI pretects spleen at genetic level.
