Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of remifentanil postconditioning and combined remifentanil-prupofol postconditioning on liver ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods Thirty male SD rats weighing 220-280 g were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =6 each):group sham operation (group Ⅰ ) ; group I/R (group Ⅱ ) ; group propofol postconditioning (group Ⅲ ) ; group remifentanil postconditioning (group Ⅳ ) and group combined propofol-remifentanil postconditioning (group Ⅴ ).In groups Ⅱ- Ⅴ the hepatic arteries and veins of middle and left were occluded for 30 min.In groups Ⅲ-Ⅴ propofol ( at 30 mg· kg- 1 · h - 1 ) and/or remifentanil (at 1 μg· kg- 1 · min- 1 ) were infused iv at the onset of reperfusion for 1 h.Blood samples were taken at the end of 1 h reperfusion for determination of serum AST,ALT activities and IL-8,IL-10 concentrations.The animals were sacrificed after blood sampling.Liver specimens were obtained for determination of c-fos and c-jun expression in liver cells by immuno-histochemistry and microscopic examination with scanning electron microscope.Results Liver I/R significantly increased serum AST and ALT activities and IL-8 and IL-10 concentrations and c-fos and cjun expression in liver ceils in group Ⅱ as compared with group Ⅰ.The serum AST and ALT activities,IL-8 concentration and the c-fos and c-jun expression in liver cells were significantly lower.and the serum IL-10 concentration was significantly higher in groups Ⅲ- Ⅴ than in group Ⅱ,but there were no significant differences among the groups Ⅲ - Ⅴ.The histo-pathological changes in the liver tissue were significantly attenuated in groups Ⅲ- v as compared with group Ⅱ.Conclusion Postconditioning with remifentanil and/or propofol can attenuate liver I/R injury by inhibiting inflammatory response and apoptosis in the liver cells,but there is no significant difference in the protective effects induced by postconditioning with remifentanil or propofol alone or in combination.
