Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of propofol combined with resveratrol on hepatic ischemiareperfusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods One hundred and eight male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 6-7 weeks,weighing 220-270 g,were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =18 each):sham operation group (group S) ; I/R group; solvent group (group TW-80) ; propofol group (group P) ; resveratrol group (group R) ; propofol combined with resveratrol group (group P + R).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 10 ％ chloral hydrate 3.5-4.0 ml/kg.Liver ischemia was produced by clamping the first hepatic portal for 30 min,followed by 12 h reperfusion.In group P,propofol was infused intravenously at 10 mg· kg-1 ·h-1 starting from 10 min before ischemia until the end of operation.In group R,resveratrol 10 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 10 min before ischemia.In group P + R,resveratrol 10 mg/kg was injected intravenously and then propofol was infused intravenously at 10 mg· kg-1· h-1 starting from 10 min before ischemia until the end of operation.The equal volume of normal saline was given instead in groups S and I/R,and the equal volume of TW-80 was given instead in group TW-80.Six rats in each group were chosen at 3,6 and 12 h of reperfusion and blood samples were taken from the superior and inferior vena cava for measurement of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate amino transferase (AST) activities.The rats were then sacrificed and livers were removed for microscopic examination and for determination of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities,inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression,and malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) contents in liver tissues.Results Compared with group S,the serum ALT and AST activities,and MDA and NO contents,MPO activity and iNOS expression in liver tissues were significantly increased,and the activities of SOD were decreased in the other four groups (P ＜0.05).Compared with group I/R,the serum ALT and AST activities,and MDA and NO contents,MPO activity and iNOS expression in liver tissues were significantly decreased,and the activities of SOD were increased in groups P,R and P + R (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with groups P and R,SOD activity was significantly increased,and the other parameters were decreased in group P + R (P ＜ 0.05).The pathological changes were significantly attenuated in groups P,R and P + R compared with group I/R.Conclusion Pretreatment with propofol and resveratrol can attenuate hepatic I/R injury in rats by increasing antioxidation and inhibiting lipid peroxidation and reducing production of endogenous NO,and the combination of the two agents provides better efficacy than etheir alone.
