Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of aloe polysaccharides (AP) pre-emptive treatment on the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB),ntercellulor adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and cell apoptosis in hippocampal brain tissue in rats with severely hemorrhagic shock for the first time of entering high altitude.Methods Forty healthy male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly (random number) divided into 5 groups (n =8 each):sham group,shock group and AP group which was further divided into 3 subgroups as per different dosages of AP administered (AP1:0.75 mg/kg; AP2:1.50 mg/kg; AP3:3.00 mg/kg).Rats in sham group were treated with surgical procedure without exsanguination.Rats in shock group were exsanguinated until hemorrhagic shock emerged without resuscitation.Rats in AP subgroups were intravenously infused with given doses of AP in different AP subgroups at 30 min before hemorrhagic shock.MAP was dropped to (35 ±5) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) in 15 min by bleeding from femoral artery,the mean arterial pressure (MAP) was maintained at (35 ±5) mmHg for 60 min with bleeding or re-transfusing.At 3 h after resuscitation,rats were sacrificed immediately by bleeding,and the hippocampus of brain was harvested on the ice.The expressions of NF-κB and ICAM-1 in the hippocampus of rats were determined by immuno-histochemical method,and number of cell apoptosis in the hippocampus of rats was determined by TUNEL.The means were compared with analysis of variance and Student-NewmanKeuls test,and statistical significance was established at a P value of less than 0.05.Results Compared with sham group,the expressions of NF-κB (5.03 ±0.42),ICAM-1 (4.14 ±0.29) and number of cell apoptosis (44.3 ± 7.2) in hippocampal tissue were significantly increased in shock group (P < 0.05).There were no significant differences in these three variables between shock group and AP1 group.Compared with shock group,the expressions of NF-κB (3.12 ±0.34),ICAM-1 (2.93 ±0.21) and number of cell apoptosis (24.8 ± 3.6) in hippocampal tissue were significantly decreased in AP2 group (P < 0.05).There were no significant differences in these three variables between AP2 and AP3 groups.Conclusion AP pre-emptive treatment can significantly attenuate the expressions of NF-κB,ICAM-1 and number of cell apoptosis in hippocampal tissue in hemorrhagic shock rats.
