Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the changes in the expression of aquaporin-8 (AQP8) in intestinal mucosa in pigs with hemorrhagic shock.Methods Sixteen Bama miniature pigs,weighing 22-25 kg,were equally and randomly divided into sham operation group (group S) and hemorrhagic shock group (group HS).The animals were fasted for 8 h before operation.The animals were anesthetized with propofol 3 mg/kg injected via the auricular vein,and tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated.In group S,the femoral artery and internal jugular vein were only cannulated.In group HS,the femoral artery and internal jugular vein were cannulated for blood pressure and mean arterial pressure monitoring and blood sampling.Hemorrhagic shock was then induced by removing 40 percent of blood volume over 15 min.Before anesthesia (T0),and at 30 min and 1.0,1.5,2.0,3.0 and 4.0 h after the end of blood-letting (T1.6),blood samples were collected for determination of serum D-lactate and intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) concentrations.After blood sampling at T6,the pigs were sacrificed,and intestinal specimens were obtained for microscopic examination and for determination of AQP8 cotent in intestinal mucosa (by ELISA).The water content of intestines was calculated by wet/dry weight ratio.Results Compared with group S,the serum D-lactate concentrations at T2-6,I-FABP concentrations at T1-6,and water content of intestines were significantly increased,and the cotent of AQP8 was up-regulated at T6 in group HS.No changes were found in the intestinal mucosa in group S.In group HS,severe damage to the intestinal mucosa was found,and bleeding,inflammatory cell infiltration,and epithelial cell necrosis were observed.Conclusion The mechanism of hemorrhagic shock-caused damage to intestines is related to up-regulated expression of AQP8 in intestinal mucosa in pigs.
